[Project 26 ~ 2 (Auron)]

Despite not remembering the song itself, I like it

Can't say it gets a full 10 from me, but hey, like drawing, music is not art if it doesn't have flaws. Regardless, I like what you're doing here. Just try not to overwork yourself, lol. It's gotta be hard to do 52 projects over the year.

Overwork myself? Hell, we didn't work hard enough on this one! xD

Thanks for your review, Shawn. :D

[S|E|P|H|I|R|O|T|H]

Total... eargasm...

Truly perfected! I can't say it better than that! Truly perfected, over all these years of waiting! I've waited a long day for this day to come, and now... Judgment Day has arrived!

This is a masterpiece, to say the least!

paradiddlesjosh responds:

I might do a "Judgment Day" mix sometime in the future... Hell, I'm thinking of doing a project a week next year on FF7 tunes (minus some of the ones I've already done) or maybe even FF8 tunes.

But yes, I wholeheartedly agree, SSJ! :D

Thanks for your review. :D

[MD2010 - War Theme]

Dude..

I seriously envy your skill, man. I don't think I can create anything quite as epic as this. This is just freaking amazing, as are all the others I've reviewed.

Step responds:

Thanks a million man. I really appreciate all of these reviews!

[MD2010 - War Theme #2]

Whoa.

Once again, I am witness to music of epic proportions. This is just absolutely amazing. You're really starting to make me wish I was better. LOL.

Step responds:

Haha don't worry. Your music is awesome.

And I use East/West, so it's not a fair fight :P.

Thanks for the review!

[Chaoz Fantasy Rock/Orch.]

Holy friggen crap...

I never thought this would be able to be turned into an orchestral/rock song, but you certainly proved me wrong! It came out REALLY well, I must say!

Step responds:

Yeah, this is basically my style of music. Mixing orchestral with rock is definitely what I enjoy doing most.

Thanks for the review; again, I owe you one for all these reviews!

[Cobra]

I am blown away...

Immediately when it started, I was hooked. I demand you give me a link to what you used! Send me a PM with that link!

Anyway, onto the actual review. Immediately when this piece began, I loved it. It could definitely be used to make an epic battle scene, even if it's a short scene. I love the song, it's awesome, and it's just totally insane.

Step responds:

Hey, you reviewed this too? Man, I really appreciate it :). Now I can relate to what you're saying xD.

Yeah I'm very proud of this. It's one of my first tracks ever made with East/West Symphonic Orchestra, yet it still remains among my best tracks IMO.

If you're a fan of these battle themes, I have loads more...

To name a few...

Not expecting you to review them if you don't want to though, just posting them here if you're interested ;).

Anyhow, thanks for another great review! I'll PM you with what I used.

[Failed Boss Fight Idea]

You are indeed a liar.

You say this sucks, but that is a total, utter lie. This is an amazing piece you have going here. I'd use it in a fight scene. Honestly, I really would!

DarkShadow166 responds:

NO YOU! :P.

But yeah, this sucks IMO. At least compared to my other songs. This is what I can make when it comes to epic boss fights :P.

Anyway, I appreciate the review. Glad you enjoyed it!

[Zelda Cover WIP v2]

Dude, I just about nearly peed in my pants.

This song, or rather, song compilation, is just... damn, it's epi.. no, Epic doesn't even BEGIN to describe it! It's awesome, and it's not even finished yet?! Oh my god, I think next time I might actually die from the awesomeness!

Burn7 responds:

HA! Well don't DIE. Then I'll miss out on reading your review! And really, it's one of the reasons I even write music: To check people's reactions.

[Wild and Aggressive]

Didn't sound too much like heavy metal.

But nevertheless, it's still pretty interesting. 9/10, 5/5

Aggressiveness responds:

Thanks. We're gonna change our sound soon, but we won't sound totally different. The songs will be shorter and our songs might start to get a bit faster, but that's pretty much it.

[FFIX Battles Rox (Pixels Mix)]

I'm gonna have to be honest here.

This didn't REALLY live up to its predecessor, but that doesn't mean it's not good! You just need to tweak a few things, and it'll be a bit better. And even though a certain SOMEONE thinks some of my takes on his versions of songs are better than his, I still say his are far beyond my level of talent and skill. That goes for you, Josh!

Anyways, my point is, it rocks, but I have to say Josh's original take is still better than this. Still, it's pretty kick-ass.

pixelseph responds:

Thanks for the review!

I know levels need to be rearranged and some EQs need fixing, but the next one will be better. I promise. :3

I listened to some of your tracks today, actually, and I wouldn't go around knocking your artistic ability. "Fearless" is a great track in itself, and I personally think that if you can replicate your process of what you wanted from it, you'll find you have some more listeners in your Favorite Audio list. :D
