I´m not a fan of Mariah Carey and I don´t know the original song, but this instrumental cover is pretty nice (´50th ballad style). Good music feeling and good composing. Nice work!

Wow! What a song. This is an instrumental version of Mariah Carey's song "Forever". Very well done. The samples are good quality, and the programming is convincingly real. The introduction is just one sample, however, MCD has somehow managed to blend it SO well, that I didn't even notice until I looked at the song in IT. The intro will make you want to hear more! VERY well done. I very much enjoyed listening to this piece, and because it is so dynamic with its chord changes and variations, you won't mind listening to it more than once! I was most attracted to the bass line, which has a distinctive 50's sound to it. The drums are well done, and the piano is the perfect volume. This song is very listenable, and another hi-5 goes out to MC-Dreamer, one of my personal favorites. Overall, MCD did an excellent job programming this song. There was obviously much thought that went into the samples and the programming itself. A good use of volume and panning envelopes is evident. The volume levels throughout the entire song remain in a perfect mix. There is one technical glitch that I found in the song, and that is in pattern 12, channel 14. Unfortunately, the strings are out of key from the rest of the song come bar 32. This is a rather small, but very noticable glitch. You may want to put on a pair of good headphones and really analyse your music before you sign it and ship it out. Again, Overall; an absolutely marvelous piece of music. I recommend it. -=GA=-
