[Rise Your Sword]

nice

this was really nice dud
it wasnt really the battle, but the events that led up to it, i felt..
the french horn parts were really mellow
yet gave the song a feeling that something is gonna happen.

great job man keep it up

sorohanro responds:

well, the part with the horn is ment to build the tension before battle, you'r right about that.the battle is when the percussion starts, but is more an... coreography then a battle.i see it more like a fight betwen personalityes, so the finality of battle is way BEFORE they take the swords

[|Toccata and Fugue in D Minor|]

piano?

its not nearly as intense if it were to be played on an organ. its a really nice song tho.
the arpeggiaturas shouldve been slower and more dramatic. and since the organ part had a third staff for the pedal notes, u could done that with octave left hands maybe?
and wheres the fugue? lol

overall that was pretty cool
enjoyed it

Klace responds:

Woah, Winterwind!
I thought you were dead or something :P
You should be submitting more songs.
And I know the songs not perfect since I just started learning it.

[i2 - Eternal Injustice]

that was sweet!

loved the theme
sounded really badass
too bad it was so short lol
u thinkin about eloborating on this song?
w/e nice track man
pce

wwns

[The Dance of Shadows]

and im not even exaggerating the score

where to begin?

Amazingly wonderful theme
1:53 was a nice break into the next section
timpani and bass playing pizzicato was a nice idea.
3:05 was a nice reprise of the piano theme
in a bit more minor way.
ending was awesome
i was expecting it to end by fading the melody
to black but instead
V-I !!! happens which was a nice touch
its sad that the file size limit made u hafta
lower the quality but w/e
its not too bad tho...
the quality i mean, not the song
cuz
the song is amazing
u guys rock.

***PPL, dont forget to check out Simon's page as well...***

once again, u guys rock
great job.
for a 7 month project, this turned out as awesome as i hoped it would

Winter

MusicalRocky responds:

Nice review dude, thanks. Yeah, working with Simon was amazing. I like 1:53 too. Originally it was just a blank measure lol, so it's nice to have that in there. I had some fun with 3:05. It sound more minor cuz it doesn't have the leading tone lol
And it even has some B naturals. Yeah, the ending is awesome too. (V-I...how predictable). Yeah, I think we'll be ok with the bitrate at 96 lol. Quantity over quality yo. Oh wait...

Yeah, people you need to check out Simon's page. He's one of the best, and vastly overlooked.

I'm glad you think we rock haha.

Yep, the 7 months were definitely worth it.

[Duet no. 1 - I. Allegro]

nice

it would be a great etude piece for two instruments as well
ur progressions work very well after the other
if only ppl would start to understand actual
music for its value rather than its quality
quality just makes things fancier and duznt make
the actual song any better than it really is

great song once again
movement 3?

yeah, u better
yo buddy

Winter

MusicalRocky responds:

Lolol. Nice review. Thanks.Yeah, I was thinking about it sounding like an etude too. Yeah, I'm trying to get mvnt 3 ideas lol. I'm glad you liked it (maybe) anyways thanks.

[[Wonder]]

mellow

i love that hi hat
nice and calm
something nice to listen to while making a long walk to somewhere definitely
instrumentation was not bad either
great jarb too

Winterwind-NS

MusicalRocky responds:

lol thanks dude...haha yeah, it is nice and calm. I dunno if I meant to do that

[Khuskan - Prelude in Pi]

nice concept

song isnt bad at all man i like it!
like a few ppl said before it is kinda repetitive.. but not necissarily annoying
nice ending too

worth a download indeed
itd b kinda cool to have pi as ur score

want it? lol jk

WinterWind-NS

btw i posted a new song after like 2 months
so chek it out wen u got time
thanks!

[Mightnight Lullaby]

gentle

I agree with fuoco
I-iii-III minor7th-vi leading into 00:18
was beautiful. Instrumentation would make more
sense if you elaborated more on this song
haha but very soft and nice nonetheless

make more songs
now

[-Orr-Nocturne in C# Minor]

Oh snap

this is a very nice piece indeed
this started off like a piece I've heard before,
just cant remember which
i love when u get into octaves
Sounded like u played it live but not sure if u
did. great ending as well
songs nowadays dont have good endings at all
at first i thought it was a guitar haha till the
right hand came in
how long did it take to compose this piece?

Great job on a very touching piece
beautiful on every level

WinterWind-NS

DavidOrr responds:

Hey buddy! I played this into Reason 3.0 using my MIDI keyboard. I considered playing it live on a piano, but mics always pick up unwanted fuzz and the quality of the recording isn't amazing unless you have some top-notch equipment.

I wrote this piece the night before I had a composition recital for my teacher. I had found out that day that I had to play an original composition in it, and so I wrote this.

Glad you enjoyed it!

[Introduction, Rondo et Scherzo]

hmm

about wut Arbiter said...
"why are the pauses so damn long..." cuz those chords are held by a fermata. I'm guessing u dont know the basics of music or sumthing cuz thats pretty simple stuff. It's cool man we all learn from somewhere.
Personally I didnt find it too predictable
I love how u went from ur intro to ur rondo then to ur other themes it was awesome dude.
ur ending was nice too. That final tremolo (haha) wouldve sounded better if it was sustained but i guess that's klace's fault (lol jk klace)

all in all nice jarb dude
keep it up
5/5 from me duh

WinterWind-NS

MusicalRocky responds:

Fermata lol.

I'm surprised you spelled predictable right (lol jk). Thanks, I tried to have it very varied (haha) stylistically. Yeah, I tried to be all over the place with switching between themes. Glad that worked out. I almost didn't put that tremolo in. It was just a big chord harmoniously between the two hands. But then I was like "I want a coolio tremolo" lol. Yeah, I had it sustained in Noteworthy.

Sweet, I tried to do a nice jarb.

Thanks for the 5 dude.
