[Echo]

Incredible, simply incredible.

I cant say i found a lot that sounded wrong, even from the point of view of anyone who hates this style, this is simply something you can never ignore.

A brilliant, atmospheric intro, with amazing glitchy melodies. The build up into the main melody was simple sublime, nothing wrong whatsoever with the transition. U also looked like u put extra focus into building the atmosphere, and it paid off, as the depth and background on this was simply fantastic. The chords in the background were simple amazing, harmonized beyond perfection.

The gltichy melodies, as ive said before, caught my attention and didnt let go till the song had looped five times. Simply superb, varied, interesting, harmonized, everything that makes them perfect really. Drums too, were focused and varied, providing a steady rhtym which paid off in terms of both overall originality and background blend.

Outro was great too, closing the song off fantastically. Theres only one thing i can find that bothers me (arent i picky :p) and that was that the song felt like it was building up towards a superb climax but this never actually came! Still, overall, this is a great song and fully deserves all the high points it can get.

Intro/Outro = 1/1
Blend = 2/2
Mel./Transition = 2.5/3
Drums + Bass = 2/2
Originality = 2/2

coooool

I like the intro :D But I think instead of adding drums strait away you could have played around with that "breath pad", like gated it or added an effect which lead into the drums. Meh, just giving you ideas, like instead of just playing around with drums the whole time, you could play around with the background too.

I liked the slowness of the song, but it could have had an epic climax, or just a tempo increase, but I suppose it is ambient with drums so....

Good to see its not just bass drum hats and snare, you also threw in some wierd percussion sounds.

After a while that pad sort of becomes kinda mundane. Maybe you could have faded it out for a while and then come in with some mega fast piano line.

Well then, good luck on your next song!

SessileNomad responds:

actually i don think i threw any odd precussives in there, just odd ways of manipulating them :)

Nice atmosphere

I really like the atmosphere this song creates. It makes me feel uncomfortable, but at the same time I think: "Ah, it could be worse. I can work this out if I just try hard enough!"
So I think this song could be used in a scene where the main character goes through a difficult period in his/her life. At first s/he thinks about just giving in, but then decides to buck up and tries to fight the problems.

This is just so amazing!

This is just an awsome song, I really don't know what else to say! People tend to exagerate the word "EPIC" , but this really is epic! I mean, it really prevokes thought, it get's you thinking of a story of some sort, what-ever it may be. It could really be anything you want it to be. Thanks for reading this!

SessileNomad responds:

ha if you liked felix^3 and this you really should check out some of my later works, they blow this stuff out of the water

Really good!

I enjoyed listening to this song :-)
The intro is perfect and leads those nice pads in. The drums are good, but i would've made the snare drum a bit more warm if you know what i mean. But only in the beginning, because later in the song it fits perfectly.
I love how you glitch everything, but still keep a quite calm atmosphere. Oh, about the atmosphere, you did a great job on creating that.
I did expect more of a climax though, because i feel it building up and up, but there's no real climax. It gets calmer instead. This is good too, but i really would've liked an 'explosion'. I hope i'm not being too vague :p
About the ending.. i really liked that.
It seems like the song stops at 01:57, but it didn't play an A note to resolve it yet. I was like 'Please let there be an A, let there be an A, let there be an AAAAhhh..''
Then i heared it. It was a relief. Sort of :p
Once again, good luck in the NG Audio Deathmatch. I'm wondering if this is the last time i'm going to say that :p
