Re: About the tone of the songs

With good technique and proper exercise and warmup, age should not be a problem for his vocal range (could be harder, but we could still sign properly)... You can as Bruce Dickinson... or Tom Jones hehehe

Re: Bad Review about the performance of Stratovarius live....

Hmm, the review is not professional at all, I mean the style and writing. I really can't say about the concert, but it does offer some grammar mistakes and its poorly written (lots of out of place words and stuff)... Anyways, there will be always bad reviews, people who that day just didn't like it ...

Re: Plagiarism or coincidence

Even though Roberto Carlos was a really good and famous musician back in the day, I doubt a nordic finnish viking heard him anytime... It is similar but its coincidence, im my opinion

Re: Johansson Solos Medley

I also like a lot those solos, know the difference and elements... I like his solo work in fission, but if I choose from the solos on the video (which would be something like "short solos"... is that term accurate?) I think those are his best. Cheers

Re: Tolkki Guitar solos RE: Trinity

Anyway, who gives a damn fuck? First of all, that guy supposly wasnt paid nor credited on trinity... So, if this is true, it would be stupid enough to do it again in the new album... There are no videos of the other guy showing us any guitar playing... So how could this be true then? (you dont have ...

Re: Money in music, money in Stratovarius

Unless you're doing something fucking stupid, like ripping in 128Kbp/s, you shouldn't hear any additional compression from a CD to your computer, unless of course your computer is hooked up to a worse sound system than your CD player.

I have more music than I'll probably ever find time to listen ...

Re: Money in music, money in Stratovarius

how many people do you think buy cds because of technical"skill" verses melodic songs or rythmic songs or other reasons such as a connection with the songs on a emotional level? a person will make what they can get people to pay for their product, so catering to a need or want or desire and ...

Re: Money in music, money in Stratovarius

I have no idea how the music industry works in terms of the money. So everything I write here is just my "not justified" opinion... I believe music industry is a really nasty bitch, where the only thing that matters is to be well related to certain people, where it doesn't matter if you have talent ...

Re: "Elysium" samples online!

Its funny... the sample of Life in a moment has the voice of a patch that comes first when you power up the Roland V Synth (the sort of latin text, or whatever it is)...

I personally dont like the very straight use of that kind of patches...

For anything else i think that the samples sound ok, i ...
