Made with rebirth and a Virus KC :

I'm quiet satisfied with the result but I'm not so sure of the end-piece with the late melody.

Fire your comments please... I need them !

Cool ! this is exactly the electronic music I'm expecting from you
Very effective and punchy. Great synth usage here, and quality sounds everywhere.
Why aren't you so sure the final melody is good ? maybe a bit too happy ? too predictable ?
I think it works anyway you can try slightly changes but let's see other posters' advice  :-\

Cheers

I agree great electronic music in your proper style, Moon
I'm not so fan of the small melody snippet...
I can accept the (new) concept of a small melody comming in only at the end of the song, but it didn't realy add something to the song here ?
I'm not realy sure it fits in....
Just my opinion

Moon,

IMHO,I really like everything done so far aside from the ending melody,as I think Kara is right on with his opinion.

The arpeggios and the drums have a great energy and they are a fantastic foundation,but I think you should not only lose the melody,but also begin a new melody earlier on in this piece.

I look forward to hearing further additions to this piece,if you decide to put more work into it. 8)

Cheers,

Thom

Thanks for the comments.

There seems to be a common feeling about the late melody, so yes, it will be changed.

Glad to find some fans !  :-*

Moon,

There is a lot of energy here with the drums and the high quality synth arpeggios through out.  This really sounds great.

I am a novice’s novice when it comes to this genre of music so please consider that as you read this.  I liked the ending melody and I think you should introduce it much earlier in the mix.  If not that exact melody then something similar.  I think that was the icing on the cake!

Just my thoughts.

The composition sounded like it was coming to a very satisfying conclusion at about 1min. 45sec.
A complete and elegant musical statement.

When the melody begins it seems like a whole new song is starting.

Does this help?  :D

Wow, I LOVE this! Some great sounds and a driving rhythm. I don't really like the part after 1:50 but the part before that is excellent. Interested in collaborating on this? :)
