Mixing is just done so well. I really wish I didn't have Garageband
:(
~Nice job though

Thanks dude. Garage band can be put to good use if you use it right actually :3
Zyzyx, How Do You Create Your Songs And what Do You Make Them Off Of? I Love Your Songs They are My Favorite!
Well, this song is nice! It's similar to High Score (like High Score v2 or smth) and I also heard some parts which are pretty similar to Acsent(song by Teminite, sorry if I remember its name wrongly) but dunno if that's not just my imagination. But still this song is verily good!
This is good! But not perfect.
Pros:
-Definitely a tribute to High Score. It's impossible not to hear you channeling it, which was your intention, I guess, so good job.
-I liked the synths you used (at first). They were fairly close to High Score's, but not exact copies (though I do agree they were could kick in a bit more aggressively, even).
-The key change was a nice touch, though I wouldn't exactly call it "very seamlessly done."
-The mixing seemed good to me. I'm no expert on mixing of course, but I didn't notice any issues.
Cons (There are fewer cons, but the first one was definitely an issue for me):
-Okay, you're really kinda pushing it with the similarity to High Score. I know it's supposed to be inspired by them and all, but the chord progression and melody rhythm are alarmingly close and I can literally pick out parts of High Score and see exactly where your equivalent of it is (e.g. 1:36-2:09 in High Score has nearly identical rhythm and structure to 2:02-2:36 in this; the outros are almost identical). I'd love to see a bit more of your own take on the style.
-It's the same synths for all the main drop sections and melody the whole way through. The exact same. It could stand some variation there.
So yeah, this piece could really stand some shaking things up, but overall this is pretty solid work mate. Hope this helps!

Thanks to you're long response dude :3 yeah, so it is meant to be very similar to highscore. The chords and melodies are different, but I can see why you would think it's bad. Thanks for your feedback mate!! <3
I haven't heard those people you were inspired by but I love the dubstep feel of it. One of your best songs full stop! Keep it up, my dude! ;)
