Perfect looping

If you wanted to make a full song out of it go ahead, but this is a great loop as it is. It wouldn't be long enough to use for a long time as it would get repetitive quickly, but if someone wanted it to loop one or two times then this would be a perfect loop for a movie or game.

I can actually see this being used in some sort of happy running scene. Where a character is just way too happy and is bouncing/bounding down the street. Then something like white noise could suddenly appear and something bad could happen, changing the song to something more dangerous or heavy.

Even though that's what it made me think of perhaps you could take that idea and implement it in the full version of the song. It would give the feeling of a happy day where nothing could go wrong, but things quickly change. Or you could just stick with it's happy nature as it is.

So yeah, would be great for many situations in a flash, but if someone wanted to use it for longer scenes then you should make it a tad bit longer and add just a little bit of variety in the middle to mix it up. Ok, that's all I'm going to be able to say about this piece. It gets quite annoying after it loops 20 times in a row. :P

Hehe, I like your idea man. I think I might just use it in the longer version :)

I'll get rid of those bells though, I agree that this loop gets annoying.

Like with most of your pieces I really just don't know what to say. Most aren't anything too great and this is just another so so piece that I really wouldn't mind if I had ever heard in the first place or not. The quality is great like the rest of your pieces.

The thing about this piece is that it just doesn't entertain me or make me feel anything. Even for a dance type song it took me about 4 listens before I even started moving my head. A dance song should want to make people move right away and not stop moving...

Perhaps since it's a bit generic and I tend to hear the same sounding things over and over I just got bored with it. The song itself actually loops pretty good and might be something useful for a game or a menu.

You happen to be my 2,000 total review. (counting both flash and audio reviews) I know that has nothing to do with your song, but I thought you might want to know. :P

The song starts off a bit slow, but it is almost a good way to bring people in and build up for the final part that you had. Personally though if I was an impatient person I would have probably listened to the first minute and got quite bored of it. Perhaps a little spice in the beginning or middle somewhere could help prevent this.

It loops perfectly! I had no clue it was a loop until I went back and noticed that I was half way through the song again. So great job on making such a good loop. It is something that I wouldn't mind listening to over and over again. I actually listened to it three times while writing this review. Good job all around.

This track is buildup a bit the same as 'Rainroad' it keeps a drag on a easy listening riff and builds toward the climax.

Most of my music (with some exceptions ofcourse) is meant to loop and i try to do so in a manner that isnt noticed right away so i guess that one worked. :)

I dont know about impatient persons, but persons do need to understand my work is a rather custom melodical style, most often the real music is either in the total, like in the structure (not to mistake for pattern) (of the melody) while most of todays 'popular musics 'music' is in the chords being repeated. (thank god there is still jazz and folk and accoustic classical music around aswell) When i repeat in music its always to set a tone to change the direction of the melody. Instead of repetition therefore i call it drag, because it makes it drag toward the melody, perhaps tedious.. but intentional. With electronical instrumentation, i guess i just like the sound of it and its a bit nostalgic since i threw 2 years of my life into sitting on the floor in front of a tv and a console to make music, yea.. till i got a couch and spended another 2 slightly upgraded. :)

Thanks for the review.

I like how you change it up when you really slowed it down and then sped it up there as a transition. (Around a minute and twenty seconds) You use something similar again later which makes it a little overdone though. I suggest only using the first one to really maximize the effect that it has on the listener.

Other then that don't change a thing. This was really good. There was such a mix of genres and sounds in here that I was excited to see what was coming next. At the same time you never got too wild or busy in the song.

So great job. Other than my one suggestion I thought it was really good. Keep up the good work.

got it man. ill think about the 2nd time around--if i lengthen the buildup i dont think it's a problem, cuz the reason i put the break there is to build up even more tension since the onset of hte next beat becomes even less predictable. i'll see what i can do, thank you for the constructive review, and expect me back soon ;)

I really enjoyed this because it was so different. You really made it sound original and made it your own. I almost expected it to have a creepy sound to it, but it really never got too creepy to give me the feeling.

I think that it has a lot of variety and never really gets boring in my opinion. It must be hard to get reviews that disagree like mine does with Haggard, but I really like it the way it is. If you wanted to build off of it just make sure you don't lose it's originality.

0 bombed hard huh? I don't think this deserves to be under a 2.00 so let's see what we can do here... Hm, 2.5 is much better then a 1.9 :P

The song isn't too bad, but I think that it's major flaw is that it just takes too long to get going. The voices in the beginning are good, but then it's just a very repetitive song for quite awhile. It isn't until most of the way through the song until you change some things up and add variety to it.

The voices could be used more than just the generic start and ending voices. I pretty much predicted exactly where they were going to be used. So overall, it takes off too slowly and the voices could be used in a more original way. The song itself was pretty decent when it got started though.

thanks, i actually stretched it out to make it longer but now i see it was a mistake,about the voices...i didn't have any other ideas for it. Bye.

I really liked how it started out, but after that it really didn't do too much to keep me interested in the song. The part around 50 seconds seemed really out of place and I didn't like it at all. Instead of doing that and going back to the same old same old for the rest of the song it could have been a place where you added on to it and really started to have it be interesting.

More variety is the key to this submission in my opinion. I can see it starting like it's normal self and then picking up a bit, but not too much. Then to the end it could go back to the original concept again and then have a little fade out at the end to put it all together.

The song did have a good creepy feeling to it though. I could see it for a horror related movie or flash. Probably somewhere in the credits or in the introduction, but small sections in the background might be pretty good too because of how it's pretty ambient.

Overall, I didn't enjoy it too much. It had it's weak points and it had it's strong points. A nice creepy feel to it, but it really lacked variety.

Audio Review Number 1,000 :)

I'll start off with my only complaint if you could even consider it that. The very first vocals that you use kind of got drowned out by the music. After listening again I clearly heard what it said so perhaps it was just the fact that I wasn't ready for vocals to be used.

Hm, perhaps add the lyrics to your author comments? The vocals and lyrics were by far the best part of the submission in my opinion. I think you used just enough were they were getting repetitive and there wasn't a need for anymore of them.

The music behind the vocals was very good as well and would have probably done good without the vocals. In my opinion though the vocals really add to it so don't think that I'm saying to take them away or anything. :P

Overall, a very nice song where the vocals really add a lot to it. Nice pace and beat all the way through.

I can really see this song being used for several different things and it also allows the listener to create their own mental image of what they are listening to. For example when I listened to this song I thought of Native Americans and hopefully people can see why I thought that.

This would be great for the use of an opening scene in a flash or movie where they were switching from scene to scene of different things or panning across a landmass of mountains or something of the sort.

I don't think I can see it being used in the middle of a movie or as a song in the movie, but it could really be used for the credits. Especially after a somewhat sad story or ending to the story.

An all around good piece, which I find has many uses and allows the listener to create a lot of images.
