Damn Straight.

Wow, keyboard skills much!?!? Kudos on the playing ability and overall feel of the song!

...Yeah, I would have never guessed you played this live. Over-quantising something you played live is always a pretty good way of making it sound that way...I think that unless you really have played it THAT out of time, that you shouldn't quantise live things any more than is needed, because having everything dead-straight on time is a good way to make it sound synthesized. Perhaps more than that is the fact that every note is being played at what seems to be the exact same dynamic, so I'd say that either you need to work on your dynamics a lot more and/or if you're using an electric keyboard, see if it is touch-sensitive as far as how loud it will play the notes, or fiddle with the dynamics of it in reason to give it a more natural sound.

I thought the cymbal at the start (or whatever it was?) with the piano was a little weird, just because generally you don't start songs with a cymbal crash? xD
I liked the drum beat that came in after, though. It was present, but didn't overpower the piano and had some really nice glitchy sounds to it. I was about to say it was lacking a bass but then realised it was my speakers sucking, so now with headphones in I can say I really like the bass/again, present, but not overpowering. And at 1:30ish or so, you also had some quieter piano(?) sounds in the back which were really nice.
I think it's the entrance of the string/wind sounds at 1:40ish where you lost me on the hip-hop idea. But then again, I'm a total noob when it comes to what hiphop is in general, never mind olskool hiphop, so maybe this is what it does sound like xD As a piece in general though, I did like it. Despite the slightly-manufactured sound of the piano, you did have a lot of feeling there and I think this really matched the title of your song. Keep it up.

Good song

This song creates a very good atmosphere. Just the right thing I need on a sunny day like this. :)
It feels very relaxing, but it also feels as if there's some kind of "threat" in the background. This fits really good to the title. Just as if the song is saying: Yes, there are some problems that needs to be adressed, but everything is going to be all right, so don't worry.

I really like this song.

I figured...

That I should review something from the RRC here so I don't go too inactive so I decided to review someone who I was familiar with. Sorry if the review isn't exactly helpful though because I'm really not in the mood to review this type of audio. I want something like heavy metal. :P

Anyway, yeah you played this on the piano? Hmm, I was going to state that I thought it sounded too manufactured, but if you played this on the piano then it wasn't a premade sound I guess. My ears have no clue what they hear anymore with my old age.

There seems to be a clash of genres that almost work great together, but just not quite yet. I think it had something to do with the glitchy sound that the drums gave off. It wasn't bad enough to make me dislike the song though.

The song really does give that feeling of pretending that everything is going to be alright. I think you did a wonderful job of portraying that feeling in this song. The fade out at the end was very effective as well.

Overall, the song was pretty good. There just seemed to be a bit of odds and ends that seemed to clash to me, but I just couldn't pinpoint them down to specifics.
