WOWOWOWOWOW!!!! This has the energy of Carl Orff's stuff... Love it! Jesus....powerful
Hello Glyn! It's been a while since I've heard your music, nice to be here listening today! Always such awesome tracks you create! A very dramatic piece, full of emotion! Kudos to you! ;)
So Very Lovely. Love the orchestrated intensity of this piece.
Wow. Your music is stunning!. R and N
Awsome track! I think you acomplished what you were after and then some.Soon as I heard it,I thought,..Movie Track.Great job.BTW,hows that boy of yours doing on that guitar? Laurel
Nice opening with the strings. Very serious sounding song as it seems. I love the snares. Nice and full. This is grand, man. There's a lot of power here. Nice sudden Ahh's and everything. There's a lot of detail here. Did I hear a harp? The soothing ahh's are nice. It sounds like somethings coming. Like a giant army is about to come and smash down a castle. Those drums are very very cool. Nice and powerful. The Sum of Andy Stokes: Yessss. Powerful describes this song. It sounded like something you would hear in an action adventure video game like God of War. Definitely God of Warish. The production was top smacking notch, man. I don't think you could get any clearer then that. The depth, too. Just an amazing song here. It could have been longer but oh well. It was fricking awesome. Here's a rate. Have yourself an excellent day!
love everything about this powerful piece altho i have to agree intro has a sudden break after it which interupts flow a little. As a drum fantatic, I particularly love the percussion. Ohhhhhhhhh I just got a shock..the end chopped off so abruptly i thought my headset was broken...what happened there? Still loved what I heard!!
Could here the intro in any pc game background! Very military and dark...and then like being awaken from a dream..nice breakdown with the whispers...Strings are sublime! always love a monkish-chant type choir. Powerful composition glyn! Enjoyed this!
just had a listen... super dynamics and intensity levels... the build up is very nice and the instrumentation is super... defo conjures up visuals for me... the first transition, where it goes intothe quieter part... all that needs really is the final note of that phrase... it cuts of the final note of the scale right before it hits the gong... if the gong stayed where it is and the final note of that phrase was copied from somewheres and pasted... woud be complete... great composition! rated
nice to see something new glyn...its a very dramatic piece...i also watched 300 recently...and i could picture that film wile listening...very interesting piece...i like how you dropped from the intro in to the main theme :) very dramatic :) lots of nice sounds and percussion in this...very enjoyable piece :) thumbs up
G'day Glyn, have to agree with Andy F and Waves' comments and also Mark's comment on this being very dynamic. I sat with eyes closed "picturing" the scene and felt maybe some violin or horn stabs to depict the thrust and parry of the battle? It is certainly a power packed piece and I think has great scope for some expansion to be a truly epic piece. rated and well done mate!
What a great and powerful piece, real quality to this sound, def a soundtrack for an epic.
Hi Glyn! I have to agree about the intro-end im afraid. It does need to flow a little bit more to a more natural abrupt end maybe. 1st thing that hit me about this track tho, is the quality of it! What a dynamic sound! 'Powerful' is the best word. Strong & impressive piece of music i must say! Rated Mark
Hey Glyn, this is a dramatic soundtrack that conjures up exactly the heroic scenes you are describing. Stunning rhythm in the intro part and I love the mysterious feeling during the break. (I think that the rhythm of the snares doesn't exactly fit during 1.12 - 1.22 though.) Really powerful piece of music, picturesque, gripping and suspense-packed - well done! It's good to hear you again! :-)
Very strong. However, I do agree with Andy about the transition. Nice work.
Hi Glyn! I used the same MAGIX samples to good effect in my The Chambers. You too have recognised the energy. I thought the intro was cut short abruptly and not knitted together as seamlessly as maybe it should. Powerful piece and imagery is there from the description you gave .I think there os so much more scope and potential to this.Nevertheless, deserving of a rating. Take Care my friend Andy :)
ahhh man this is fantastic!! I am so amazed by those can tell stories with just music!!! I am truely humbled rated Eric aka bad love junkie Wow!

Hi there I have just uploaded my entry for the current contest, any comments and votes welcomed :O) Glyn
Hi one and all, just uploaded a chill-out jazz track I wrote in 2004. I hope you all enjoy.
