EDIT: Be sure to check out 'Xenophobic' in the new iOS game 'Truck Challenge'! :D

This song originated from one of my earlier songs, 'UFO V.2', which hasn't been uploaded to Newgrounds.

I'm pretty happy with the outcome so far, though I would like to do some more work on this one. Why don't you let me know what you think! :)

(Wasn't sure if I should post it under the Video Game genre or not....thoughts?)

EDIT: Removed incorrect chords and patterns at various points in the song. Edited the voice effect towards the end of the song so it sounds more profound and clear.

It's pretty neat actually,

The beginning arp is a good way to start the song for sure. Perhaps try applying a filter or stronger filter to it to give it some variance.

1:20 - The synth popping in now and again adds further flavour to the piece. Very well written.

1:34 - The completes the song in my opinion. It definitely gives it the video game feel. However, at 1:47, the notes are severely out of tune. They're out of tune again at 2:07. And at progressively different parts of the song as well. Whatever notes being used at those times either aren't apart of the scale youre writing in, or they're chorded wrong.

Overall - pretty decent track :) Just gotta work out a few kinks here and there and you'll be good to go. I can definitely picture this in some type of arcade game!

First off I would like to say, thank you for the review. :)

I really appreciate it when I get important feedback like this. Listening to 1:47 now makes me cringe a little, I'm really glad you pointed that out. I must have had my head in the clouds when I recorded those notes. :P I think part of it came from the fact that I was trying to allow room for an upper octave there, and well, the result was this.

Once again, thanks for the comments, I'll improve the song and hopefully it will turn out better than the original.
