Side Effects of Zoloft (SSRI) vs Side Effects of Klonopin (Benzodiazapine)

I have had first hand experience (been a guinea pig) for both of these chemicals for over 2 years each.  I have not experienced all these side effects.  Any negative side effects I have experienced have been from the SSRI drug Zoloft.  I have also experienced mild negative side effects from Klonopin.  Speaking as an individual, the lesser of the two evil chemicals (although they have been life saving and miracle drugs for me at times and for many others) is Klonopin, while Zoloft has been a mahority of negative side effects with very few benefits, although it did get me through a very difficult period in the spring and summer of 2014, but after 4-5 months on the medication the side effects became too much and the crisis in my life had passed.  I believe my depression and suicidal thoughts were/are not clinical, they are strictly situational.  I don't expect to find any practicing psychiatrist who gets a nice kickback/compensation for writing prescriptions for SSRI's such as Zoloft and a hefty list of other anti-depressants. 

Here are the two lists comparing the side effects as well as the severity of said side effects of these two medications.

Opinions On Greece Debt Crisis

The Greek situation is what happens when Liberal Socialist politicians take control of a country. Look at Venezuela, for instance, and their economy. Like Greece, unemployment is high; at least Venezuela has oil to sell. And it is still in economic distress. The "laws of economics" remain in full force, and no politician has, or will be able, to repeal or even modify them. Either Greece must come up with a plan that will allow repayment of the existing debt, or sink. "Throwing goods money after bad" is not a viable solution for the rest of Europe. When Greece did not pay their loan payment last Tuesday? where is that "not spent" money? They refused a debt. So they should have lots of money and nowhere to spend it. Where is that "lost money"? Where is the real - hard money that the pensioners paid in day by day, month by month, year by year out of paychecks with real cash? Where is all that money? Before everybody announces another "bank holiday"? how about giving everybody back the money that is theirs - that was never agreed to become security on loans they never agreed to and did not want. Where is their money? Erase the fake "interest-laden" loan papers? where are the millions in real cash paid to the pension fund? If the EU "tapped the till" and took the real money and now want to pretend there wasn't any? where there was - very real money. The whole world watches the EU become more and more "red-faced" as they are seen as the snitches who took money not theirs, faked interest loans on it but never "secured" the real money back to the lenders? The lenders of all that real money are supposed to get it back. Germany? can pretend the real money is "forfeit"? why? because Germany wants it? That's not good enough. I wish we could dissolve the IMF, or at least not use US taxpayer money to fund it. The IMF is just another left wing organization - and the IMF makes ridiculous mistakes not only regarding the countries it lends to but also by not placing more effective fiscal terms on borrowing nations. Whatever happens, I hope massive rioting and bloodshed will be involved and broadcast on the internet to provide me with maximum entertainment.

Half Asleep Depressed, Feeling Sorry For Myself Rant with Chenoa One Night in New Jersey (While She Was in Washington State)

(He...) sounds like a depressed recluse like me, but somehow I pulled myself out of it on many occasions (with the help of drugs that flood the brain with seratonin or GABA or dopamine) and accomplished a lot, got laid a lot, and had a lot of memorable times...then it gets depressing when I'm back locked away in my "Bat Cave" looking back on those memories wondering how its possible that I will ever experience those things again....make money, that's how, according to all logic that I've gathered on how to survive in this day and age and be happy as a young adult (although i'll be 30 in 2 years...I'm not a young adult anymore)but so are all my friends, including you, you're coming down with the ship right alongside me lol. Just a fucked up time, everyone is still learning how to live in the "real world" and be sociable and interact on a physical level, while at the same time being totally consumed and fascinated by all this technology that disconnects us from the "real world"

Alternative to Ending Suffering...

If I end up dead from an overdose of whatever chemicals were involved, it was partially intentional.  Most likely not 100% accidental.  I don't enjoy life that much at this point, and haven't since about 2008-2010.  Can't pinpoint what year when things started to go downhill where I just started to feel and think "fuck it, whatever."  Which is narrowminded thinking, I know, but when you feel a certain way, it doesn't matter.  Logic takes a backseat.  It becomes about your feelings and you don't think about being patient and hard work and waiting for things to improve.   You just want the suffering to end.

Georgia Guidestones and Transhumanism

I agree with the idea of the Georgia Guide-stones first commandment (basically says "keep human population under 500 million in balance with nature), but how are they going to eliminate 80% of the population?  This is just more proof that there are people who are in power and have money who want the population reduced and are going about making sure it happens, a simple and unmistakable example are the vaccines that Bill Gates has paid for out of his own pocket that contain chemicals that sterilize males and females so they cannot reproduce.  But they are for polio and other diseases that kill the sick disease infested areas in and around India and parts of Africa.  (One of many sources here) He looks like a great man, a hero, for doing this, and he is preventing an entire generation from suffering but he is also preventing future generations from being born.  I am glad he's doing it and hope it continues and is successful because there needs to be a drastic reduction in human population as every scientist will point out, and does if you chose to seek out this information and these debates, research papers, and speeches/seminars. 

