[-Orr- Final Encounter]

SWEET!

Nice electric guitar sounds...which do you use?

Nice hammer-ons and pull-offs. Orchestra makes it happen.

DavidOrr responds:

East West Quantum Leap Ministry of Rock. Takes a bit of work to get an authentic sound guitar, but I think it's great for a synth!

[listening makes it worse]

Lovely

I love the chords used, and the nonharmonic tones (7ths, 9ths) truly make this a beautiful piece! One thing I would comment on is the lack of dynamics with the exception of the very end. This piece is just asking for a climax, and make it longer! I want to hear a main melody that repeats itself, leaving me with a memorable tune in my head. Other than that, this is very expressive and thoughtful. Nicely done! 4/5, 9/10

Stalagmite responds:

yayness! LOL. and thanks a lot! It certainly asks for a climax. Unfortunately i have no set ideas when i Improv. I forget how i played it most of the time. Although i do play ear. so i could just stop being lazy and make a better one by listening to it. :D thanks a lot fdor your reviews kind sir/ess! :D:D:D

[Evil-Dog - Fuck Off And Smile!]

nice!

chord progressions remind me of Sum 41 or New Found Glory

Evil-Dog responds:

New found glory, errr..... :)

[_Dreadnaught_]

NICE!

I wish more people submitted music like this on Newgrounds.

Good choice with the EWQLSO sounds :) (correct me if I'm wrong)
Which program do you use to run them? More importantly, how many gigs of RAM did you need to be able to load all that epic sound at once?

Well done!!

D3vilsheep responds:

I have 4 gigs of RAM technically but can only use 3 since I run XP. I use Cakewalk's Sonar for my MIDI sequencing (when writing orchestral music). Sadly I have no good mastering plugins anymore so I just use the default Cakewalk stuff. You're right on about the EWQL...as a fellow composer should be. Thanks for the kind words. :)
