Did I leave a review on your previous submission? I don't remember. But if I didn't, I'll be sure this review makes up for it!
One of the tags for this track should be "hybrid", because this is very distinctly a hybrid track.Seriously, I hear electronic influences, rock influences, chiptune influences, orhcestral influences, etc. And it's awesome! Everything seems to compliment each other, even though the sound design clearly outlines multiple genres which usually conflict with each other. Nice mix!
Your melodies do a good job reinforcing this mix. They sound well-adjusted for all the genres you've meddled into this track. Plus they're catchy. Also btw this song gives me a very distinct Touhou vibe for some reason. Come on, that's a good thing! Smile! :D
At 1:57, I'm hearing something that I swear I've heard already during this competition. You have a little pre-drop section where you play 4 measure riff once and then do it again except with hi-hat drums and stuff which drop out on the last measure. Was it you that did that in the first round? I can't remember. But you used a tried and true tactic, I like it. Moving on.
Speaking of your drums, I really like them! The hi-hats feel really driving and on top of the beat, if you know what I mean. Although I do feel your kick could have a bit more, it's pretty solid!
That atmosphere at 1:22! Awesome!
Also I feel like your main melody square-saw sound could be a bit more on top of the mix at certain points, like 1:46.
But overall this is a REALLY solid entry! You impressed me last time, and you've impressed me again. 5/5, 9/10, AWESOMENESS Good luck beating SkyeWint, you've got a tough matchup! ;D
