Title: Please remember me Filename: odd-remb.it |
Posted Fri 19th Feb 1999
Rated 6 / 10 |
| Well Oddfellow! its a nice little piece with a good meledy. Simple...but simple is good. It didnt stand out in my mind as one of the best but it still is worthy of a place on the Mod Archive. Good composition you odd fellow.... Lets see. Weve got the piano runing with i think ... another piano just an octave lower towards the middle....with the gospel singers humming in the background and a nice soft techno beat that gives it that special little something....a little repititious....the same piano track over and over.... keep working on more complexity. but who am i to say...i cant figure out the god damned impulse tracker!! | |

| This is a very slow song, almost like an epic, but it's too short and a bit too fast for that. It is a beautiful song with nice pianos, lovely beat, ever-changing theme, just an all around great piece of music. It sounds almost like something out of classical music, though a bit more digital. It sounds like a dream scene from a movie... Khyrod is obviously no amateur!! This song uses numerous beautiful samples during different times, has rarely a repeating beat/measure, and keeps it that way for very long. Though it sounds like an epic, it's a bit too fast and downbeat for that. No, it's not a downbeat song, it is almost like a... love song. It's very beautiful, though it's almost like the author was composing it for someone else. | |

| Kind of boring, even for an epic; the song itself is just too slow, it makes even epics seem long. The song itself was methodical, following the same method throughout the entire song, changing only a little every time, then lapsing back intto the same theme, which itself is boring. It took more than a novice to track/remix this MOD. Lots of samples are used in good succession, though very boring samples, too low. The song doesn't have too many bass samples, detracting from the song. Also, it's not very original; just pianoes playing with digital instruments in the background. Boring, overall. | |

| Cute, Happy song. The style changes too much. Very Short. Despite my 'mean' rating, (I do hate being mean) the song has merit. I won't deny that a great many, (If not most) of my mods are deserving of an even lower rating, and it might very well be that this is a "Damn, I'm bored mod..." or a First shot mod...Don't take my rating to heart though, I'm just a teenage bum. I like when the drum, (Some wierd synth tom) gets hardcore and in my face. Other than that, it's just your basic 'Twinkle Twinkle Little Star' melody with some bass added. | |

| Har. The song message had some threats in it about what was done with it...I'm not challenging the threats...I just didn't particularily like it! The beat was kind of loud and overdriven. It had some cool samples though. Remember though...it's just my opinion, so see for yourself... The sound wasn't my cup of tea, but it was well composed. like I said, the samples were cool and tied in with the rest of the song. The best part is at the end where it slows down to a stop. (Not an insult) The drums work very well there. I like the mechanical synth. Those are often hard to work. | |

| I don't know about those vocals...They seem to distract more than anything, although they were used well, if not too much. The bass is good, as well as the drums. OK, I admit, the moaning is kind of gross. It has a cool eerie feel to it though. I don't mind it as much as it seems I do. The base=thumbs up. Nice table saw. ;) I can tell SHAD knows how to track...The bass was very well done, as well as the drums, and the Table saw sound adds um...character?... to the song. Though I whined about the vocals, he used them well, I just really didn't like the sound of 'em. Very deep feel to it. | |

| Very nice song, nice beat, sounds like an amateur professional did it for a radio show. A bit short and sweet, this trance song catches you from the beginning. It has a nice beat that runs throughout the entire song that "entrances" you into listening to it more. Considering everything, it's pretty nice, a nice trance beat with a tiny little bit of techno in it. Great bass solos, I might add. Semi-difficult song to make. Though the notes weren't too difficult, the quality of the samples were very good and made it sound like it was incredibly difficult to make. The instruments carry the same trance beat on until the end, where it still carries the trance quality of the song itself. The song sounds a little like techno after a while, but it's not... very excellent tech aspects. | |

| Wow. This is staying in my /mods/good/ directory. The piano is amazingly done and you can really feel emotion flowing. Excellent feeling. It begins with a soft wind and a drum that sounds like a heartbeat. When the melody is fully developed in the song, it works harmoniously well. Get. The instruments were used extremely well in this one. They sound very realistic and convincing. The percussion fits perfectly and is softly overtaken by the main instruments. There are also trace amounts of synth used with the classical instruments which define this song even further. | |

| The music is very simple and very entertaining, fun to listen to, if you will. This is definately an electronic MOD and a good one at that. It lacks a good "crashing" part of the song, though, where the beat ups itself to a new level. It begins a little fast but strong and ends the same way, it's almost like the song isn't supposed to end. The tracker of the song is obviously not an amateur. The song is very complicated, beats, drums, percussions all tuning in at the same time. It's got a nice beat that stays strong throughout the entire song, not skipping a beat except to switch to other parts of the MOD and to the end. The beats do change and get better along the way. Unlike most electronic songs, the author didn't just add more instruments as time went on, no, he just continued making good music. | |

