It's better at the right speed...
...but i still find it unoriginal or should i say cliched, beacuse it has elements that have been overused in Trance music for many years.
Nice production and arrangement, but I would never listen to this sort of music anywhere else apart from in this Portal, cos I find it very old, regimanted and unispiring.
Nice...
... I like it, some sounds, like the acidy saw lead at the end i can take or leave, but other than that it's a good bit of experimenting. The piano is a nice riff, but sounds a little cheesy to me and the drums could do with being more punchy and compressed on the high-end to make them sound sharper.
Anyways, enuff of my bullshit advice, Good shit man. Really like this trk.
Hahaha, thanks for the review KB :) I know, the saw sounding thing is lame, the Piano is cheesy (hmmmm, cheeeese!)... But it's just an experiment ;) Hehehe :D I appriciate your honest review :)

I dig this!
This is cool. Kinda olskool video game sounds mixed with nice lo-fi beats and chopped up shit. I like it a lot, even that very dodgy sounding horn sound is cool, co it fits perfectly with the style of the trk. My favourite tune by u so far. More of this experimental weird shit pls:D
When I was listen to this song my attention was set on the SFX i added. So I thought I'd add something to kind of....get out of the way....or something.
That's cool that it's your favorite song, I tried!

P.S. By the way King..I went to search for your audio and stuff and everything was gone!!!! What's up wit dat?
Catchy...
...but it is that same ol bassline rhythm that i find overly tedious. I like the sounds and i like the dynamics of this trk, but it aint the sort of thing I would ever put on my stereo at home.
Hahaha :) That's Ok, aslong as u vote 5en my friend ;) Hahaha,

ARRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
I think the production is just right for this kinda song, it sounds semi-live and nice and dirty. I also like the fact the vox merge into the other parts, as with this kind of trk is it really necessary to know what's being said? I think not:) It's all sounds nice and angry and thrashy, it's a perfect length too. Not too long not too short. Gets my 5.
1hr eh! Good stuff.
Yohoo.
Nice that u like the song man, the vox-merge is something I wanna use more in future metal-projects. I like it too :D
But lyrics, yeah, important if u buy an album, or have some political or other engegement towards the subject of the song, othervise I really don´t care bout lyrics that much.
Thanx a lot for 5´ing and reviewing the song dude :D

Floink!
This trk is great, possibly my favourite of all your trks to date. It deserves to be higher in the weekkly chart, I hope it wont get ignored because it's such an original tune and the production is so tight. I'm sure this will get picked up by some animators, it's perfect for fighting/running action scenes.
Great trk. U should be very proud of it:D
Yoo!
First I´d like to say that I think it´s a great loss for both the Audio Portal itself and all the fans and 14-years old ppl ;) on the site to loose your music here on NG.
But respect and 100% support for your decision!
Really glad you liked this track, I´m not sure I think it´s my best (still, "Never Having Second Thoughts" is my favorite), but it´s up there ;)
I too hope i´t won´t be ignored, but hey, it sure as hell will, it´s in the misc category. Sux. :)
Thanx a 1000 for your review, it´s allways good to hear from you former King of the Portal!

I dig this....
....not much different to say than I've already said:). Good shit, original and inventive.

It's cool...
...I think everything about this trk is great. I think the drums and bass could be made phatter, to help the trk kick along a bit better and that's why i gave it 9/10, but that aside i really like the vocal samples and the chords and sound of the instruments/fx u have used.
I noticed this has been voted down low (that's the reason i got Tom to remove my trks, i was fed up of people voting 0 on them), this gets my 5.
thanks for the review:) youre the best!
Well.......
...I like the drums a lot. And the 'That's right' sounds cool. The video game sounds are great, but as soon as you add something like, 'Fuck me harder' to the mix it kinda makes me not wanna listen, cos it's so cliched! The trk is superbly arranged and i would like it a lot more if it didn't have the title and vocal parts of the title.
I really like the rhythmn and style of the trk, but i wish you had chosen better vocal samples.
I would give this 10 because of the style, drums, rhythmn, arrangement and creativity, but that whole 'Fuck me' thing bores me.
Im glad you liked the song, besides the vocals. I figured the whole fuck me would make the song more catchy, but everyone has there own opinion. And I respect yours. Thx for review.
Nice...
...I like the eerie calmness of this track, created by the mellow strings and melancholy guitar picking/chords.
I think the hi-hats are way too high in the mix, they ruin the gentle atmosphere. The drums in general could be better, simpler even, to let the other parts speak for themselves.
I would really like to hear some radiohead style vocals on this trk.
Good stuff.
Thanks. :)
