i love this

Kinda nostalgic for me, and pretty dang vibey. Gets my seal of approval!

Pretty 13/8 measure. One, two, three, one, two, three one, two, three one, two, three, FOUR YES. UNF, I LOVE THAT EXTRA PULSE IN THE SWING. Face melt.

Loved that cute little synth lead. Hell, all the synth patches are classic video game. It all comes together really well. Bass was tight. Drums are tight but I think the beat could be a little fiercer with more drum mods and effects. Pitch bent 32nd note snare drum fills. A tamb and shaker rhythm might help brighten the space a little. You can pan them in opposite directions and activate some more of the stereo field.

I'd have added extra an bass kick and snare drum layer. You can get really diverse IDM rhythms and textures with drum layers that emphasize one another and can take turns sharing the spot-light. A nice bass kick with sub freqs can have moments where it sustains to emphasize a relationship with the bass melody. I think a fidelity unit could push the low frequencies on that slappy bass synth some more. I paid stupid money on these headphones and am hungry for moar sub sonic textures :D

Nice, I can imagine hearing this in an old video game. Not really my style of music, but well put together, nice piece.
