Sounds good. The beat was interesting enough, all the samples sound good. Changes enough to keep my interest. Love the ending. Love that bass lead (before and after track 15). Interesting wind-sounding sample used at the beginning and the end, it adds a nice touch. The tune itself doesn't vary an awful lot, but it does vary enough to keep it interesting. :)

An average tekno song. Not unpleasant to listen to, but certainly nothing new to excite the senses. The utter lack of any sort of panning in this song detracted from the song's overall presentation. A bit of seperation was needed to unmuddle the sonud. I found "Submissive" to be very anti-climatic in parts, most notably around pattern 20, and near the end of the song. The big reverbed snare around pattern 20 seems horribly out of place; leaving myself unsatisifed with that rough transition. The transition near the end of the song isn't really necessary; I expected the song to continue along with the new idea, but instead it just ends. I didn't really have any trouble with the sample set, as they all seemed to work well together. A good showing for a rookie entry.

Really convicing piece of music. Groovy beat, effective sound. You made the right choice using overdriven synths to produce guitar effects : this way you don't have to be obligatory reallistic. It's a shame you didn't use pannings in the song (or very few). The mod is short too, and the end is fast-made. Time up ? Try veteran division next year.

Good 'R' song. Real good guitar riffs and 'hard core?' mood. Yes as 'R' perfect song.

sounds a little like old depeche mode pieces - solid for the rookies section
