Your best effort in a while. No doubt about that. Seriously. This track is full of awesomeness. A lot better than your original version.
This song reminds me of stuff by another NG artist: ParagonX9. I'm sure you've come across her at some point since you've started. She's one of the best if not THE best electronic music artist on NG so take that as a compliment! :D
Everything is almost perfect. The synths, the production. Damn... All professional.
When it finished, I was left dizzy. Thought you should know that.
In other words, continue making DnB music. Period.

So perfect. The British accent really fits well with it and the background music makes it sound like a real public announcement. The text was really funny.
"...perhaps you vote zero because you have everything in common with this number... you're a fat juicy nothing with a dick on your head and your just jealous because you cant make a basic drum loop and simple chord progression....and so you click zero to give yourself a feeling of self worth...because if you vote zero it means they are worse than you doesn't it?"
"...voting zero is just vindictive twattish behaviour sponsored by Nazis and Atilla the hun."
LOL
My stuff gets high scores, then gets bombed so I can relate to this. (with British accent): Good show, old chap!

Okay concept, composition needs a lot of attention. It's basically all quarter notes with very little movement. There's a lot of weird harmonies like 2nds and 7ths all over the place. There doesn't seem to be any direction in this piece whatsoever.
Learn music theory first. It'll make a world of difference.

I know that you intended each section to sound different but to my ears, it all sounds progressive with the Hammond, the chords it plays, the overall song length, the strings at the end, etc. With a bit of old fashioned rock thrown in. The son is still well composed.
The transitions are actually quite good.
And dude, you gotta let me know when you upload a new song. Your stuff is growing on me!

I will do so, and thank you very much, I am flattered :).
Also, thanks for your comments.

After I heard this, I went to hear the original. There's obviously a huge difference between your production style and his. Your production seems a lot more fuller and bass-heavy so the style more DJOrsa-typical.
I noticed you didn't leave the drums and bass to do their thing in the end like he did, so you emphasized the melody more, which is quite typical of you.
You did a good job making this song your own.
Author's Response:
Yeah, I'm a sucker for a good melody.. and I love adding harmonies, which is another big change I made. :D
Thanks for the review, man. I really appreciate it. :)

I really like the programmatic feel that you put into this piece. I know you've intended to put someone in your shoes and you did a perfect job with that.
The instrumentation is absolutely gorgeous, the production is quite flawless, the melodies fit, etc etc.
Deserves a 5.

BAD.
This song shows everything that sucks about rap. Throw in a ten-year-old's voice and it's garbage. Good job. You've managed to take music to a whole new low.

Absolute craziness. Original, too! You are my favorite Newgrounds musician. No question. I feel somewhat dwarfed now :(

This was a bit typical of most techno I hear but it was still pretty good. The beginning kicked ass big time. You picked the perfect timbre for it. You seem to have a knack for orchestration. Have you ever written any orchestral music?
The structure is rather simple but it was still cool.
My main problem is the EQ. It still sounds a bit empty or unbalanced for some reason. It's probably lacking in bass.
Score was unreasonably low, so I 5'd it ;D Zerobombers never review so don't bother asking them to lol.
Author's Response:
No, I haven't written any orchestration music, but I love it, haha. I listen to a lot of Mozart and Vivaldi. It's symphonies, which are close to orchestras, I guess haha.
The bass is low, I just couldn't bring myself to make something that repetitive louder, but I do agree that it is low.
The EQ is slightly lacking because I didn't add any ambiance. I wanted to give it a really free, floaty feeling. Any ambiance would have grounded the sound and overridden the reverb, imo.
Thanks for your good reviews! :D

I really like the piano in there, especially the bass notes.
I'd have to say the strongest aspect of the song is the production. The melodies were okay but the production really makes it work and makes it live up to the title of the piece, which is all that matters in the end, if you ask me.
Not quite "Dreamcatcher" since that's my favorite of yours so far but this is pretty nice.
