Great!
Really like this. You've got some nice tone going on with the guitars. I think they could use slightly more clarity (it's lacking just a slight bit of airiness). But otherwise your playing and melody is excellent.
Makes me want to whip out my 12 string and compose something with it! Good job.
Badass
This song is badass, just has a really cool, grooving beat. Love it. The mix is always very well done for a live setup.
Great work man!
Thanks a lot, Rottenbeard ...lol...funny name, man...hahahaha
Yea, that sound guy had been at the club for years and years and he had that venue and mixes down pat. It used to be a very cool place for local original acts to play. Then, about a year or two ago, they sold to somebody that named it "The Funk Box"....sorta gross sounding haha...why not just call it "Club Smegma" or something.. ew...That sucked cause it was a dance club and of course, no more un heard of acts. Last I heard, it wasn't doing real well....good. The 8x10 made it for like 15 years like they were...shouldn't try and fix somethin that aint broke. Word.
Actually quite good..
This is actually quite good. Had you used real instruments instead of synth it'd probably be quite popular as an actual rock song.
Your drums have an awesome punchy sound that I really like although they're not terribly realistic sounding.
Overall, this is impressive for a purely sample based song. Well done.
i wish i had something to record real instruments lol, i guess it needs something for the backround to add the ''special'' feeling, well i didnt used the best vsts for this one and it actually way my first attempt to make something rockish, thanks alot for the revieww i appreciate it
Well done
I liked this quite a bit. An interesting mix of styles and patterns. The song stays interesting throughout due to plenty of variation.
Production is also done very well. No real critique, you obviously accomplished what you set out to with this song and it shows. I always enjoy experimental pieces such as this, if only because it's not something we've all heard 1000 times before :).

Interesting mix
This wasn't bad at all. It's obvious you were very much in a mood to experiment. The variation in style, playing and rythm kept the entire piece interesting to the end.
My only gripe is that your drum tracking in the background is physically impossible if it were to be played by a real drummer. Obviously it's done electronically so it's not a big deal, but if you're going for the illusion of a real drummer it doesn't work ;), either way the drumming fit the song so it's no big deal.
You riff near 3/4 mark reminds me of that one song by puddle of mud that I can't remember the name of now.
Anyways, good work!
Well the way i see it someone would be on the drum kit and a different person entirely would have to play the high hat.
Maybe when that person playing the Bass in the beginning can switch over to high hat for the rest of the song. lol
Another great track!
I love your stuff Olivier! Your composition of soundscapes and the progressive nature of them is truly inspiring.
I can only hope you keep making music like this!
Very good!
No complaints with this song. An excellent, plain old rocking song. The production is top notch and the playing, while not very technical, is precise and well done.
The piece flows well. I throughly enjoyed this.
Good work!
Very well done!
This song is very well done. Love all the varied instrumentation.
Only thing keeping it from being truly great is the synthed guitars. A real guitar would've made it just that much better.
Nonetheless, excellent!
Interesting mix..
Interesting. Sounds like a wierd mix between The Moody Blues and lacuna Coil.
I actually enjoyed this. Good work :).
Fantastic..
It's a shame this hasn't been rated higher. I understand though, this type of progressive ambient/rock music isn't very popular for some reason which is a shame.
However, everything on this track is done extremely well, the multi-layering of synth creates a massive wall of sound that is fantastic which eventually builds up to a brilliant climax.
Mixing and mastering is also done very well, my only comment is that in a few areas you seem to have too much going on in the middle frequency range which seems to drown out the guitar work at some points. Remember that there is only so much you can cram into the same frequency before things start to sound muddy :).
However, this song gets the highest score i've ever given on any song to date on newgrounds. 10/10 man, keep up the good work.
I'm glad i'm the "10 you ever gave" ;)
Thanks for the neat review. I still have to work on the frequencies in many of my songs indeed. That's something i really need to improve, to get some more cooler dynamics. Thanks again Rottenbeard.
Have you learned the lessons only of those who admired you, and were tender with you, and stood aside for you? Have you not learned great lessons from those who braced themselves against you, and disputed passage with you?
