Hilarious.

I actually liked this. I saw your song title and thought, Gelatin.. what are they? Gummi Bears?! Apparently so lol... Anyway, the chorus kicks ass. It'd be interesting to hear some other covers, and an acoustic (gonna keep nagging).
Melody is in my brain now.. Gonna be a fun day tomorrow.

ApproachingNirvana responds:

Hahaha, sorry for getting that melody in your head, man. It's definitely catchy as hell tho. We're going to be doing a couple more covers and I can tell you that we have plans to do some acoustic stuffs. We just need some time.

This EP is sucking the life right out of us, but we need to get it out to start getting things rolling. Obviously, this won't be on the album, it's just for fun and for the NGs contest, so yea. We'd like to put this up on YouTube to get some attention but we'll see if we can convince anyone to make a movie to this lol.

Thanks so much for the review, man. Check out our myspace for our most recent stuffs. We've got some stuff there that's more aimed towards mainstream than at the NGs crowd. So ya check it out!

Always good to see you drop by,

Nice.

Not my kind of music, but it was good, I like your sounds.

Cool but.

I'll be honest, I am under the influenmce quite severelely. So this might not be an accurate review. BUT.... I didn't like the overall sound, I much preferred the feel of the original, I do appreciate the more organic vocal track, but it's just too intense for me the rest of it. I can't wait to hear your next though, you could be going in an interesting direction. But as for this, the sound didn't work for me.

Cayler responds:

This song in general has been received like Marmite, you either like it or you don't. lol I've had people , usually more familiar with musical theory, tell me that it's lacking so much of what they'd expect to hear, but some others tell me it's their fav because of it's simplicity. I did feel the same about the vocals when I was reviewing them, in that I thought they lacked some of the emotion the previous version had, but this is mainly because of my attempt to keep experimenting with my possible singing styles to find what I'd prefer overall. I think the organic sound is probably my more preferred way of singing so either I'll change this in the future, or I'll make sure the rest of my stuff has less strict vocals like this, and just leave this one how it is for those who might prefer this kind of style, or are just looking for versatility in my voice.

Very cool.

I liked the into in the other version. Cool Piano though.
One thing I'm still not personally a fan of is the effects on the vocals, I would l-o-v-e to hear an acoustic song by you two.
It sounds good either way.

ApproachingNirvana responds:

Good to see you Assassin! I still hear you on the vocals. Although I must admit, this a vast improvement over the original version. I think you can tell a large improvement in the quality and mixing of the vocals. The autotune is used a bit less in this one and I (SinJim) got a lot better at laying down vocals these past two weeks.

If you check out our Myspace or Facebook, we've got another song w/ piano and guitar in it. It's also got some techno elements but it's more pop-y than anything we've got on NGs. We did use autotune on it but in the near future we're going to start to phase it out as we improve.

I would love to say we can sing that well, but it's just not completely true yet. As we get better, though, we will be using autotune less and less.

We are definitely thinking about acoustic stuff and we've got a lot of stuff up our sleeves but we need gain a fanbase and get a bit better before we can start venturing out to other things.

We've also got plans to revamp Wrecked and the Heist, so keep an eye out!

Thanks for the review, man! It's always good to see you here.

Awesome!

I really like this! I like the sounds you used. And I like the way you composed it, it's got a killer theme, and it's very dynamic but stays cohesive. Nice stuff!

Zero123Music responds:

Thank you alot!!

Originally I thought this was my best - but quite a few people dislike this piece :(

Coolio.

Very cool guitars, I like how it shifts near the end, sounds really good there, my only criticism is that it doesn't quite loop or end. It'd be great to extend it by having a fifth part of it without the killer guitars that would ease it into either a perfect loop with those violins or some kind of ending.
Other than that though, it's very nice.

Zero123Music responds:

thanks assassin :)

I was trying to make it loop like the FF9 battle (i think)

anyways, I will try and loop it better

Has a nice hook.

It's been a very long wait to here something new from you.
This was, different. It's certainly not what I expected. I really liked some of your lyrics, especially the bridge. It seemed to get better as it progressed.
The sound isn't my acute taste, but it does contrast nicely with your voice. I'd definitely try the remaster you are thinking of doing.
Good job in the end.

Cayler responds:

Yeah, the way the bridge turned out is nice, but at the same time I feel like it's a little bit too cliche for me. I so often have some quiet piano vocal bridge in my songs that I think I've overdone it by now. lol

I would eat this.

Very cool. I like the way this works. The cello seemed a bit strong but it worked out when it became a lot thicker later on. I like this, it seems like it could work for a lot of time periods even with the drumkit. Personally I get futuristic theme.

Cool.

It's good. I like the overall use of sound, the strings seemed a bit too rough to me, they work either way. It would make for a good intro to a dramatic variation of a film theme.

Oh man..

HAHAHAHA. That's just the most cringe-worthy way to sing that song. I love it.

This should be played for an ad against smoking.

Never be afraid to open your minds. Create something, anything. You'll love doing it, I promise.
