Hello! Heared you wanted a review on this - so here we go.
Even i dont know much about electro / trance and dance this piece feels very well done. It has got a good structure, the effects and 8bit elements fit in very well. Also the piece never got boring - good and entertaining. The bass and high synth helped to use the whole sound spectrum - which most artists forget quite often.
The only thing which i would change is the ending which could have been more elaborate, but i know how hard it is to find a good and interesting ending.
Overall great piece. Keep it up!
5/5

You mean the audio underdog contest? I didn't make it into the NGADM. Good luck!
I like the frantic synth bass at the beginning, and the quirky lead at :15. I think you needed a more effective transition at :15, though, even if it was a simple crash. I like the climactic nature of it and the melodies. You have a great sense of harmony. I loved the transition at 1:25. I think this piece has a great sense of direction to it, and it definitely keeps my attention throughout. That said, I think you had some slight balance issues. For example, the bass at around 1:30 and onward was a little too loud. Also, you have some really high-pitched and harsh tones in there later on which could've been compressed more, at the very least. Otherwise, it's an extremely amusing, energetic, and fun piece. The title seems fitting. I think you needed another crash at 3:06 though to aid in that transition. The ending was good, and it doesn't even make a bad loop! Great work, Larrynachos! I think you could potentially go very far in this competition. ;D
9/10
