anything less then 10/10 is a crime.

I've never heard such melodic awesome sweeping! You remind me so much like DragonForce, and I have a huge amount of respect for those bastards!

Did you lose any fingers whilst playing gods gift to man's ears?

Nothing to say or add man, just yes all the way! You get the third 10/10 I have ever given to date :O!

I found it rather amusing to hear an actual blender XD.

One hell of a dirty remix, I don't even know how to begin making one of these! You've single handidly killed music for me with this song >:(!!!

I joke I jest I jibe. Good stuff good stuff.

You'll have to tell me how you went around making this, now i'm really curious!

Keep up the good fight Echoz, 5/5 from me. It also loops damn well!

Score: 8

"Neat"

submission: Strangelove

your voice comes through very clear I can actually understand the lyrics. Well said.

I don't have much to say Birds-Fly-By, but I wanted to give you my support!

Keep up the good fight! The samples were a little strange, but it helped with the whole feel ^^.

submission: The Empire in the Sky

date: January 17, 2007

I felt the kicks were far too overpowering, distorted the song a great deal, but wether this was actually beneficial to the song or not is up to debate. On the one hand I feel that they ruined the flow, yet due to the nature of the song, the deep, distorted hits may have actually furthared the image.

I'm a little iffy about which one I think that kick did, but what I do know is be very careful with it :O!

Melody wise, it's immaculate, truly, very energetic, very hardcore. Definately worthy of being in a video game of sorts. What is your gear, what are you using VST and software wise? That guitar is damn beastly, is that a real guitar?

The percussional was pretty slick, moving, and insistant. Just that kick I have some debating to do.

Slick organ, loved it.

Overall, this easily gets my 5. Good stuff Le-Best, I can see how you progressed by earlier songs, leaps and bounds my good sir, leaps and bloody bounds. I'd like to invite you to check out my works sometime. Keep up the good fight!

"Impressive!"

submission: |-| Destruction |-|

date: January 16, 2007

Pretty damn brutal >:(

It makes me want to kill something, and in an unpleasant way, like rip things apart, skin things alive and the such.

The drums are well made and compliment the guitar well. The guitar itself is screaming rather well, well played indeed. I would say the only problem was I didn't think the quality of the recording was the best, but I understand the scenario, and really without a multi million dollar studio with uber expensive recording software this is as good as it gets, so beyond that, it's bloodtastic!

Well done to both of you! Gets my 5 no problem.

submission: Melancholy Raindrops

date: January 11, 2007

I found the song was quite entertaining! I didn't get a very strong melancholic vibe to be honest, it was more bittersweet, more subdued kind of hopeful happy. There were overtones of sadness don't get me wrong, but I don't think there was enough to constitute the name "Melancholy Raindrops". If anything i'd say that the saddest part was before any of the strings came in and you had the piano progressive chords with the cello, for that segment brought in a sad, lonely feel.

All in all it was a pretty entertaining listen, a tad repetitive but overall ace stuff DarkOtaku, keep up the good fight and keep them coming!

Score: 9

submission: Dance Of Illusions

date: January 7, 2007

I remember long time ago, when I was listening to a lot of midi songs, so unlike some people I have learned to listen past the samples and the actual melody itself.

Injected-Reality, I must say I am quite impressed by this track. The violin swift and sudden notes are very well performed, and are in fact a skill I am training in myself. It is difficult when you do not play the instrument as you cannot fully comprehend how to make it speak fluently. I however feel that you have made it speak rather effectively.

The organ in the background served a great purpose, it really spread the core of menace, of a moonless night. A pitch black sky, shadows dancing around one's mind, soul, and eyes.

There are great overtones of masculinity in this piece, meaning there is a rough, angry tone. Like a subtle rage. Have you seen the Count of Monty Christo (I think it's spelled like that), it reminds me of him, and the insane amount of anger in his soul.

I wonder what would it sound like if you had some french horns in there as well. It would in my opinion give it a more angry, subtle feel, though it would bleed from it's pure evil core and lean towards the evil destruction side.

In any case, it was a rather neat track, I definitely enjoyed it!

I'd like to invite you to check out my work sometime Injected, keep up the good fight, and keep them coming!

submission: -={CC}=- The Journey Begins

date: January 5, 2007

heh, OCON I must regret to inform you that I am not the other. Though in truth I would be quite happy if I had the ability to create electronic arts like this, I practice, but thus far I still trail behind. One day maybe ;).

In any case the song itself is one that held interest in me. An interesting mix for sure, when that reverbed snare came in the songs core actually changed, whilst keeping the same face. As if you look at somebody and watch their personality dissolve into something new.

I believe that is this song's greatest strength. Without much of a great crash, or momentous roar for sudden change, you guys have managed to alter the song drastically, and that is a skill I can respect.

I felt some bass low end synths in this song, I would have liked it to be louder, so that I could hear it pumpin up the leads :D. The song also loops quite decently.

Overall i'm quite impressed by the work. I don't know who the two of you are (I don't even know if it's just two), but whoever you guys are, you are doing good thus far. I'll keep my eye out on you, keep up the good fight! This gets my 5.

"Very impressive"

submission: Pirates of the Seven Seas p2

date: December 31, 2006

I really really like this opening, that guitar and structure of the song is so smooth, so well flowing, holds a high amount of reserved energy, whilst keeping things relaxed, firm and commanding.

I felt this piece was much clearer, it portrayed a great deal of energy but managed to stay intact much better. I credit this to what I feel is better volume mastering. The quick violins are in the back, with some support violins, and they become loud at the appropriate times.

Great ending btw.

I also hear some more diversity instrument wise, you've got that guitar and flute and that really adds some spice to the piece.

There's really not much to criticize here madboss, I felt this was a very stable, solid piece. A lot of effort went into it, I can hear and appreciate that. easily a 5/5 from me, keep them coming madboss!
