[Forgot To Say Goodbye]

Saddening

I could see this being used as a song for a sad part in a movie where two characters are parting ways for one reason or another whether it be fighting something or looking for a better place to be themselves. This is just a sad but urban feeling piece.

The long ambient bass lines give the song a nostalgic feel to the beat. The piano kind of makes you want to go back in time a little bit here. The drums kind of lay down the back bone of the song and give the song a strange feel as they change from time to time too. The whole beat together is nicely done.

Overall, good tune.

[Heavy Eyes and Hopeful Hearts]

Calming

This was a very calming piece anyways. Kind of just makes you wish to sit down and simply enjoy the nicer things in life such as friends, hugs, and possibly your pet cat sitting on your lap sleeping in a funny position. Maybe even sitting with your girlfriend/boyfriend as you both kind of just sit there watching tv or role playing while cosplaying as well.

The piano is very soft here and soothing. The very light notes in the background kind of give off the effect of someone just relaxing while they also play a piano in the foreground. The other soft sounds are very nice to hear here.

Overall, soft and kind.

[Stargenx - Under the Razor]

Tense piece

Kind of gives the feeling that something is about to go down or possibly get destroyed. I can just see a bunch of people marching very slow and dramatically to this music before stabbing others with a sword to the heart.

The classical instruments sound very intense and the bass line along with drums make it feel quite tense. The flow of the song gives off a feeling as if this could be your last stand for something or another. Have no idea what the stand is for but you are fighting blindly for it.

Overall, great tense piece.

Thanks for the review! It does somewhat sound like that.

[EpicMetalInstrumental(Jeffaro)]

Awesome \m/

This is actually pretty good for something without words anyways. I wonder how the lyrics would go for this beat. I don't think it matters though, headbanging, mosh pits, and heavy riffs are all that matter here/

The guitar riff seems to be very well written here and I liked the galloping triplets you used here. I do not hear a bass line here, oh well. The drums sound really good and keep in good rhythm the whole way. Liked how the second guitar played notes on the lower strings which was great.

Overall, you did an excellent job here

Jeffaro responds:

Yeah, I'm a bad bass player. My hand starts to hurt if I try to do gallops and such. If you listen to the section at 1:33 you can hear a bass line that sounds really cool.

[Broken Heart Pumping (DEMO)]

Happy

I like how this has a very happy feel to it. The intro kind of made me think of the intro song to "King of the Hill". More than likely a coincidence though. Very good tune though.

The guitar sounds very appealing to a large variety of people I think. The vocals are very good. The lyrics are actually very lovey dovey I think which is good for a make up scene where a couple hug and make up while being sorry for each other. The secondary guitar sounds were cool when they came in.

Overall, this is a wonderful beat. Great work here.

[My World (DEMO)]

Touching

This actually kind of makes you feel a bit happier on the inside. The guitar playing here is very beautiful as well. Kind of makes me think of those indie movies where the main character is at their lowest and a song is played to make them realize that it could always be much much worse than it currently is.

The guitar riff is very wonderful here and literally almost brought a tear to my eye as well. The lyrics are wonderful here and kind of make you wish to examine yourself again to find out where you went wrong in life. The vocals are terrific and I really enjoy how you are singing the song.

Overall, this is a beautiful piece.

[The Last Song You'll Ever Sing]

Speedy

Wow this sounds pretty great with you playing the guitar that fast. The vocals are also very good as well here. I like the pauses as it gives the illusion that the song is over and then you come right back into it very quickly.

The guitar sounds very good here. Nice tuning on it as well. The lyrics and vocals are very soft yet harsh at the same time which is good because a vocalist needs to be confident in speaking aloud. The little breakdown sounded very nice here so that kind of made it even cooler with how fast you did that part.

Overall, impressive.

[PMTTYD: Macho Grubba]

Pain but good

Heh, I remember fighting him for the first time. HE was such a pain because I wasn't good at guarding. Now whenever I play which hasn't been in a while i always get the superguard on every attack. I rarely suffer damage now when I play which I think is splendid to know.

The bass line was freaking piece of art here and I liked that a lot. The synths are great and later in make me think of Giygas who has always been a creepy boss to me. The drums sound awesome. Sounds like something I would have played as well. The whole beat is great.

Overall, excellent cover.
