This is a new rendition of my song "Bearskin". I wasn't trying to make it better or worse, but merely interpreting my music in a different way. Leave comments, download, and play this shit on your Playas!

WHAT THE!!!

DUDE, You totally blew the old project out of the water with this one!!! I cant believe how much more pro it sounds. Everything sounds more full, more panned, more everything!!!! Awesome job Bro!!!

Of course, I'm expecting this kind of treatment for the other one too now......

Yea, Thanks man! It was fucking hard, because I didn't have the original score anymore (you know why), so I had to completely rewrite the whole damn thing. This thing took about a week of coffee drinking, listening, and music theory recollection to bring back to life. At least now I have my own official copy of the score....

Fairly Sexy, Good Sir.

I love your tunes because you keep the emphasis on melody and structure rather than a heavy beat and a repetitive bassline. It's really refreshing to listen to songs like this, and it fills my heart with hope for the future of the Audio Portal.

The main melody that appears throughout the song is interesting and awesome enough to have me listen to the song a few more times than I thought I was going to. I liked your choice of synths and instrumentation, pretty much everything here is sexytastic.

I'm only giving you a 9 because I felt like the end buildup was really great, but there was no payoff afterwards. The spiraling ending decrescendo was not enough for the epic runway you gave this song, man. I was hoping for a comeback final chorus with an intricate counter-melody or maybe just a little tingy synth playing a harmony part over it... You can't just leave me hanging like that! You've gotta make your stuff more than win at simply existing, make it take off into the sky and become something more than just music. It has to become an ideology, a religion, a lifestyle... something people can look back to in 20 years and think "I'm glad I lost my virginity to this song.".

Come on, give me a big KA BLAM MOTHAFUCKUH at the end of this unprecedented journey of sonic intensity.

(And yeah I do realize that 2:08 is your finale section and not everything has to be to my own standards. But I'm doing the goddamned review goddammit, so I'll goddamn do whatever I goddamn please.)

(Also, I will now go check out 'Bearskin I')

Yo Burn7! Thanks my man I'm glad you enjoy my tunes! I got a new one im working on for that big Newgrounds collab CD. It's going to be good. Just working on it around my 'effing college work. You and I need to collab on some heavy shit sometime man! We're reinventing the Portal! Let's bring back the portals dignity! *cough* Excuse me....

Yeah... the first cut of this song was made for a music class project. Sharing it with the class was an interesting moment....hahaha!

LOL! I'm going to make a burn7 edition! I want people to look back 20 years from now and think "I'm glad I lost my virginity to this song."lol! You'll get your big KA BLAM MOTHAFUCKUH!
