I get what your saying how people think that the higher tech the synth and equipment they're using than the better there song is regardless of compositional input.
I could imagine this in one of those old RPGs kind of like the early Final Fantasy games. But over all it's a fun song, and there is a lot to it for a song that is so simple.

Thanks for the review!
Yeah, I always feel like I see new people in the forums going WHERE DO I GET GOOD FREE VSTs for this or that and it's like, work on your composition then worry about the presentation.

This is an interesting little upbeat sounding tune. I like that energy... really playful and fun. I can see how it would work well in a puzzle game or any bright colorful type of game.

here is a five on my review one for each of your balls.
But seriously, yeah... the subject of the song kind of strange. But hey, your not the worst singer out there, so you have that going for you. Kind of annoyed with the lack of instrumentation to accompany the song but whatever. I think you could do better as a vocalist... just get some music and think of better a better subject for a song perhaps. Sorry for the lack of humor, but it just isn't funny enough to stand on its own.

One for each ball... XD Oh my gosh.
I'll see what I can do, I don't have any equipment or programs, but I'll find a way. Thanks for the review, I wasn't expecting one. XD
Maybe some piano...

Although the song may not have much energy it makes up for it in emotion.

Kind of reminds me of music from Doom somehow. But that certainly not a bad thing. Rhythmically this song is brilliant, and that's what really stands out. I'm not talking about the beat either, the beat is fine... but the melody just has this really cool sounding rhythm to it.
Nice work.

The intro kind of scared me, I was prepared for the worst. But than the beat came in and I was alright with it, and the melody was pretty solid. But what really stood out to me was the lead synth, nice work with that. I wish more people added that kind of variation to their songs. I also wish I had that kind of compositional skill to use more bold synth solos myself.
Author's Response:
thanks. a lot of my intros are weird, but ppl tend to stick around to hear whats next
if you keep practicing, i'm sure you could pull it off. my solo compostion used to be terrible, but after a while, i picked up on it. and now look at it!!
anyways i'm glad you enjoyed it. thanks again for the review, 9, and your time in listening

I don't see how this song I about what you described. The whole thing seems upbeat and like a dream. But i suppose that's what you meant by it not turning out the way you had planned. But it's still pretty good.
Maybe you could change the scale to something darker around the end but you know... keep the same melody pattern. It might be a little shaky sounding though.

At first I wasn't sure where you were going with this one, but I had a feeling it was going to be good. I mean the beat is kind of generic in the beginning, but you have that opening melody that is simple but funky, and that just keeps the whole song interesting.

Well thats really what I was going for. Underestimation. Kind of appropriate for a cubicle worker, eh?

I wish that the melodic part of the song had a bit more energy to it. The whole thing doesn't really do anything to change it up. It's perfectly fine, but it's just not bold enough. The beat is interesting but it doesn't really hold your interest for long. All you really seem to add is another synth voice that just follows the original chorde progression.
Add some melody or a lead synth and maybe switch up the chords a little bit and maybe it will sound more exciting.
Author's Response:
I understand what you're saying, you want variety, variation, exciting melodies and out of this world solos. Well if that's what you want, then that's what I'll give you.
I will give you the world my friend.

Nice. Kind of had a cool folky sound to it. And a nice style to the whole thing. I loved the chord progression and the sort of mallet and cellos added just the right amount of eccentricity to keep it interesting.
