I really enjoyed it.

I think the synths worked well with the retro kinda drum machine kinda like Gary Numan meets Shiribon!, definitely deserving at least four, but then there's the little licks, and runs especially on the bass that defines it as something different and original in the video game genre. That and the border line feedback on the synths definitely make it a 5/9. Seriously enjoyable.

Love & peace.

pheel responds:

I honestly wouldn't have thought a Gary Numan reference would have come up, but I thank you for it :D.
Yeah the synths are a bit strident at times but I liked the effect myself.

Thanks very much for the review :D

Rig!

Everything you do man... the exotic dums, the real urban feel of the effected tracks, just everything. No amount of tributes could express how awesome you are.

Rig responds:

It would sound even better with some guitar in the mix! :D
Thanks for your review, man!

Nice!

Those zero bombers suck! This song has an original style mix which grabs the ear and awesome guitar, if lacking on the drum front.

Lighty158 responds:

I suppose the drums could have been a bit louder... or less synthetic. But I felt they did the job. I'm very glad you liked the guitar work. Not bad for computer-composed, eh? Thanks, again!

Man! You just dont stop rocking!

I mean alternative? And trance? Alternatrance? Trancaternative? Digiternative? No idea. Loving the tremolo/ killswitching though! Back to my room for some more recording thinks I. Just awesome!

Elfire responds:

hehe thanks man, always a pleasure reading your reviews.

Gotta say!

It's life affirming that guys like you post stuff on NGAP. Really sweet 7/8! The exotic scale on the wood wind and the piano was pretty sweet, but what made it for me were the minimalist exotic drums. And the solo! How sweetly hoarse, how gradually dissonant, how beautifully virtuoso can you get? Brilliant!

Love & peace.

sorohanro responds:

hey, thanx
usually some people quit listening after percussion intro :)) glad you like it, probably my best jazz thing on NG.
Petre Scafaru, the saxophone player, you can hear on recordings with "Burnt Sugar Arkestra Chamber" and my album too.

I agree with liquid ooze...

If there has to be a tribute Im glad it's this one, with its many layers of synths and its modest drum beat. Some of the sounds you get!

SRT-M1tch responds:

Thanks for reviewing.

Teach me!

How? Just how? So many layers, so many tasteful effects? just how?!?!? Please, did you find some sacred fountain or something?

Envy responds:

Lol, nope just a lot of time 8D

The vocals really need redoing.

...and the drums aren't so good, but apart from that really very nicec.

amdaviso responds:

you're drums are worse than these akaccock

Interested which one!

This is quite something, but it must be said drums would not go amiss, to give it some more substance.

jontyl responds:

Yeah thanks, I really should have put drums in this, it would have improved it. I might add them and submit this again

It kinda nice!

Your'e band obviously knowwhat theyr'e doing and the songs nice. The only things i would say is that there are some problems with the recording, the quality on this is quite lacking, which is a real pity. That said this was quite enjoyable.

milktoast responds:

Problems with the recording?
Thanks, I'll look into it...
There's one section in the song that is a bit crackly, but due to time restrictions I couldn't really re-record haha

Anyway thanks a lot! I appreciate it

-EDIT- now I look back on it, you're right. Hopefully soon I'll rerecord some parts of the song, and mix it so the sound's all sounding... like sound should sound :p
Thanks again
