I liked how it started out with just that strumming and you slowly added a little bit of background effect, I always love to hear great stacking like that, I definitely can feel both the Turkish influence and the Japanese influence, so good points on that. And the "hwua!" stuff in the background plays out nicely, adding to the piece rather than taking away from the main melody. Actually, I could see this in something like Rise of Nations, haha. Very well done.

I'm glad you thought the hwua! screaming added to rather then take away, they were an area of debate with myself. I love the effect they have no the piece, yet at the same time due to the pieces somewhat quick nature, having something distract the listener for 2-3 seconds like that might throw them off track... still I think it worked out nicely!
Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!

I loved the smoothness of it. Sounds like you could compose songs for a musical or something. But it definitely had an ending of the day feel, makes me think of the ending of some show on TV. Would you ever think about doing songs for a production or something?

Thank you very much. Right now I don't know what I am going to aim my musical talents toward, I am still sorting out everything in my life and deciding what to do.

It was alright. But it sounded like you just used garageband with a background and then played around with the in program keyboard. That's what you did....didn't you? Try using a real instrument, or configure around some loops. It'll make it sound much better. i just can't stand it when people do this kind of stuff with GB. Sorry man, try again.

I did use a real instrument! I didn't even have my mac yet when I made this song! I had audacity and my gateway laptop and a Casio keyboard. It was my first song. I didn't know much about recording then. My later songs such as Emerald Sea (Uploading today) was recorded with garage band. I don't use the program keyboard and NEVER will. I still used my Casio keyboard!

I wouldn't call it DnB though. But it had a good lead in, slow intro, good "stacking" of sounds and instruments, and whatever that audio clip of the voice was, was pretty nice as an effect.

Thanks. This is a pretty weird track, kinda hybrid.

I loved the intro, absolutely. It was a lead up to the main body, just as it should be. All the tracks meshed well together, the strings were in just the right pitch range, and the kind of mixing of genres created an interesting effect, also used by Jesper Kyd in games such as Assassin's Creed, and Harry Gregson Williams in the Metal Gear solid games. Hehe...PS: The Master Volume was too low =P (Jk, look back at Lounge Act (mine) if you don't remember)

Such a great song. Balance of all elements, tons of changes constantly, but still a real rhythm and so much motion in the backgrounds. One of the best songs ever made on here.

Oaksville, Smokesville, Jokesville. Nice. Pretty good. Even if it's a joke, good sound quality.

Simple melody. And it definitely could be put to lyrics, just...maybe without whatever that melody instrument is. Sounds like some monk flute or something, lol

I know, sadly that's all GB has to offer me when I put it on there. It's the only way for me to put it in MP3
