One thing I really can't say about this tune... it isn't very original. I gave this tune 45 mostly because the beginning is so unoriginal and is alike many tunes I heard so far. Tunes with the same kind of samples and annoying background voice that goes again and again and again with a trance bit... The only point where he's quite original is order 9-12, and there also, too many times repeated. If it was original in it's rythm or chords\harmony it could have been much much better. The tune is developed in order 23 - for something more special, but there the technique is less good , and this part isn't well tracked. The end is funny, but too fast. Generally - Try being more creative, doing something no one ever did... Vel.

Average rookie techno tune. Mildy enjoyable for a while, but then there are some not so good breaks. Tbe technique is a bit over average rookie standard, but its low originality and itīs not overly exciting to listen to. The samples are all right and doesnīt stand out in either direction. No great musical ideas, but no really bad ones either.

'Mnemo' had a very different sound from most of the others I had judged. The main reason was the use of heavy sytnths, and more industrial sounds, rather than the realistic instruments used on the mainstream. However, it didn't detract from the song- in fact, it was a welcome addition. The samples used were clear, high quality, and any distrotion was intentional. It was obvious that a lot of work went into making it sound like a lot of industrial songs today. However, one of the best parts of this song was the atmosphere. This was just the only song that I could ever imagine playing during a multiplayer game of 'Descent II'. It just had that sort of feeling to it. Two things really dissapointed me, though. First, there was very little panning. Sample 7, about halfway through the song, would have been a perfect time to use a tone float- type effect, but it just stayed in the center. What panning there was wasn't very noticable. Also, I wasn't too crazy about the ending, with just sort of 'trailed off'. I guess I was just waiting for some sort of finale. Other than that, however, a very well-made piece altogether.

This song chose to go with an acid sound. It's begins sounding just so-so, and doesn't pick up well until about 40 sec through. Then it get's a little old agian for a while, and I realize that I've been listening to the same old slow bass/hihat beat for the whole song (which, unfortunately doesn't change), but then all of a sudden it picks up a little, then a little more, then rocks at about 2:00 through, something about that pattern just hooks me like a fish (it salvaged a handfull of points). But then the song lowers and pulls into an ending (which was well accented by a cool sound effect). As a whole I didn't find this song too enjoyable because it doesn't evoke any clear emotions within me, and there was only 1 part I really liked (the author should have come too it *much* sooner than 2 minutes through). It used a completely unorigional beat, and simply didn't change it's overall sound often enough.

techno - what should i say - somewhat demoish lines - cut copy paste
