*NO* Half-Life: Episode 1 "Status: Hired"
Hemophiliac replied to prophetik music's topic in Judges Decisions
This feels and sounds like a more modernized version of the original source. The ability to recreate all of that from scratch is impressive. However, there is a lot of similarity to the original source making this very conservative. Well, that's not what we're looking for in arrangements. I'd like to see more development of the source into more of your own interpretation. Right now this is very close to a cover. Even stepping away for a contrasting section that changes up the texture for a bit would be a good way to vary it up some. Give us more things like the synth guitar at 1:43 and the final 15 seconds of the piece. This is where I see sigtau coming through and less of the original, give us more sigtau! The production is mostly fine as I didn't catch anything egregious standing out to me. On that front I felt like the synth bass was weak and could support the piece more, but this by itself was not a dealbreaker. The drop at 1:57 into the transition was cool! The main issue is the similarity of arrangement to the source and how conservative it is. I could see this developing into more, but as of right now it's not ready. NO -
I was browsing through YouTube videos that have been salvaged - meaning they were saved before that user was either terminated or they closed their YT account. One day, I stumbled upon this: https://archive.org/details/mmd-story-vocaloid-story-vocaloid-drama-part-2/%5BMMD+Story%5DVocaloid+Story+Vocaloid+DRAMA%5BPART+6_LAST+PART%5D.mp4 If you can help me identify the names of all the songs and BGM tracks used in all these videos, please do, I have a serious migraine after finally seeking my long lost gold nugget: Sara's Theme/Fate - Breath Of Fire 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fXVigQZCTPY I especially need to know the name of the song and version type used during the sequence where the three grieve over Neru's death. Again, AHA music, Siri, Shazam, and SoundCloud can only aid in so much. I even tested them on a track like In The Darkness Lies OC Remix - Banjo Kazooie, and they were all unable to identify the track. So, this is where human sleuthing is needed. These are all going to help me learn how these types of tracks are utilized in these types of scenarios. Extra note: Naruto is both an anime and a video game franchise, so this is why I added both video game and anime BGM.

I'll use my words, since no one else will! BACKED, Sam! I have pretty much all your stuff. Metroid Cinematica & Recharged, Chrono Cinematica, actually listened to Xeno Cross this week (I would also back a WHOLE-ASS 10 disc album of that idea BTW). But I've always adored the Mana soundtracks, especially Kikuta's SD2 and 3. I hope you get this off the ground, and I'm so looking forward to it!

*NO* Tyrian 2000 "Q is the letter, Q is the composition"
Hemophiliac replied to prophetik music's topic in Judges Decisions
First off I wanted to say that I think there's a cool idea here. Translating this to piano and cello to start feels like a no-brainer, but the idea works very well. When the other parts come in (bass, drums, strings, and guitar) at 1:15 this feels more fleshed out as a potential idea for a track. The guitar in particular is the best sounding element in this track with reverb and delay on it, and has a fitting tone for the track. Where this falls is the execution of production and the closeness to the original source tune. Adding the additional band parts is a step in the right direction, but it's still just the same melody and structure around that. More expansion and development of that idea and with more of your own ideas is the way to go. Production/sequencing leaves us with something much to be desired. We're really lacking the human feel here. It's all ice-cold perfectly sequenced with repeated velocities in the piano with line-locked rigid timing early in the piece. Humans don't play the exact same dynamic/velocity from note to note. There will always be miniscule differences between them. The timing won't fall exactly on the beat every single time. The cello sample in particular sounds very low quality and cuts off suddenly when it's done at 0:41. Almost feels like there's no reverb on the piano or cello to help with realism. Drum fill on the toms at 1:41 is awkwardly out of time. There's over a minute of silence at the end. Please double check your submission before sending it in next time. Once again, would love to see further development of your own ideas and expansion upon the source and not just a conservative arrangement on new instruments. The production should also be looked at for more realism with attention paid to humanization of the parts. It's a cool vibe, but not ready for OCR. NO -

Hashes are out of date because they’re generated when the file is initially uploaded, but they don’t get updated when we make revisions to the files. It’s a big job to regenerate all hashes and set them in the database. My advice is to just ignore hashes. I plan on obfuscating that data anyway.

Okay, the title is weird, I know. I don't know if many here know this show and if they hate it or not. But each of these songs reminds me of the six main ponies (manesix). Since I need to choose two more remixes, I chose two more that remind me of the show. XD From top to bottom, it would look like this: Twilight Sparckle, Rarity, Applejack, Pinkie Pie, Rainbow Dash, Fluttershy, and the other two remixes are the bonus songs that remind me of something from the show.

I've been streaming footage of the Aomori Nebuta Festival this week while listening to Japanese pop music and Japanese-style VGM, which inspired me to create this 8Track. These are just some of my favorite Japanese-style remixes, whether it's because I love their use of Japanese instruments, use of Japanese language, or just because they remind me of some of my favorite Japanese pop music.

JagerBaBomb replied to djpretzel's topic in Album Reviews & Comments
So! 2025. A lot has happened since this was released. The whole world knows Armored Core now. I've gone through and played all the games again. And this album? Still slaps. Would love to hear some takes on the new gen, but I'm glad this is still here. -