The idea put forth by organizations such as Human +, founded by Dr Nick Bostrom, a transhumanist and futurist (he was hired by George W Bush to be on his cabinet to be in charge of "existential risk" which is taking into account everything that is done and how it will affect the possibility of extinction of our way of life or our race, there's plenty of information out there on government websites and credible publishers.)  And the entire goal behind organizations like Human + is to increase the length and quality of life, while the population is being reduced so we can have fewer humans and the ones who are allowed to survive will ultimately become near-immortal as we merge with technology. 

You are likely a transhuman, I am, many people we know are.  My friend, who has a titanium rod in his leg to hold his femur together after breaking it, is.  Transhuman is a human who has had their body or abilities augmented by technology.  If you wear contact lenses or glasses, you are augmenting your vision beyond the natural capabilities of your genes.  Thus you are a transhuman.  And this is the early stage, as vital organs are grown from stem cells in research labs, 3d printers are able to print out parts of the body such as heart valves, to replace organic parts that need replacing or else the host will die or live with disadvantages and inconveniences.

Watch this video, because I'm sure you are still having trouble grasping that this is real and actually happening and being discussed and worked towards right now, and has for decades.  It took me a while to come to terms with this and accept it as reality and accept that I will never be rich or high class enough to have access to most of these life extension technologies that will be available in the near future.

Just watch it and see where I am coming from with my (probably insane-seeming) point of view on certain things

ReverbNation's "Crowd Reviews" of 4 of my Songs

 

Crowd Reviews

I cracked under the pressure and paid $20 for some "crowd reviews" to have random music fans from all over the world listen to my songs and rate them.  They are rated as to whether they are appropriate for radio.  All my scores were between 6-8 out of 10 which means "Potential For Radio" while 9-10 means "Radio Ready."  Not bad, considering I recorded everything myself in my room with no experience producing, and NONE of these songs were ever meant to be on the radio. However it's time to take it to the next step and work with a professional producer, in a professional studio, and I guarantee all 10's.  Some reviews sound like the people didn't even listen to the song or don't know anything about music or instruments...others had good points for criticism, others loved certain songs and even got some 10/10 scores.

 

Reviews for "Radiation" track

I liked the intro on how it everything faded in moderately. Then a rock aspect of the song comes in with what sounds like sound effects or synth's. The vocals come after that. I think that the vocals sound alright. To me, they don't really sound like anything special. They sound like they have reverb, but they are behind the melody of the song, which personally I hate! I think vocals should be the primary part of the song. The lyrics sound decent. I do think that they make sense, and are in a proper structure. I really like that they mix well with most of the other things in this song, though. The background music sounds very tuneful and nice with the guitar, drums and other instruments. It keeps up with the rhythm, and matches the vocals. It really does set the tone for this song. I enjoyed this track quite a bit, and I do think the artist has SOME improvements. But, in general, it sounds pretty good. Well done. I would rate this song 8/10.

nice way to start the song. Beat in the intro sounds great and clear and very original. The instrumental part of the song sounds clear and full of energy. Song was well organized. It was just in the right place with the chorus. The overall performance of the song was tuneful and well made. It has a chance to make it big. The song has great potential because its very distinctive and original unlike other songs it has a meaning.

All in all a tidy track, good use of instruments and heartfelt vocals, complimented by a professional arrangement.A sound in the vein of coldplay that should resonate with fans of the genre.The vocalist shows an obvious attachment to the meaning of the song and delivers the lyrics in a manner appropriate of such music.In particular the use of the guitar throughout compliments the heartfelt,articulate way the lyricist conveys his point,while still shining as an integral part of the song in its own right.An enjoyable listen with several original touches.

Song starts off kind of strange with the melody, but the guitar helps it sound better. Can not hear what the artist is saying but he has a beautiful voice that works with the melody. Lyrics sound pretty weird but great, weird is the best. Overall it is a good song but it could be better.

The quirky electronic opening to this tune leaves me feeling underwhelmed. I normally love this sort of quirky beginning but it doesn't exactly grip me do to poor execution. The introduction was a tad and left me bored until the vocal track came in. The echoing effects were overdone but it does add a nice variety in sound. I enjoy how dynamic this track is even though it can feel a bit "blah" at times. The sound on this record is full and clear which I appreciate. Production quality is key when presenting yourself to the public. This tune sounds professional and it is most definitely radio quality. The commercial potential of this record is more than likely limited but it is a nice track to listen to. Unfortunately it's not something I could see the younger demographic finding on their own. I would recommend licensing this tune to attract a wider range of listeners. The lyrical content is strong and I loved how expressive they were. I found them very relatable as a younger teen. The artist's voice lacks in dynamics but he really exceeds at hooking a listener with his performance quality. Every line was delivered perfectly and his tone fit well with the theme of the song. The structure of the entire piece is decent but it most definitely needs work. I could see it being popular but I need to see more effort from this artist. Good luck!

