Nice!

An interesting piece. I like it! Nice synth work. I especially love the beat. It compliments the great melody quite well.

Thank you very much! Glad to hear that! :]

[Eirun - Covert Ops]

Excellent.

This track makes me think of the original Command & Conquer soundtrack. You remind of Frank Klepacki and his music.

Perhaps you are familiar with "Industrial" from Tiberian Dawn? In any case, this would fit well in Command & Conquer. Quite similar to the music in it.

It would also fit well in an arcade game as well actually. It would fit quite well in a futuristic shoot-em-up game.

Excellent work. Nice blend of oldschool synths. I would dare not touch this as it is perfect as is. Excellent!

Cheers!

Eirun responds:

Thanks, I'm always happy to hear feedback, especially positive! :)

You're right, Jazz Jackrabbit came to mind as I tried to imagine.

[Mega Man X2 - Stage select]

Nice.

You have certainly captured the Megaman X2 feel. Awesome stuff.

Cheers! \m/

[Booster's Swing Club]

Respect.

I am in love with this song. Not only do I love jazz, but Super Mario RPG as well. Super Mario RPG + Jazz = <3

Magnificent! Good sounds throughout. Love the bass most of all. Very groovy.

Nice sax solo there.

One of my all-time favorite songs. This is a definite 10! Cheers!

[Be Thankful]

Happy Thanksgiving 2010!

It's not often I hear a song for Thanksgiving in the Audio Portal.

Listening to this, I imagine a Thanksgiving dinner. Good spirits all around, friends and family having a good time around the table, awaiting the succulent turkey.

Good drum beat, nice piano sound. The piano, although nice, does get a bit repetitive constantly playing note after note after note. Aside from that, it will still enjoyable to listen to.

Good stuff, Kirbyfeur. Cheers!

[{dj-N} Regret]

Beautiful.

Beautiful intro, I must say.

You have done well with EQing. I have no complaints in that area. Excellent balance throughout. Excellent sounds. I especially love the choir. Nice blend of instruments.

~1:53
Beautiful break.

Overall, excellent track. Cheers!

[Megaman IV: Pharaoh Flamenco]

Flamenco!

Interesting style to implement into Pharaohman's theme. Even more interesting is that it works so well. Well done!

Nice, fast pace. You have pulled this off well. Cheers!

KatzuyaSagara responds:

Thanks!!
Sorry if I did not respond immediatly =(
I really wanted to experiment other styles to the songs (this is why Dust Man sounds so...metal-dance tecno mix thingy? xD)
Take Care man

[-Race around the world-]

Epic.

I have come to like your style of DnB vs Orchestra. It's not Waterflame without a battle between the two genres.

I recognize this from Castle Crashers! Your work in Castle Crashers is truly amazing. Great game, great music.

This song is very cheery, very happy. This is the kind of song that makes you deliriously happy. Awesome stuff, Waterflame. Cheers!

[==(Savage Sea)==]

S.O.S.

You are definitely one for imagery. I can imagine a captain at the helm of the ship, looking off into the far distance. The ship is at a stand still; navigation is down, as well as communications, and the engine is stalled leaving the ship and its crew stranded. Whether the men will return home safely is a question that noone can answer.

On to the song itself; Nice synths. They definitely establish the dark, lost atmosphere. Nice drums as well.

~2:12
And indeed a beautiful melody.

Great work, Jonathan! Cheers!

[-[ Funky Loop ]-]

I'm gettin' down to this!

Nothing like some good funk to get you up and moving. Lovin' the wah guitar! Excellent sound!

Great work, both you and sorohanro! Cheers!
