thank you :)
I really enjoyed this. The slides in the melody and bass are really cool, I feel like they make the music flow a lot better than if they weren't there. The composition was great. I'm jealous about the mix/master, I wish I could be that good and make my songs that crisp sounding. I also enjoyed the calm moments with all the sound effects, made me think of sitting outside on a summer day and just listening to the birds.
My only real issues with the track is that maybe it's a smidge too repetitive. I felt like there could have been so many more melodies to build off of the original one. I also think it's a tad too "mainstream", in the sense it's a bit cliche for a dancey techno song. These kinds of melodies and progressions are done a lot in the dance songs I've heard, and it really reminded me a little of the melodies SKILLZmakeKILLZ makes in their dance music.
But other than that, I enjoyed the track. Good composition, great mixing/mastering, and an overall good song. Nice job on this, guys!

Thanks for the detailed review! These are rare :)
Cool rendition haha, I like it. Sounds like a simple happy piece.
I don't feel like the piano in the beginning was quite fitting of the techno that seemed to take precedent over the piano notes, especially when the rest of the piece was more or less governed by inorganic instruments. Also... (how to put my finger on it...), its not a problem persay, but I'm listening up to 1:54 at the moment, by the time I finish probably the entire thing. There are never many instruments playing at once, which is often necessitated for a chorus or climax unless you want to stick to the simple sounding style. The note progression also sounded rather repeated, abused even, at times. But like I said, it all lend itself to the simple sounding style; if this is what you were aiming for, I applaud the effort. If it wasn't... well I applaud anyways lol.