The intro is up beat and original. It is very melodious. the guitar makes it very tuneful. The vocals are a little weak and creepy but nothing awful. The lyrics sound very plain. the song overall is very balanced. Not something I would listen to everyday but still good non the less.

Nice and slow intro. Hear the beat building, nice job. The guitar sounds amazing. Let's get some lyrics. Pretty long intro. Artist sounds like he is preforming live, lyrics are hard to understand. Sounds like he has a nice voice, instrumentals are to loud on this track they take over the song. Good beat, good vibes from this song. Not sure if the artist and instrumentals are on the same page. To fix, I would recommend turning the instrumentals down a tad and changing the effect of the artist's voice. Make it more clear and understandable. A decent song.

the vocals are to soft and i couldn't understand anything the singer was saying. also the vocals kind of echoed which makes it more difficult to figure out what he's singing about. the instruments are ok and some parts were louder than others so it kind of fluctuated from being equal to one sound dominating the other. also it took sometime for the vocals to come in which kind of threw me off since i thought it was just an instrumental song. the song need some work.

Nice, original instrumentals. Sounds like you really took the time to bring good tones together and gave it a well deserved introduction. Although the instrumentals are nice and crisp, I found it a little difficult to hear the singer. Because it was tough to hear you over the music, I couldn't understand the lyrics. This could be a neat song with a Lyle fine tuning. I give you a 5 for the background music.

I like the beginning of the song, because it's so nice and quiet but then it takes forever until something "happens". And then nothing really happens throughout the entire song. I know this is probably a certain style of music but I'm not into your voice at all. It's so quiet that I can't understand a word you sing, so I can't even say anything about the lyrics. I have to say, I find the song kind of boring, I'm sorry. I'm sure you're a great artist.

Sounds a bit girly in the beginning. Catchy. I can see people buying this. Dynamics are just right. Melody is minor and major I believe. I enjoy the guitar in the soundtrack. Repetitive. I would buy it. Voice sounds a bit off. Try to remove the effect of the voice. I don't really get the lyric but overall, it's very catchy.

I like the electronic feel in the intro. The noise that increases in volume is cool and it gives the song a futuristic feel. I like the accompaniment of the guitars. It makes the song very slow and it gives the song good meaning. I love this song. The singer is very good. I love this style of music. The lyrics are smart. This is a great song. I like how the bass plays in the background of the singer. The space noises give it a nice and comfortable feel. The drums with the guitar sound fantastic. I like the beat very much.

I didn't like this song. It starts off with a nice pace and then that is all abandoned, I wish there was a little more up-beat time in this song. The soft methodical voice in this song really stood out. I would listen to this song while on a long walk somewhere. I wouldn't recomend this song to many people.

Tidal feeling synths ebb and flow as this wave like song soon becomes a gutiar army workout. The prog rock is slow and stately as a overly chorused melody threatens to out Queen Brian May. Then..the singers in a well? All that work to make the guitar sound epic and the poor vocalists recorded like an ignorant stepchild. I think its intentional but its like the bands embarassed of him. More guitar flows in and whats this all about? It feels like an attempt at Radioheads poignancy with a six-string overachiever winning the argument on whos #1. Decide if its an instrumental or not.

Everything is so perfect. There was not one single mistake. The intro was long but it was really nice. The way the beat started off was amazing. The timing between the instruments and the singing was perfect. The instruments are satisfying to listen to because the beat is so rhythmic. It's a mood booster. And I'm jealous over your voice. You have a pretty voice, and can sing well. Like very well. And the lyrics are perfect. The words are descriptive, and kept me interested the whole time.

The beginning of the song was very floaty in feeling and i was automatically being drawn into the sound of the melody. I think the song was creative and different, but needs more adding to it such as some stronger vocals and tempo changes. Artist has potential, and i liked the way he used his voice in a vulnerable way to match the mood of the song, but its not very mainstream or commercial. Could get radio play, and sound quality was sharp and professional.

This song is really nice and relaxing to listen to. The introduction starts off the song with a nice melodic piano piece with a solid drum beat in the background. It then moves onto the second part of the introduction with the guitar melody. This whole introduction sets the mood for the rest of the song. The singer comes in after the introduction with the first verse and he is heavenly. He sings very softly and with the digital effects placed upon the vocals really makes this song a work of art. The instruments used in this song have been perfectly selected and the melodies that they play fit with everything else. The is a large section in the middle of the song where the singer stops singing and it's just the other instruments for the rest of the song, this mixes things up a little so that the song isn't overly repetitive. The way that that this song was composed makes it sound like you're in heaven listening to the choir of the angels. I could definitely see this song taking on the ladder.