It's been a while since I've anything new from Welsh artist Onager, so it was nice to see him sneaking this track onto my review list. An MP3 Unsigned artist, Onager writes electronica in general and soundtracks in particular, and he's usually well worth a listen. With Dagonet (A Radiant Mourning) he's obviously overdosed on film epics (he mentions the excellent 300 and King Arthur in
Onager isn't just an MP3 Unsigned artist, he is someone who, unfailingly and unprompted listens to and comments on every track that I release. Now that, in my world, says volumes about a character. Here we are surrounded by gazillions of wannabees who wouldn't cross the road to piss on you if you were on fire, and every once in a while you come across the very, very few people who real
Yet another collaboration featuring the enigmatic singer Essence, this time with a vocal borrowed from the Viral Essences collaboration, aided by an old MP3 Unsigned face Contayjen - who you may remember as Virus. Confused?? Fuck yeah. Still, seeing as that counts as normal anyway, I'll get on. I first came across this vocalist in yet another collaboration - this time with
I've come across Colwyn Bay's Onager a couple of times before through MP3 Unsigned and liked what they did although nothing - as yet - as set me on fire. Having said that I did give them a Recommended for Dark Glass (July 2005) for its edgy electronic feel and it's Numanesque musical references - although missing the essential ingredient, the vocal to go with it. There is an added ince
The intro to Glyn's track is full of intrigue and leads you down into the bowels of the track by the use of piano and violin.Effective percussion carry the track onwards and the build is added to by bassline and brass.The music arrangement here is first class and lays the foundation of the ambience Glyn wishes to create.Abeey's vocals in this section are fine for me and are clear and distinct.Inte
Melody - it kind of has the same melody all the way through, but changes a tad around the 2/3rds point for a moment. I had trouble definine where the melody was coming from, but as the song went on, it's clear that the piano is the only melodic element, next to the vocals here and there, it's hard to carry a melody this way with one instrument, and you did a great job, didn't get boring or du
Paredafoe, Glynn, Onager. It’s hard to keep track of who’s who, I need to keep track. J Paredafoe is another very valuable member of mp3unsigned. Always participating in the forums, reviewing and commenting on tracks, and always there with the helping hand. His alter ego, Glynn, is not though. (Only kidding) lol. Coming from the unofficial capital of Wales, Colwyn Bay!!!!.- Onager (or wild a
The intro to this track is imense and immediatly grabs your attention. Lots off differnt sounds going on which all work very well together. The opening bass sound comes in with an almighty booom and continues booming, which sounds superb, really gives the track alot of depth. The drums come in next and fit very well with the dark atmosphere that has been created. The song then sludges (in a good
Whenever I am writing reviews I find it's always a good thing to go back through past reviews wherever I can. One, because I don't want to make a complete dick of myself (well, not all the time anyway) and two because I find I can get a better feel for what the artist is up to by taking a longer view of their work. So far, I have reviewed two other Onager tracks (which I must admit sur
Nice effects at the start of the track build up anticipation before bringing in a really good sounding melody. The track from here seems to progress quite slowly, keeping that same melody and underlying it with other darker synths that work well too. Although the melody is excellent, and everything fits together nicely underneath it, there is a distinct lack of any major change throughout the whol
Sorry for the delay, lets see if I can make up for it? This is another track which I have left comments on before reviewing. Basically Ongar as left comments on all the work I have put up on this site And has never had a bad word to say, always gave me something to smile about when reading my comments box. I don’t mean smile as in made me laugh I mean pretty much always gave good honest comme
Onager: catapult: medieval artillery used during sieges; a heavy war engine for hurling large stones and other missiles. Asiatic wild ass. btw, make sure you read that properly. That's 'wild ass' not 'wise ass'. Fortunately, this Onager is none of those things (well maybe a BIT of wise ass :D ). He's an MP3 Unsigned artist from Colwyn Bay in Wales who I have com
The last track - but by no means least - from MP3 Unsigned this month is yet another new artist to me. Onager hail from Colwyn Bay in Wales and this makes the third Welsh band on MP3 Unsigned to my knowledge and that is no bad thing. Fact is, even if you didn't realise, that the Welsh people have done a lot for UK music and IMHO have definitely thrown up some of the best rock musicians
