I have definitely heard that base tune before, I forget where, but that is NOT an original piece, from :28 - :54, anyway. If I'm mistaken then it's a great track and I'm completely sorry. Nice work with the different sounds thrown in there. Way to repetitive for my tastes, though. The whole track was basically two things and that's it. End of story. A few more parts here and there would be great, good luck to you.

well thanks for that, your right, you have heard that before, its from alice deejay's: better off alone... which is precisely why the title is better off alone (remix) and why i have stated in the description that it is an alice deejay:better off alone REMIX!!!!
now thats out of the way, your right about the repetition, i made the song with vocals in mind, so im on the lookout for the a capella of the original to splice in much like my 'wheres your head at/mr vain' remix.
but i think that void and repetition will go when i introduce the vocals into it.

think the rest could use a little work. I understand that it's not finished, but it's still lacking in a few areas. I think of a group of soldiers marching, sulking and sad when I hear this. That's why the title's so perfect. Could have some deeper tones at spots, and it should be a tad slower. Still pretty good work, not bad in any sense.

This is a very original piece, you have here. I love the way it switches rhythm in mid song. In my mind I could picture several different ways this could be used perfectly. Wonderful in all aspects.

Don't just upload sound you made in >10 seconds here. It's a waste of bandwidth and site space. If you planned on having this as a part of a bigger scheme of audio, just save it onto your computer, it's much better. In fact, before you upload anything to NG, think about it first, then submit. And that goes for everyone. Seriously.

It seems like a great intro for something. A soap opera maybe? I don't know where, but this will definitely go places, I'd almost guarantee it. Great work, better than I could do. You used an interesting setup of instruments, but you used them flawlessly. This could quickly become an opening to spectacular, because this is. No matter what subject, I can think of a way this would work in any situation.

I don't know what it is about this song, but it gave me the chills. KISS is a great band, don't use their name in your title, it's disgraceful. Your voice could be less in the subterfuge, but I think that's what you were going for. I really don't know what I didn't like, but it was a weird song.
Author's Response:
I can understand how it can rub someone the wrong way. It's a hit or miss.
The word KISS is the song's actual title, not a reference to the band KISS. There's nothing wrong with KISS the band but, I will never associate anything that I do to them or their style... They don't have a monopoly on capital letters K,I, or S, do they?
Vocally, I couldn't find range that I could actually sing in so, yes, I kind of hid my voice to blend in with the melody. Thanks for the listen.

That's a very nice little tune you've got there. Very strong Latin theme, I liked it. It got my foot tapping, but it wasn't exactly a phenomenal piece. Short, maybe a little too short. The title was a little unoriginal, but it definitely suited the song well. A little work here and there never hurt anyone. Try experimenting with some more instruments that fit the genre.

If this is the demo, then I cannot fucking wait for the full thing. Great use of the guitar, and the beat was very catchy. Almost two years and no full thing, damn. I have high hopes for the full thing, boy. Extremely high hopes. A fucking demo heard in 50 entries? That's just unheard of. Just finish the fucking song, I'm too impatient.

Singing was wonderful. The into was misleading, but that kind of thing is always good to have every once in a while. It reminded me of he Rolling Stones in "You Can't Always Get What You Want". Great, just simply, great. I'm looking forward to some more of this, and I don't usually like Heavy Metal.
Author's Response:
Heehee, thank you! I actually got the idea from a Scorpions song (though the name of it slips my mind at the moment. It's on the Love at First Sting album). Heavy metal was never a favorite of mine, but it brings back good memories of my father. He listens to it constantly, so I'm hoping that somewhere out there, he'll hear this and be proud. Thank you for listening, we do our best!
With love,
LadyArsenic <3
