the tone was realy nice, and the bass was harmonized verry well, i like it alot

Author's Response:

Yeah, I picked a good chord progression and everything else just seemed to fall into place. Thanks for the review.

"My bad."

Your music definitely has a catchy quality about it. Obviously you prefer techno to trance or D&B. Though I'd have to say this has an electronic feel to it. I'm giving it a 5, and yeah.. I see that a lot of your music's been down-voted too. Since I'm a big promoter of this site's audio portal, I'll refer you to some people I know and get them download/listen and vote on some of your tracks. I just wish I could find out who's down-voting everyone's stuff so I could go burn their damn houses down. Anyways, sorry about before, your stuff is ace now as far as I'm concerned.

Author's Response:

Thanks a lot. I'd like to blame it on Newgrounds for being too lazy to track down people who vote 0 an absurd amount of times, but I can't really say anyone in particular.

I just wish there was some sort of incentive to vote towards audio so that normal audio-goers would vote 5 on their own accord.

Other then that, thanks a lot for the review!

"Nice job"

by: DavidOrr

I liked the chord changes in the piece, I havn't heard them used in that proggression too often.

I think you should look for some fuller sounds, the piece sounds like it's a midi file at times. Panning sounds can really work wonders too. What software are you using?

Nice job all in all, the piece has a great feel to it. 5/5

Author's Response:

Yeah, I liked the chords too.

As for the fuller sounds, at the end of the song I tried to pull that off with the lower arpeggio, but I screwed it up and had the wrong volume setting for it. It really bugs me because on my headphones it's too loud and on my speakers I can't hear it >_> It could have done with some panning too (although I panned a lot in this song if you pay attention, because I was having trouble hearing anything)

I'm using Fruityloops... Isn't that what everyone uses? (Except the pros who use Reason...)

Thanks for the review and 5! :)

"Hm......"

by: Anth0n

Yeah it's somewhat catchy, but "ridiculously" might be a bit of an overstatement. I like it, but the melody gets a bit repetetive after awhile and doesn't flow quite as smoothly as I think it potentially could.

But overall it's cool. 4/5 from me, keep it up :)

Author's Response:

Maybe it's an overstatement, but I really found those chords catchy... *shrug*

Thanks for the review!
