Great!

Jupp, thats all I can say here, it fits the mood of the scene perfectly. I count this already in for the game, it fits just perfect (at least in my view). The tune is well for a boss fight, yet it has a funny accent, which is also a big part of castle crashers.

No buggy on the soundsquality, it's top notch material. So all in all I say awesome job and good luck for the contest...Though, I still pwn you all. ;D

5/5

Sweet!

This could be very nice for the beginning of a night based level as the title shows already! I've noticed that the drums are a little weak on this one. I assume they should just underline the gentle feel of the hole tune. A bit strange in my view but all in all they fit. ;)

Overall, another good one there buddy. Btw, you should check ur e-mailz. Little suprise waiting there.

teh 5. Oh and also, if you haven't noticed already, my entry is up on NG now! >:)

Good luck in that contest! :)

MaestroRage responds:

the drums are not meant to be too diverse in this piece, merely as a simple funeral march of sorts. Like you mentioned, just keeps them all together. Though I suppose a bit more variety wouldn't have hurt :/...

In any case, it serves the purpose it was made for, so I figure, it's good as is :D!

Thank you for the review DarksidE! I'm glad you liked it!

Hell yeah!

My fav. game on the PS2. Loved to play it and loved the music! You did a swell job on this remix! Not very diverse but it was still good! Nice work man!

5/5!

Nice one!

I want to be honest with you on this one. I don't like distortion tone at all. I guess it's my personal taste on this. For me, it's a bit too fuzzy but thats just me. Other than that, I can't really say much about this other than "good job". Slow and druggy shit...hey, even bass! ;)

Drums sounded fine but could be a little more up in the mix, just a minor thing anyways so w/e.

Keep it up!

5/5

Extar responds:

I always welcome honesty in these things :D I don't like blaming equipment, so I'll instead blame my ability to set it up, I know what you mean on this distortion, believe me, if I could get a fat Marshall tone then I would. The sound I get when it comes to recording has always been a bit hit and miss.
Glad you appreciated the presence of the bass. I wanted to achieve something really lumbering and menacing with this one so it's good you think I came pretty close to the mark on that one.
I agree, louder drums probably wouldn't hurt.
Thanks for the detailed review! :D

Sweet!

You already know that I love this. It's actionpacked and has this magical flow. A great composition which I could listen to all day long. You even put some bongos in the background? XD I just noticed. lol. Nice going there. The percussion work was intense. Very deep and powerful tone.

I just hope I can come up with some that matches this sweet tune. ;)

Anyways, great entry! Surely one of my favs!

5/5

MaestroRage responds:

Hey DarKsidE555! Thanks for dropping by! I'm more then sure you can, the game needs some freaking sweet metal songs, and i'm sure you are one of few who could deliver! So get yur arse in thar, and grind the axe over the souls of many >:(!!!

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it ^^!

Fucktard! D:<

This is intense...left me speechless...such power, such energy. Damn, this surely is something for an intro or an epic battle. Top 5 stuff for sure. You did a kick ass job my friend and I hate you for that! >:(

I guess my entry won't stand a chance this time, there are just so many good entries in this MAC. Damn you all!

Props for making an awesome entry there David. Everything holds together strongly. No complains!

5/5

DavidOrr responds:

Well, thanks for the support!

There are some great submissions this time around, so dubbing this top 5 material is quite a compliment!

Interesting!

To say at least. Strange beginning. An unanswered phonecall for no reason catched with a tad of wind...Anyways...like stated in the summary, this was fairly interesting. The soundquality of the tune was on a high level for sure and I enjoyed the changes you did thar. A bit repetitive for my taste but it's ambient stuff and it should underline something certain.

The vox were you I assume? They were nice in my opinion, well fitting for an monologue. Overall, I say...Sweet job to this pitbulljones! :)

5/5 from me!

pitbulljones responds:

Hey man many thanks for the review. hehe yea i intended for the long drawn out odd beginning, it's cost me some bit depth just to have it but what the heck. An unanswered phonecall, i'd never have thought that, but imagery is something i want my listeners to take from a tune so thats cool.

I was really worried about the compression involved when mixing this tune down, going down to 96kbps is never good but surprisingly as you have mentioned it's held up, i've had right disasters quality wise before. I suppose it's because a lot of this is midi based, and i've used eq and comp and limiting well, rather than throwing em in just to get volume.

Yea i do make kinda repetitive tunes, it's a problem of mine as i want vocals over the track, which would be the final layer to keep the repetition away a bit, but i have limited vocal talent sadly.

Yep the vocals are me, with my mancunian tones, I did that in one take, on the fly....nice to do a bit of acting as i havn't done in a while. I'm glad you like them, as it was very much a gamble to do it, seems it's paid off.

Thanks yet again for ur words, i'll hit you back as i noticed you have a new tune up.

pitters

Cool!

Liked it. Don't know if it really could fit the CC feel but all in all I say it was very nice composed. Could be something for a bonus stage maybe?

All instruments were adjusted well, so no complains there. Good luck in the contest there man! See ya around!

5/5

NiDeCo responds:

I do think this is my best (at least quality-wise) work up to now.
When I get some more free time (university is hard work >_<) I'll try and make some more music.

Just, thanks man ;)
NDC

Not bad!

Like it. Slow and peaceful. Could surely work as a theme. Another EZdrummer user ey? ;D Well, the drums were ok, could have been adjusted a little more in points of clarity and diversity but they did there job. ;)

The guitar work was nice, played solid and overall a good tone on them. Liked this one!

Good job there man!

5/5

OMG!

This is so n0oblike, totally bullshit. You've failed hard and proven yourself to be teh no0biest no0b of all. I'm teh sry. :(

As for the real review...This was some swell stuff man! I could imagen this tune in a cave themed stage for sure...under teh castle or something. It had a nice upbeat feeling and it was very catchy. I have no complains this time, it even loops right...you moron! >: (

None the less, you won't stand a chance against my entry. lololol. I just hope it loops right. XD

Anyways...5/5 and props to your shitty skillz!

...Music is the way to show your deepest feelings... Not everyone likes metal... FUCK THEM!! kekeke! ^_ ^