The memorable notes from the guitar heard quite unique to began this track. I enjoy the singer voice; it is wonderful and also amusing and also create warm sensation personally. The actual vocalist offers uniqueness with his voices and even can change my own feeling. Sadly with the artist's the musician skill level should really made better melody rather than this. The musical arrangement is without a doubt superb, especially the rhythm and also keyboard tones create a distinctive emotion for my taste. The artist are genius musician; Though I just do not like the verse. I'm sure the pattern is definitely very dull; There is great number of music using this pattern. The artist offers fantastic skills however they have to become far more inspiring in refrain section.

The song starts off outstanding and with a lot of qualities as well. The instrumental is quite lacking conviction a bit, you definitely need to work on that more so that is doesn't sound poor balanced. The lyrics are good but I'm not liking how low pitch your vocals are, it's out of tune and their's so many pitch problems involved within the song. I'm not a fan and wouldn't recommend. Just practice way more and you will be a accomplished artist.

nice, smooth introduction. can't understand some of the words. words and music flow. his voice is ok but nothing great. not a song to excite my senses. I don't care if I never hear this song again. it may make a musack list but I don't see it on any top lists.

Reviews for "Patient Zero" track

Great arrangement . This band has a lot of skill and it shows. I like that there well balanced , the band sounds great and so does the singers. I think they have a lot of potential and really elevate the standards in the game as rock artist . I find this song coming to life and have a great richness to it .

The track begins in mid tempo and there are guitar riffs among the keyboard riffs. They just seem to gradually raise in volume but it takes some time to get to the main melody. By this time, there is just a heavy buzzing of the electric guitars and then a short atonal delivery by the vocalist. After another extended instrumental, there is a guitar solo that is very tuneful but it repeats several times. This melody is too hard to listen too. As arranged, the vocals are tuneless and there are several intervals that contain the instrumental, that uses a lot of repetition. It just sounds chaotic.

The beginning build up of the song is really interesting and relaxing. The sounds mix well together and the instrument usage is well done. I find the vocals and the electric guitar to be a little off setting, as if I'm trying to figure out where the song is going. Perhaps a little too much going on in an inconsistent manner.

Interesting and different sound in the intro it makes me feel very relaxed listening to it. As it progresses it sounds more interesting and I love the sound of the artist's voice. Very smooth voice and gentle its very enjoyable to hear. I also love the song very different and would love to listen to it again. I'm hoping I will hear this song on the radio again.

The first part sounds like a song I have heard. I like the beat at the beginning. The intro might be a little too long and it is all calm and randomly bursts out into heavy metal. But I like the guitar. I like the lyrics of the song. After the heavy metal it turns into like a jazz/pop. The guitarist I can imagine like the calm guy in a rock band. This song needs more lyrics.

I am pulled deep into the sounds as soon as this song starts. Then this acoustic starts hitting power chords with a rock beat drum count in the background. The lyrics are short soft and are melded into the rhythm. Starts entrancing, and keeps you listening suspending you until the power chords start back. This track is great for listening or commercially for soundtracks. Great mood, great sound, and deserves a 10 out of 10.

The electric guitar in this song is simply awesome and really makes it great. I love this song for the instrumental portion of it, it completely makes up for the fact that you can't hear the singer for the very brief moment that they are singing. I don't really see this as being a song that would make it on the radio, rather, it is a song that would do well in something like Guitar Hero. That would be awesome. It has a great guitar part and would easily fit into an easy level of the video game.

The guitar in the beginning is quite calmjng. The vocalizations during this instrumental portion is interesting considering that it draws in the listeners attention. The vocals enter at an awkward segment then is interupted by quite a long instrumental ballad. The rougher texho portion was quite interesting and grabbed my attention. However, this song as a whole was not as good as I believe it could be.

The few words were positive from what I could here. The vocal arrangement was low. The melody was good. The instrumentals was very good. The music was kind of unorganized. The vocalist sounded nice from what i could hear. I found the flow disjointed and not an easy song to move to. The over all feel of the song was ok. I had a good feeling for this song in the end.

I like the feel with the guitar. It flows really well with the drums, but the guitar definitely has a distinct sound to it. Then there is this sound that comes every so often and it's really good, that flows really well with this as well. The guitar quickly changes and that's really cool because it's so diverse. I like how it goes from escalating up to just a lot of energy. The voice however has no energy whatsoever. The guitar and drums are great but the voice just isn't making the right pitch or sound. Try finding the higher, more energized pitch. The guitar is really saving this song though. At the end the guitar gets a little too repetitive, and the lyrics aren't much at all. They just sound like something they made up really quickly. And when the singer sings, the guitar goes to a bad sound/tone. I can't understand the guy and what the lyrics are now. It's not much of a good song. It needs more energy with the singer for sure, the guitar is the only good thing in this song.

