I got my music 5-voted by BOSA!!! AHHHH111!!1!! *cries in joy*
My life is complete!
Very emotional, indeed. Of course it's difficult to listen to this with the same perspective as you, but I can clearly hear the romantic vibe you're portraying throughout the entire track. But at the same time, there is a faint sense of loneliness I think. This could be played at both a wedding and a funeral.
Excellent work, as always. I don't have to sweat or fret when I'm looking for quality music, because your stuff is readily available to me whenever I'm seeking a certain musical mood. Your work is great, and I hope to be more like you someday.
You have no need to aspire to be like anyone YOU ARE BOSA! and you're works are truly magnificent my friend.
Your typical electronic track. It was pretty much what I would expect, and it is quite good as far as quality is concerned.
Of course drumbeats in these songs are almost always repetitive, but it would be nice to hear some more fills and some more dynamics there. But overall, I liked the song. The instruments were quite soothing despite the drums.
One question, though: Why 'Rain in the Winter' for the title?
I will voteth five, my good sir.
Thanks for the review! Drums are definitely something I can improve on, I agree with you on that. The title I just kind of spontaneously chose because of the weather where I live. I feel like snow is the only good part of cold winter, rain in the winter is just depressing. My titles are never very profound, lol.
Quite splendid!
From start to finish, I noticed how... different this song is. The idea in itself was quite intriguing enough for me. Even though you took a journey through different styles of music, you still maintained the same theme throughout the song, which was well done. How brilliant.
I already discussed mastering with you, sir. But the quality of the programs used is another matter. They were quite average, I suppose, but you utilized them to their full potential without making them sound too synthy (to coin a phrase). The bagpipes were a nice touch, but not very realistic for my tastes. I did like the playing style of the guitar. Anything that resembles the early 90's is fine by me. The guitar reminded me of the midi instrument, but not too much.
I am reminded greatly of Age of Empires, or the Civilization games. I enjoy your work sir, and I give to thee four stars along with a five vote.
Good day sir. Thank you for taking the time to review, it's helpful to understand how you were judging!
To start out - I definitely wanted to try something "different". No point in doing the same old thing that everyone else is doing. Having the same simple theme throughout the piece was done to tie it together - as nice as pure soundtrack is, I prefer to have something to keep a piece together throughout many changes - it's all one piece.
We did indeed already discuss mastering.
When it comes to programs, I would have to disagree with you. While the orchestral instruments in the first few parts were from Edirol and therefore average, the strings, piano, and instruments in the second half were mainly from Omnisphere - I would not call Omnisphere an "average" program. I do agree about the bagpipes, they weren't used realistically. It was not precisely my intention to use them realistically, but I can see how there would be points taken off there, it's a very stylistic choice and so far it's been fairly controversial among people I've shown this to. The guitar was actually one of my lowest-quality instruments, seeing as it was a simple soundfont. The reason it may have sounded higher-quality is because I ran it through two Guitar Rig amps (another VST on the level of Omnisphere).
Age of Empires and Civilization could have easily been some inspiration for the idea of this piece. I'm not sure what really inspired it exactly - it's very rare I manage to pinpoint the original source of inspiration for many of my odd pieces.
I liked it, anyways. I tried to boost your score back up with a five vote, but it seems as though a bunch of crackheads zero voted you into oblivion.
Thanks, Bosa. It's really starting to get annoying with the zero-voters...
I have nothing but adoration for this song. It has that very distinctive 'Awesome' sound! Every instrument you've used aids each other in a subtle, yet satisfying way that really brings out the cheerful theme you were going for. Great work. :D
I shall voteth five, sir.
Oh thanks! Glad you liked it so much. I really appreciate the compliments and everything.
Thanks for the review!
