[_-={Dark Skies}=-_]

Pure epic RAGE!

One of my favorite bits about Castle Crashers is the almost uniformly stellar music. This and "Rage of the Champions" stand out for me as pinnacle moments of that soundtrack.

Maybe I'm a little biased, since this track was also used (amongst other spots) during the wedding crash level, which happens to be my favorite segment of the whole game. I don't know.

What I do know is that there's just something that screams 'AWESOME' to me whenever I hear these tracks. Great work, Maestro.

[Dot Dot Dot]

Brilliant!

Love the accent. Love the emphasis you put on some parts, especially the "BLAM" rant. And I love how well this was fit into the Flash. Outstanding performance all around.

By the way, is that a Mr. Plinkett reference I hear at the end? :3

D-Mac-Double responds:

Thanks! I'mma send you a pizzah roll in da mail.

[Counting down the hours]

Outstanding!

Hopeful and desperate at the same time. This song tells a good story of isolation, and seeing the light at the end of the very long tunnel. Or something like that. Wonderfully executed, great use of instruments all around, the loop point is nice and seamless. 5/5, 10/10. Added to favorites!

[Story Of Life - DubAudio]

This really works!

Not just for it's use in the "One Chance" game, but as an ambient track in general. Melancholic, yet hopeful. It fits the quote you made in your comments.

Well done! 5/5, 10/10. Added to my favorites.

[Rage of the Champions]

Rage of the Epicness!

I first heard this tune about a year or two ago in Dark Cut. After that, it popped up in Toss the Turtle. I had to do a little digging from there, and saw how awesome you are as a musician.

Then, I played Castle Crashers for the first time a few weeks ago. Storming the grassy field, I was like HOLY F&$%ING S#&T! So, this is where it all came from. Brilliant work, Maestro. :)

This is definitely my #1 favorite in the Audio Portal. Purely epic!!!

[Pink Knight Jamz]

Wow!

The fact that you did this track makes Da Pink Knight all that much cooler. And the fact that you set it as an interactive soundtrack? That's even better.

I love it! :3

5/5, 10/10

[~'{Fire Aura}'~]

Awesome!

Definitely has that old retro sound to it. Very cool stuff. I'd like to hear the rest of the series if you choose to make it. :)

5/5, 10/10!

[Porntastic!!]

Pretty good!

I'm digging the very mellow tune. Drums and bass MIGHT add to it, but the tune stands great as it is by itself. Excellent job.

marioman55, you're just fucking stupid. Did you even read the title of the song?

jr73380 responds:

W00t! thanks, I actually did add drums o it and a bass line, but upon showing it to my friends we decided it was better without. It kinda took away from the guitar. Thanks for the review!

[Song of Storms remix]

Very nice!

Ah, the memories. I'm definitely favoriting this one! 5/5 10/10!

[Lost Ways]

Great tune!

I think you succeeded in the sadness part. I'm liking the style of the song. The slight slip in harmony between the instruments is a nice touch. The only request I have is that you make it longer.

Thanks.