WOW! What do I need to say more.. Just the start was amazing. This song can be a hit. Everything about this is just amazing 10/10. This guy you need to make more of these kinds of songs there just amazing. Noting more to say about this song. Don't need to say about the stayol it's just amazing that all you need to know about this song. This song need to be every were. I mean that out of all the songs that I have revied this is just the best one that I have seen. I would pay 15$ just of this song a long. Hopye this review this help full make more of this kind these kind's of songs in the future. The very diffrent song elements are just amazing. :)

The intro begins with a basic guitar part, that continues a little longer than what I would have liked for it to. It doesn't really do much to keep my interest. Then it finally starts getting good with an electric guitar build-up, but then everything gets really muted. The singing comes in and fits well with the electric guitar part, though not the most unique of voices. I think the production needs to be cleaned up a bit and the song needs more to make it stand out, and then it could be popular on radio stations and the like.

Has a good intro, slightly long so shorteninf it could be helpful. The intro doesnt exactly transition smoothly with the rest of the song. The ltrics are clear to understand but could be louder, the voice is a little throaty which has its appeal and fits with the rhythm of the song. There are some parts of the beat that do not exactly fit and seem out of place. The spaces between the lyrics could be shortened. Overall the lyrics and vocals are good, but the beat needs work to fit better. With work could be succesful.

I find the song too slow, starts slowly, with a weird background noise, I wouldn't like to listen to this. Progresses to what sounds like instruments, and a male voice, singing along slowly to the boring melody. Commercially I do think there is a market for this song. I think to be a bigger success a better melody would be better, and more words.

This has an interesting drawing in feeling. The three instruments have a drawing in effect of hypnosis. This is an alright piece but it tends to continue too long without much change. This makes me think that it is an instrumental piece. This is not a good quality for an instrumental piece. Since it is not an instrumental, this is also not a good choice for this type of song musically. The vocalist comes into the song too late. A song like this does not need drawing out. The listeners will grow weary and bored listening to this.

The start of the song sounded very weird and maybe too strange for radio play. I doubt it would get many listeners, as its very plain and more of an instrumental track than anything else, okay used for adverts. Artist came in very late to the song, and the vocals were mediocre, nothing special or memorable.

Starts with a distant electric guitar that immediately establishes the rhythm for the song. The tempo is medium paced, but has a pretty good groove to it. The distant murmur in the background adds a great atmosphere. The drum production is very clear, and the beat is unique. The guitar fades in perfectly along with the rest, and the melody has a beautiful tone. Reminds me of queens of the stone age. These guys certainly go with the flow, leading eachother up and down the scales in perfect unison. The guitar riffs are heavy and interesting, and the keys constantly change as the song goes on, adding a sense of energy. This is a great song id love to hear on an alternative radio station.

The song at first sounds nice, but then before too long it becomes quite repetitive and a tad annoying. Then the song throws in a nice guitar riff and some good vocals and the song takes a nice turn. The song was mostly enjoyable except for the beginning. The melody was nice and the song was decently arranged. The artist could have started singing a bit earlier as to get the song going, or added some more instruments possibly. Im not sure if the song would be mainstream but I could see it being played somewhere.

This track has some real good melody and I like how the sounds echo from the back, giving this song depth. A very mellow vibe here but also a somber feeling as I continue to listen. I don't like the electric guitar entrance s it doesn't match the tone of the song. the vocals here are very good but there isn't enough lyrics to make this feel complete. This song has no structure and feels like a freestyle session instead. No balance also as the tempo constantly changes, which throws off the balance. This song doesn't have any arrangements as well and is being pulled into too many directions. This track should be started over and with better productions, balance, structure, and flow to be a complete song.

Song was alright for having barely any lyrics. You should have added more lyrics to the song it would probably be an better song. It sound like the song would be good in a movie or a youtube video. His singing voice was pretty cool. I Would rate this song an six from me.

Reviews for "World Map Theme" track

The intro of this song is very unique and catchy. Sounds very Halloween-like. I don't know if this song is supposed to have vocals or not, but for what I'm sampling, it seems very nice. I love the piano and the simple melody its playing. If I could just listen to that and get rid of the obnoxious guitar in there, it would sound a lot nicer. Overall I really like this song a lot. This proves that you don't need a voice to make a song great.

The progression in the keyboard keys, strums of guitar strings, and playful sounds of the flute are so satisfying and amazing. The guitar is the hard core. It is the heart and soul of this song. I love when guitars are in songs and it just makes you feel period. Lyrics are not necessary at all with this song. The instrumentals speak louder than lyrics could ever do. This song has rock but soul to it and that is incredible. I give this artist's amazing feedback on this track because they told a story of great story through their instruments. I love that so much!!

The instrumental opening of this song is lovely and dramatic, especially as new instruments are added in changing the dynamic of the tune. I kept waiting for vocals to begin, and almost wish there were vocals in the song. However, I think the music can stand alone and could potentially be used in films or videos for dramatic effect. While I like the music I normally listen to to have lyrics, I still liked this song and the emotions it conveyed. The ending did seem a little abrupt, though.

