This track's velvety, like a brownie. Seriously the instrumentation and the phasing in-and-out make this track feel immersive and flowing. I do feel the Mirror's Edge vibe in this track. Thanks for sharing! Few people have the talent to make the key of C major sound less like a nursery rhyme and more like a legitimate artistic statement.

This is a creative improv. on your own theme. Sure, it's not menancing and fuzzy like the original keygen/chiptune version. Nonetheless, shows that you really played throse notes into the computer at the time. Also, the chosen ornaments and variations in counterpoint were a little predictable and somewhat lackluster at times for me except one of the later variations where the bass line was literally the bass line from the original. That was a fine quote to the original. Nonetheless, thanks for sharing as this was enjoyable to listen to.

Filled with energy! Plenty of variation to keep the listener on edge too. That Gabe the Dog tho...

he a good boi

I have a feeling Liszt inspired this one. The wash of arpeggios scattered all over and that baritone melody trying it's best to scream throughout this entire length of this fantasy. Worth the wait. Thanks for sharing again adaMills. Say, does anyone tune your piano every so often? Your piano never sounds out of tune.

adaMills responds:

I use a Yamaha DGX-640. older model, but the piano sound is pretty good. got those hammer weights in it too, so it's got a good feel to it as well.

A somber but lovely track. Would definitely make fun atmospheric music or like a mina menu like the below poster said. Good work, thanks for sharing sharpnova.

I'm hopping on the encouragement train too. Holy smokes, I didn't hang out on the audio portal when it first came out, I did flash cartoons when I was a teen. Oh no, I don't know anything about wrist slitting, that's bad. You should do whatever you're set on as long as it doesn't hurt anyone. If you want to make music again and it makes you happy, you should.

These days, the audio portal's about giving constructive criticism and helping others and complimenting on the good things in their art. Check out this review I got on one of my tracks. https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/755447 That's about as harsh as I've received when I submitted music here in the last five months.

You do you sharpnova. Thanks for sharing your music.

sharpnova responds:

Don't worry. The score wasn't because of the shitty song lol. It was purely because of the epic and completely successful trolling I do around here :) The low score (wish it were lower) was always a badge of pride for me.

First of all regardless of what anyone else says if you created art and it somehow expressed what you set out to express, then it matters not what anyone else says. No one needs anyone else's approval.

Now for the actual review. If this is some form of satire, then you're a genius. The simple chord progression, followed with the robot statement. "Suck my peepee"; that's a gut-buster right there. It's funny and it does sum up a lot of the simple trance music you can find. As a parody, I enjoy this. Although ditto on the general consensus here; if this was a serious attempt at a song then it's lacking. Maybe if you took another crack at this and made the suck it statement after a big drop or something that'd make it hilarious in my opinion.

There's a place in the world for this kind of music. Thanks for sharing sharpnova. You gave me a giggle.

sharpnova responds:

it was supposed to be my magnum opus. a culmination of four decades of experience in the music industry and fiery conclusion of what many considered to be a great talent.

if it was only funny as a joke but lame as a serious piece... then my life is without meaning.

tl;dr: finally someone had the brains to take it for what it was :p

Love that tango rhythm and the use of the synth at the beginning. Nothing more jiggy than a tango in D minor :) Violin coming in with those sweeping phrases. Driving in a car at midnight is what comes to mind with this song. Good work I0TA, thanks for sharing.

zybor responds:

No problem :). Happy Xmas.

A simple feel good chord progression. There's definitely time for post-hardcore music. Fun guitar phrases and that synth at the end and the out-of-phase effects seem to express whatever is was you're expressing with this. Good work! It's ambient for sure. Say, ddi you play the guitar parts for this?

endKmusic responds:

Thanks for the review and listening. :)
Ye, didn't want to overcomplicate, this was more of panning/stereo excercise throughout the song, and it went pretty good so I decided to finish it.
Yp, an old classical guitar that I've had for over 15 years.
Vocals with more wet than dry sound (obviously :D) and some of the percussion stuff are recorded too.

Cliche accomplished. The recording is very clean and crisp. The lyrics are very funny. Is it just me, or are you doing more "spoken" type a singing? Like when you just exhalt a pitch within your speaking voice. Great work Troisnyx!

Troisnyx responds:

Cheers. For the singing style, it is a more spoken type, yes.

The first passage has a jazzy feel. I play clarinet so I enjoyed it when the clarinet came in :) The second passage... seemed to hard cut too much for my taste. If the classical sound was what you're going for, then it's seems you got a more jazzy/contemporary sound.

As long as you've expressed what you wanted too with your music, then you've accomplished your goal and you need not the approval of others. As far as my opinion for the comments sections, I think this track was somber and perhaps could use some sort've smoother transition between sections or maybe a more shocking hard cut that doesn't sound like you switched radio stations, rather more like WHAM you just got hit with change boi! Usually a tutti fortissimo diminished or augmented chord or even an atonal section does just that.

Your composing skill is apparent, don't give up if you truly enjoy this endeavor. Keep sharing on NG, we'll all add in our two cents when we can and do appreciate the work you provide. Thanks for sharing rockossss :)

I used to animate flash cartoons as a teen, but now I compose contemporary orchestral and classical music. Instruments I Play Guitar, Ukulele, and Clarinet/Bass Clarinet.
