Awesome composition, I can feel the despair. I like how it sounds rather classical, there was similar music in one of the Dungeon and Dragon games, in the realm of vampires and stuff, it was awesome. You only lose points for the weak attack times of your instruments that you clearly hear when there are fast notes, you should have reduced the attack time of your instrument to have better fast melodies. That's the only complain I have, great job.

samulis responds:

Ya, I was trying to find a sound in EWQL that was sweet and lyrical, partially sacrificing the attack for that particular feel. I am glad you liked the style. :)

Really nice slow progression but sadly you lose points on the weak samples, sounds like a midi track from the 90s haha That would have been pretty damn awesome recorded with real instruments or at least with decent samples. I love the composition but yeah, points lost on samples.

Jiimaan responds:

hey!

I'm glad you liked it overall...

and yes, samples are always a weak point of my pieces...
but what do ya know, I'm poor, so I have to deal with what I have...

maybe someday...

as for real instruments, I was out of time (and had some fuc*ing major issues with my violin)

anyways, thanks for reviewing

That's a great song but a couple things turn me off when considering the theme of the contest. Alright, irish is celtic, I'll give you that, but a funny song about large lady hands doesn't do it for me haha But still, that's rather subjective and the song is sung and played pretty darn goshdarnit well! You should have had a better irish accent ;) Anyway, great one!

SonicWombat responds:

I guess you're right. My audience was more aimed at really weird people (like my sister), and not punk-rock guitar gods, but I'm still really glad you liked it. |:D

Awesome composition! Great recording too! This is really awesome! Ya got the irish in ya lad! Major props on composition and playing. Some flaws in the guitar tracks but nothing too serious.

NAC Judge
Awesomely celtic! But you do lose points on the quality of your samples, especially when it comes to sample repeats, the synth nature of the samples becomes way too apparent. Great composition with various segments, that's a good one, just not perfect.

silencefreedom responds:

Thank you a lot for the comment.

Slightly celtic, sounds more like adventure-ish than celtic, mostly due to non celtic samples. Still a great composition, it just falls short on the contest's theme.

Wurfel-Waffles responds:

I agree. it's off themed. Thank you a lot Evil-Dog.

NAC Judging:
Overpowered mix and rather uninvolving. The melodies seem to go from A to Z within any kind of connection. The clap is pretty shitty as well. I'd say this is a pretty odd composition which doesn't make me fall in love with it or fall love in any way. The second half is better but the damage is already done and we're going forward in odd-land. From 2:15, it was pretty sweet though, if the song would have been built around a better progression, it could have worked a lot better. The ending doesn't save the song. Great effort though.

Valtanen responds:

Thanks for the review. But now I don't know what to think about the clap. :/

I like your critisism even if I don't be exactly in same opinion. :)

The melodies have some kind of connection to me, for instance. For response I will say the band Queen. How about them? :D

NAC Judging:
Great intro, great overall track, the mix and the drums are a bit weak though. Great composition though, but I don't know if it really fits in that contest.

NAC Judging:
Man, this starts like every freaking wedding dance track. I see what you were going for but a lack of power and diversity made it fail, not a hard fail, just a little fail. The mix is a bit weak and some of the melodies are kinda off and weird. Still a pretty good attempt.

xxxZigZagxxx responds:

Thanks bro. Pretty much my sentiments too. Doesn't represent me as a whole.

NAC Judging:
Right from the start, all I noticed is the bad saturated mix. Don't let your music peak man, that's music making 101. Now with the song, the actual music is pretty cool and the vocals are decent. I don't know if it connects well with the contest theme though. Has not fallen in love with it.

Hey there! My real name is Marco Arsenault, I've been making music and games for a while now, I hope you enjoy my stuff ! In fact I order you to enjoy my stuff! :D If you wanna join the Punk-o-matic community, come to punk-o-matic.net and register
