pipeline punch is so good

I like the spacey pads at the beginning and the vocal samples at :15. The progression is a bit slow-paced at first, but I like the beats at :40 and the loud, crisp mix. The piece could use a bit more harmonic variety and melodic development after a while, and I also thought the transition at 1:20 was rather abrupt. The rhythmic content is especially good at 1:51, but the pads there get a bit lost in the mix. Overall, the atmosphere, drum and vocal samples, danceability, and bouncy mood are my favorite aspects of the piece. The compositional details could use a bit more fleshing out, though, and at times the mix seems rather strained. That said, kudos on a catchy and fun piece, xpastelxbloodx! :)

Nice and surreal. Extra points for NG beat tag hehe.

The switchup at 1:22 is a nice change for variety's sake. I love the insanity at 1:50. Could have possibly used some more variety in where the snare fell, again for variety's sake, but all things considered, you kept those drums nice and wild to make up for it.

Great work. Really enjoyed it. Wish I had more critique.

Thanks for coming out to NGUAC!
