[Peace V.2 (Dj Sonik)]

Enjoyable

Has a smooth feel to it. Gives a feel of just relaxing while watching clouds of rain pass on by you and get a little bit wet as you go back inside to put on dry clothes and stay warm then just relax for the afternoon and enjoy yourself playing games and other things.

The synth gives a very liquid feel like drinking water and being happy. The bass is very light and has a slight bounce and kick in it making you feel like jumping around a little bit as well. The drums are great and keep a good rhythm and the reverse clap sounds are a neat little trick to hear too I think.

The synth gives a feel of great joy I think, very nice on the ears.

Overall, very greatly done house beat, very enjoyable.

[Matt Cavender - Out of Reach]

Wonderful

Sounds very nice for a piano only peace, very well done too. How long did you spend on this anyways? Very wonderful and nice on the ears, great work here.

[Sneaky Menu Loop]

Sneaky

Has a kind of sneaky feel to it as if you were watching someone trying to get something without being seen at the same time too. Very nice sound to it. Could cut off the last half second of it though so the loop never ends. Nice work here.

PuffballsUnited responds:

I think I added that because I was having uploading troubles. And I'm glad it feels the way you described. That's totally what I was going for!

[Cyrptic Temple]

Trapped

Very dark feeling song.

You enter the temple alone as you have no friends who wanted to come with you or any friends at all for that matter. You walk forth seeing images and a bit of dry and rusted blood on the walls of the temple. Maybe people were sacrificed to some deity here at one point?

You keep walking forth with a heavy feeling of uneasiness and in the distance you feel like you hear someone whispering to you begging you to come and help them. You slowly walk forth and keep going. You want to know what happened here to make people no longer wish to enter it.

You make your way even further in and step on a rigged stone tile on the floor. As it goes down a bit you hear something open in the distance. Stepping off you hear it close. You push a pedestal over onto it to keep that distant door open. You walk forth a bit more and see the door that had opened as there was heavy dust coming from the door.

You walk into it and cough a bit while slightly choking on the smell. The faint whispering voice seems to be getting a bit louder now as you keep pushing your way forward. You wonder what could possibly be alive there or was it an audio tape someone left on and it is somehow looping.

You could care less and keep on pushing forth. The sounds of the temple don't seem to bother you either. Being alone as made you feel comfortable around sounds like this or anything at all for that matter. As you go deeper in you notice the walls closing in a bit as you keep going forth. Turning around you see the faint light from where you entered. You walk backwards a bit noticing the walls are getting narrower as they were designed to have that look and the light gets fainter and fainter the further away from it you walk.

"Will you help me?", you hear a voice, the one that had been faint sound even closer.

Walking forth after turning around you still see nothing and hear a light laughter that almost makes you want to vomit for some reason. As you get further in, the walls become so narrow you have to walk on your side and enter a new room that is huge.

All that you see though is a few items. You turn around the light is no longer visible as something as moved the pedestal forcing you to stay inside. Something in the room will hopefully let you leave though. You look at the items and notice only one has no dust on it. You examine the other items first noticing they are vases or small cat statues or people from the past.

You walk to the undusty item standing on a pedestal and notice in poorly written hand writing that it says "Do not open.... if you wish to leave."

The words shake you a bit as you say them. You wonder what is in it.

"Please, help me. I have been stuck in here for a long time. Release me, and I can help you leave alive. Those words, those words are written by something else living here wishing to keep me trapped in this box forever. It stole my body and has been holding onto it for a few millenniums now. I just want my body back...."

You look at it and faintly hear something whisper to you in fear to leave the box closed. You look around and see nothing though. You begin to slowly open the small chest and hear a loud scream from behind you. You close the chest and look behind you.

"Who's there?!"

...no answer....

You begin to open it again and feel a tap on your shoulder.

"DON'T OPEN IT!", the creature yells at you. It looks slightly human, "That thing speaks lies! It is a cursed creature that feasts upon humans and steals their bodies. Ever since I watched my friend get killed and absorbed by that thing, I have lived here since making sure no one opens it... ever!"

"I have a better idea!", you say, "If it can do that. Let's take it out, chain it up and drop it in the middle of the ocean where no one can ever open it again."

It nods and leaves the room again. You wait for weeks and see nothing. You slowly open the box and see white eyes staring at you as if pleasing to be freed. You open it and feel a surge of power within you. Somehow you feel powerful.... and free....

Thanks for your story!

[I Remember [Trance House]]

Really nice

Really like this beat, nice work on it too. The only problem I notice is near the start where the voices overlap each other a bit and it sounded a tad bit messy there. Aside from that everything else sounds really nice. Really nice vocals, who was singing it?

The synth sounds bouncy and very happy on the ears too. The bass is nice and hard hitting here. Like how the synth just stays happy as well. The drum beat is simple and helps the beat move along. Love the drum fills as well, very pleasing on the ears. Dreamy sounding vocals and lyrics.

Overall, very nicely done. Excellent loop!

tay2von responds:

Thank you very much, Im gonna go work on the vocals right now, and the vocals are a sample I got off of the internet......

[Yay For Pi]

Interesting concept

Like how the start sounds a bit like a retro organ playing and then the dubstep comes waltzing in to make life interesting and entirely cheery. Sounds like a mathematical song as well, nice. What is the main style of this piece anyways though? Like how it starts to speed up later into the song too, gives a feel of having to speed up to complete a level in a game.

The drums are funky and fast here. I like the chilly digital feel of the synth playing in the song. The bass gives a feeling of coming up and giving all your friends some fun math stuff to do that isn't so boring. The dub sounds make this song even more interesting to hear too.

Overall, very interesting piece. Would make a nice album opener.

[SW - Strong Arm (Remix)]

Rawr

Sounds like a rather epic boss battle piece to me actually. The song has a rhythm and life of it's own as the sounds come to life in your mind and give a feel of using machines to battle some super beast that is trying to destroy the world quickly as it does not like them at all anymore.

The machine sounds are pretty cool and remind me of Nine Inch Nails a bit and Anarchy Club. The dub sounds of the machines make me think of Silent Hill for some reason too.

The synth has an awesome feel of just giving heavy inspiration to the listener as they struggle on to win the battle. The violin gives a dynamic battle feel of having to go it all alone and make your way to the end of the battle before it transforms again. Kind of makes me think of Transformers too.

The drums here sound really nice and I like how the roll. The bass was soothing as well.

Overall, incredibly sweet song. Well done!!

[=(Loyalty)=]

Uplifiting

Has a real uplifting feel to it as if knowing she will be there to help you no matter what sometimes even try to help you get there a little fast too. Very well composed character theme though, seems to fit her in a good way. Very nicely done.

The drums are really fast and kind of have a street drum feel to them as well. The synth was awesome and love how it gives the song a drum n bass feel actually, very awesome work there. The bass is soothing and gives a high feeling of hope too, nicely done.

Overall, another great character theme.
