    Maybe this could be mastered a little hotter… idk this has a good sound for the style and everything seems to fit where it needs to so honestly amazing idea and arrangement.
    My only complaint is that it’s too short.

    EDIT Was listening again while reminding myself how the sounds were while voting… I actually think the rhythm guitars could use a little more midrange area — personally.

    I love the driving synths and bass here. They’re beefy and hit nicely. It’s groovy and well performed. It feels like the arrangement is a little short, feels like it ends a little soon and needs more of a resolution.

    Intro sounds less forest and more like I’m entering an alien mothership. Oooo love these industrial drums, they punch hard in a really good way, and I dig the rhythm tone, real heavy sound. You created a really cool groove with the elements you have, although with this length and this sparse of an arrangement, it leaves me wanting more.

    A bit 80s synth lead to help drive us here, keeps pushing everything through until the drums and then the guitar comes in. Everything is very cleanly stacking on top of each other as they come in. Balance is really good here, and all the instruments complement each other pretty well. Some of the synth tones sound a little reedy, but overall doesnt distract too much. A nice fun little ride

    Ah yeah great synth start. Guitars sound great mixed in underneath. Good lead tone. Nice kick sound. Snare sounding nice and punchy too, but there is something I can’t quite identify on it that I don’t quite like… Almost like there’s too much “air” on it. Anyway that’s a nitpick – if I weren’t reviewing I’d probably never notice… lol. Love the 80’s feel. Nice job.

    Love the synth bass and the kick sound. Just overall a great strong vibe going on. Snare gets a little lost in the mix, could perhaps use a more snappy sample layered on top if sinply increasing the volume wouldn’t help.

    This one has that 80s-90s cool shit vibe. Good tones. Good guitar playing. One specific piece of advice I can offer is be aware that you’re rushing. I rush when I play guitar. I’m always a little ahead of the beat. Sometimes it works for the style but others it doesn’t. I think the palm muted guitars here are like the tiniest bit ahead of the mark and it makes the beat feel a little weaker. I’ll often nudge my ENTIRE guitar recordings in a session a smidge to the right and it makes a world of difference. Other than that, I really enjoyed this.

    People on DoD are experts at finding the weirdest ass games possible. Anyway, begins with some solid beats on synth bass + chuggy guitars and drums. Synth bass patch is simple but I love it. There’s some guitar/synth melodies and then a guitar solo. Overall, this is a simple tune but it’s effective, groovy and fun!
