NGADM Round 1 review

While wonderfully produced, this song relies heavily on dissonance and non-melodic components. I don't hear any definable leitmotif that could identify any elements or characters in your alien invasion story. It sounds like it's continuously describing the same scene, as if in a side-scroller game. That being said, this song would likely help keep any gamer in the epic battle mood.

A rather disappointing track in that it's not your strongest forte (which I believe should be piano), and it's rather short and unfinished.

What hurt this song was that it was a bit loud. While being enjoyable to listen to, it became repetitive and predictable. But I feel that it's a great song for being made in barely 2 days.

I thought the composition and singing itself were great. However the mixing overall was somewhat lacking and needs improvement.

I scored your song a 7 for the NGADM because while I thought the song was good, the mixing was not as great.

I loved the intro and melody! The overall feel was awesome, and the composition was strong.
However, I wasn't found of the production quality itself, and the sample usage was weak.

Thank you for the review. =)! I'm glad you liked the ideas that I had. And yes, sadly mixing is my obvious Achilles heel. :( Although, could you go more into depth about sample usage? I'm not sure what you mean with that.

The production is weaker than normal for you, but that's understandable considering your CCC got stolen.
I thought this song, although short was very good melody and comopositional-wise. I just wished it wasn't so short.

I love the into in this one. It gives it sort of an "eerie space". I as disappointed when the drums
kicked in however, as I thought it did not fit the original song feel that was presented.