What a lovely introduction! Though the electronically produced sounds are quirky they do add a nice touch. The real fun began when the electric guitar came in. One of my favorite things about this track iso that it is extremely dynamic. Often these EDM tracks are repetitive and overwhelming but this track hits the mark. My only complaint is the poor production quality. Though it is not the worst I've ever heard…it's not the best either. There is always room for improvements. Overall, I enjoyed this song and would listen again.

That synth is very cool! The melody is very catchy! Wow, the guitar melody is even more catchy! I like the way the synth and the guitar seem to be dueling in the beginning. You've added the proper effects in the proper places to make the guitar solo sound very clean and mix well with the rest of the track. Also, great use of sharps and flats. I was pleasantly surprised by the keys toward the middle of the song and would have loved to hear more throughout! Overall, well done!

Not a bad sound. Instantly you are drawn in wanting to hear where the song takes you. The guitar is amazing, and pulls the listener along on a flawless journey. I cannot wait to hear lyrics with this song. It sounds like something very mainstream. The change in instruments is interesting at points and seems odd at others, but the climax draws you right back in. The tempo is driving the song. Love it.

Aural tradition Many types of music, such as traditional blues and folk music were originally preserved in the memory of performers, and the songs were handed down orally, or aurally (by ear). When the composer of music is no longer known, this music is often classified as "traditional." Different musical traditions have different attitudes towards how and where to make changes to the original source material, from quite strict, to those that demand improvisation or modification to the music. A culture's history may also be passed by ear through song. Ornamentation Main article: Ornament (music) In a score or on a performer's music part, this sign indicates that the musician should perform a trill—a rapid alternation between two notes. About this sound Play (help·info) The detail included explicitly in the music notation varies between genres and historical periods. In general, art music notation from the 17th through the 19th century required performers to have a great deal of contextual knowledge about performing styles. For example, in the 17th and 18th century, music notated for solo performers typically indicated a simple, unadorned melody. However, performers were expected to know how to add stylistically appropriate ornaments, such as trills and turns. In the 19th century, art music for solo performers may give a general instruction such as to

The music came across is very quiet and subdued. The introduction was interesting and not super appealing. Each element stood out on it's own and didn't layer together to a cohesive piece. The electric guitar was the star of the piece of music but didn't stand out as something outstanding or impressive. It was an average piece of music to me.

I like that the song starts off faded and builds up. it keeps me interested and makes me want to see how the rest of the song goes. the guitar melodies are nice. you can tell the guitarist is talented. the keyboard seems slightly out of place and not really needed in this song. They should have just had the guitar. I think the more the song god on the worse it gets. it started off strong but now it just fades inter noise. I think there should be vocals and the keyboard should be cut. it goes from rock to hazy computer piano. not a good mix and not a enticing song.

fun song. nicely put together orchestra. guitar and piano reminds me of TSO. I am not a big listener but good sounds are good sounds. it has an easy flow , nice build up and end. it won't make a top 40 list but it wasn't totally awful.i believe this music would sound better live.

The intro is very good it sounds like an intro to a carrie underwood song. i dont like the weird intruments that come in. i like the guitar very much. then the weirdinstuments came in. it really sounds like you stole this from carrie underwoods song that goes like theres not enough wind in oklahoma to wash the sands out of the ground, theres not enough swag to lick a potato. i personally dont like the lyrics. just kidding. i like the electric distorted guitar near the end the best.

quiet intro and then right into the song. nice. I like the video game effects. It reminds me of zelda. Its like the guitar is telling a story with the flutes. I feel like this piece is trying really draw you in. I love how it make me want to play fighting games. I feel like the piano is talking to the guitar and the guitar feels pain so thats why the riffs got heavy and the song seemed sad in the split moment. but the high pitch guitar solo sounds like a time of redemption. then it go quiet again.

A fast piano begins this song, joined not long after by a strange riff that is more irritating which leaves us but soon returns. A random selection of guitar riffs are bundled together, mixed badly against the drums and synths. The song then starts some strange piano keys, which are then followed by a heavy guitar. This piece of music is very badly put together, individually it is all well and good but together it's a horrible mess.

The song starts out very mellow. There is a melody that goes through out the whole song that is very strong and distinctive until the guitar melody. This is very good background music for say a Movie trailer. I think this could be big in the electric and maybe even classical music scene.

Guitar is dreamy, a good surprise after the ethereal introduction. Has a somewhat dark and spooky feel to it, with a heavier rock edge. Not sure who this song would appeal to overall, probably rock radio stations - I don't think it has the potential for wide success. For what seems like an instrumental song I think it would work best in a video game setting, or perhaps on a commercial.

Spooky wind and a piano get augmented by some synths and a distorted guitar playing lead figures in this prog rock beginning. I cant guess where this is heading but if it stays sans vocals its a guitarists showcase to blow leads against semi-futuristic twiddling. Obviously a song here is just a reason to play lots of fuzzed out leads and scrunch your face up. A bit one dimensional.

