This song competed in the rookie division of Music Contest 6, where it ranked in block 8. |
Judge: Mccuen ,Steve Two songs it one? First part didn't do it for me. Seemed to be lacking something. The second part - if you listen to the song you'll now where the break that I'm talking about it. |
Judge: Nadeau ,Eric I didn't like your drums and they're repeated all over the first part. So I didn't really like that part. I think those drums were inappropriate for the rest of the music. Changing the drums should really improve your module. Some kind of transition between the two parts would have been appreciated. The second part was much more enjoyable, except for the bass which changes only once per pattern (and used in the same way in the first part). |
Judge: Epp ,Jonathan 1st section is pretty long and repetitive, while the 2nd section could have been expanded on more. Good use of volume slides on the chords. I really don't like the transition (or lack thereof) between the 2 sections. It needs to do more than just fade the first part out and come in with the second part a couple of seconds later. There never seems to be any melody in the song. While there are a couple of nice ideas here, the piece just doesn't go anywhere. |
Judge: JiménezChapresto ,Eduardo A bad song that sounds disordered, and till pattern 31, it is very poor and very repetitive. A tune with no sense. The only 2 things that lift up the song are the sample quality and the technique. |
Judge: Jonsson ,Agust Simply dull. The drumline (heck, everything really) badly needs more work, it's too repetitive as it is, and too simple. And the rest of the track simply sends me on a highway to zzzville. Just before I fell asleep it changed pace and.. well, it didn't get much better. Don't quit your dayjob. |
Judge: Landekic ,Bojan From the opening I was expecting a classical piece, something cleaner and less of what it was. Yet when the song finally "started" it was just as it was at the beginning. I liked this song for a reason - it kept my attention to it's finish. The millitary-style snare is really terrific and goes well with the overall feel of the song, however it got quite annoying after hearing it repeat throughout the whole song. This, in general, was the only problem I found with the song. VERY repetative, as if copy and paste were the primary tools of the tracker, and not it's effects, and channels. What's more, this song was written in the IT format, and none of IT's features, such as NNAs and so forth had been utilized. The song was written in "sample" mode as opposed to the instruments mode, so you couldn't really use NNAs, but if it had been in an "instruments" mode, maybe less physical channels would've been used, and the song's overall quailty would have increased. One thing I did find quite unusual is the literal GAP in music at Order 31, pattern 12 is an empty pattern. This makes the transition, well, quite non-existant. I like the part following it though, a lot more than the first "half" of the song. For 5 samples, which were extremly small and of surprising good quality, this is a very well written song. It is very raw, like something I could leave on in the background!! |
