Futile Wishes is awesome.

[heprea (#51849)]

Gotta say that I enjoyed listening Futile Wishes.

[FH (#140519)]

Thanks for the comments, keep 'em coming.

I absolutely love the Guitar Sample, it sounds like a fight theme for an RPG.
Incantation of Paradoxes really reminds me of Dir en grey, which is not a bad thing at all.
Futile Wishes sounds like the ending theme of an RPG.

Good stuff - sounds like what I would want in my game. :]

(I requested an add by the way, 'QBasic')

Request accepted, comment added to your page.

You're not the first one to say my music reminds of video game music.

No criticism from anyone yet? They can't be flawless...

[shulin (#140572)]

[FH (#140519)]

It is copyrighted as my work, but I haven't done any paper work if that's what you're meaning.

Futile Wishes is really great! I never heard it before and
I was so entertained by it when I listen to it. Thanks for sharing.
Keep up the good work!

Listened to "Futile Wishes" and the "Guitar Sample". Very nice stuff (especially considering you don't have any equipment of you own). Keep it up!

As for suggestions, one thing which I found was that the "mood"/"feel" of the guitar sample kept changing rapidly. So the song started with an "alternative" feel and then progressed to a "darkish" theme. If I am not mistaken there were 4-5 separate movements. It would be awesome if these movements could be made longer and linked with interludes. I would give the same suggestion for "Futile wishes" - the individual pieces in themselves were awesome (reminded me of Erik Satie's works like Gymnopédie) and I was left wanting for more.

[Rosepetals (#42525)]

I meant to comment on your pieces earlier FH, but I have to say I'm really impressed. Like most have said here, I think "Futile Wishes" is very well done - I loved it on first listen. I'd actually agree with Avalanche that if you could even extend the length of the movements, constructively speaking, I think it could be taken a lot farther. I also see the Opeth inspirations in your Guitar Sample and found it quite fitting.

"Incantation of Paradoxes" does sound industrial to me, so I think you hit on the right direction of what it could classify, though it seems to have a mix of other elements as well.

[FH (#140519)]

Thanks Avalanche and Rosepetals for your comments, exactly what I wanted to hear.

Truth to be told, Guitar Sample was mixed in about 3 hours, which is a very short time. It's also a demo, I wouldn't dare to call it anything else. Vocals would probably make the movements more natural and I'm hoping to find someone who's good at writing lyrics when school starts again. I would record everything in the 1 million € studio, so don't expect it to end here.

Futile wishes seems unexpectedly popular. I might add the 2nd piece, which is supposed to be in the same soundtrack.

[Avalanche (#92065)]

[FH (#140519)]

[Avalanche (#92065)]

Naah, its quite interesting. And by the way, I thought when you meant school you meant 'grade school' as in 10th, 12th standard and all that.

Still, its quite interesting. Let us know when you have more stuff ready!

[Cobretti (#32610)]

Guitar sample didn't impress me too much. Overall I thought it was somewhat disoriented... jumping around with no common thread. The organ didn't fit it imo, felt like I was watching the Addams Family or something.
I think by using the right parts (like the very first one) of the song and building on them it could be way better. Then again, maybe I'm the wrong person to comment since I don't dig that kinda music (Opeth and such).

Incarnation was pretty nice. However, I found the recurring contrast between the smooth and rough parts kinda awkward. The smooth parts I enjoyed a lot, they kinda reminded me of Awesome. The rougher ones I didn't fancy as much.

I have to agree with many others on Futile Wishes, I really like it! Leaves you wanting for more, feels like it's cut short. When the foundation is strong you can let the music be simple and sweet and it just works. ^_^

Maybe I was a bit harsh, but I wanted to give you some criticism as well to maybe give you new ideas if needed. Overall the songs are good. With the right target group I'm sure all of them work like a charm. Keep up the good work!

[sakurafice (#142452)]

lol...futile wishes would really fit nicely into an romace/drama anime...


other than that, you should probably ask this in a music-based forum...(unless you already have ^_^;)