The start of the song didn't really interest me, and was a bit weak in sound, the effects were a bit like arcade sounds or computer video game music. I thought the rock guitar coming in made the song sound a bit more interesting, but it was still a slow build up, and the lack of vocals makes it less commercial, so i don't see it getting far in the charts, more like background music than anything else.

The introduction to this song is very unique. The piano has a very nice melodic line while the drums give a very solid beat that engages the listener. After the introduction, you get this very powerful rock beat which is very unexpected, but it is what carries you through the song. There are also brief moments of 'peace' throughout the song which goes back to something very similar to the beginning. Although it does fluctuate, the drums that are being played throughout the song gives the song a level of consistency and this drum line is needed to keep the song from completely falling apart. Overall, I quite enjoyed this song, it has a catchy melody to it and it uses different techniques, such as digital effects, to keep the song interesting and the listener engaged.

The instruments in this song are played really well. The sound effects in the song were very different and creative. I felt that the beginning was a bit too long, but I enjoyed the sounds. I don't think this song would chart because there is nothing catchy about it nor is there a singer actually singing over the song. The beats came in on time and made the song feel more vibrant and awesome.

The artist play it with their experience on arranging the actual opening, I like the song! Solid character by this singer is totally amazing. There's no doubt that the vocalist is a very good musician with excellent vocal quality. The arrangement is certainly way too simple and also poor personally, I am for sure with the artist's skills the artist can easily create better lyric rather than this. I really like how the arranger recorded this track; I think the arranger seems to have many experience for creating a record. The artist really are genius musician; Though I just do not enjoy that notes. The notes is actually far too simply I'm sure there is a number of songs with similar notes, the arranger must be more imaginative for making far better notes for refrain. I am absolutely sure this unique songs can be successful if the artist repair the refrain element.

Reviews for "Palliative" track

This song has a sort of upbeat sound to it, though the droning and echo or reverb laden guitar is a bit confusing as a choice for tone and timbre. The song seems to be an instrumental, which means the instruments are a big focus and the mix isn't really awesome enough to make this one of the better instrumentals I have heard. Wow, there is a singing part! That was a long section without singing for a song with singing. The mix and instrument timbre that comes through isn't top notch, and the vocals are sort of similar. The sound that the singer has, the tone of voice and the way he is singing through the effects, works well with the echo or reverb sounding stuff. The sound isn't so bad, the lead guitar licks where kind of an interesting part of the composition as well. The song is a bit catchy, but it keeps it interesting and is coherently the same song, holding the motif it needs to make it all one thing even though it evolves and changes. The production quality is maybe the issue, as far as the mixing and mastering goes. Broadcast radio seems to play songs with better production and this song is hard to figure into a specific style that radio stations play. I think it may be synth pop, not sure though. The song had an interesting mix of upbeat rhythm and melodies with the tone being slightly different and overall I think it worked and things matched but the timbre quality is just not there and the recording lacks in the mixing department. I also hear more words or singing in songs on the radio, of course aside from classical stations and instrumental focused jazz etc. The singing reminds me of Beck, it doesn't sound like him/them but in the way that he sings or vocalizes.

I like the blend of instrumental sounds in this piece. They create a varied sound that makes this song interesting and unpredictable. The singer's have a unique singing style. Unfortunately, the audio to this song went out before this song ended so I cannot comment further. From what I did hear, the words need to be sung a little clearer.

The guitar introductions is sloaw and seems as if it is going to lead into a rock song. This is not the case, it leads into a soft song where the background noise is the focus. the song is quiet one moment and loud the next. The volume needs to be controlled better with this song. there is little activity with the song. the song is made for background noise, nothing more. there is background sound in the song that sounds like it can be heard, but is unable to be distinguished. There could be more activity in the song and the vocals could be made easier to be heard. This song is not good and needs some major fixes.

It's a rock rhythm by the guitarist the rock element of this song is very strong. But the recording is poor; I think the guitar sound is clearer than the vocalist's voice. The drummer is quite good but I think he just this song averagely. He can't keep the beat constantly. The lyric is dull, why they create a song rock for this lyric "Halloween is back to the town" I don't have any idea why they made it. Maybe they lack of creativity or something like that. Overall, this is an average rock song recorded poorly. They have a skill but need more than a skill to create a great music. For commercial purpose I think this song have a bad chance to be commercial.

This song was decent, if a bit confusing. It almost sounded like a Matchbox 20 cover in the beginning, but overall it has a relaxing melody. The tempo has a carefree feeling to it, the keyboard in it is a bit juvenile, but the percussion grounds it. The vocals featured toward the end of the track were a bit muddled, but it has an almost soothing quality. Not too bad.

love the song. perfect instrument combination. I don't know if the lead instrument is a trumpet or a saxophone. but it is played nicely. The song has a Christmas feel to the song. the choir comes as a surprise closer toward the center of the song. Great lay out for the construction of the song.