| Smooth and moving...running along the beach with your love...you can feel the ocean spray and your lovers heart. Run free ! yippie! Life's great and you can definately tell it was for the writer of this mod. I give Natasha Breanne Thompson two thumbs up ()_ ()_ for this one. Well done! Only thing lacking in the song is a good ending.... it fades off into silence like so many other songs....i like the wave samples that continuously play in the background, the piano synth with the lite bells makes for a good combination... and the blending of those with the occasional base riff is a great effect. Nice work Natasha and keep it up. | |

| From the second you hear it, you know it's a techno song. It carries the same simple reverbing beat throughout most of the song except for one part, where it adds another instrument. It sounds like white noise at the end, though is entertaining overall, ONCE. This was not too difficult of a song to track. It was the same few samples used over and over again, never stopping, just adding more and more instruments until it sounds almost like white noise. A very techno song, the beat is fast and strong from beginning 'til end, and sounds nice. It keeps you entertained for the first minute and a half, from whence it bores you with the same beat. | |

| When I listen to this song, it makes me think that I'm flying in the air. The guitar/strings on it are wonderful, making for a wonderful blend of music, very soft and suttle throughout the entire song. It is a slow song that does rarely repeat a beat. At the beginning, it is very slow and sounds 8-bit, cheap. Very beautiful, though at times it is too soft. I can tell that this was a difficult song to make. There are many samples, many different strings, flutes and whatnot, used mostly at the same time. It all blends to make a crisp sound, very nice. Another thing is that the beat did not repeat once throughout the whole song, it kept on getting renewed and renewed. It was a little too soft and at times made me want to turn it off, but it kept me interested enough to continue on listening. | |

| This is a real hard rock song. And for those who are familiar with Dream Theatre: this song could almost be made by Dream Theatre. It has some very nice tunes in it, but the things that worry me, are the sudden changes from part to part. It's a bit patchy. However, the guitar solo's are perfect. If you look at the different parts, they fit together, just the overflow could be better. The samples are quite "clean", but the guitar sample is one of those typical computer made sample. My compliments to the drums! Is it done by a real drummer or a computer? They sound great. The composer did use some good effects of the tracker, especially in the guitar(?) solo. | |

| Well, what can I say: When the song starts, it really get's your attention, but after ten seconds, it start to get a little false. Well, ok. But then, after 1 minute, it starts to get REALLY false! And that's one of the worst things that can happen in a song. Especially because it's not that hard to finetune a sample. And then there are these sudden silence parts, where you suddenly only here the beat. It sure is a pity that the composer made these missteps, because with these samples he could have made a real nice song. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, the end is like a sudden death. The song suddenly stops playing. All samples have high quality, but need to be finetuned. As I have said, if the composer would do this, the whole song would really sound much better. The base is nice and deep, but the drums are very empty. It seems that the composer knew how to handle a tracker, but didn't knew much about tones. | |

| There isn't really a tune in it, but its quite good. Nice synthersizer-alike sounds. Most techno songs rather repeatitive, but this one is not. The drums sound very proffessional, and the whole thing "sticks together". However, it is techno, very techno in fact, and it's not very original. The samples have a very high quality. And for only 4 tracks, the whole thing doesn't sound half bad. It seems that the composer didn't use much of the tracker effects. All effects you hear are already recorded in the sample. But in the end, it all sounds quite professional. | |

| What is this?. What you hear is a couple of flat tones over a base(?) drum. I don't know what to think of this. It reminds me at the old games I used to play with my 386. If you play this song through the PC speaker, it sounds the same (and that is not a joke). Most of the samples are probably created with a simple tone generator (such as in the first Cool Editor versions). Very simple. Then, the base tone has these real unpleasant "ticks" in it (sounds a bit like vinyl). I can't really say that there is no melody in it. But after all, he needs to learn how to create samples. | |

| This is a VERY hardcore techno song. Being a techno fan myself, I am a bit biased, but I'll try to keep it acceptable--this is a nice piece of work by Natashe Breanne Thompson. It begins strong with the usual techno bass, carries on strong and for a while, then the beat eventually dies out... It's more than worth it listening to the beginning and middle part, though. BEAUTIFUL TECHNICAL SONG!!! It's almost perfect in every way, all samples controlled, not too high, bass never going too far, treble staying low, keeping the synthed voices low, nice work. The end is a bit lacking though, it's as if she just gave up. If the end had the strength of the beginning, this would have been given a 10. | |

| The song itself was... entertaining and was worth listening, for the first time. After the first time, it gets a bit redundant as most songs do. This song has a nice mix of beat and original music, the flute sounds magnificent as does the trumpet and piano. Nicely done, and well ahead of its time: created in 1997, and still sounds good. Overall, nice job, Di. Gi. Tal Chris. The usage of piano, flute, and trumpet all mixed together at the same time must have been incredibly difficult to do, and to each sound clear must have been quite a challenge. The MOD is worth 4.0 for the tech difficulty alone, and for making it sound so clear, especially with 1997's trackers as they were, was quite excellent. | |

