[Game Boy Space Waltz]

Game Boy Space Waltz

Once upon a time, there was an astronaut. Or was he a farmer? I can't tell! It's too generic! Honestly, you've nailed the retro music genre. However, I could
equally say I'm trying to feed my sheep on a farm. Or getting my first Pokemon from Professor Oak. Or watching chocobos dance. Great start, but not genre specific.

6.0, not quite the genre I was looking for.

WerewNC responds:

Sheep in space. Like the ones that jump over the moon and help you count to sleep at night. You need astronaut farmers to raise those, you know. I was thinkin' "Elite" and "2001: A Space Odyssey" when I decided to go with a fast waltz, but I'll admit I missed the mark on that one.

Thanks for taking the time to judge the competition.

Ahhhhhhh the reverb!!!!!!! Where does one note start, and the other one finish? It almost has the right feeling of space, ALMOST. But that reverb is far too long!
I truthfully don't know what to say about this song. It's very grey in that it has some of those legendary space notes, but it feels like they're all DEAD! Yes,
DEAD. If you slowed this song down by say 20BPM, it'd totally be a funeral song! On the other hand, the drumline is perfect! Great potential, consider keeping within
this genre!

8.7, Reeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeveeeee eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrr rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb

F-Meister responds:

Thanks for the review. I used a factory preset for the main melody - the REVERB came with it. I'll keep that in mind the next time i use it :)

I'm waiting for the song... come on... 1:45 THERE IT IS. Christ that opening dragged on. I mean, come on, it was half the song! It reminds me of my Most Annoying
Song Ever (Chronamut remembers that one). Honestly, your volume on the drums overpowers and drowns out the ENTIRE chorus. This feels more like the ending music to
Donkey Kong Country, am I right? The part where King K. Rool falls to the shipdeck, you get all those corny Kredits (yes, Kredits), and then he jumps back up and
fails miserably at pwning the chimps? Honestly, the song doesn't fit the bill. I like it independently, but I don't get the impression of space.

6.5, good song, wrong genre

Knoxius responds:

yeee =)

Hyperbeat!

daYoshifan responds:

GAHHH

Good, but please try next time to lower the peaks, it seems like it's pushing the spectrum.

FL keys works okay, but try and get some VSTs.

Music wise, I like it.

Lighta responds:

Um what do you mean by peaks?
None of the notes go over C6.

I don't have very good knowledge of FL. I don't actually know how to do the majority of things that it can do.

[Influenced breaks]

Not bad

As said earlier, it is a bit peaking...

Other than that, your slight phasing kinda hurts my head, but has a nice effect.

Kudos

Bento-San responds:

I cant beleive i overlooked that ever so obvious peeking in the volume in those couple of spots before uploading, thanks for pointing that out ! *slaps self*
Turned out being a side effect of the i was using, but a simple change of the note velocity on those notes made for an easy fix.

[*-*SkyScraper HM DTA-R3MIX *-*]

Beautiful

Very little I can say as normally I criticize. But very trippy. I love it!

HouseMasta responds:

k these submissions this month are SO great. Please PM me, your pianos are driving me insane. It's the only instrument I like to work with. I want to know your plugins lol. Sounds awsome, definately putting a good chance for being in the top three. Good luck!

F3NRIZ responds:

(the PMing being done) Thanks, I really appreciate it! I had to make this track in a haste (only a few hours) because I was going to be without my "audio programs" (until the date of closing) and I wished to try to create something with these Midi track. Of course, with little more time, this submission would have been more elaborate... but, for a song made in a short time, I'm not too disappointed of this result. Other than the competion itself, to create an "original" track, of a certain quality and according to the given rules is a good challenge.. I like it! and I certainly will keep an eye on your competitions. Well, thanks again... best luck to all of us!
