Good piece, not too fast, not too slow. The flute gives it an ambient feel while the drums maintain a firm sense of intensity. A sense of good and evil almost.

The flute was very fitting and very well done. It really gave this song it's strength in a way. Despite the flute not being something as epic sounding as the drums, it still manages to achieve the effect.

Keep up the good work, hope you do well in the contest =D

hello Warchamp7!

It is a strange that you would bring up the flute as giving it the pieces strength. The original file did not intend to have a flute, in fact, it didn't have any kind of melodic layering. What you hear the first 22 or so seconds was pretty much it, with percussion and chord differences along the way.

Thankfully I decided last minute it needed something more, and put on the flute. I am glad I made the right choice, thanks to the opinion of a few friends.

Thank you for the review, I am glad you liked it, thanks again for the luck!

It's almost fun >.>

Great work with this peace. It had a calm feel to it while still maintaining a dominant sense of intensity. The vocals definately gave it a darkish feel.

Despite the repeating of the backgrounds drums, they still don't get too repetitive. The side melody sounded really good and blended well with the rest of the song. The Main melody definately helped with the intense, epic feel.

Great work with this piece, looks very nicely. Keep up the awesome work

hello again Warchamp7!

I am glad you felt there was an intensity to this piece, for that is what I was going for. The song was inspired by the famous poem written by Dylan Thomas, titled "Do Not Go Gentle Into That Good Night". A brilliant read, I would highly recommend you do, please visit

I will XD

It turned out really good. I like the drums (Or is it a synth) that comes in every once in a while. It gave it sort of an abstract effect to it. Very well organized. I liked the percussion sections a lot, they had a very nice vibe to them.

The main melody was very nice sounding, the violin had a mix of epic yet calm feel to it.

The entire piece sounds really good, it also loops wonderfully. Keep up the good work and good luck in the competition :)

Thanks again Warchamp7 for your reviews!

The drums in this piece are currently my biggest achievement. They are my most diverse and punishing percussion to date, and I hope to be able to learn how to make it even more demanding, even MORE severe >:D!!!

One day...

To be honest, I don't quite like how the loop ends, I was debating on changing it for the longest time, but somehow decided to keep it. I kinda regret that choice, but the song still works as is, so I will have to keep it like this.

Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it ^^.
