I like the rich chords and fun, danceable vibes at the beginning. Those hi-hat patterns are really cool, although I think the kick sounded a bit thin and high-pitched for my tastes. Some of the other drum samples also sounded pretty generic, but everything was mixed well. There was a nice sense of climax into 1:00, and I like the more melodic flair of that section. I like the filtering at 1:47 and the chaotic, jazzy feel of the section thereafter, although at times the texture seemed like it was bordering on dissonance, especially around 1:51. At 2:32, the claps are rather quiet, but I like the thick, synth-heavy texture throughout that section. I think this piece is missing some higher-range frequencies at times, and also may need more structural variety, as the arrangement feels a bit cyclical after a while here. I liked the thinner, more minimal outro at 3:48. I wonder if it would help the piece to have similar content at a bridge or breakdown, just to break up the intensity of these heavy pads a bit. Overall, though, this is a fun piece with some cool rhythmic content and a great club-ish style. Keep at it, EmoshiLorenzo! ^_^

A little bit of a trip up in the beginning. Kinda sounded like some instruments were being played over others or maybe the timing was off by a hair. Kinda fighting for attention. The kick hits a bit too hard but the percussion is really fun. And I like the intro to the melody. There's the melody, I like it too. Sounds influenced by some good RPG style songs but different enough that it is definitely its own song. And it gets dark! That bass is nightmare fuel. This song takes its time and it isn't afraid to take its time establishing itself. The only downfall there is that it gets a tad repetitive but I can dig it.
