[NCM - Stay Forever]

Pretty classy

Well it does have a very soft feel to it anyways so I like it too. The tune gives a feeling of two people standing under the stars on a roof enjoying the view of shooting stars flying by and wondering what tomorrow will be like as well. Very peaceful tune I think.

The guitar sounds real calm as each note resonates and causes the piano to join in and make the beat so much more lovely on the ears as well. The bass is very soft and calm too so I liked that a lot. The drums were cool and smooth.

Overall, not too bad, sounds nice.

Thanks mate!

[B7 - Firetongue]

Brutal

I like the brutal feel of this song that I seem to be hearing. So how long did you spend on this exactly because I really like it. The song seems like it would make an excellent boss battle piece as well while the boss tries to kill you for no good reason as well. The tune is very well done and I like it.

The guitar sounds really good here and I can hear some good screams that would go well here I think. The bass is good and stays behind the guitar in way of rhythm for the most part too. The drums sound really good and kind and the double bass was pretty awesome and the hi hat hits sound like they were hard hits too.

Overall, brutal yet awesome piece, perfect for a boss battle as well.

[Belmont's Pride]

Awesome boss

Well this sounds like it would make an excellent boss song with the lyrics added in as well. Who was doing the singing here anyways? The song just has a great feel and reminds me of Dracula from Castlevania a whole lot too. Very well done piece too.

The vocals and lyrics are very great here. The guitar sounds really fast and quite awesome as I like it a lot too. The bass is groovy and quite well done. The drums are very cool and the double bass beat is great too and makes me happy to hear. I liked the use of synth here too making the beat all that much better.

The screaming vocals were awesome and the chorus/guitar breakdown sounded really nice while the synth in the background gives a soft feel to the beat in a good way, nice.

Overall, awesome Castlevania tribute piece I think.

SaturnaliaMN responds:

Thank you for your well thought review and your overall overview. It is nice to see someone pick it apart and find what parts are your favorite. We try to give you as many options to find something you like and I am glad you have so many.

I do the singing and lyric writing, but everything is done within and for my(our) band Saturnalia.

[Sandopolis Zone (GaMetal)]

Worst level ever...

...mixed with the best cover ever would make the level more doable actually. Actually remember I ended up doing that stage at least fourteen to thirty times before I finally beat it mostly because by the time I got to Eggman I had little to no rings and almost no idea how to do the boss battle sadly.

The guitar here sounds really cool and I like the desert feeling it gives off as well. The bass is wonky and gives a good solid feel as you go forth trying to finish up the area. The drums are awesome and once again I really enjoyed the double bass drums too. The synth is great and I like how you give it a desert feel as well which was awesome.

Overall, awesome cover of one of the most difficult Sonic levels ever.

[Pumpkin Hill (Evil Carnival)]

Very nice

Nice reference to Sonic the Hedgehog here. While the gameplay up to Sonic Heroes is alright the only true thing I enjoyed about the game series was the soundtrack making the games standable to play at all. Very nice how this one gives a strange carnival of evil feel to it as well which is pretty nice.

The dark whistling and growling voice thing were nice to listen to and I enjoy how they help this song get lifted off of its feet. The synth gives a strange carnival feel as well which helps make it all the more creepier while the piano in the back helps move the beat forward. The secondary synth sounds jumpy though which is nice.

The bass here is bouncy and very nice to hear too. The drums are simple yet really good to hear too.

Overall, great Evil Carnival feeling song.

[Champion Battle (Pokemon RBY)]

\m/

Well this turned out to be quite a great cover of the champion battle I think. Just makes it a whole lot more dynamic and instead of the normal Pokemon for the battle the Pokemon used are far stronger and everything else. Really love the synth and guitar combo in use here as well.

The guitar sounds brilliant as it pretty much remains as a solo the whole time. The synth is cheery and gives a great dynamic feel too. The bass here gives a good groove as you hear it bouncing back and forth a whole lot too. The drums are really fast the double bass hits are great.

Really liked the synth breakdown too followed by the guitar, classy.

Overall, awesome metal cover of one of my few favorite Pokemon songs.

[[dB] I'm the Good Guy]

Cheery

The acoustic guitar here is very nice and when the finger slides it kind of makes me think of rain hitting on a window on one of those rainy days where it all seems sad but the beat seems to cheer you up though and seems very happy too. Nice to see it is in the top 5 for the week in the audio portal as well making it all the better.

The tune makes you think of a nice guy just trying to help others even if things turn out differently. The piano is a very nice addition and gives a solid happy feel to the song, kind of see the guy giving his best friends hugs even though they don't care about him as much any more either as time goes by.

Kind of heard a bit of an electronic sound in there as well like some kind of bass. Nice.

Overall, very happy song, kind of see lyrics with this though. Nice piece.

Decibel responds:

Yeah, Glad you like it :)

There are some electronic elements in it but no bass unfortunately, forgot to add that.

The guy below you said he's gonna add some lyrics |

[Gourmet Race Piano]

Well composed

Well this would make do for a fancy and classy boss battle song I think since it is a kirby song after all. The tune is just very nice on the ears and I like how fast it seems to play as well which makes it all the better. Cut off a couple of seconds towards the end and you would most likely have a perfect loop as well, nicely composed.

Overall, piano composition of a great song.

[Idyllic Memories]

Wonderful

The start seems real calming here. Like how it gives a feeling of piece as well and happiness. Kind of makes me think of My Little Pony actually and Fluttershy just having a peaceful afternoon stroll walking through the nearby Everfree Forest to see if any of the bunnies or chickens may have wandered over there. Very peaceful.

The piano is a very calming piece and makes you feel at ease as well while you go through the day just feeling really great about the world as well. The harp sounds real nice here and I like how it gives an atmosphere of happiness as well. The part where everything went down a bit kind of makes me think of Fluttershy lowering her head feeling a bit sad for a moment as well.

The violins are very charming and make you feel good as well which is very nice to hear I think.

Overall, very calming and relaxing piece. I like it a lot.

[Krowe - Differences]

Neat

Well this one sounds quite neat anyways. The start sounds like a calm radio recording of some beat I think which is quite neat indeed. The tune gives a feeling of great joy and happiness as well. Kind of reminds me of Star Fire and Terra from Teen Titans, good times.

The synth was very relaxing and happy sounding as well. The drums remain cooled down and really peaceful on the ears. The bass is good too. Really like the dub sounds though as at times it sounds kind of like a voice to me. Then when the full dub kicks in it sounds a lot like a boss song to me actually which is pretty cool I think.

Overall, awesome piece of work I think, really like it a lot.
