Re: A Grand Parade

Little snapshots, faces blurred Ancient places that haven't returned Moving faster in your mind What is real, what is fantasized? The grand parade's not what you think You search the world but you might miss the link The truth is here, it's meant to last Embrace the now, forget the past. Time is swi...

Re: Nur Ein XI- Final Round

Both of your songs were very impressive. Great job! BGM, did you play all instruments in this song? I had assumed you were a one man band in your submissions (except for the female vocalist of course... loved her voice). All the parts were spot on with the genre. Felt like I was listening to Music R...

Re: Nur Ein XI- Round Four

DuToVa – Didn’t really hear any obvious flaws (beyond the slightly loose relationship between the various instruments. Was it that)? j$ - The vocals are kind of an acquired taste. The singer says his vocals are the flaw! The official flaw is the short keyboard section between verse sets which sound...

The Banshee supersonic scream was made up of yelling, a warbling mouth noise, and theremin.

Re: Nur Ein X - Round Four

DuToVa - that's not how you pronounce 'Sub-Mariner'. Spoken word intro totally unnecessary and a bit distracting. Just sayin', on both counts. I'm not an X-Men fan (more of a DC man, m'self) but Banshee was always my favourite so bonus points already. the mix is a bit flat but songs about alcoholic...
