Very creative, realistic.
This track is really stunning, and it definitely shows that you've matured in your musical output compared to much of your other works. The piece draws you in with its deep chords, the lovely strings backdrop and the chorus of voices. Very good job, really not much to say on this piece but outstanding in many ways.

Hello Imperfect!
Thank you for your kind words. I really do feel like i've made some progress with this tune, and slowly i'm beginning to understand the tricks and techniques necessary for realistic midi mock ups.
I will check out your work very soon I swear! I'm going on a camping trip, and will be gone for three days, but I WILL get to it when I return.
Thank you for the review, i'm glad you liked it!
YES!!!
-I'll have to say, the two things that I'm always pleased with in your music are the leads and the drums. They're easy to pinpoint to your style. The bass is nothing I'd rave about in an instant, but it does it's job well.
-Great ambient beginning, pleasing to the ears.
-The music box synth was sweet. Seemed a bit too bassy, but it was good.
-That bass that kicks in could be a bit distorted to come out some more, just a little though.
-Awesome leads from there on out, I totally love 'em man. Great job!
-ImperfectDisciple
yahhooooo leads
Wow!
For never ever hearing your work, it seems very professional. The sound, definitely, has a really nice sound. It's a good balance, I can clearly identify what's going on, it's a happy techno rave (it really can't get any better than that).
-The melody could be a bit better. It just sits in one place, it really doesn't go anywhere, but it's a really good start.
-Overall, this song officially rocks!
-Nice job.
-ImperfectDisciple
-Check my music?

Haha, yeah. This song was made relatively quickly, but uh...I really like the way it turned out. Thanks for the review man! Oh i checked out your stuff, you're incredible man.
Awesome!!!
Seemed to capture Paragon's videogame-ish style on DnB (which I don't think is necessarily DnB if it's too videogame-ish, but whatev-). Nice breaks and FX with filtering and volume (or whatever you used). I encourage you to come through on this song.
-Here's an idea, but don't take my word for it. Maybe an ambient beginning and ending would really give this track a cushioning from the hardcore DnB style. In a sense, it's like a balance. It'd be pretty insane, and you've done stuff like that before (ambient beginning, DnB rest of the song for example). Just a suggestion ;)
-I like what you've got though, keep going.
-ImperfectDisciple
I like where you are going with these suggestions.
Seems poppy :P
-It's got that pop feel to it, although the rhythm coming from the drums seems very much opposite to the pop feel. Then again, I could be wrong considering I really don't know much about pop because of Newgrounds (yay), but it's on the right track.
-Although a short piece, I thought it was extremely tight. Like the title, it had a "fluidity" that really came through in the song. It'd be cool with vocals, but those are hard to come by these days (singing lessons, right?).
-Awesome job, keep it up!
-ImperfectDisciple
woot
w00t!!!
Really tight track man, first 5 seconds, and I was already into it :D
-Sounds very video game-ish, so for genre, there yah go ;)
-A very nice theme, it was pretty easy to keep up with. It seems you've gotten better with FL Studio, keep it up man, I really like it :D
-ImperfectDisciple
Wow!
Originality-I really should get a chance to listen to some more goa trance music, that way, I can give you better input on this section. For the moment, it seemed very new wave. The sound is something that is new, considering I barely hear this kind of music. What I can say is that the basics of the song are very similar to alot of other stuff that I listen to, but it a little less obvious this time. Good work!
Diversity-Nice building and dynamics! The song had a great flow to it that just wanted to make you get up and stomp to the beat or something like that :P
-It would have been nice for the song to reach a well thought-out climax. It seems as though you tried to create that with familiar themes and elements used in the beginning of the song all in one place, which was a good attempt. Be critical with yourself on what YOU want (you'll hear that alot from me, that's because it's important). When you're critical as much as possible, it shows in the final product, because people can see the awesome work you've done. This really is a unique sound, keep it up!
Clarity-I can hear that you've taken some of my points into consideration, which is good. With practice and experimentation, you'll get better. Some of your mixes might sound a bit weird at first, but by doing that practicing and experimentation, you grow your mindset of a balance of sound within a song. Overall, the mix is above average, but a lot of your instruments are a bit loud. Now, I understand you might be trying to capture a sense of style within the genre of this song. GREAT! Just remember that if you can push the volume up in some headphones, and something sounds muddled/sharp/something you find annoying, mess around to figure it out and get the right sound within the mix :D
-Effort: YEAH YEAH!
-Work hard, you're getting better at a great rate.
-ImperfectDisciple
Thanks for the review Stephen!
I enjoyed making this song very much. I listen to this one about every day, it's so catchy too me! I didn't notice that it was a bit too loud because I used really good Headphones. Oh well.
Thanks for the review mate!

Not bad :D
The only thing that really catches me as annoying is the fact that your main synths aren't EQ'ed right with the filter FX. If you do want to continue this song (and it's encouraged :P) then make sure to automate your EQ'ing to fit with the FX, because the high end really kills the song when it's so dang loud :P
-Either way, WORK ON IT!!!
-ImperfectDisciple
I never noticed that. PM me because you didnt explain that very well xD
Lol, you should win
This is probably the first MAC7 submission I've heard for the May contest that captures the essence of Newgrounds in a loop. It might not be perfect, it could have a fuller sound with just a tad more going on, but this definitely should win if there isn't anything that could possibly beat it.
-Satisfying loop man, hope you win this contest ;)
-ImperfectDisciple
(I usually don't show favoritism, but this is pretty sweet).
okay, i just got a woodie from reading this. this is so great to hear from you over something i made in an hour or so. :/ top 5 is what i aim for.
