[Marche au Château in G minor 2]

You win.

Yes.

Winterwind-NS responds:

yes

[Marche au Château in G minor 1]

Man, you're so amazing.

As always. Seriously, I mean it.

I think one of your strong points is orchestration, the way your instruments interact is powerful, but I think your real good stuff lies in your melodies. Some of your melodies are just so incredible man - such as the theme of your adagio mvnt in your concerto - that just stay with you. And this theme is no different - it really shows the great battle type medieval feeling of Castle Crashers. I hope you win man, 'cause you deserve it.

That one guy (what's my name again?)

Oh yeah -

[Prelude no.2 Adagio Dolor]

Review time

First off, I like the mood this creates. Very serene, and somewhat sad. It's very pretty though. Also, even though the song isn't like angry or excited, the first chord has quite a force to it, giving the feeling of a very powerful sadness.

I like the melody; it's very simple. Not too complicated, which, I think, compliments a piece like this.

Very nice harmony, I think. No dead or boring chords, and I very much like the progressions you use.

All in all, a very nice piece. I like it a lot :D Keep it up man.

Rocky

P.S. I can tell you get some influence from Winter :D

Fuoco responds:

The mood is precisely what I was aiming for :D
About the melody, it's still very hard for me to create a long melody, and sticky, without messing it up :(. Still, I'm working on it. Maybe I should take classes :p

Influence from Winter?
Yes :), he's one of my favorite composers.

Thanks for reviewing!!

[Countdown [RyuCel]]

Review time

Okay man. This is a good piece. I don't normally listen to techno, but whatever. I can't enjoy any genre (except rap) if it's well made.

I don't know anything about how to make electronic music with Fruity. So yeah...I really have no idea how this was made lol.

I like the little countdowns, though that's pretty obviously what the piece is named after. The piano is a really nice touch. (Pianos own all.) The main theme is pretty catchy too man.

Btw the shrieking thing at 0:36 and other parts makes it seem a bit scarier too (not a bad thing). A minor was a good choice of key too. Simple, but effective.

It's a really good song. Tell whoever you worked with that you and he can pat yourselves on the back.

bboyneedle responds:

Thanks Rocky! :D I will go listen to your music now. I am about to post another song on here too if you would like to hear that as well.

[Prelude no. 7 Lento Elegante]

REVIEW'D!!!!

Hm...hello.

Uhh nice job w/ the left hand. It wasn't too generic this time. lol Good thing you changed it kinda later. Not really.

I really like the melody. It's like sad/mysterious/confused all kindsa stuff. Nice recap at 2:00. I like how each time you reuse the theme, it's like returning to a familiar place. I like how it goes into octaves near the end. I don't really have a favorite part. I like it all. Nice chordal work too overall, I like.

Great jarb. Another addition to the file of Winterwind's Romantic piano lol.

Have a cake.

Winterwind-NS responds:

Fanks home boy lol
that was messed up wut u said about my left hand lol

thanks for the review, kinda.. not really...

WW-ns (lol!)

[Waltz]

Wow. My first review I've written in a while.

Sooo. Where to begin. Listening as I review...

Lol what a creative title. The beginning was a little weird with the whole dotted quarter, eighth before the downbeat. It surprised me. The chord structure is nice throughout.

That tiny "break" from the main theme was nice. I like the descending eighth notes in the left hand at the end of the theme just near the end.

Hmmmm I just wish it was longer lol. I couldn't stand to write something to short. Anyways, good job.

Rocky

[Little Piano Improvisation]

Very nice

This was very nice, calm in relaxing even. Hm...I don't really think it belongs in Classical though. Sounds a bit more like jazz if you ask me. Great job at playing the song. I really liked the melody, but I feel you could've taken a break from it and done something a little different somewhere.

Nonetheless, lovely work. I hope to hear more like this.

jackie1188 responds:

Its kind of a mix of classical and Jazz.
But I think its more based on classical music, thats why I put it here.
Maybe there some jazz-pierces to come.

[_-=[The Maestro's Requiem]=-_]

Dear Maestro,

:'(

Great song.

MaestroSorrow responds:

*death*

heh, inside joke guys.

Thanks MusicalRocky, keep up the good fight.

[This time it's for you]

Cool

Yeah, I finally came over here and reviewed. I don't listen to this kinda stuff lol.

I don't like it (this kinda genre isn't my thing) but I know it's good. Lol if that makes sense. Nice job. I wish I could give you some critique and stuff on it. Sorry 'bout that.

Again nice job,
MusicalRocky

[Meanwhile, in...]

Cool

The sound of a real piano is quite lovely, especially after listening to my Midi stuff >:(

Wow, I was pleasantly surprised when I started listening to the melody. The whole piece actually strike me as creepy. Also a hint of sad, but very creepy.

I like that big melody jump at the beginning. Very surprising. Also like that you started off in the v chord. Nice.

Nice key. E minor is cool. Darn, I wish I had more to say. Nice job, man.

MusicalRocky

WinTang responds:

Thanks!! Creepy is what it should be, that's why it gradually drops the common harmonization and ends in shrill dissonance.

(Actually, it's in G major, and it starts there, but it has the B in the bass)

Thanks man and I'll get working on your piece soon. Cheers.
