Woah...
You have been getting a lot of fanboys recently.
All I got to say is - stop EQing your stuff way damn high, and lower the sidechain compression shizzle. Just too much compression... lol
Keep at it, F.

Hey! Wasn't trying to EQ my stuff high =).
Agreed i went overboard on the sidechain XD.
Thanks for the awesome review!!
Unfortunate coincidence
The musical content is very nice, a good sample of the genre and of your talent for combining sounds, and I like other works of yours for this reason. But it suffers as a result of a random coincidence.
There's another song "Frost" on NG (http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/list en/385985) that uses many of the same instruments and even some of the same melodic motifs and general structure choices. I've been listening to "Frost" for a year or two now, so it's really familiar to me. The similarities to "Frost" cheapen your new song in my ears. It's unfair, actually, because if the order had been reversed and I heard "Life" before "Frost", I'd feel like the other guy's song was cheapened for being to similar to your work.
The take-home message is this: it's a great composition, but you might want to get experimental with new instruments, sound fonts, and filters. With all the users on NG submitting music, it's hard to remain unique when several people are using the same exact toolboxes.

Thanks for the review!! I listened to the song and havn't found a single
same sound XD. The chord progression is the same but its used in
a million songs. Actually i can name 20 off the top of my head hehe.
I do appreciate the note though =).
Thanks again for the review!
