This mod is an interpretation of an existing song, (i think it was sung by Brian Addams?) Well, this mod basically runs thoughout the whole song playing the melody repetitvly, this mod could have been a lot better had the artist gave attention to the accompinent, as sadly, its the same all the way through. This got far to repetitive and came close to annoying. Even though its an interpretation of the song, it would have been far more interesteing has there been more to listen to, given the fact that an XM mod allows so much more tracks and samples. Overall: Good try, could be better and more imaginitive. Well, basically you have a piano playing the appregiated chords and melody all the way though this 4 minute mod file. It lacks use of any special commands such as accenting/echoing etc... which gives it a rather flat and boring sound image. The use of tracks in the XM module was reasonalbe, but could have been better had other instruments been used.i.e a nice bright strings section could have brightened it up a lot. Samples were reasonalbe quality. Overall: Technically primative in use of track programming, but a good attempt at a song interpretation. If the artist takes a note from this review, he could gain great potential in writing mod files in the near future.
