Wasn't quite sure what to think about this after the first few listens. It's definitely unique, I cannot accuse you of doing something generic. But in saying that, this does need a lot of work...it takes a lot of good instrument choices and EQing to make something odd land in the 'good' side of odd, as in, quirky, fun, or unsettling and deliberately so. I think this just for a few reasons falls on the less desireable side of odd, in that I'm left really wondering what this really is...

The texture feels relatively sparse throughout, and I think something like that could be remedied easily with just a few more warm pad sounds just to flesh the sound out a little more, and just make the vocal sounds feel a little less biting than they do. The vocals themselves could have used a second look, just because they didn't really seem to fit with what else was going on and especially in the introduction, just felt a little too messy. I think if you revised the introduction without the vocals it'd improve the piece quite a bit. As some other people have said, the drums in this are really, really well done. So if you just changed the synths and worked on the transitions a little more, this could be really good. The drums bring this up, the transitions are probably the main thing bringing this down. The drum beat's a really solid starting point, so I think this does have potential to be a lot more than it is here.

Thanks for the review and suggestions man, I appreciate it.

Strange...

I have to admit... The beat is very strange, but is completely great! It's groovy, and nice to listen, but sometimes, it's very creepy, the back drums are nice, and the voices are awesome, too...

The bad thing is that the song is too short, it seems that it doesn't have a start and an end, it just confused me! The beggining was very nice, and i liked how you made the second beat, it's very creative...

I liked the way you build the music, it's nice to listen, because the drums are kind of relaxing, so, the back beat is really cool mixed w/ the drums...

Anyways, I liked the music, but you have more to show, I know it, the lenght is still very short, you can do better...

Thanks for your review dude.

Hm,,,

This is one heck of a wierd song. The vocals at the beginning sucked, im sorry to say, they just sounded like random words coming from random directions with no order whatsoever. They also made no sense.

The next part got slightly better with the addition of some new instruments and some variety on the drums. But it still needs more work as that annoying whisper got creepy and started to bother me after a few secs.

The drums were the real highlight in this, because they were quite well worked and varied. At least they provided a decent background for the random voices.

The outro sounded really wierd, with a bad transition leading into it to top it all off.

Overall, this most definetely needs more work and a lot more variety. Im sorry but this deserves nothing more than a five.

Strange

A very strange song. The vocals in the beginning sound very funny, but I couldn't make out what they where saying (or if they are supposed to say anything meaningful at all).

The song doesn't seem to go anywhere, though. I think a few more instruments would sound good here, as they would give us something more to listen to.

Also the outro doesn't really fit to the song, in my opinion you should change it.

o.o

I don't know about this one, it just seemed really random and didn't seem to go anywhere, no real structure or general feel.

Vocals sounded a bit random and just stuck in there. . I didn't really hear much of what the speaker was saying. I suppose it was good, but when the synth came in, it just didn't seem to fit to be honest.

Percussion was okay, don't really see much wrong there, maybe consider adding some more percussion to maybe brighten it up? (kind of like the end but but like, less overly reverb'd.

Synth section was okay, but just the same thing over again with nothing added to it gets pretty boring even if the tune is short.

It was okay, and has potential, but there's quite a bit of work to do in my opinion.
