[Ballroom Beauty]

Sounds pleasing

I like that little echo the piano has as well, gives a feel of being in a hallway somewhere and just enjoying the music as well. As for it being ambient, I would have to disagree and say it is classical instead as this is piano only. Ambient is more of a genre where you let the sounds paint the scene and tone for a place.

Very nice piano playing however, the echo effect is a nice thing worked with on this piece too. Not too bad at all.

Overall, nice classical piano piece.

Thanks for the review, and thanks for clearing up what genre this should've been classified as.

Nice beat

I like how well it loops as well without ever stopping too actually. Could make for some nice level music in some video game where you go to an urban area I guess. Has a slight Asian feel to it as well I think. The beat is nice though, I like it as it is too. Very nicely done.

The drums are smooth and have a good rhythm here. The strings have a nice plucking sound when struck here. The violin gives that classical feel to this piece too.

Overall, nice piece.

thanks man!

[J@K's Time - PF (Band Cover)]

Very Nice

Although I have no idea why it feels like it sounds messy to me for some reason. This cover is just as great as your other covers you have done so far as well. The guitar, bass, and drums all sound great and I think I hear a bit of reverb on the guitar so that is nice to hear I think.

Overall, another awesome cover from an awesome band. :P

gamejunkie responds:

Thanks. Another fantastic and much appreciated review. Keep 'em coming.

Cheers gamejunkie.

[J@K's Knocking on Heavens Door]

Wonderful cover

This sounds truly nice on the ears I think and the female vocals are really nice to hear as well. Wonder who that could be...? :P She sounds really nice too. This cover is remarkably nice though and a very nice tribute piece too I think. Well done.

The guitar sounds really smooth and clean and enjoyable. The vocals and backup vocals are fun to hear and wonderful too. The bass line is soft and gives a feeling of kindness as the song keeps on going and going here making it great. The drums are great and well played, great sounding drummer.

Overall, this is a great cover and very fun on the ears, wonderful work here to everyone who did this with you.

gamejunkie responds:

Thanks, awesome review once again. Unfortunately I must maintain the privacy of all parties involved in the recording of this cover track. Needless to say they are some of Australias finest musicians and the vocalist is world renowned, but I must keep it hush hush as to their identities or they will stop recording with me, anonymity is our agreement. PS: To the bands amazement, our singer had never actually sung this song before (I know, unbelievable) and did not know the words, so we quickly had to scribble them down on a piece of paper for her. And would you believe this was Take 1. It's true.

Cheers gamejunkie.

Great skill

Haha, love how all the "Users who liked this also enjoyed:" segment of the page only has links to your other songs, that's pretty awesome!!

Really good guitar skill and it feels pretty cool to hear it being done on guitar in tribute to his version of it as well too. No idea why I use to think Boston did this either, hilarious. The skill here is quite wonderful too. Nothing extremely fancy but it gets the point across of how nice it is to hear. Like how is version was entirely crazy too.

Overall, crazy cover, amazingly good as usual.

gamejunkie responds:

Thanks once again. Yeah, this is far from an easy track to cover, especially at this level of competency. And can't help but do tributes to the greatest guitarist of all time. Great review, thanks.

Cheers gamejunkie.

Funky

Love that scratch sound on the guitar at the start as it sounds quite awesome to me. Really great cover of another song though. You seem to have the right idea with this piece too. You plan to cover anything other than Jimi in the future or even take requests? Really good skill on the guitar once more and another awesome cover!!

Overall, awesome cover here I think.

gamejunkie responds:

Thanks for the review. Other covers are on the way, (not Jimi), but working on some other band stuff at the moment. Requests?? Possibly. Glad you enjoyed it.

Cheers gamejunkie.

Peaceful

This was a real peaceful cover of his song, not heard it yet but this makes you want to hear it though which is good. How long have you been playing guitar anyways and what kind of pick do you use while playing? The tune is very lighthearted in tone and gives a feel of wanting to hug a friend or at least it makes me think that anyways. Very wonderful cover though and rather enjoyable on the ears and mind.

Overall, another great guitar cover from you once again. has a powerfully nice feeling to it. The solo was nice too.

gamejunkie responds:

Thanks for the great review. Been playing longer than you've been on the planet, that's all I'm saying. And use Dunlop picks normally.

Cheers gamejunkie.

[J@K's Guitar Covers #4]

Excellent

Well this is an excellent guitar cover of Purple Haze, sadly I heard the Ozzy version first but I prefer this original one to the cover by him any day of the week actually. The guitar sounds very smooth and I like how it goes to cover the full song too. You can hear a light amount of air in the background actually when there is no sound at all.

Overall, a very well done cover of the original. Only thing that could make this guitar cover better is adding a bass guitar to it since it would sound even more charming to me I think. Very well done cover though.

gamejunkie responds:

Thank you. As always your reviews are greatly appreciated.

Cheers gamejunkie.
