Honestly, you're getting better at this...
You're actually making glitch so good you're getting me to download it XD. Seriously, awesome job on this one; it sounds great. I've added you to my favourite artists list just because you make glitch awesomely enough for non-glitch fans such as I to download them :D.
You had the first half of the song consisting completely out of ambient and drums, so I guess there wasn't much of a melody there. The melody in the second half was really awesome and catchy though, good job on it. Maybe the first half could have a few high bells or some plucked instrument or something; not just ambient notes, since although in the first half the drums are obviously the main attraction, it'd be cool to have a little bit more of a melody along with the ambient pads. Still, not too much of a problem since the drums are what keep this track sounding unexpected and not boring, so melodies aren't that important.
The ambient pad you used was great, I wish I had ambient samples like that :(. The piano-like instrument after sounded good, I think it could do a little better if it had some delay to it, or at least a little more reverb. Other than that, I can't complain with the instruments. Lol, you're right, I think this is one of the first songs if not the first that I heard from you which doesn't incorporate an actual piano sample XD.
The transitions are really awesome, and the glitch effects you did in some transitions were very well executed. Just one problem. At 0:46 you did a really awesome transition, but 0:49, IMO was a little too anti-climatic if you get what I mean. What I'm trying to say is, at 0:49 I expected the song to reach a huge climax after hearing the epic transition right before it, but instead it continued with some glitch drums. Maybe over there you could introduce that fast-paced melody I was talking about along with some crash cymbal or something. 1:11 was an awesome transition though.
The song's structure is cluttered and all over the place, but I guess that's what I get from listening to glitch ^^. The variety is extraordinary, but it's those drums which kept the song from becoming repetitive and boring. You managed to vary them without them getting too random, which I quite liked. Intro was great; I liked that you started it with a reverse cymbal and then you went straight on to the beat and ambient pads, it sort of fits with the name for some strange reason. As for the ending, I rather liked it (and trust me, very few song endings leave me impressed :P). The last note had a little effect to it which sounded cool, and although the piano-like instrument did cut off a little abruptly, the ending was great. I also enjoyed that little sound effect you did at 2:19.
Oh wow, those drums... I can't believe you, or anyone for that matter, would ever have the patience to make drums as good as that. It must've taken you ages O.o. There were glitch effects all over the place, and the drums had a lot of variety. There was practically a new beat almost every bar. It was also interesting that in some parts you stuck with a clean beat and in other parts, it went all over the place with a glitchy and crazy beat. It added even more variety to the drums. Oh, and 0:16-0:24 had such crazy drums. I loved that part :D. You also put a lot of different effects and stutters on the drums, especially at 0:49-1:11. It was practically covered with effects. I also liked that at times you had a crazy beat and other times the beat was softer, for example 1:57. The drums were also the right loudness, they did sometimes dominate the melodies, but that's because they're the main attraction of the song, so no problem there.
Another glitch track from you (I'm still waiting for that Jazz song :P). I believe you're the best at glitch in the whole site, at least from the authors that I know of anyway. Really good job on this, it's one of the craziest songs I've heard in a big while XP. You also got me to download glitch again... (seriously, how do you DO that?) so great job! Keep up the great work!
