I like the catchy synth riff at the beginning and the gritty bass in the background at :20. The harsh drop at :28 was unexpected, but I think works well with the frantic synths and descending piano line. The high-pitched synth riff that plays every 2 bars until :48 sounds a tad jarring in my headphones - it might be worth it to take off some of the treble in the EQ and smooth it over with some wet reverb. That said, I’m enjoying the melodies at :47 and the busy texture later on. The lead synth and some of the drum samples are a tad cliche, but overall I’m impressed with the sound design here. Also docking you on originality a bit was the chord progression. That said, the mix stays intact surprisingly well given how hectic the texture is for most of this piece, and overall I’m just impressed you made this in 6 hours. There are a lot of moving parts to this piece that help keep me engaged. I could’ve asked for a bit more variation between the first and second drop, and also more of a proper outro, but overall this piece has a decent amount of variety and a lot of fun compositional details. My favorite element of the piece was probably the instrumentation, actually, with the production a close second. Keep up the good work, MetaHumanBoi! All of my complaints are minor. :)

haha that sure is a lot of undertale sounds wowee. i found this incredibly irritating to listen to mostly, the sections where it's constantly doing that (first drop & ending) would be a lot less annoying if the sounds were in the background. pushing the drums a bit harder is a great angle when remixing this song but the kick you're using doesn't punch hard enough imo. generally the supersaw leads are a little too loud and aren't providing enough room for the rhythmic elements to push the energy through. cute idea to use sans as an offbeat donk kinda thing. didn't enjoy this very much apart from the mid section but i appreciate the effort.
