[A New Beginning]

Calming

Really like how it just starts out with soft classical instruments and then slowly adds in trance sounds to the piece to make it feel a bit hyper yet calm at the same time as well. Very nice piece of work though, it sounds very nice on the ears.

The synth plays high chords and remains very nice the full way through. Kind of gives a feeling of happiness and calm serenity as well. The bass line is soft and heard in the backing area. The drums are simple yet pumped in a very great way too. The classical keyboard sound heard in the background also gives a feeling of calmness.

Does give a feeling as if you could start it all over again and find something to be very happy about as well. Very wonderful piece.

Overall, excellent tune.

[Eternal Battle - SG]

Pumped

This is a fairly interesting piece of work. The sounds of it kind of make me think of some older video games where near the final boss stage you would usually hear this style of music. Also very dream like music too, fantastic to listen to.

The guitar is pretty sweet and very great to listen to. The synth is ambient and sounds quite cheery with the notes played. The bass line soothes and calms the song as it continues to play along and make one feel ever so happy to hear it as well. Wonderful. The drums are pumped and very fast to listen to, amazing.

Overall, an excellent piece of work. Does make for excellent boss music.

[A Child's Game]

Pleasing

I found this to be a rather relaxing and very cartoonish feeling piece anyways. Kind of imagine a kitten playing around in a house and just falling over while having fun as well. Really cute sounding piece anyways. Sounds pretty nice.

The violins kind of play off a childish sounding feel to the song. They make the song feel like fun will be there. The xylophone is truly a soft and nice piece, kind of imagine a kitten falling over with each xylophone note too. The drums and cymbals are really cool too.

The piano is soft and playful. The tune just seems to keep together and make you think of little playful and cute animals anyways.

Overall, very cute piece.

Maaw. Kittens :D Thank you!

[EML - Skeleton]

Good piece

The only downside to this really appears to be buzzing anyways. Aside from that the rest of the beat is very solid. Kind of has a really strange feeling to it like you were watching the story of a new comer arriving in town to help keep ghosts at bay and stuff.

The drums seem to play for most of the time anyways which has a dramatic feel to it anyways. The violins are calming and very well composed. They give a feel as if something sad might be happening as well that makes the residents very sad or angry at something.

The lower violin notes play a more dynamic feel and give out the feel that some weird stuff might go down as they guy pulls out his ninja swords and stuff. The piano makes the piece feel a bit calmed.

Overall, really cool piece of work.

[-*CaSH*- Redemption]

Relaxing

Kind of makes me think of some parts of Final Fantasy VIII as well. Really soft and calming piece of jazz though, sounds nice.

The piano is really nice and has a sweet sounding melody to it too. The drums are calming and sound incredible as well to me. They kind of brighten up the mood a bit. The bass line is very simple and brings relaxation to the whole tune. It sounds incredibly easing on the ears too.

Overall, has a very nice and soft tone to it that makes you feel good about life. Nice work.

Thanks for the review!

Again with the FF? I should really play those games, given the almost integrity of my music sounds like it...

Thanks again for the review, really glad you enjoyed!

Cheers

[Kamehameha]

Awesome

Sounds very close to the original of when Goku says it too. Nice one.

[Final Egg - SA1 REMIX]

Good cover

Really soft and spaced out remix of the final egg zone theme I see. Sounds good though, you really seem to have it all brought together as well. Really like how the tune just seems to flow over with goodness and memories.

The synth sounds really good and I see there are two playing. One plays a main piece while the other plays some quirky high notes and makes it feel strange for you too. Nice. The bass is subtle and very soft here.

The piano sounds really soft, almost giving a feel as if you can do it no matter what comes to stop you from reaching Eggmans.

Overall, wonderful cover here.

Gregzilla responds:

Thanks alot! Feedback is always appreciated, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D

[The Corridors of Time]

Good piece

Reminds me of what good times I had trying to beat the game. Took forever but was always a fun game to play anyways. This beat is a real good reminder too, thanks for remaking the tune.

The funky sounding synth sounds wonderful and gives a feeling as if you were time traveling. The crystal sounds are wonderful too as they make it feel as if the place was filled with clocks and other time things. The vocals are wonderfully done and very nice to hear as well. Very good work.

Overall, thanks for doing a remake.

Why thank you sir!

[Water in the Sky]

Soft and damp

Kind of does make you think of a water level in a game of some kind anyways. You begin the level searching for a way to solve a problem above ground so you may go forth. You finally solve the problem a while later by destroying the blockage caused by fried fish or something like that.

The synth sounds pretty dreamy here as it makes you feel as if you were floating on water and simply relaxing for the day too. The bass is so subtle and calming that it is likable too. It kind of feels as if you were surrounded by swans and such. The drums maintain a nice and steady beat that pumps this piece up.

Overall, really smooth and aquatic piece of work. Very good work.

[Welcome to Zebes]

Samus! Samus!! Samus!!!!

Reminds me of the good times I actually had playing Super Smash Bros. Melee, always found the mission to defeat all the Metal Samus AI to be a bit difficult back then but now I can easily do it with little to no effort. Really relaxing and cool remake though, did a wonderful job on this one.

The bass seems to be the main piece of this song as it provides the main theme and piece for the song. The violin sounds really smooth and classy as always. I think you did a good job with those two. The drums hold and maintain a steady beat and help you feel motivated to complete the level.

Overall, excellent cover and loop.

MeteorManMike responds:

Cool, glad you liked it! Ideally, there would be some brass in here, but I was pressing myself to put this one out before I left, and don't have many good plugins besides.

This was intended to be primarily chromatics, with the bass filling the same role as the original. The drums are just to fill up the otherwise quiet spaces.

Thanks for reviewing!
