[Zafer-- Tribute of XEPHER]

(title in work)

Hmm...I am very familiar with the song, as it is one of the only really good songs in Supernova, and the tribute wasn't too bad. I loved how you started with the lyrics, which are always interesting to try and find out what they say.

The rest of the song sounded like it could have come out of the game DOOM. It has that same 8-bit quality to it. I was a little disappointed that you didn't really change a whole lot here from the original song other than making it from different instruments.

[//Spanish Intrustion [Fire]]

(title in work)

I guess East coast music is techno or something? Never heard that before, but whatever. The song sounded very similar to your other spanish song, which didn't make this too exciting. In fact, once it got going, it was hard to tell the difference. A good song nonetheless, just try and mix it up a bit.

[Spanish Inspiration [Cardiac]]

(title in work)

I thought this was very well done overall. It definitely had a spanish sound to it, which I'm not really interested in most of the time, but to be completely impartial, it wasn't too bad. The only thing I didn't like was the beginning where your talking. That really made me pessimistic about this song.

[Man In the Smoking Mirror]

(title in work)

Excellent! I love it! You started with a very calm and ambient feel to this song, and then it changed into an intense D&B track, which I found to be very professionally made and constructed. You varied the song throughout and did a very nice job on an extended length song.

WritersBlock responds:

Cheers, man. Yeah, I'm really glad about how clean and slick this turned out. I'm trying to apply this level of production towards other genres, get a bit of a higher standard going on in my music.

Another excellent jazz song! I really like the very prominent bass guitar played throughout. It's also cool how the song starts off pretty calm, then gets more exciting, and falls back down to being very calm. This song has a really neat sound to it. Great job as always!

JCsoul responds:

Hey milinko, thanks for your comments man!

The bass is actually a Double Bass, a bass guitar would sound more electronic (even if it was fretless).
But I´m glad you liked it.

Another very good Jazz song you have here. It's got more of a sad tone to it, unlike most of your other songs. I really enjoy the piano work you have done here. Lots of variation throughout, and you even through in sax, which should definitely be in more of your songs.

I also like your signature addition to electronic sounds into your Jazz. I think it is what really makes it stand out.

Another very awesome Jazz piece from you, Jurian! Even though it's your first, it still sounds very professional and carefully made. I like how you are able to combine the piano sounds of Jazz with the R&B of a techno song. It's a very nice combination, I love it!

[~Terrestrial~ FULL]

(title in work)

This is pretty awesome! This definitely doesn't really sound terrestrial to me though...more extraterrestrial! But anyway, the song is still great. The percussion throughout is pretty interesting. It's kind of intense in spots. You change the song up throughout, so it's never really boring throughout the entire four and a half minutes. Keep up the good work.

[Green, Piano(NB Remastered)]

(title in work)

Well, a remastered version of one of the best songs I've ever heard on the NG Audio Portal. I have no choice but to give it the best of praise. I think I will replace this one on my favorites with the old one.

I guess what I love so much about this song is just the mood that it puts me in. It's so calming and happy sounding. I love it, keep up the good work.

[In teh Dungeon]

(title in work)

Hmm...At first I wasn't really getting a dungeon feeling from this song, but after listening to it a few times, I think I can feel it now. I'm still not really sure about the instruments and sounds you used to make this song. It just sounds weird when finally put together, and not really all that 8-bit to me.
