A.I.M Judging Review
---------------------------------
The cyberpunk style fits very well with the art. Felt like the first 40 second were a bit plain and could have been a bit varied. The song overall is great. Though as this is a 4 minute long track and there a lot of time is only one chord playing, I wish that you would have changed it up a bit in the middle. I didn't really feel like there was that much of a problem with the electronic kick on my end, though my headphones are frequency neutral, so it could be that it starts becoming a problem in headphones that boost the low-end.
I agree with RF that the bass plucks are a tiny bit too loud in the intro.
The mixing is fairly decent, though that cyberpunk synth(one at the begininning) has some bad frequencies that are a bit painful to listen to at time, especially in the hi-end. The sound design in general is quite good.
Arrangement: 4/5
Sound Desig: 5/5
Mixing: 4/5
Art Relevance: 5/5
Overall: 4.5/5
I feel the bass plucks are a hair too loud and the opening synth isn't quite loud enough, but it's not by much. This is an interesting change, interesting to see an artpiece inspired by a song, inspiring another song. This reminds me of a space game I played when I was younger (at least I think it was a space game) gives that similar vibe. Real nice progression. I feel the electronic kick hits just a little too hard and overpowers the rest of the levels starting at around 1:31, with the two "duh dum" hits. The progression is nice, and has some nice variation.
This gives the vibe of exploration. I could say it fits the picture well. Definitely cyberpunk. Feels a bit of a mix between old and new. The vibe though is a bit of the same throughout the song, it would've been nice to see something a little more different like a key change or so, but overall it's a nice piece.
Please contact me if you would like to use this in a project. We can discuss the details.