| I enjoyed this song very much. It has a great beat, a nice "chorus" great music, excellent sound, everything a great MOD has. Its use of trumpets, cympanii, samples in general makes it blend well, and makes you want to hear it again. I'd have to congratulate Erdrick on one of his first original tracks, it's a great job. The song was beautiful, nothing was wrong except for a slightly high treble. The treble is quite high, sometimes you have to turn it down, as the high beats are all you can hear. When the drums come in, it gets better, the beat "carries you away." I heard no errors in the actual MOD itself )in the notes(. This is a great track; definately not background music, but very entertaining. | |

| ENDTHEME sounds like a dream sequence, with its simple analog string and bass. A very simple song, it's not very great. All it is, basically, is the two beats repeating over and over again; it's only good one time around. The leading analog string has too high of an attack and is too loud. Very good for a first track, if it indeed is, though. Another drawback is that it sounds 8-bit. I loved the tech of the song; the notes themselves are perfect, never slipping or an error, well placed, though the samples are terrible, as well as the left-right panning( if you're listening to it in headphones ). It also gets annoying after a while. It sounds like it came straight from a Nintendo game, and thus 8-bit. Overall, due to the over-attack of the string, the general annoyance it gives after you've played it for a while, I'd have to give it a 3.5 | |

| I love the ocean in the background. The heavy base as a background groove is nice, gives it the rising feeling that good music gives ya. I liked its quality and cohesiveness. It conjures to the mind the image of a man playing the flute on the ivory coast looking off into the sunset.... Youve got the wooden mallets that you dont hear very much....youve got the synthed flute and the wooden flute and the high pitched keyboard, the ocean samples and much more that make this song an altogether good one. I dont know much about tracking,but the tracker that " tracked " this one deserves a medal. Good job Soundwave. | |

Short and not so sweet, but you can shake your but for about 46 seconds and thats it. Nice base with the rythm in the beggining but that's basically it, that and a silly steel drum that takes a a decrecendo to a crecendo and then ends abrubtly.

| The artist made this song in remembrance of a friend - that's the best way to describe the tune, it sounds like a dedication. The piano samples sound nice and go together well. There is this weird point around patterns 7-10, where the song keeps sounding as though it is trying to end - it repeatedly resolves to a "big finish" chord. However, when the real end does come, it just fades away without finishing properly. Weird. Anyhow, the main melody does sound nice, and there is lots of variation here. The samples are very high quality, considering this is a ProTracker MOD. All the chords progress well, and the melody fits nicely on top. There is one weird sample that sounds like a duck, but that doesn't appear too much. If the ending was sorted out, this would be a great song. | |

| This is a typical jazz/blues tune, with standard blues instruments. It has some good parts, some bad parts. In some places there is a good drum beat, in others none at all. In some places the instruments seem to complement each other well, in others they seem out of place. Towards the end, there is what seems like an ending, but then it skips a few patterns and has another ending. A distinctly average tune. For an old ProTracker MOD, the samples are surprisingly high. In some places, the notes don't seem to fit together, or don't progress correctly. The ending also needs to be sorted out. This piece has a very specific audience: if you like jazz music then you should probably download this tune - if you don't, leave it well alone. | |

| The drum beat on this tune is slightly too strong; you can hear it too much over everything else. The lead synths sound good though, and the weird jittery chords work quite well. The part of this tune that leaves me mystified is at the beginning of this tune: there are a few distorted voice samples saying some rubbish, but then swearing at you. I'm not entirely sure why these are here, as they don't add anything to the music, and just ensure that I'll give the song a lower score for pointless inclusion of extra samples. The samples are all high quality. The notes are sequenced well, and the chord progressions sound good. Towards the end of the 4:46 that this song plays for it does start to get a bit repetitive, but not too badly. The worst part of this song is definitely the weird-sounding, distorted, offensive voice samples. | |

The middle part sort of fumbled but then was saved by the nice ending. It's not a boring song, and the samples are good, except the loops aren't cleanly done, there's an obvious out-of-sync looping effect especially noticeable in the beginning. Nice drums, too. It's this good in 4 channels, what can I say? You've got to know what you're doing if it comes out this good. I have to congratulate Timelord on this very nicely done piece! | |

| The melody is kinda catchy, but the drums kinda dominate everything else. The drums seem very loud and "in yo' face,", and contrast with the quiet peacefulness of the rest of the song. If the drum beat was quieted down and had some variation, this would be a warm and fuzzy one. The birdies in the background add a nice ambience throughout, and the skeleton of the song is fine, but needs some meat on it's bones. The basic melody carries well, and there is some nice usage of stereo sound, but some accompaniment in the form of bass and random percussion would add more character. | |
