Interesting effects and good melodies

For a video game genre song, this is really good, by the effects used, the kind of guitar and percussion and by the additional generic sounds. The eletric guitar sound was pretty cool and well designed, I mean it's really "mechanical" by the sound from this and it gives the way to think that is a place during the game with more impact or some speed-running, so you did great on the guitar rythim, one thing I don't liked too much is the obssessive percussion, it's so repetitive, maybe you could change it in some times for other rythim, maybe on more slow, other more faster. I also liked a lot the bell effects next to the end of the song, also the flute sounding, did more to sound like a video game song, it remembers me a lot, that classical games, you did a nice job on it. By 02:36 was a really cool transition where several sounds go in one, like something from keyboard, guitar, flute and the percussion, then comes the bell sounds, it was awesome, but the transitions from this song are not so well structered also for the melodies, but I found they more well placed than the transitions, you should better on this. Now for the topics:

{NAME}
"Suicide From", this represents like a suicidal act for the player, like as I said, a speed running for win the level, or maybe challenging a boss, or something really hard, this title is good, but would be better have a different name, but would be just a little better if be "From Suicide", or maybe "Coming to Suicide", then would be a lot more like something more "violent", I mean, showing that is something really hard or a problem.

{CONCEPT}
The concept from this song is really well constructed, like the first seconds of it, would be like the beginning from the gameplay at the level and during the intro of 00:18, you start to find the enemies on your way and more to 00:25, you already can noticed more enemies coming in your way, so turns a lot more with action, the bell during 01:00, represents a good entry for showing that the player is defeating everyone in your way and for 01:20, is like the player walking for some time and then find more enemies. For 02:10, should show some enemies that are more hard to defeat, but in 02:36, he can defeat them, but find more enemies coming through his way, and then he comes for the last part at 03:00, where he find a boss, and the bells does for it, something really challenging and for the music going more faster on 03:15, it seems like the player jumping through the boss, or something and giving the last attack to the enemy and defeating it, and when the music silence at 03:45, we can notice he finishing the level.

{PERCUSSION}
The percussion of this was good, but was a bit repetitive, giving a boring company for the other instruments, but they can show a lot of going on gameplay, like in 01:05, the percussion with the company of the guitar does it looks like that is more fast, so we can think about a more challenging part, so you did a nice job on this, but stills you change these repetitive drum sounds. You could add in some parts, a strong drum beating, that would be perfect in the final seconds from the song with the bell FX, then we can see like a great transition for show the player challenging the boss.

{FOCUS}
The focus of it, in my opnion, was more for the gameplay events, as I said on Concept topic, you can see gameplay intro, first strikes, first waves of enemies, score running, walking, hard enemies and boss, and a great focus was for the guitar to his volume, for the parts where it have more balance or for when like 02:12 that is more for a great "jump" melody. Also the speed-lenght for the sounds was another take of focus, that did it sound like the player running, so you did a nice work on the events produced by the velocity and occupation of the sound.

{OVERALL}
Song was excellent for a video game song. The flute with guitar did it remember me the classics, so this was good. The percussion was interesting, but I think you should remove some repetitive parts, the "concept" was good.

I understand what your saying definately. As im listening to this song I feel there could have been more transitions in the beat definately. More breakdowns or just an overall beat change. I do feel the song could have had more ballance and I will work on that in the future. I think If I were more patient I could have fixed alot of these things but hey.

I should have definately changed up with a change in melody too. I think I could have impacted the song alot more with a more engaging one.

I would definately like to thank you on the well thought feedback. I feel that you did more than what I expected in feedback and I feel that the review counsel should be glad that they have you in the club. Once again, thanks friend.

Another One,

Amazing.
