[[TC] Full Flight (instrumental demo)]

Wow very cinematic and epic. It really paints a picture of soaring through the sky. Its all rather beautiful, 3 years is along time but i think its paid off with what you have so far. My only concern would be losing the momentum when dropping into full Trance mode but what you have so far is really great not a lot to critique that i can think of. Great work man

TranceCrafter responds:

re-reading this comment now. I like that you get my whole approach is either in "orchestral mode" or "trance mode" but also there will be "dnb mode" and "dubstep mode" and maybe even "singing mode" :D

[Osman - "Nailgun"]

Nice, very well produced. You took this lots of different places, the whole breakdown midway through is very dreamy lol I really enjoyed this! Only critique would be the sound of the brass hits but its only minor issue and me being picky haha. Good work!

RetromanOMG responds:

Hey, thank you for the feedback! I'm glad you liked the song!

[Cage of Memories]

Great instrumentation, the whole song sounds very emotionally driven and urgent. Everything just comes together and flows really well, i even like that it loops at the end.

zybor responds:

Thank you for your response :)

[Silver Stained]

Awesome bass lines indeed. Great flow to the whole song, i love the almost spookyness to the whole thing but its alright if you just keep dancing lol

Coffee-Break responds:

Thanks man. I appreciate it.

[Loud and Spooky]

Catchy, i can definitely see some cool stuff done with this

Zeekyboogydoog responds:

Thanks!

[Sidewinder (Coffee-Break cover) XD]

Hell yeah man! That's all i got to say

RobSoundtrack responds:

Thanks dude!

[Coliseum]

This is great! Gives a real sense of heroism and fight for the top. The pan flute sounds so good, i really like that sound. I'm not sure the cymbal needs to be replaced in my opinion just instead of every measure make it every two measures. Replacing the sound with something else won't help too much i would say. But its up too you! lol i really like the track regardless. Keep it up!

DreyLand responds:

Hi,
Thanks for the review! I'll try both of your advice and I'll keep what I think is the best. Anyway,
I'm really happy you like it,
Thanks a lot! :)

[Metanil]

Very easy going piece in a almost dizzily surreal way, just in the way the piano almost sways back and forth. Cool work, i like it! Sad you didn't win, perhaps next time. Keep it up!

BuzzkillSquad responds:

Thank you, that means a lot :)

[WHACK YO]

You nailed it as a loop, i can keep listening for awhile. I like it!

Zazzy responds:

But looping is like, the easiest thing when exporting a track. You just gotta make sure there's no pause before or after the loop. Thanks!

[Zone 2 - Pengonia Jungle (Map Theme)]

This is really cool! I find it interesting that you are creating a video game with the music first, not the other way around. Its awesome that you have the story all planned out but the only way to create the world right now is through music. I like what you're doing anyway haha, i've been working on a video game soundtrack as well, so this is cool to see. Keep it up!

DreyLand responds:

Hi,
I think you said it all! these words make me so happy, I'm really glad that you understand it!
Indeed, the story and game design are already done and most of the soundtracks too! I still developping it, it take a lot of time, but I am really passionate and I want to share this passion with all of you! :)
I'll check your soundtracks, maybe we could help each other then! :)
Thanks for your review and for the 5 stars!