It took ten seconds to hear something, a little too long of an intro, but the intro isn't too bad. The guitar and drums work well together and the guitar has a very distinct sound to it that flows. As the beat changes, the guitar goes away and goes to digital sound and it's really unique. Hard to come by the unique stuff like this today. The vocals are different. Too much autotune, it doesn't seem like he is confident enough with his voice. I can't understand the voice that much either, sort of rugged, rough, and spacy. A very digital like song, but it flows well. I don't know how well organized the song was though. The song was just long enough though. Get some more lyrics in here, there wasn't much and I didn't understand what the song was about. The beat was uplifting though, and with uplifting lyrics it could be a lot better.

The song is really good to hear. People should listen more to this kind of song so that people should appreciate it more. Its a happy beat so that it would affect people happiness and not the sadness that we don't want to encounter in songs that we listen the most.

The introduction begins with a screeching noise that I didn't care for, and that didn't seem to fit the instrumentation that abruptly started and took over. It sounded like it was going to bring in some singing, but it didn't happen. The song kept switching back and forth between styles and sounds, but not in a way that flowed. It needs to make up its mind. then, the singing finally did start, but it was way over-processed and electronic. If the song were to find its identity and stick to it, I could see it having potential. But as of now, it's a bit too dull for my taste.

Has a nice slow take it easy kind of vibe. I love the guitar playing. it makes you feel like there is no care in the world. i love how the one switches up during the middle. i is a great relation kind of song. it is very therapeutic and make you think of the future. it has a uplifting vibe

love the intro. sounds like something off the Sims game play!(just a fun fact). love the sounds I'm hearing. Like how the beat is going from slow to a little fast. I can most definitely groove or all out dance to this. took a little for the song to start which kind of threw me off but its ok.

At the start, I feel like im about to be abducted by pop aliens. Now with that aside, it is something to listen to while doing written work or college assignments too. Its a solid song if your into more of an electric execution of a song. Its defiantly different than most song witch really gives it that unique aspect. That in my opinion is what will draw in more of a crowd, especially people with the same interests in music as me. It is good so I would give it a solid 9 out of 10.

Love the intro. Soothing calm and collected song. i love the instrumentals. this song can be a hit for people that just like to chill. i like the instrumentals in this song. This is the type of music id listen to on a day just to have a little pick me up, or a rainy day when I'm stuck inside.

I quite like the instrumental at the beginning, guitar and drum it sounds to be. Progresses to more of a melody. Lovely tune. Would prefer there to be singing, something to sing along too. After the first minute and a half, singing comes in, lovely tone to the voice if the vocals. Lyrics are good. Overall, I do believe this song has good commercial ability.

I don't really get the point of the intro, I don't even really know what it sounds like? I guess it's like a quiet night? It is a sweet instrumental nothing that really stands out for me though, I honestly think he starts singing way to late but his voice is interesting but it almost sounds like he is mumbling and I can only make out some of the words that he says, the sound is just a bit to boring. Unfortunately I don't think this song could be a hit.

I really like the tempo in this song. It really flows nicely! I like the guitars in this I really wish songs like this were played on the radio. Although there isn't any lyrics I still dig it! Kinda like a hippy song. I like the tempo makes for a new style song! Maybe a promo for a commercial or some such! 9/10 very creative

The sound effects during the introduction was good. When the instrumentals and the beat started in the beginning of the song I knew this was a winner. I love the tones of the song and the way they switched the pace in the beat. Very good instrumental that stands out from the rest. This is something that I would hear when playing a neat video game. Very good song with cool effects. Great creativity.

A lot of melody from the beginning of this song and the audio is clear and clean, which gives this a live performance type of feel. The beat is constant but changes tempo to much and really never gets into rhythm, throughout the song. This song lacks a proper structure and is good for video games not the radio. All of the tunes sound amazing as they blend together as well. The vocals in the mid level are cool and adds some character to this. All in all, a very melodic track here but it lacks structure, balance, symmetry, and flow.

I really like the way this track started. That distant ring leading to a smooth riff. Reminds me of the eagles. The drum production is crisp and you can almost feel yourself in the room with the artist. The addition of keys is subtle yet adds to the song. They change throughout and give the song a solid sense of variety. You can feel the artist dragging you ears all around his distinct noise spectrum. The vocals ring through clear with a beautiful melody that matches the rest of the track. Thr lyrical content is interesting and gives off a great vibe. The bridge enhances the energy of the song, and you can feel it reach its epic climax as walls of guitar solos cover your entire ear canal. A very solid track id love to hear on the radio.

This techno track is a bit too slow that it loses its initial vitality only about twenty seconds in. What I would suggest that there be a faster pace in order to keep up with more attractive lyrics, in order to make this stand out, with more potential, among other techno tracks and to be a bit more vocal with lyrics rather than focusing on the music only.

That is a cool effect. Nice the notes are very good. It give me a happy feeling. I think it's the bass that sound that. The break down was good. This is a very relaxed beat. I like that lead that they used, the notes are catchy as well. Once the vocals came in it got a lot better.
