The Dream of a Robot

EDIT: Thanks a lot for the front page feature :D!

Wohoo!
Happy Robot Day 2015, guys!!! :D

I present to you, "The Dream of a Robot" :)
I like to imagine that every lead is the voice of a robot, even though they don't all sound like robots (though some do :p).
The title is referring to a robot having a dream, not a human dreaming of a robot, but all interpretations are okay :3
I decided to not really have any major breakdowns in the track, as it's so short, so it's pretty much full power most of the way XD

As for genre, I put it under experimental. I guess this could be video game music or some other of the electronic genres, but I don't really know :/

I've worked unusually hard on this track, to make it as awesome as possible. Electronic music is far from my strongest genre, especially as it involves a lot of mixing and such (as most genres do...)

Luckily, johnfn made a guide to mixing a couple of months ago, which is what originally sparked my idea of trying out such a track as this, while simultaneously improving my mixing skills. I also tried to mimic his style a bit in this track. He claims my chord choices are usually pretty similar to his, so I figured I should try to make an entire track that's somewhat similar to his style, to really see if it's true! He would probably have used a slower tempo though, but who knows?

My mixing is of course far inferior, but I am really happy with the results nonetheless, as I'm clearly improving :D (I may have borrowed part of johnfn's melodies at points too, subconsciously).

Finally, I decided to use TripleThreeTwo's Robot Day art piece as cover art, check it out:

Once again, Happy Robot Day 2015, and to those of you who are also participating, good luck and have fun!

P.S. All the instruments used are free, though some of them aren't really available anymore ;)

Nice mix

This was a nice mix of different things going on, but seems to all come together in a beautiful piece and some solid sound here, so keep up the decent work and hope to find more gems among your tunes. for me this was a great gem found in a haystack
