Winterwind-NS's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[_-=[Remembering a Dream]=-_]

wonderful

only thing i would want outta this song would
be a more introductory beginning
:14 sounds like a wrong note that u mightve put
in by accident? or was the dissonance intentional?
the strings in the bg would be better more
legato, and have the chords melt into each other

nice otherwise

WinterWind

MaestroSorrow responds:

Legato you say eh, Ironically I found a soundfont with the legato strings that would have made this song a good deal better, unfortunatly, the songs up, and I have no intention of bringing it back from the grave I buried it in (ie, Newgrounds)

the dissonance was intentional in this case, to emulate the emotion of struggle, and uncoordinated feelings.

Thanks for the review man ^^.

[Anime Spirit]

nice

the use of dissonance between the piano and the soft strings are nice, the ambience fills the speakers well but, the melody is a bit too repatitive, moving away from the melody into a another theme would be nice :)
but ur samples (or refills?) are very nice...
great job dude
cant wait to hear more from you

WinterWind

Valerius-Blackthorne responds:

Thank you for your review! They're hard to come by. I agree, it is repetitive. I was doing work with various loops and went a little crazy but something about the way it was working out kept pushing me to add more and more to it. I'm glad you enjoyed the piece and again, thanks for the review! I'll make my next piece less repetitive but my forte' isn't exactly classical if you check my history of submissions. Everything seems favorable so maybe I'll make another.

[The Final Movement]

This is beautiful

You sir, have a wonderful, creative mind :)
You handle the piano part very well
the (timpani?) is playing notes a bit too low
i think, because it sounds wet.

Sorry i didnt review this wen it was first
uploaded, prolly cuz of the 0 voters who knocked
it down the list. Well, you're higher than
my song now... happy? ;P jk
personally i dont appreciate my song much.

The wetness of the low timpani note actually
fit well as the final note.

This song most definetly stirs up the human
emotions of hope, sorrow, anguish, its just
brilliant. tho u couldve moved a bit away from
the repetitive quarter note strings.
Maybe, like, you couldve had the same melody, but
with different rhythms. I love also how u have
the low contrabasses supporting the weightless
piano sound.

Another thing i like about this is how its
actually lengthy (altho the quality had to suffer
a bit :P)
im tired of 1-2 minute songs lol

i can't imagine how amazing the stuff u would
produce would be if u actually had theoretical
knowledge of music. I hope you intend to take
a few theory classes...

That's enuff review for you :)
great job on a tremendously striking piece
This really caught me off guard
Congradulations my friend. You're there

WinterWind
p.s if i find me a 0-voter, ill personally go to his/her house, and eat ther computer. lol
yeeeeeeah....

MilkMan-Dan responds:

Always wonderful to recieve Reviews from you Winterwind. Always completely honest and helpful.

As for this piece scoring higher... well... yours is higher now... where it should be. Since we both know you are on a MUCH higher caliber than me. What with all that theory and works of perfection. Unfortunitley... I never plan to take theory in my life. This is solely for one basic reason.

I love knowing that the music is forever mine. Not passed onto me from teacher to student... it is mine to master. I may not create perfect and wonderful elaborate pieces like you, but I will always have that special feeling that I did it on my own.

Your right... the timpani was too low. My bad... I was in a rush with the timpani... kinda regret it now.

I just wish I had a program... where I can take my USB enabled keyboard... plug it into my computron... and use proffesional sounding instruments, instead of my limited strings collection on my keyboard. Bah!... wish I knew what program to get.

Anyways... thankyou winterwind for taking the time to review :). I voted zero on a stolen piece once?... am I a bad person?

[Prelude no1 Lento ma non]

Nice

I just wish u would make this longer lol
people on NG tend to not review unless
they have a lengthy song to listen to and
enuff things to say about the song.

I love you Username
FIRE!! hehe i have a song with that word...
My Nocturne no. 7 Allegro con Fuoco
give it a check.
i really like this piece man!

i love the dotted eighths against the left
hand eighth note arpeggios. its really nice.
im gonna bookmark this page cuz i really feel
as tho u have the potential to make some
fantastic music.

NG needs more ppl like us!!!
im me
my aim sn is JustBlaze981
i have garritan too and that wut i use
for my piano songs as well.

Talk to u soon

WinterWind

Fuoco responds:

Great! WinterWind just reviewed my song :D
LOL, yeah! It's a cool username. I was thinking on PETROSALPINGOSTAFILINO (a part of the esfenoides bone) but its too long. So Fuoco came out just well.
Actually, I took Fuoco from your song :p
Allegro con Fuoco.

Man! You make me feel good by saying that, that I have potential.
Too bad I don't have much time to dedicate to music (Medicine school, it's a 25 hours per day for study, or so they say, its more like 8/24/6 for me :p)

All right, I'll IM you.

Thanks for such a great review.

[_-=[A Kingdom for Alan]=-_]

dude

u disappeared again
wtf get back online lol
we need to start wrking on
our song for ACM. cmon dude
are u on vacation or sumthin?

yeah and nice song too

WinterWind

MaestroSorrow responds:

not on vacation, but I already told you what was up.

Thanks for the review.

[Fighting for Your Life--Battle]

wow!

thats impressive
has a very VG feel to it indeed
the snare drum keeps the power feel
to it and the brass is cool
not sure wut the guy before me was talking
about, the instruments arent overpowering
at all lol. therefore, clarity=10
why did u mix it down at 80 kbps tho?
its only a minute and a half
some parts sounded a bit dissonant
for example the soft french horn that comes
in half of 00:06. when it goes
A, Bb, B (ascending of course). i hope
u know wut i mean lol
that guitar sounding thing was nice too
fantastic job, i hope ur getting paid for this
haha

Keep it up, nice to see that ur posting
again.

WinterWind

SuperTonic64 responds:

lol! I finally understand what you mean! :D *is absent minded*

I'm sorry it took me so long to get back to you. I haven't even had much time to get much music done for the past couple of weeks.

Nah, I ain't getting paid for my music, yet. I hope someday I will be able to get a piece of my music published, but that will take time. :D

Thanks for the review! I'll get to posting more stuff soon. :)

[[Empty Darkness]]

meloncholic

very nice my friend
this is nice, tho i prefer you
shadow waltz better
that part when u had quarter notes
starting on a high note, and then descending
with a chord getting bigger
sounded kinda impossibel lol
good over all tho

WinterWind

MusicalRocky responds:

Yes, I know the exact part you are talking about. I tried playing that part on the piano...didn't go so well lol. I'm glad you liked this song. I prefer Shadow Waltz too, probably over all of my others :) Thanks for taking the time to review.
