[The Drunk Violinist]

This is really great and imaginative! One of my favourites of yours yet. For me, I think what could really add to this piece would be to build more on the ambience. Some drinking/drunk people related ambience, pub background or drinks and dancing, laughter, foot steps etc. along with the music playing would really take me there! :) Great composition. Good luck!

Everratic responds:

I'm glad to hear from you again!

Thanks for the suggestion, but it doesn't fit with what I had in mind. This is more of a depiction of a recollection of the events during the aftermath than a vivid, real-time depiction. If the latter was my intent, the song would sound extremely different. Also, I don't have high quality sound effects anyway, and I'm reluctant to use them considering someone got DQd.

Thank you for the review :)

[The Watch ft. Ethereal Winds]

It was such a pleasure to finally work with you, finally! <3

[Don't Mean a Thing]

Love this so much.

[Hide the Light]

Very proud of you! You made this in such a short space of time from scratch and got it sounding so amazing. You never fail to impress me. That Valhalla reverb takes your mixing to another realm too.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Aww, thank you! I had a fun time composing it. It's always fun to compose with something else in mind (in this case, an artwork), as it sets some constraints. I find that the constrains really help with inspiration, especially with art like this :)
I am very happy with my purchase of Valhalla indeed!

[Overstimulated and Underperforming]

This is really nice, and I especially enjoy the fact you named the track after me. It's tempting to get the FL app if you can make nice work like this! Fav'd!

This is awesome :) great job WF.

Waterflame responds:

Thanks!

[Autumn Memoirs]

This is super nicely done, I love it. Thanks for sharing! Fav'd.

[Don't Look Back]

Great job! Love the snares in this. I'd say just watch your balance between the instruments. That string melody at 2:14 gets a little buried by the rest but other than that, awesome! :)

Fav'd.

siteml responds:

Thanks! Those snares are my personal favorite for the piece, too - they take the momentum from before and really carry it forward - so instead of slowing down, the piece intensifies and leaves a lot of room to add even more epicness :D As far as that string melody goes, I probably could have boosted it with brass or woodwinds to get some more clarity - but at the same time, I kind of like how it sneaks about - then gets reiterated with the octave-higher repeat into the grand finale. Good catch, though, thanks!

[Alone]

Smooth like butter. I love this.
