I liked the style of the game. The graphics were very well done as well as the great halloween colors. I enjoyed the long, but repetitive gameplay despite a few little problems with the menu, and enemy leveling up as you level up. Great game Ludy! Enjoyed it a lot- Drz

Hey even Maestro's need to go to doctors from time to time! In any case, I'm glad you liked the piece, it's one of my personal favs at the moment :D.
I realize you have a new piece out DrZ, and i've listened to it infact, but i've had no time to leave a review lately, i'll do so very soon I promise.
In any case, thanks for the review, once again i'm glad you liked it!

ok, I don't review often and when I clicked on listening to this song I didn't plan on making a review anyway because of the title. I was basically like, this is gonna be another one of those...In the end I thought this song was awesome, I enjoyed it from the beginning to the end and definitely stunned . The title is ironic in that I could see myself getting my report card and seeing it while this music goes on in the background...don't know why but it works, nice job...sweetness- [)rZ

This song is a very well done song and very cool sounding!
Positives-First off, I liked the opening with the strings and the bell, made it sound very serious and "ambitious", no pun intended. I liked the the beat of the song and the timpini, how do you do that, lol? I liked the violins that faded in later in the song. I liked the abrupt end and the bell ( again ). I also liked the usage of the horns, made the song sound epic, which is you style and really well done!
Negatives- Lone string section didn't without any of the background wasn't amazing but still probably your style- made the song sound just as good! If you call that a negative...Hah, lol.
Not to rectify yours but this song deserves a 5/5 and I'm smashin it down...
Also where do you get those samples, and what program(s) do you use to make this great stuff?!
Great Job again!-DrZ
Author's Response:
Ah, that long string section... how I debated if it should be in there, again and again. In truth that segment was the most layered at first! However I decided that there should be a part calm enough to allow contrast between the vocal part near the end. So I actually cut off literally 5 layers from that segment and left it how it was.
As for the samples and programs, I used:
Fruity Studio 6 (Sequencing, mixing, major equalizing)
SoundForge (refining, ie. minor equalizing, effects, volume control)
MSPaint (For when I get bored...)
VST's I used (plugins that Fruity Studio's can use)
Edirol Orchestral
- Blaring horns
- The spiccato strings near the end
- Reverse Cymbol
East West Symphonic Gold Edition
- Cello Quick Stabs
- Violin Quick Stabs
- Double Bow Cello
- Solo Violin
- Timpini
- French Horns
- Cello Section
- Chimes (bells)
- Low Bass Strings
SoundFont Irene (I forget her last name)
- Vocal
I think thats all of it. If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Thanks for the review DrZ, i'm glad you enjoyed the piece ^^.
