All I can say, this was beautifully made. I even love the acoustic parts. When it comes to most of the metal music, it's usually overdone with distortions and solos. After hearing this, I can tell you put a lot of practice and effort into making this. It was very pleasing to listen to, and I can relax to it and even enjoy it. It has the perfect balance of heavy and melodic tones. Keep up your amazing work! ♥

@thewizardninja10 жыл бұрын
That was an A+ arrangement, you should be super proud of this one. The choice to work in the acoustic guitars was a good one, really pulled everything back and added the softness and ambiance the original song had, allowing you to build to something heavier later without it feeling like too much or out of place. It reminded me a lot of some of Metallica's metal ballads. The mix was good too, everything had its own little audio space, leaving you with a nice and full sound. I'd love to see you try and take this approach with Stickerbrush Symphony.

Usually I'm of the opinion that metal covers of this particular song just don't work. Probably because most of them forget the _Ambience_ part, to their severe detriment. You've put yourself above most of the covers I've heard by intelligently mixing the softness of the original with some face-melting. That acoustic tone in particular almost made me weep.
