Masterfully done my friend. you were able to keep a dark atmosphere but with a very upbeat melody i really like the change of modes at 2:02 and at 2:30 but i feel like youe run out of ideas on the ending thats just me though maybe a waltz version of one the dominant motif here wouldve been great :)

also i love the horns you use is it live or a sample library if its a sample library what did you use?

anyway i really love this one. good fucking job

Azhthar responds:

Hey! Thanks a lot!You and ZipZipper mastered the music I want to do even before I knew you two so it means a lot to me to get such a positive feedback! The brass I used was the brass symphony series by soundiron. If you thought it was life horns it means they did a graet job in sampling :)

I really love the variation on the main theme/motif and great use on the sfx really adds to it but the highlight for me here is the harmonies :)

but i think a bassline would really make this more solid. you dropped the bass

ZipZipper responds:

Drop out :(

Nothing like a good rock song about rocking.

MetalRenard responds:

I know, right? :D
You can feeeeel the cheeeeeese. But I had fun!!!

the dryness works actually it really gives that industrial and mecha feel. I like this one but you know i would have loved to hear a little melodic hook ;)

ForgottenDawn responds:

Hehe, I'm more of an atmosphere junkie ;)

you know i love the transitions here and the synths and the melody it truly is a dream like yet mechanical song but i feel the percussion needs work but overall its a great piece i can ignore the percussion because of those melodies

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Great to hear that you like the transitions, along wuth the synths and melody! I'm also pleased to hear that you can hear the mechanical feel I wanted this to have.
The percussion is something I will try to improve in future tracks for sure!
Thank you for leaving a review, steampianist!!! :D

OMG you gave in to the evil hahaha

but i love it dude this is so cool

ZipZipper responds:

We have no choice but to give in, otherwise we'll be alone!!!!!

Blues and DnB very interesting and it works

The mixing is surprisingly solid and master is very clear good job although
The ending was sort of abrupt for me.

But still its a very cool piece good job

Azhthar responds:

Cool! Glad you like it. Yep the end is a bit strange indeed. Just an experiment to break the track after I broke some beats. It´s good to hear that you like the mixing because that means I progress here. Actually it´s also a bit surprising because I thought I compressed to much and loaded too much stuff into the lower midths at the sax solo. But I wanted to give some drive into this part...

this is my favorite from you the blend of 8bit and orchestra was perfect. just great job dude

Step responds:

Hey man! Super great to hear that. Ditto on your track - Hammered Bros. is so fun to listen to and I think it is the closest I have ever reached to being actually drunk (I don't drink).

Thanks for the comment.

dude.. this is so sad.

Anyways love this man and your mastering improved!

ZipZipper responds:

*stares into hot magma*

DUDE THIS IS AWESOME I LOVE IT! and those low frequency really created that stormy feel... and the orchestration as usual is wonderful

although i dont like those rain effect it was sort of unnecesary cos the piece and the orchestration already gives this stormy feel .. btw good job inserting Serenade of Waters and Sarias theme here

Step responds:

Haha I thought no Song of Storms arrangement would be complete without storm sound effects. Although I'm glad the orchestra was able to create a stormy vibe anyway. It was certainly something I tried to achieve. Nice job catching on the low frequencies too! I used a rumble texture from Omnisphere and it's cool that you noticed it.

Thanks for reviewing man! Let me just say that your four contributions to the album are simply wonderful. Brilliant work.
