This is great, the vocals are good but that wasn't you, still I think the echo and everything really adds to this and the crowds cheers and comments add to this very well. Though I never heard a whole lot about the issue that this brings up but I still found this very amusing, they way it comes across is great and well done.
You have certainly captured this person as a public speaker, which is great and very amusing. Although I think the opening sounds a lot like the opening of an advertisement more than anything. But still, everything is really well done here, so good job to Fyndir for the vocals and you for the 'mastering' of this, lol.

The backround music to start with here is played very well and flows through very well to the end of the song, the vocals also go with everything here very well, the slowness of this who song adds some depth to the listerning of this as well so good work on that. There is nothing I can hear wrong with this, everything sounds like it flows very well.
I also think the singing is done very well to, the echo effect certainly works in the parts where it is used as well, everything clear most of the way through though there are parts where I can't quite catch the word. The length of this is also good, though the ending I'm not too keen on personally, but good job overall.

I think this is pretty nice, the opening was good although when it changed I thought it was going to open into something faster or louder so that was quite misleading for me, lol. The whole song sound pretty calm and mysterious, sort of sounds like a jungle like song which is pretty neat I have to say, it almost reminds me of the Civilization games.
Although it did seem to end quite suddenly, no build up to the ending or build down in the same way that it opened, so that was quite disapointing, maybe work on a better ending. But other than that, I really liked this, it has a very calm background sound to it so good work.

The lyrics to this are pretty amusing that's for sure, although didn't make a whole lot of sense but that isn't the point of this is it. Anyway, it sounds pretty good, the background tune sure worked very well with the singing and that was all done pretty well, the ending was good to the way it slowed down, so good job on that part.
One part I wasn't too keen on was the repertition of the lyrics later on in the song, it just started to sound a bit plain, but I guess since it's so short, it doesn't make much of a diffrent. But more varied lyrics in the second part would have been nice, but good overall.

It actually sounds pretty good, although I'm not a huge fan of 8-bit tracks, it seems to sound a little dull in the background and fuzzy but that's down to taste I would think. There are some parts that change pretty well, though the early pause and change at 0:11 was kind of odd I thought, but later ones like that seemed to work well which is good.
You have some pretty decent beats in this and a decent overall sound to the whole thing, so I have no problems with that. The opening wasn't my favourite part, but after that it did get better which is good, the ending was pretty intresting to hear, better than the opening. So overall I have no problems with this other than the opening that could be improved.

... you know.... I never had a huge and explanatory review before.... I RESPECT THAT!
And what's wrong with the intro part of the track? It was part of the original 16-bit (GBA) version... I thought it was ok...

The beat to this sounds very strong to me, which is good and it really does work well with this whole tune, which is great to hear. Nothing sounds bad about this, it really does sound like a kind of old militery battle like tune, I think that sound pretty intresting anyway. Everything fits in perfectly through the whole song, so that's very good.
I'm not too keen on the way it loops though, at the end it seems to end odd and since it starts with a kind of choir there, it just seems to be a bit mixed up and doesn't really flow for me, you might want to work on that. Otherwise though, I think everything else here sounds very good, nice work.

Making something loop smoothly has always been something I strive for- I hate it when something just ENDS and then starts over. I look at it as a game, always trying to find new ways to make it work.
Personally, I think it works pretty well. I definitely hear what you're saying though- If I had put in choirs before the loop ended it would help the flow better. Thanks for the review, 4/5 is still a pretty good marking if you ask me!

It's a very good tune and has some nice voice clips to it, I think those really work well with everything here, sounds good in that sense, not too keen on the overall opening of this though, it seems to build up a little slow for my liking. The main body of this is very good to hear, although somewhat sameish through parts it doesn't sound too repetitive.
The transition to other beats is really good to, some of the effects I think are really good here, they sound very good such as around three minutes in, that's one of my favourite parts about this, the way you fit the voice clips into that was good too, nice work there.
I think the slowing down part around the four minute part was pretty intresting, then starting to build up into something more, that was pretty good in my view. So much in the track, it's kind of hard to remember how it started the further you get through it. Which in a way is very good, each segment of this seems to have it's own start and ending yet all fit together very well.
Overall I have to say this is really very good, although I wasn't too fond on the very start of this, I really started to like the rest of this, so that really made up for it to me. You had a very good ending to this as well, which was nice to hear, good job overall.

This really does sound a lot like the Popeye tune, it is a shame that you have no vocals to this, but nevermind, it's still good without them. I would suggest making a longer version with some singing to them if you could, that would add a lot more to it and make it more intresting to listen to.
But as it is right now, it is very good, it loops pretty well probably mostly because it ends on a silantish note, maybe the loop could be worked on a little but no major problems with that. Overall I have no major problems with this, I mean the quality of this is very good and it sounds very much like it should really.

Thanks alot!
I will think about that and will try it
as for the loop it fixes it self after a couple rounds..I think it happens to many of the loops here..but i think if you download it and play it on itunes putting it on repeat the loop would sound great.
:D

I really think this is a very good track, the quality of the audio in this is really good and very clear and it's very nice to listen to. The vocals are really good in this track, they fit in with the whole thing very well and the singing is very good, no problems with that, although the background tune does make it hard to hear the words at times for me, the quieter parts are much nicer in that sense.
The ending to this is very good, I like the way how the background music stops and it just finishes with singing, I think that is a very good way to end this. Aside from the singing in this, I have to say the background is also done very well, the quality of that is also very good and plesent to listen to, overall, everything sounds good except the louder parts with singing is hard to hear the words to me.

This track sounds very good to me, the length is also nice here, which is good though can mean you get a bit too repetitive, which this doesn't, or atleast not in a noticible way anyway. So that's good to hear, there's nothing bad about this that I can hear right off, everything comes together very well and it's very plesent to listen to.
Good audio quality, very clear to hear everything that you have going on here, it does also sound dark in a way, but not in an unplesent way, kind of hard to explain the way this is coming off, but it does sound very good in that sense. The closing part of this sounds to build up in energy which is very good, sounds very nice and everything.
Overall this has a very good intro to it which I liked as well as a very nice closing part to everything, although I might be tempted to say the ending was a little too sudden in a way, it still worked all the same, so very nice job on this overall.
