Ending sequence. That's what comes to mind. A hero walking home from a long journey.
"Good days ahead"

Yes that would really fit with that type of scene in my head. It has a bit of that melancholic but hopeful feel to it, which I personally really like. I find it interesting how you work with motifs. You're using one building-block of music and using the other instrument to mimic what the lead instrument is doing, which makes it sound coherent.

This will be going on my mp3-player :-)

Ragekaje responds:

Thanks for the review!
Now that you mention it, it definitely has the tone of music that would play for a credits roll, final cutscene, etc. "Ending Sequence" is a perfect description!
I'm not familiar with motifs in music, so perhaps I stumbled into that one. I will have to research what motifs are and add that to my toolkit.
Early in my writing process, all I had was the main melody for the A section and the chords and drums to go with it. I had a friend take a look and she suggested doing a round with the melody, and it worked really well!
Thanks again for the listen and the review, it brings me joy knowing you liked it! :)

Sounds like something from a Commodore Amiga game. Might very well fit in something like Crusader No Remorse or One Must Fall 2097. You're making me nostalgic to an era of gaming that I didn't even experience!

SentinalMusicInc responds:

Haha! Thank you! I grew up during that amazing gaming era, I played One Must Fall 2097 awhile back once! Pretty fun fighting game imo.

Nice concept for something done in 28 minutes.
This could be more interesting if you added some other melodic stuff in the background that is a bit quicker rhythmically-speaking. (maybe 1/16ths)
It would be even more interesting if you introduced something like a hi-hat pattern halfway during the track.

But ... 28 minutes? Man. That's fast!

That's an odd snare, I've never heard it pitched that high. But it sounds pretty cool and it makes space for the other elements in your mix. Some nice work on the hats too. I like the crescendo that the house-like synth keeps making. It's almost as if it's talking to you lol.
I think the intro might be a bit too empty. I think it would be better if you filled it with a bit more stuff to keep the listeners attention, so they don't click away before the drop. (Or maybe shorten it? Idk)

CreatingVoid responds:

Hey, thanks for the feedback! I'll be sure to take a look at the future songs and I'll keep this in mind! Hope you enjoyed!

New songs on the way!

Has a bit of that early Metallica vibe to it in the beginning.
It sounds like the guitars a bit too much in the background. I'd put that more in the foreground compared to the drums and bass. Did you put reverb over the guitar?

I enjoyed it though! The part at 1:14 was unexpected, but very cool! I'd love to hear more from that last part and hear what it turns into. The drums are nice and trashy, which is what I like in my Heavy Metal.

tansuma1 responds:

Thank you! I'll be sure to expand on this at some point in the future. I will work on making the guitar sound like it is more in the foreground too. I did put a reverb on it, only a slight one though. That's possibly why it sounds like it is in the background. :)

Great mix-down and track all around. You're mixing some really interesting beat-work with that characteristic dark-edge. You should be recognised for your characteristic sound!

Adjeye responds:

Thanks man, never feel like changing the little dark mood I do. I feel like makkng music that way is the only true me.

Wow, nice bit of polyrhythm here. We had to spend about a month learning about polyrhythm at school. Interesting to see you progressing so quickly musically.

Keep at it!

Adjeye responds:

Thanks! Still exploring ways to make my music more intresting!

Glad to see that you're still making music. You've improved significantly since the last time, but are still staying true to what represents your sound (which imo is that dark moody edge).

A shame that I'm the first reviewer ... I hope your track gets more attention.

Adjeye responds:

I don’t care all too much for exposure anymore, I do music for me nowadays. I still find joy in seeing others enjoy it aswel tho, so thanks!

I think the lead line will sound better if it sustains a bit more and is a little bit less detuned.
I like the rest of it a lot. It really has that melancholic sound to it, especially in the breakdown at around 3:00. The breakdown is excellent and so is the payoff.

Now that I think of it, the track has a bit of that Mega Man ZX vibe to it (Green Grass Gradation).
Anyway, good work on this remix. Rainbow Road has always been one of my favourite audio tracks from MK64, thank you for putting the time into making this remix!

I was enjoying this until it suddenly cut off at 0:55 :-(
Haha, oh well... I'll have to buy the album when it comes out.

Nice work!
