Dark Corona [New]: I love how the Dark Corona medleys take bits from your other songs and bring out the best in them. 5 stars
Dark Corona [Slow]: Like the above, but without a lot of the intensity that made it excellent. 4 stars
My Other Self: I recognize some of this from the above medleys, but alone it doesn't do a lot for me. 3 stars
My Other Self (new): This is superior to the original version. It grabs me in a way the other couldn't. 4 stars
Stories of a Hero (all): All of them, as nicklegends said, seem to grasp at something and fail to hold on. 3 stars
The Storm Awaits [Echo]: This is as good a version of The Storm Awaits as any, but even it hits a wrong note in a few places. 4 stars
The Storm Awaits [Strings]: I never seem to like the "orchestrated" or "strings" remixes. That said, this is actually very enjoyable, making it superior to most. 4 stars
Summoner's Trials: Where?! It's missing! You should rectify that by submitting this piece separately. who knows how many stars

It's so refreshing to hear these after your quick, energetic songs. Seriously, one could make an entire quest with any storyline using exclusively your music.

The Storm Awaits: A lovely contemplative piece with a hint of sadness that still urges one to press onward. I'm undecided on the tempo change, but that's all.

My Other Self: Simple, but quite relaxing, without being boring.

Stories of a Hero [Orch]: The piano seems a little deep at the beginning. Also, it must be my set-up, but the lead horn instrument sounds cheesy.

Stories of a Hero [Mix]: So much for that slow, relaxed feeling I had. Heh. This one sounds strangely empty at places.

Stories of a Hero: I like this one about as much as its arrangements. It's good, but seems to be grasping at something that isn't there.

Summoner's Trials: The B-section was too harsh at times in stark contrast to the easy-going nature of the rest of the song.

Dark Corona: Ooh, nice percussion and dark atmosphere.

I love 'em all. Five'd.

Um, Stories of a Hero kinda sounds like your other work "Five Sides to Everything". Thought I'd point that out. But that was one of my favorites of yours, so hey.

Dark Corona [slow] : This version has a different fell compaired to the faster versions. The timpanis and orchestra hits are the bomb. 5 stars.
My Other Self: Mmm, the piano and ocarina duel with wood blocks echoing in the background. The voice has an errie feel...5 stars!
Summiner's Trials: There isn't anything but good **** here. The flute, pizzicato strings, and timpanis make a great combo. 5 stars.
Stroies of a Hero: The ensembled strings and guitars match up a solid piece of music. 4 stars.
SoaH [remix]: 5 stars! This is much improved on the original version. Brass, bass and rain fx. Nice!
SoaH: [orch]: 5 stars! Another improvement. Lots of pianos and strings make a sweet song. The acoustic grand is my favorite.

Wow, I really like My Other Self and Dark Corona [Slow]. I can think of a number of uses for those. Great set!

It seems like most of your music is fast and heavy. You should make more like this if you get inspiration for it.
