So, this one is really awe-inspiringly calm and cool, and the feeling of the wind is all over the track, which makes it ideal to listen to when you're stressed..
It is obvious that you have put many hours into this, and the result is completely satisfying.
Also, l liked the crescendo at 2:53-2:56, it really impressed me.
Very nice job.
Author's Response:
Thanks for this review (4th today, aesome!) too! This was actually a project that took roughly 4-6 hours to make. I was on a roll that afternoon and just kept it going. It is rare that I work on a track like this for a short time and the quality is top notch. I wanted something to vary in the song first and came up with the 2:10 part and on to give it that extra something to make it special. Thanks for all your reviewing today and watch out for 1 a day for the last bit of the year (some are better than others as some are last year pojects that I don't wanna go back and work on). I made a really cool uplifting trance song 2 or 3 days back and that will be one of the last ones uploaded. Take care.

You know what?
Your author responses make it hard for me to review, because you pretty much say everything there is to say :P
Anyway, the general feeling of the track leaned more towards "calm, relaxing and peaceful" rather than the opposite, but it still had some of it, so the result is very interesting...
By the way, l now feel so stupid about the question l asked on the previous review (about the 12 tracks).
Author's Response:
lol I just responded to the last one, so I answered anyway. Yeah, my responses seem to relay my feelings on the music so it gets tough for some to say things. People usually say "like you said" because I take note and discuss the song. Thanks for this review too!

Relaxing, smooth, dreamy and mystic are only a few of the words that coud describe this track...
Intro is really good, and the track progresses softly, without any brutal stops.
I could definitely see this on a game like Castlevania, and I have to say, it's really professionally made, most of the people who make this sort of stuff get paid for it...by the way, let me ask you something.
You actually submit 12 tracks a month?
How the hell do you manage to do that?
Author's Response:
Well I have been making the songs all this year a little at a time and am now releasing them. Some songs take a few days, but a few only take a few hours (I started 2 last week and finished both within 5 days). I am submitting 1 a day for the las days of the year to meet my New Years Resolution made for this year. I decided to post 12 because of "the 12 Days of Christmas". I have my own "12 Days of Ryukenjin" to end the year. Thanks for reviewing!

I really loved the various effects in this one...from start to end, it was an awesome track that didn't get tiring or repetitive for one single second..unfortunately, its short duration does not allow me to give it more than an eight.
Next time, make something 3 minutes long, and it'll be perfect.
I really like your style...cheers!

I liked how this track stood out from the rest because of its creativity...the effects are not repetitive, and the whole thing is pleasant and, well, almost relaxing, I would say.
The piano was indeed a very nice addition, and the outro was smooth and slow.
On a final note, the only thing that could make this track better would be to add a strong beat and maybe make the effects overlap each other a just a tiny bit less.
Author's Response:
Thanks for the review. Thanks for saying this was creative. This was my first try at a trance/house mix and wasn't sure how it would turn out. I usually like adding a calm vibe to the song to give it a little more balancing and not just all energy or all ambience. I am trying to keep stuff from overlaping, but it seems I like to hear alot in a song so you can catch new stuff even after you have heard it alot of times, so it is hard to find a balance. I am also hoping to finish alot of my songs and then make a Marvel Vs. Capcom 2 disk with my own custom made music (since I own the Dreamcast version I think it is legal, as long as I don't make money off of it). Thanks again for the review!

..don't be pissed off, but l have to say it..this track needs drums :D
Seriously though, if a song lacks drums, it needs a very strong bass to compensate, at there wasn't anything of that sort here..too bad, because it was a nice idea.

I definitely enjoyed it, and the nostalgia feeling is definitely there...what this track lacks is...duration!
You needed to make this at least four times as long for it to be a full track...please make a full version of this, it's really awesome!
Author's Response:
lol i will, im expecting a new practice amp to record with soon, so i don't want to get too ahead of my self lol

Very powerful song, you can "feel" it, very nice guitar and bass...although the audio quality is not very good if you turn the volume up, and that's a pity...also, you could've come up with a better title than "Just some metal", don't you think?
Can't wait for the final version, PM me when it comes out so I can review it.
Author's Response:
I find it very difficult to make the guitar quality better than this :(
I hope to find a way to make it better some day.
The song will get a name when the lyrics has been written :) And I really suck at making up names for my songs... So to me, this is just some metal I want to play with my band.
I will tell you when a final version comes out!
Thanks.

It was really good party music, perfect for dancing or I don't know what other party stuff...
It could also be good movie music, during an action scene or something...very nice job.
Author's Response:
lol thnx, I'm not too sure what it would go well with either... :/
and not a drug party lol it'd have to be more trippy lol

I liked the mixing of the piano with the effects, but the track was too repetitive and it never had any actual change in its beat or feeling.
You should make something like this, but with a more intricated melody and more effects.
Author's Response:
i agree with what you said about the beat but not with what you said about feeling.
yeah this was a test it took me like two hours to make, i dont really like working with melodies like that they usually just come to me. There is no creativity with melody most the time, just composition.
