Reminds you of RaidenX? Wasn't that a top/down 2D shooting game? Or am I think about the wrong game? D: Anyhow, Thank you for the review and I really do hope that I did it justice, I worked long enough on it anyhow XD.
Thanks again

I love it!
Seriously, after seeing all the 7's and 8's, I thought this wasn't that great, but honestly, this really rocks, IMO. A few problems here and there, but it shows that you worked really hard on it. Since it's such a long song, I'll review while I'm listening to it:
I'm hearing a great intro, with good drums in the background. I loved the drum roll at around 0:09, it started the song up very epic-ly-ish....
I'm at 0:12, drums have gotten too loud, with the main melody a slight bit too blurry and hard to keep track of. You may want to fix that with a little mastering. Other than that, 0:12 onwards was superb.
0:24, piano came in a little suddenly, but it's very catchy. At 0:37 there was an awesomely catchy melody. I guess you didn't make it yourself since this is a remix, but it fits very well with the insrument you're using for it. Soft but fast-paced drums in the background were a nice touch, and there was another great drum roll.
1:00, OMG EPIC TRANSITION. Amazing orchestra hits, they were just so epic... From then on a little anti-climatic, but the more orchestra hits at 1:14, with the awesome drum roll in the background made up for it, definitely.
I'm now at 1:15, I suppose this is the chorus, because it sounds like it. Catchy drum beat in the background, and the strings really gave an epic atmosphere.
1:40, a nice alternate melody, and a break from the drums. Good idea adding it there, and purely outstanding job in how you introduced the drums again. From then on, melody was decent, and the drums in the background were varied and awesome.
Now at 2:17, good drum roll before that, and I liked the piano in the background over here.
2:30. Seriously, adding that melody with the piano was genius. Great job, this part is my favourite part so far. Till 3:19, it played some nice melodies and drums as usual.
3:19 - Scratch what I said before, THIS is my favourite part. Very good rythm change with the piano, and it was really catchy. When the strings came in, I think you should've reduced the amount of crash cymbals you used there, but other than that it was brilliant.
4:21, this was a brilliant piano part. Epic job. Expecting the song to get calmer for another break from the drums again...
4:34 : Man, you read my mind O_o... Good drum roll as usual, but at 4:52, the strings stop suddenly... I don't know if that was intentional or not, but I'd rather that there was strings over there.
I'm at 4:58, and hearing an extremely awesome drum transition. Great job. I was expecting the melody at 1:15 to play again somewhere over here, but it's not really such a big problem, since the melody you used was great anyway.
5:26, oh, never mind, that melody repeated here instead :P.
Then from 5:51 till 6:16 was just a repetition from a part earlier in the song, so I already commented about it.
6:16, drums get calmer, then more action packed. That was a nice touch to the song.
6:41 - end: Seriously, I don't know why you added this part. The ending sound perfect from 6:39, so I think you should took that part away.
Anyway, here's a little summary:
I really enjoyed this song. Drums were my favourite part in this, since I usually enjoy extremely varied drums in songs. They had good samples too. The only real defects I can point out over here are the ending (take away from 6:41 onwards) and the fact that the song's notes get blurred together quite a lot and it's hard to keep track, plus the drums at times can get too loud (fix it with some simple mastering).
Other than those two little defects, I enjoyed the song immensly, since it had a lot of variety without getting random, transitions were perfect, especially the drum rolls, instuments fit well with the melodies, and in general you chose an excellent song to remix. Sorry for the ultra long review, but I guess I warned you in the PM (Hehe, lets see you reply to *this* without skipping the character limit XD). Overall, excellent job, keep up the awesome work!

Are you serious? I never answered this one...well wtf. Alright going to have to get around to it then.
Yeah
Reminded me of Raiden too =D
Cosmos8942 responds:
o.o Heh, guess this just sounds like something I have no idea on XD. Ah well, what can a person do? Oh, and arn't the zeroer's cute? XD

Great concept.
The drums seem to be every where. I'd say EQ this a bit more (some of the instruments are way to loud man and it takes away from the song. The drums especually). Its got some great qualities and i'd love to hear you pull them out to the fullest extent. Keep it up for sure!

Cosmos8942 responds:
The drums are everywhere...but that is mostly due to the fact that the cymbals pop up in bad areas alot. I don't know why I didn't bother going in and cleaning that up...but I still have the original file so maybe I will do just that.
But yes, this song does have its share of problems but I did it as more of a experiment to see what I could do if I pushed myself just a little farther then normal. All in all I would say I didn't do too bad considering I normally lean towards the slower pieces.
Thanks for yet another review my friend,

Very nice, but...
I have one complaint on this... the balance between the melody, and drums were not that good. Not offence the drums were just a little over-powering.
Cosmos8942 responds:
Yeah, I made this using high quality earpieces and did not realize that the drums were overpowered till I exported to a different format to listen to it within other sound equipment etc etc. Strangely lost the data, but I simply love this song too much..mm...gotta balance school and all that...fk I need to get back into composing lol.
Alright, lets see what happens in the immediate future.
