Trying to push my boundaries again with this one, sort of clashing a few mixed sounds. Let me know if you think it works! Also, when voting, keep in mind that you're in the "New Wave" genre. If its a style of music that you will never like, you're better off not voting for any of us!

And thank you so much for taking the time to listen to this song. If you like it, please check out my other works!

LOL

The name of the song is "Before Christmas" yet it was submitted one day AFTER Christmas. I thought that was kind of funny. But anyway, very nice song, just like all of your others. I'm really into techno and heavy bass songs but your new wave stuff is awesome! Keep up the fantastic work.

haha, the name of this song is supposed to be "Sadface before christmas" but I did :( instead. I actually composed this song on christmas day! There wasn't really all that much bass in this one! There was the drum beat, then one of the scratch patterns I used was sort of a bassy one. I feel like the two areas i need to grow the most are bass and drums.

O_o

Considering i never really took the time to listen to new wave.... this is actually cool. :D Can definately get down to this. I'll keep this, and heres a few stars and a rating for chu! Laterz. =p

merlin responds:

Thanks! This song was pretty interesting to make. Not like any of my other stuff. Glad to have opened your ears to something new! Stick around, great things happen in new wave!

Heard it, loved it, downed it, faved it, and voted on it. Keep em coming.

merlin responds:

Can do, Agent7x... Can do. You really should check out Land Locked (Pulse Remix) Definitely a drastic feel change compared to this song, but I think you'd like it even more! Thanks for the votes, the review, and the love. I hope to see you stick around!

Regards,
Merlin

Catchy.

I love all of your work. I hope that more is to come.
I like how this piece is almost...mysterious. I love the feel of it.
Makes me want to go for a walk under an autumn starry sky. <3

merlin responds:

I love all of you, too! I wont stop composing until the day I die! It's getting hard to keep up with all the comments lately, just let me know if I missed one! This song was pretty fun to make, and I didn't take it too seriously. I think I spent like 3 hours on it on Christmas, and decided to post it up. Thanks for all the love! Keep on shining.

ah..

im not really into new wave, but i try to review and vote objectively, as one should.

you do have a build-up, a climax (weak though, but its there), interesting melody-streams, and nice use of harmonics..

not my style, again, but i value your effort

merlin responds:

Thanks for your input! I'm glad to see you're an honest person who tries to expand your knowledge. Thanks for branching out there, and listening to my song.
