I love the use of the piano that comes in around the minute mark. (You know how I feel about piano.)

After waiting from the buildup for the beat, you did not disappoint. Have you ever listened to William Orbit? This reminds me of a modern "Water From a Vineleaf". Very beat-heavy, a driving synth, but not overpowering. Takes you up into a Tron universe, and offers a relaxing dip back towards reality.

The only critique I have would be to soften the voice a little bit, make it somewhat more blended into the background. It caught me off guard at first. :)

Anyhoo, I downloaded. Gonna listen to this while I go for a run. Makes me think I'm in the Matrix. Good work!

I really like piano. Will probably be using it more if I get further into NGADM :p

Wow, Water From a Vineleaf sounds very similar to my song, down to the repetitive electronic melody with 7ths and spoken word female vocals! It's also totally awesome. I really love songs with the groovy bass guitar :D

I think you're right about the vocal, so I turned it down just a tad when it comes in. Thanks for the review!

Dude, I know you say that you had no inspiration, but I hear plenty of creative riffs in here. I think with a little mixing and some timing revamps, it would be a great song to listen to. You have a good sense of chord progression going on.

Fleshbag responds:

Thanks :) Yeah, the mix sucks and my playing is half assed, quarter of an ass actually. Anyway, that guy Mystek should win even if he doesn't make a song :D

Perfection. Ear-gasm.

Bosa responds:

It's hard to beat your music, however. You're pro.

Go, go, go. Could use a little more bass imho, but I love how fuckin' wonky this is.

Quarl responds:

I realized the bass was a little weak when I uploaded it to soundcloud and saw that wave form. I've found that when I think the bass is too much, that means I need more bass.

Yes, love Logic Pro. It's what I use too. This is definitely not bad for your first time. I'd say it probably gets a little repetitive around the minute line, and my mind keeps waiting for a melody. THEN that little riff at 1:47. I wanted that to continue, man! :P
Anyhow. Good stuff. :)

Aw man. SO relaxing. Love it. Sounds like a possible atmosphere for Borderlands or Fallout.

ForgottenDawn responds:

Good games, glad you enjoyed the track. :)

Loading screen for Bioshock, please and thank you.

5/5. Great work.

You must have played Fable 2. YOU MUST HAVE. This is very reminiscent of the soundtrack - playful, warm, mysterious. Enjoyed it.

WingoWinston responds:

A fun fact, I only have a PC so I've only played Fable LC and Fable 3. Fable 2 was not released for PC so I've never played it. But I do agree. A lot of the songs in Fable are rather cheery with woodwinds and a glockenspiel. Russel Shaw has definitely had a large influence on my music.

Thanks for the review!

Alright, this might just be my new jam. Solid drums, great energy, fantastic bass, and god-damned great mixing. 5/5

Oakwood responds:

Cool man, thanks! :)

This piece has a LOT of potential. Listening to the tonal atmospheres you have going on, it reminds me a little of something that might come out of a Halo battle scene, with the choral samples. The strings could have used a bit of temperament - they are a little harsher in some areas than I would expect, and they don't have much of a varying volume. Still, good choice on the melodies and the different styles within the song. I would mess around with the velocity on the strings.
Truly, I enjoyed it, overall, and it would be a great addition to any tense scenario. Looking forward to listen to your other music. ^__^

IglicaV responds:

Oh yes, I have to agree, because I think the same thing when I listen to this song. I couldn't polish it, because my hard drive broke, but I wasn't sure if I'll make it to the Newgrounds Audio Deathmatch. Probably you'll like my new song, that I'll publish as soon as I will be able to finish it : ) Thank you very much for your review!

I'm headphoamz. Have at you!
