Miracle - My latest and greatest!

Posted by Karco - September 15th, 2007


This is the full description to my song Miracle that the URL in the song description links to. If you found this news post first, then click here for the actual song. ;) Leave a comment here if you don't feel like leaving a full review! :)

So, it's about time, huh? I spent more than a month on this one, but it's finally finished. :D A few things you might want to know about this song...

First: It's OLD. Well, yes - the MP3 is brand new. Rendered today, everything. :P But many of the concepts (especially in the beginning) are from a month ago and over the production of this song I've learned quite a few things that are not only from working on it and listening to songs that were its inspiration, (which I'll list later) but also from listening to other songs, among other things. What this means? My next song like this will be a LOT better... >:)

Another thing - if you're interested, I'll link to below the pages of the two songs - both by VERY talented artists, but not on Newgrounds, unfortunately - that most influenced this song. They're definitely worth a listen as well. :) First, there's Sirene, which you can find at this link. Look for the original mix. It gave me the ideas for all of the dissonance in this song, (among other things) which ended up working quite nicely. Give it a listen sometime, it's awesome. :) There's also Glory, which you'll find here. It's the third from the bottom. You'll notice that these pages are on the same website, which is in a foreign language - but it shouldn't be too hard to find the songs, and their 'Download' buttons... :P Of course, these songs aren't the only influences on this song - not at all. But they're pretty big ones...

Now, I may as well talk about what I think of the song myself. It's definitely one of my best - it doesn't match up at all to the songs linked to above, of course, but I tried. ;) I do think, though, that the later end of the song was a bit rushed - I was quite eager to finish the song, so I could jump into my next WIP, whatever it'll be. :P We all cut corners on songs, I suppose, the real question is how many. Overall... I cut a lot less this time around. :)

That's about all I've got to say. Enjoy! Hope you all like it. :)

Miracle - My latest and greatest!

So is it?
Its Great, I guess.

What do you mean, exactly? By 'so is it?' are you asking if it's great or not? It definitely doesn't stand up to other songs of the same genre that this was inspired by - I've linked to two of them in this news post. But relative to my other songs, this is easily 'great.' ;) By itself, I don't know. It's a good song, but it has its flaws, for reasons similar to what is stated in paragraph three. The production felt a bit rushed towards the end, for example. I had so many other ideas for songs in my head waiting to get out, and I felt I was keeping everyone waiting for this song anyway. :P

Thanks for commenting!

lol i like it but why you call it miracle sound creepy sounding you shoud call it rise of the dead :D i review it later though

Creepy sounding? o_O That was the last feeling I was trying to give with this song... odd.

Take your time reviewing, there's no hurry. :)

Wow a month? The max I've ever done on one song was 3 days hahah
but thats cause I have fruit loops DEMO (which is really idiotic I've been using it for 5 years and still havent had a taste of full version).

On demo you cant save projects only export mp3... to make songs its good. To make REALLY good songs, not that much :(

Anyways I really liked your song, as stated in my review on the song page. Another thing check out my latest songs :)

Yep, you'd want to get the full version sometime. I reccomend Producer edition, though shoot for XXL if you can. ;) It'll be so much easier to make better songs... because you can spend that much more time on them. :P

I'll go respond to your review, and I'll definitely check out your stuff sometime. :)
