[++Cryptic Divinity++ ~Part 2~]

Great

It's about time I got off my lazy as to review this one. I think I already voted and downloaded it but I forgot to review. I didn't think the intro was too long then again I've always loved listening to clean section's. When the distortion kicks in it really get's awesome. Your rhythm playing is as good as ever and you've gotten even better with your soloing it sounds like. I liked your transition's between the heavy and clean section's.

In the end all I can really say is awesome riff's and awesome solo's. Keep it up man.

rocker206 responds:

Hey man! Yeah I personally didn't find the intro to be too long but I guess everyone has their own oppinion. Anyway Thanks for the awesome review! Glad u liked the song man.

[Eagleheart Loop]

Woohoo

Power Metal rules!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not too bad man Stratovarius kick ass and you did a good job on the riff. Not much else to say really. Oh yeah Timo Tolkki rules!!!!!!!!!!! Keep it up man.

Chrizzly responds:

Thanks, this was just a very fast made track, but thanks anyway. Tolkki is the man!
See ya around...

[KoT - Mightnights]

Wow

NO matter how man times I hear this I still love it. I thought I reviewed this already but hey oh well. I really love the bells in this. They are used frequently but they don't get boring. I do agree with Arbiter that you should have had a contrabass going. I love the strings and the piano was great. I hope you get the time to work on more orchestral tracks soon.

Slayer-of-trolls responds:

Thanks alot man. Sorry for the late reply... Yeah, I've give orchestral music a break for abit to focus on more guitar oriented stuff. Orchestral takes alot of time but I'm defintely gonna make some more soon.

[My Torment]

Nice

Man how did I not review this sooner. Great fucking job on the tune. The drums sound great and the synth or whatever in the background added a nice touch. The guitar tone was pretty badass aswell. The riffs were perfect for the song you played them very well. I've heard Bad_Man's vocal idea for it aswell and I must say it kicks ass. Great tune hopefully you'll be submitting more often.

pitchblak responds:

Thanx for the review man,im glad you like it.Ive got alot of ideas just dont have much time.Maybe i will get some more out there soon.Later

[Time To Reflect (Stealth)]

Nice

Pretty damn different from your other songs but it's good to cover as much ground as you can with music. I really enjoyed listening to it I can't give any real criticism other than maybe a bit more reverb. Though it sounds great as is. Keep it up man.

Stealth-Emergence responds:

Cool! thanks for you review! glad you liked it!

Peace Out!

[Apocalypse On The Horizon 2]

Awesome

I like what you did with this version. The percussion is a bit more lively and driving. The guitar is a bit better and the synth sounds great aswell. I definately like this version more it has more energy to it. Great job renovating this tune keep it up.

Stealth-Emergence responds:

Thanks man XD

Glad you liked it

Yeah I just had to upload this version as said before this would have made it to first submission, but i lost this and all the recordings I made for it

So here it is in all it's glory

Thanks for you kind words and review

Peace Out!

[_Yumbo-Yak_Happy Birthday!]

Hmm

This is pretty odd sounding but not really in a bad way. Very very very unique take on the song haha. Overall it wasn't too bad man good job.

Yumbo-Yak responds:

I was trying to make something unique for my grandma, I'm glad u liked it, she like it too :)

[_-={The Woman's Roar}=-_]

Very nice

Is this singer really only 15? She is quite amazing for being so young. Also does she submit music to NG I'd love to hear it? Anyway onto the review.

The intro was very nice I happen to think your samples sound amazing. Your strings aren't stale and lifeless like some samples I have heard. Your percussion is fantastic and I really think that you have a lot of talent with classical music. It's hard to believe you don't know theory yet your songs sound as good as they do. I thought everything in this song really complemented the vocals and never overpowered them.

I really enjoyed listening to the song and my only real complaint would be that it wasn't longer. Great job to you and Lady_Arsenic.

MaestroRage responds:

There is a longer version coming Speed, I just have yet to master it and equalize it, and other stuff.

Anyways, i'm glad you liked the song, the singer is really 15, and I have a song featuring her and my voice, I hope it will be warmly accepted by Newgrounds, for it is by far my most time consuming work to date.

Thank you again for the review, i'm glad you enjoyed the piece ^^.

[Chill Session 1 (Short Vers.)]

Not bad

You should record more than one guitar track. It'll really thicken up the sound if you do. The snare was a bit loud so maybe turn that down just a little. I liked the sound of the hi-hats. The piano was a bit hard to hear for me so maybe pan that a little bit so it is a bit easier to hear. Overall a cool track that could use some tweaking.

If you'd like pm me your e-mail address and I can send you the link to a site with helpful tips on eq,compression and drum mixing.

Stealth-Emergence responds:

Thanks man!

I decided against it for this track, maybe I should have gone with my first idea for it! Oh well!

If you haven't heard my Drown in the fountain of youth, I did more with guitar on that

Thanks for your review

Peace Out!

Stealth

yeah I've PM'd you too I could do with some EX tips

Thanks!

[Apocalypse On The Horizon]

Hahahaha

Metaljonus was right some of the guitar does sound somewhat similar to Rainbow In The Dark. The guitar was decent but was a little muddy. The drums were pretty damn good and the synth at times reminded me of some old video games. Overall you did a fantastic job on the song. It could use a bit of eqing in my opinion but this is definately great for a first submission.

Stealth-Emergence responds:

Well man thanks for the great review, I really gotta get on top of that EQing I've PM'd you aswell

Thanks Man!

Peace Out!
