Gah why did this have to be neglected so long

It's like so neat. I really like it. It's deep and kind of calming and nicely fast-paced at once. Good job and keep on.

It's neat.

I kind of expected some kind of fast, climactic melody to spring out of nowhere, but it never came. That's okay, this is pretty cool nonetheless.

YES THIS IS PERFECT

So I was looking for a song to use in a battle engine test for a game I'm making. I also needed some inspiration for what the battle would actually be. This fits the bill perfectly. EXCELLENT work. I wish I could make songs as coolio as this.

Not quite perfect

Overall the song was good, but I still am not sure if I like it as much as some of your other works. It felt a bit cluttered in some parts, like there was too much happening at once. The pause around 1:15 wasn't that great and I've learned that usually pauses in the middle of songs are not so great. (perhaps this makes me a hypocrite since I'm guilty of this but I digress.) Also, distinguishing a melody from the rest of the song would, in my opinion, help things improve. Maybe I'm sounding a bit negative... don't get me wrong, overall good song, just pointing out what I think should change here.

NickPerrin responds:

Definitely fair critique.
I should say, though, that this music differs a lot from my other work on purpose. There is supposed to be an often overwhelming quantity of musical information thrown at the listener that is all revelead in many listens. Or, clearer but overstated musical phrases... just all-out sensory assault haha.
Thanks for the review!

Heck yes!

This review cannot match the one below me but I'll try to be helpful.

I'd say it's a pretty neat song. Some of the percussion seems a bit... uh, I don't know how to put it. Like it goes over the maximum volume allowed, that kind of effect. The tune was lively and it didn't get old. I actually think this could serve as two different songs. Like, the first slower bit could be broken off into one song and the faster part could be another. And they'd go side-by-side probably. Am I making sense here?

Alturos responds:

Actually yes. As I was going over it, I started to feel like it might make sense to split them, seems I wasn't the only one who thought so. I think I may just look into splitting them up while addressing the issues mentioned here.

Thanks a ton for the feedback!

We have a winner!

This song is excellent. It flows well, I love the instruments, the atmosphere is great, everything fits together well. Great work, keep on tranglin'!

Not bad

It's pretty good. Though it feels like you may want to reconsider your choice in instruments, there's some potential here.

Computercrashx responds:

well i'm sure it wouldn't sound quite so surreal if I changed the stuff but i'll take it into consideration, thanks!

It's dazzle-mazing!

What can I say? I really liked it. Nice flow to it. I didn't especially like that random gap around 0:42. That kind of thing works with some songs, but I guess I just didn't really like it here. The instrument that kicked in around 56 seconds was neat. Wacky, but worked with the song, it did. Nice work then!

Hey hey guess what it is in fact crafty

I've worked with an 8-bit tracker before (Famitracker, anyone?) and I've never been able to produce anything this neat. The tracks all complement each other well, and it has that daringly adventurous tone you'd expect from old pixelmesses. Excellent work, Dr. Crafty!

Not bad

It's pretty neato. I like the instrument choice and stuff. However, it just doesn't feel... heavy enough. And the ending felt a bit weak. All in all though, good song, keep it up.

Now, I'm floating three meters off the ground, upside down, in some abandoned warehouse on the moon. I'm very uncertain about what kind of help I should ask for in the first place, but if you think you could lend a hand somehow, I'd be very appreciative.

I... don't do much.
