Very good.

This is a very nice track. The melody and rhythm are both very strong, but not overpowering. As "darthduba" said, the melody is repetitive, but it's catchy so it doesn't get boring. This is a song I'll have in my head a year from now and I'll think "Argh, this tune is so catchy, where have I heard it?", so I'll save myself the bother and favourite it now ;D. Well done!

If I had to offer constructive criticism, I'd say maybe add in a bridge where the main melody does some crazy improvization just before the end, but the song is great as it stands!

Thanks man =]

lol you two both have awesome names XD

Amazing; my first 10 in quite a while!

First off: Wow! I have a slight techno/trance bias so when I saw the title on the frontpage I was moderately excited. So I half-assed clicked expecting some crappy 40 second let down...

Instead I am presented with this awesome intro. Then melody. Sitting here, stunned, I write this review of the most technical, diverse, well thought through piece of music I have heard on Newgrounds in several weeks. From the plucky bassline, to the heavy arpeggios, to the reverbing saws, I enjoyed every second. Thank you, I hope you go far and continue to producve music of this standard!

Fionnhodgson responds:

Thanks for the great review!

I had a lot of fun making this, It was going to be a hardcore track, but making euphoric string sequences got the better of me, so I made it trancy!

Cluttered, but not bad

Some quite advanced for your second song. It was very cluttered and had no real groove. I think your next step would be to just scan through some groove and beat tutorials and put some more groove in to it. Other than that, not to bad. Oh and the name doesn't really matter, a tip from me.

VitalNovix responds:

Thanks a lot for the advice. I'll have to jump on that, lol...

Nice indeed

Indeed it was a nice one, not aweome, but nice. I liked the reverb. One fault I had with it though: it was very Garagebandish. I wont fault you for it, but I used that drum loop myself when I used Garageband. If more samples exist - get them. If not, tough luck, either way I'll look forward to hearing your songs again.

Xptiger responds:

it was very Garagebandish because it's the only music software i've got. i tried other samples but none of them sound very good and that one just fitted better. anyway thanks for the review!!!

Surprising what you can do with static, hm?

The first couple of seconds, I thought "Brilliant. The static in the title was actually literall." But then the accompaniment came in and I was pleasantly surprised. Not bad, not bad.

resheth responds:

Thanks! Thats pretty much what I was going for, originality and diversity.

Not bad

Hmm, I liked the beats, it was a bit short. I recognized a few loops, like the guitar from GarageBand. Other than that, pretty good. Hope to see more from you in the future.

themightysword responds:

Ross your a gay.. Thanks for the response though.

Wow!

There is a lot of Mario remixes, but this really stands out! I loved it! The techno bit, the crazy fast bit, the drums, everything! It's hard to put into words how I liked it. I just did. Much <3 my friend!

HouseMasta responds:

thanks a bunch man! yea, this piece is that good. its been downrated thanks to those who who want their music higher than mine, but its still holding up. thank you for the 10 [and voting if you did]

-HM

Pretty good

I've never heard the original but I have heard it before. Its not as fast but I still like it. I did think that guitar squeak qot a bit annoying after a while, but what can i say? I liked it!

ZombiePosessor responds:

Yeah, that guitar hiss really annoys me too, but I love the sound the distortion has, so I had to sacrifice that.

five takeaway five

Yay! I liked the style and everything sooo much, and since this was so weird and backwards I decided to give 5 TAKEAWAY 5! Thank you =)

Sabreton responds:

Haha, I love your perspective :P

Hey, if you want to see something rubbish, check out my latest piece of crap called OMG PUSSY HENTAI OMG

W0OT

Usually I would talk sense, like i found this tune quite good, but I cant keep it in! WoW! Thats just such a good song. Cmon Everyone ''All night long!'' Man you have really outdone yourself. Well Done for taking my brain with this!
