I would lóve some reviews, they are really helpful since i have still a lot to learn, so please, if you vote / download the song, also leave a review for me. Guess it's not such a problem? ;)

WOOOT! First Top Five in mah Life! ;D
Thanks everyone who voted! I'm réally happy with this. (:

First off... I don't think people know what this means to me.

I have had a lot of writers blocks in my musician's career. And all of those were all by the simple reason that i never ever got a confirmation if my music was good or not...

This really gives me a confidence boost, and i am really a lot happier than i should ever be with a simple Internet week-prize, but i am really filled with happiness right now!

Submission #100

Normally, i do not spend more than 2 to 4 hours on a song.

Although, as i started to understand everything in Fruity Loops a lot more, i thought it was time for making songs with a bit more care, spending more time and thinking about melodies, rhythms, structure and all the song ingredients more than i normally do.

I have spent about 15 hours on this song so far...
It's a Newgrounds-Version, which isn't fully complete, not fully mastered, and most important, the real version is already around 2 minutes longer, which will most probably be more in the end.

Song Facts:
- 80 Patterns
- 40 Automation Clips
- Over 80 Inserted / Recorded Wav Files / Audio Clips

I hope you guys like the Version so far!

A low quality full version will be coming soon, and the full quality will be available for purchase as a sponsorship soon too...

A review would really mean a lot to me, since it's a song i've spent a lot of time on for my doing. (:

Plus, i would recommend you all to listen to my other song, Yellow Dot, if you like this one. It's actually in the same kind of style, but a little more experimental :)

Author's Response:

Hehe it is certainly nót with flash, I myself use Fruity Loops and a lót of plugins, software synthesizers and drum packs to make these songs, think off a total package of around 4 GB.

But there's choice between...
-Hardware Recording ( isn't done a lot in electronica )
-Fruity Loops
-Reason
-Pro Tools
-Ableton
-Cubase

And well... a lót more. ;)

"Great"

date: March 17, 2009

Other than above, the name isn't fitting IMO.

March 17, 2009

Author's Response:

Hehe i wasn't really inspired when i chose the name.

My song names do not make sense though...
Although it's funny you say it doesn't fit, since there is nó guideline in the song to a certain topic, or whatsoever. Since there are no lyrics.

Thanks for the review though!
