pfff

mostly overrated if you ask me, its the same little thing looped over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over and over again, sure the intensity changes slightly here and there but thats just it.

The only thing good about this track is the quality of the instrumentation.

Well, We can't please everyone can we? ^_~. Other people seem to like it so i guess we're doing something right.

Could you please go

and find some guy who makes 16bit games for like PSN (i mean castle crashers was also on psn) and make the music for a game for PSN.

I want to play a game with your music in it.

Greets -cal.

p.s. not as good as the weird ruins but still good.

SPIDERLEGS

instantly 5ed and favorited.
This is the filthy awesem.

If my life was a game, this could be one of the themes playing.

I swear to god this is so great man, im going to listen to this again tomorrow.

EmperorCharlemagne responds:

Glad you liked... wait, if this is your theme, does that make you a weirdo?? :-p

As to you comment, I too was a Nintendo boy growing up- I only really grew to love Genesis sound recently, after hearing some different soundtracks (like Thunder Force IV, Michael Jackson's Moonwalker, and the Adventures of Batman and Robin... all amazing OSTs).
Wanted to try my own hand at it ya see...

The lyrics to one of the manliest songs on Newgrounds, provided by a manly man.

no offence meant but probably will be

why this is in the top of all time is a mystery to me, this whole track is extremely, let me repeat that.. extremely boring.

the same three chords are repeated endlessly without any further melody, nor any elaboration or accentuation with only a MEAGER percussion at the end.

yes, thats the best thing about it and it only lasts 6 whole seconds.

unbelievable that something like this even got attention at all.

:l

Doumaaa responds:

Sometimes simplicity is beauty ;). Well it's your opinion so thanks for that. I agree it doesn't change much and could use a lot of fixing, but it's just a melody that came to mind when first trying to record piano and then adding guitar layers. The drums at the end were just for fun, I was (and still am) learning my way in fruity loops.

meh

its ok, the beginning reminds me alot of wrath of the black manta for some reason, most of the track is a bit bland, not alot going on to make it interesting sadly.

DJPureSuffer responds:

Never heard wrath of black manta, ill go check it out. thanks for the review :)

a little bland

and why do you always do cool stuff at the very end. :'[
no, its still much better than what most people upload on the ng i think im just used to things that are more elaborate than this from your hand. :)
Its solid though.

EmperorCharlemagne responds:

Sometimes I just get a simple melody that i have to churn out...

Thanks for the honest opinion- I'll try to spice things up on my next Genesis piece.

sounds more like a intro than a track

Its rather basic, and has a bit to much reverb if you ask me but that might be my own preference, i personally hardly ever use any.

It does pull me in believing theres something coming after but it just ends, thats a shame cause like i said in the summary, it comes over as a intro.

Shiroah responds:

Yeah, it needs continuation, i agree. Maybe I'll make some later) Thanks for a review.

i like the organ

this shows your not a bad composer you just sometimes make bad songs (space bugs).

You should keep making music like this, its pretty cute.
Oh and very realistic rock drumming, thats something i cant do. :)

F4LL0UT responds:

Thanks for the comment and for the high rating. Well, I don't really want to stick to any kind of genre but who knows, maybe in future I will do more stuff like this. It actually completely depends on what kind of jobs I will get since most of the music I make is for video games.

Btw: It's funny that you took the Space Bugs theme as an example for a bad song because it was much better received than this one. Personally I also wouldn't ever admit that the Space Bugs theme is bad. True, it's not a masterpiece, but I think that it's a good piece, especially as part of the game that I composed it for.

Anyhow: Thank you very much for being my first reviewer. :)
