Loved it

Hey, nice work on this one! Good work especially on finding the correct harmonies used ingame. I also liked the sound of your flutes (or whatever that actually is... Only you know for sure). The phrasing sounds awesome, too. Must have taken a good deal of time to get this as well as you did.

Just a few nit-picking pointers off the top of my head:

- I don't know if its just me or my speakers or something, but the majority of harmony strings seem a touch flat. Maybe the soundfonts were intended originally for another key or something, I'm not sure. They just sound a bit off.

- That high hat/cymbal/whatever that is; I know it's already been mentioned, but a snare with some pop in it would do a bit better here. Even try a tambourine for a little bit, that wouldnt be too bad. Also, since its basically the only percussion in this song (something you also might want to reconsider), don't hold back on the dynamics. Drum dynamics are very, very effective in pieces like this and are often over looked.

- Maybe I'm wrong on this one, but isn't the tempo a bit faster ingame? I seem to think its around 10 BPM(ish) higher, but it's not like I have RS running atm to actually check.

Well, there you go. Aside from my minor suggestions, this piece was very well done.

9/10, 5/5 (and that's quite rare from me).

I'm disappointed that you're done with making RS music, but I can understand why. Random question time - what music software do you use? Fruity Loops?

Good luck in the future!

Haha wow thanks alot for the long review, Its not everyday I get one of these. Yeah it took me some long hard hours to get the harmonics and notes right and even better than the original I would think and I the original was like 10-12 BPM and this one is like 9-11 BPM, Also I'm not totally done with remaking Runescape music tracks, I'm just working on original music tracks for a while and yes this is Fruity Loops. Thanks alot for the review it was greatly aprieciated ;)

Hmmm.

I don't really know what to say. I love Runescape to death, but I just plain hate the original song here. This version is much better than the original, of course, but I still don't care too much for it. You did a great job with it, and it sounds much improved, but I guess in the end it just comes down to personal taste. =\

Because you worked hard on it (yeah, I noticed that, it IS over four minutes), 8/10, 4/5. I'd LOVE for you to continue with a few more RS songs - I loved your mix of the main theme, man.

JakesFable responds:

Yeah It was the hardest to get the time right out of all my remakes and I'm happy it turned out better than the original, Thanks alot for the review and glad you liked my main theme remade ;)

Well done.

Truely epic. I love the bells in particular - they add an extra special bit of dramatic flair.

10/10, 5/5.

DavidOrr responds:

Bells and Chimes are such wonderful instruments- I don't think they're used enough in writing.

Awesome!

I'll be extremely happy when you redo this with different instruments, as you said you would. Not that I dont already love this, but it'd be even better with different ones.

I intend to make a mix of the theme song, homescape, and newbie melody (3 songs blended into one). I'd love for you to check it out once its finished =)

10/10, 5/5.

Runescape FTW (I'm a level 103 member, account name is Remotecube if you were wondering).

JakesFable responds:

Sweet and I hopefully I might soon, Thanks alot for the review ;)

Hey, uh

Give me the sheet music and I'll ship you my first born child. Yes? No?

10/10, 5/5.

Try again...

The beginning sounded awesome. But the drumming literally destroyed it. No one is going to cut you slack (especially after 6 solid years of learning, as you made us aware) for something THAT off.

The rhythm was way off at parts, the drums themselves sounded AWFUL (I've heard better sounding 8 bit drums...), the accents werent even CLOSE to sensible, and it was far, far too repetitive. The song seemed to follow absolutely no order and just jumped all over the place without a second thought.

Oh, I want you to do me a little favor. Scroll up above your enormously huge and completely unneeded author's comment and read what it says under "Licensing Terms". Noone has to ask your permission for ANYTHING, genious. There is absolutely NOTHING you can do about it anyways. What're you gonna do - call up YouTube and complain because someone used your song without permission and expect them to delete his account? Hi, welcome to the internet, MILLIONS of videos use songs "without permission", you need to get over yourself.

And yeah, Einstein, having your trebble and bass at the normal levels while you make music like the majority of your listeners do is probably a good move.

4/10, 2/5. If this played in a club, I'd go home.

Quarl responds:

lol. First I'll mark you're review as abusive. Then I'll wait for a few more sensible people to do the same. Then your review will be worthless, and you'll have waisted your time with all that. While the creative commons prevents me from taking action against those who use my production according to those laws, it is still illegal for them to take my productions and use them to gain money and that's really what I'm worried about.

Also, you obviously know nothing about rhythm. It doesn't have to be in 4/4 for it to be right. In fact, some of the best rhythms jump in and out of their time signatures in order to produce staggering effects. Ignorance.

Hah.

It's about time something from PW made the first page of the video game genre.

No objections here!

5/5, 10/10, downloaded

Astounding.

If you have the sheet music, I'd give you my left arm for it. Well, maybe my left leg, since I'd need the arm to play it properly!

The dynamics were especially incredible, and everything sounded spot on. I cant believe it was a live recording.

5/5, 10/10.

I'll be watching for your new works!

Reasoner responds:

Thanks for the review. Sorry I don't have the sheet music,,,,but I appreciate your eagerness to learn it.

Amazing.

You captured my heart in the process.

Still, its looking pretty bad today, Martha.

You don't?

I do.

Totally off beat, out of sync, poorly mixed, the melody is muddled and unsure, way too much reverb, etc. Try again, because if tweaked, it could be amaing. Everything to do with PW is amazing, with some work.

When all hope is lost, There is Newgrounds...
