"Catchy goodness."
date: February 29, 2008
I enjoyed every part of this song -- it's not everyday that I can say something like that, but this.... this is truly awesome. This is the sort of song I could show to someone if I wanted to show them what Newgrounds had to offer, and I'd say, "Cool music," and play this. :D
The trumpets (please, like usual -- correct me if I'm wrong) played a surprisingly catchy tune throughout the song except in a few parts. And for me, that was my favorite part of all of them -- it was the melody while keeping the beat at the same time, and it sounded incredible.
The more techno-ish parts (more synthesized) sounded great too... again, I'm normally not this sort of fast beat kind of guy, but I really enjoy how you make the sound accessible and with an overall good quality -- compared to the other loops on Newgrounds, this stuff is gold. :D
The only problem I had with were the bass drums right before the end (only before the end -- they sounded good to me throughout the entire rest of the song...) -- I didn't particularly enjoy them, but I've never truly enjoyed percussion as much as other people... and it's no reason to dock anything from this amazing composition.

Your first paragraph makes me proud XD Though there is much better stuff out there in my opinion, it's still good to know there are people who think of this as a standard in awesomeness XD
This time you got it right, they are trumpets; they are actually the same as those heard in When All Things End, only here they come out much clearer.
I guess the bass drums conflict with the bigger amount of instruments in the end...
Again thanks, and again good to hear a very positive opinion.
