[Epic Final BossFight [PIXEL DAY 2023]]

This felt very nostalgic! Lots of nice touches from different sound fonts and overall great composition. I especially enjoyed the slower part at around 1:00 to 1:20.

[Metal Gear Solid Tribute]

This is awesome for your first submission!

You got all of the correct notes and cords from what I hear, and the programs you used sounded pretty darn good too. Nice work with slight adjustments from the original. The only thing I would suggest is more dynamic range. Other than that it was SOLID!

[Colin's Victory]

Whoaaa!

The quality of this song is incredible! I love the trumpet playing the main melody and then it gets to that sort of Irish part with the heavy drums which was a neat little bit you added in! All of the instruments just fit so perfectly. Nice job overall!

[Where Credit is Due (Sonic 3)]

Superb!
There are a lot of things I liked about this piece.

First, is that you didn't start the song with the usual intro which made it interesting right from the start.
Second, is the quality and tone of the instruments. Whatever music program you use sounds awesome.
Third, is how gentle you've remixed this piece in comparison to the original. You took out those hit sounds from the original which I loved, but in this piece the lack of percussion work so well.
Finally, is the beautiful blend of instruments you chose that gave me a sort of heaven like feeling.

Keep up the great work! I'm looking forward to more remixes from you!

[Tag Power!]

Excellent choice of instruments for this. Love the rich orchestra sound at the main chorus/melody part. I also did a remix of this with classic instruments. Please check it out. Keep up the good work!

[Advance wars - super CO power]

Nice job! It kind of reminds me of Final Fantasy music with the trumpet sounds. It also reminds me of a modern concert band with some guitar and bass shredding. Pretty cool stuff.

[Suicide Rescue]

Very moving.

I love the story. I envisioned it perfectly in my head as the song played too. You've got great musical talent and know how to dig deep into a persons' emotions with each different instrument. If you live in New Jersey I'd be more than happy to help you make this epic song into some sort of action film along with S-Ops who can do the 3D stuff.

thank you! i love it to create stories, i also write but in italian for now. That's where i live XD

[NP - Sushi Date]

This is so relaxing!

Like someone below me posted, it's as if the sun is rising in the morning. Very smooth elegant clarinet and strings. I like the percussion instruments you added in there too. Awesome piece.

ProudAardvark responds:

Thanks so much Shade, glad you enjoyed it!

[TiGeR - Susurration]

Awesome track!

I like the slow gradual build up and the video game like sounds toward the middle, and the ending is so sick! I'm using this in one of my YouTube videos. I put the name of the song and your name so other people can check out your awesome music!

TiGeR responds:

Ah, didn't see this review before I responded to your PM. Thanks a lot for using the song, it makes me really happy.

Also I'm really glad you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more stuff in the future!

[Sonic 2 Chemical Plant Metal]

Simply epic.

Nothing too fancy. You stuck to the original rhythm and just added your own instrumentation. I love the re verb on the guitars and such. The guitars really match Chemical Plant well. Nice work!
