"One of the most beautiful things I have heard"

submission: |~DearFriends~|

date: October 16, 2009

One of the most beautiful things I have heard. I am truly astounded. I love your work - a full art package when combined with your drawings.

Score: 7

"Nice, but pulling some Haddaway here :)"

submission: Call it Love - Champius Rmx

date: October 10, 2009

It's nice, but one thing I see here and in many of the other "good" mixes, is you guys are pulling the backing from "What Is Love", and then adding some stuff :)

Score: 9

"Like Jim Brickman"

submission: Reasoner- Living Transparent

date: October 1, 2009

Not sure if any of Jim Brickman's songs have the same melodies or backing, but anyway, it's like Jim Brickman, so if anyone likes this, look at Jim Brickman. Ryan too if you don't know him :)

Score: 7

"Similar to Moonlight Sonata"

submission: Dream of Water and Land

date: September 23, 2009

It sounds quite similar to moonlight sonata to me. I think that you probably heard moonlight Sonata and then later came up with this tune (that kind of thing happens to me sometimes). The people who feel like they have heard it before somewhere could be thinking of moonlight Sonata.

Score: 7

"It sounds too much like Bounce"

submission: "Positive Vibe"

date: June 28, 2009

It sounds so much like Bounce to me that it's hard to pass off as a coincidence, I like it, but I don't know what to think. Is it really original? See 102483 on newgrounds audio (just change the number in the URL and listen part of the way in, like a minute in)

Score: 8

"Beatles meets Frankie Valli"

submission: Fancy Mike - Monsterville

date: January 31, 2009

Saw this track in the flash. It's great.

Strawberry Fields Forever & Can't Take My Eyes off of You put together yields Monsterville.

The only problem is it's too short :)

Score: 10

"Sweet"

submission: Terrified of Monsters

date: January 31, 2009

This is one of my favorite songs on newgrounds. It's cute, sweet, and touches me emotionally. Wonderful melody.

(I'll note that a bit of it is reminiscent of the "Storybook Love" theme from Princess Bride, but reminiscent, nothing more than that :)

Score: 7

"Nice melodic parts"

submission: Always A Hero II

date: January 23, 2009

Nice melodic parts. Is that a high hat keeping the beat?

I think that I agree, the percussion is lacking.

I would suggest: at 1:20ish, leave the base drum as it is, that sounds fine.
In the beginning (0 seconds to 30 seconds or so) have a sharp snare drum keeping the beat that crescendos and then drops down within 2 beats, then rises slowly again. (So a few rises with rapid falls). Then, once melody starts, leave things as they are now, w/ high hat (or weak snare if that's what it is) so melody is not drowned out.

Score: 6

"Not bad"

submission: Flow of the Moonlight

date: September 20, 2008

This was not bad, I like your version, but you should have specifically stated that this was moonlight sonata in your comments. I'd have given a slightly higher rating then.

Score: 9

"Great as usual"

submission: Summer Days (N)

date: September 20, 2008

Tried to pull a fast one on us by posting without us noticing, eh!

Great as usual, good voice, lyrics, and melody.
