This is an odd piece.
It started out as a description of myself. I saw myself as a bloodstained phoenix: I'd been killed and reborn so many times that the blood just wouldn't seem to wash away. And that's how I started this song.
I stopped writing 5 or 6 months ago at about 1:47 into the song because I didn't know how to finish it. I wanted it to have an uplifting ending, but since it was a description of myself... I couldn't finish it at the time, all because I just hadn't gotten that far in my life yet.
But recently, that last chapter opened up to me, and I finished it at last.
This would be why the end sounds so much better - I've gotten that much better since when I first began writing this. I decided not to change the original part, because I like how it shows who I was then, versus who I am now. Perhaps you'll find that just as interesting as I do.
Comments are greatly appreciated!
Enjoy.

I know that what you sent me 5/6 months ago :P
I didn't know what to do, because it's YOUR piece and now you finished I'm happy that I didn't help you with it. You surely did a nice thing! I must say, that I like the beginning the most of all, but that's just a matter of taste.
Good things:
I really like the piano melody (in beginning especially), violin, cymbals, high pitched background synths, drum highpassing, drum fills.
Tips: Buy a (Midi) keyboard and really let yourself going with real played notes: you'll certainly hear difference! Though, I still don't know how the hell you do it now; let it sound this realistic without a keyboard...
I'd delete the last note of this piece xD I like the semi out of tune note and when you "play" the last note, the C, it feels... argh... don't know how to say, just not really right.
Drums: I think they sound too plain, or it's just the fact that I (and you) have used them too often: the "reason rock kits". You could try to pick a electronic kit, but that's totally up to you (off course)
These "tips" are just nitpicking and I think you really did a nice job!
5/5, 10/10,

lol yeah, I remember when I sent this to you for help. I thought for a while that it would end up sitting on my computer and never being released, but here it is.
XD I thought that last note would kill you inside. It does that to me a little bit, too. It's a little too easily resolved that way... which, unfortunately, is the symbolism I was aiming for. Sorry, bud. The note of ear-death must stay.
Yeah, I'm really hoping I can let loose with an actual keyboard one of these days. Still don't have the cash, though. As for how I do it without one... let's just say it takes a crapload of time, and I'm really, really picky. Just wait till you hear BTS, which is done with the exception of an effect that requires me to take a recording of a very busy friend. I've never been so picky with the sound before.
lol I hate the drums a bit, too. Maybe I should have gone with glitch or something... Meh, it's done now, and I probably won't end up fixing it (unless someone commissions a redux of it). I'll keep it in mind for next time.
Thanks a lot, bud - I always do appreciate your reviews!

Stunning :D
I downloaded it when you submitted and then realized now "Hey! I didn't write a review yet!"
So..here's my epic review ;)
Im lovin the piano dude! I'm bad with reviewing stuff but yeah, it definetly has a feel to it like all of your music! You put your soul and emotion into your work rather than just spamming some crappy offbeat techno!
And that there was my epic review!
Yes! This review is of epic proportions, truely!
lol, thanks for your review. I appreciate it, and I'm glad you enjoyed the piece, Duchednier.
