Ambient and Dnb with a touch of Glitch?...
...Seriously, why am I not surprised? Lol, still, great song. You have a lot of talent; so much talent that you got me downloading glitch... And man, you've got to be a darn genius to get me to download glitch music...
The piano melodies are excellent. There were many alternate melodies, and they were all so epic. The closer the song got to the end, the better the melodies were. Loved the part at 1:43, it was an awesome break from the overload of glitch effects and drum beats. The only complaint I have is that the piano stuck to the high notes only, which got a little annoying. Add some piano accompaniment in the bass to even it out.
Instruments are great, as usual. Piano wasn't that good quality, but I think this piano would do better in a song like this than a good quality piano would XD. Loved the ambient pads and choirs in the background, they added a lot of background depth to the song and fit perfectly with the heavenly or otherworldy theme you were going for in this song. I'll just complain about that piano sometimes having its notes blurred together a lot, and it was hard to make out if what was playing was a piano or just another sound effect.
Speaking of effects, man, this song is covered in them! The delayed sound effect thing that was a little like a reverse cymbal which appeared first at 0:48 was really cool and made good transitions, and you used so many reverse cymbals and glitch effects. Vocal sample at the beginning was a really creative idea, good job. It fit perfectly with the song without disrupting it.
Transitions are just how the always are in your songs. Purely epic. There were many amazing transitions which made the song flow smoothly throughout, but I think my favourite would be at 1:09. It had a nice glitch effect, and didn't ruin the feel of the song. Another favourite transition of mine was where the drums stopped and left the piano playing on its own at 0:24 before the drums came in. I liked how you introduce the drums right after with that brief glitch effect.
The song is well-built with a brilliant song structure, and the variety was just amazing. So many melodies without making it sound repetitive; I don't see why this didn't make it to the top 5 O_o. Anyway; onto the intro... As I said, vocal sample was a great idea, and I think the only way to improve the intro would be to turn up the volume of the vocal sample at the beginning. After that guy says "Come", it becomes difficult to make out the "The Afterlife Awaits You", so by turning it up you'll be able to hear what's being said more clearly. As for the ending, I'm not much of a fan of arpeggio-based endings, but I must say, this turned out perfectly. The slight ritardando you did was awesome too. Hm, sorry for the long paragraph :\.
The drums... well, the drums... TBH, I couldn't make out when there was a drum playing and when there was a glitch effect playing, since they were mixed so well together :P. Still, they fit very well with the song (it's still a mystery how you manage to get ambient sound so awesome with DnB) and they had good samples. I liked how in some calmer parts you did a softer drum beat, other than just doing something bland like a kick every beat. The drums, like the melodies, were extremely varied as well, so they never got boring to listen to.
I can tell why it's one of your best songs. So much variety, so many effects, so many catchy melodies, so much awesomeness, you sure have a talent at producing. My only complaint is that piano being too high pitched, so it needs accompaniment in the bass to even it out, and that the piano's notes were blurred together quite a lot which I think would be better if you increase their velocity and maybe take away a little bit of reverb that was put on them. Other than those two very small defects, I can't find anything at all wrong with this excellent submission. Keep up the great work, and I hope you enjoyed one of my best reviews (my best review for your best song XD).
