This song had WAYYYY MORE techno and trance beats that a soothing song can have. The Mac 08 July contest is to see who has the sadest song.. not the best. I liked the song, but it wasnt sad at all lol.

This was an excellent song with a nice beat and nice piano rhythm. This was very uplifting rather than sad though. It simply doesn't fit the Mac 08 July category. i mean.. lol, you included a heavy synth bass near the end with percussion and took the piano off completely. :D
Not a good song for the Mac 08 contest... since it doesnt fit the category.. BUT A FANTASTIC SONG OVERALL!!! Great job and keep up the nice work with your DJ skills.
I'm impresed. |:) This is something I would hear on a trance radio station. YOU MUST OF STOLEN THIS LOL. WOOTBBQ!!!

Woh man... start all over with this song. For one, the choice of instruments were very bad... Even the notes were off tune. Sorry dude.. you just need to delete this song entirely and start all over. We all make mistakes.. even the big ones.
Author's Response:
"Even the notes are offtune" I was kinda aiming for this, with dissonance in mind. It's meant to be a hard hitting sorrowful piece, not a piece that you go - "Well, that was nice."

This song kind of creeped me out.. and it was veerrryyyy slow. The beginning was just weird.. Shorten the beginning please. This has a good chance of winning the Mac 08 contest simply because it has vocals in it.. thats rare to see. Good luck.

Oh I knew there was a song hiding in with all the piano solos, violins and other stuff.. there was bound to be an original song. BUT.. oh dear lord.. this wasnt very sad! It was more get up and dance you know? It had a nice sadness uplifting spirit sort of thing to it though!
This, out of 40 songs I have seen so far in the Mac 08 July contest, has a really good chance. YES! Keep it up!

Was that a piano duet? Well.. It was a good piano song, but sadly enough, it sounds just like ever other song on the Mac 08 contest. EXCEPT the drums and beats that come in later. Thats a nice touch. Good job. The violins, however, are included in almost every other mac 08 song lol..

Why is it that every... SINGLE... SONG in the whole contest sounds like this? Ok, dont gte me wrong. I am loving all these songs. They sound great and peacful. However, none of them have any origanility in them besidesn the fact that they are all created. Yes I know, you worked very hard with this song.. but you got to make it sound.. different than the rest! DO you know how hard it is to judge 100+ songs that sound exactly alike?
I loved the song itself though. Very sad.. in fact I think THIS ONE has a better chance of winning than the rest of them. How? Mybe by strictly luck. I may never know.
Author's Response:
I believe the answer to that question lies in the expressiveness of the piano itself. It truly has an incredible range in both register and dynamics, allowing it to communicate such a wide breadth of emotions. The ability to combine both melody and harmony simultaneously alone makes it a great option for sad songs. As to why I myself chose it? I'm a pianist and stink at orchestration. :P
I've looked through quite a few of the submissions, actually. I wouldn't say they all sound alike, either. While there may be quite a few solo piano pieces, they are still distinct in the utilized dynamics, registers, tempo, rhythyms, harmonies, chord progressions, and melodies. While this does sound similar in the fact that it is sad, I wouldn't go so far as to say it sounds the same as every other song. I tried to make it original with the way I combined the traits I listed a moment ago. The fact that many submissions are piano solos does not make them all "sound like this". Within the piano, there is an infinite number of ways to create distinctive sounds, styles, and harmonies. Compare a Bach fugue to David Lanz's new age piano solos. There is a very noticable difference setting them apart, though they both be piano songs and sometimes both "sad". I personally wouldn't mind judging dozens of piano solos so long as there is some degree of variation in style. Judging a hundred different songs with the same chord progression in, say, the nocturne form? That may become too monotonous for me. However, I will respect your opinions. After all, I guess your not attacking me or anything. :P This is just my opinion on the matter.
Whatever the case may be, I am glad that you enjoyed the song. I am quite relieved to hear that this may have a decent chance of winning, whether it be luck or not.
Thank you for the review,
~Blaze
