I thought your song was well put together. It had a nice distinct beat with a cool techno/electronica sound. The little pauses in the song every now and then were a nice change up. What I liked the most is that no one sound really overpowered anything else in the song. That's always a nice plus side, and truly one of the most important things when it comes to making music. Nice job.

For a short little loop, it has a very clear and distinct sound. I could easily see this being used in a some sort of Newgrounds platform game or something. I guess if you really wanted to, you could've made the loop just a few seconds longer, but I don't know if that's really important or not. Either way, good job.

This was nice, short riff you made. I liked the melodic piano at the beginning. It really sets the song up for what's to come, but not what people may think (if they didn't see the name of this, of course). Anyways, the thrash metal part sound pretty cool. None of the instruments really drown each other out, and naturally sounded cool with all the elements together. Good work.

This was a cool sounding beat. I like the dreary sound it had a lot. One thing I did notice however is that it was kind of repetitive for the first couple minutes. I did like the fact that you did throw in some subtle changes to make the beat sound slightly different and whatnot. That little break before getting into the main beat again was a good touch, as well. I think there's a little bit of improvement for this, but overall, not too bad at all.

I liked this beat a lot. Adding different components throughout gave it that little something extra. Now I'll agree with everyone else and say it's a little bassy, but I don't think it really hurts this too much. It does give it a little kick as to what a hip-hop beat can sound like, just to add a little emphasis with it. It does sound like a Mario melody at the end too, which I thought was pretty neat. You do have the potential to make some really cool stuff. Keep goin' with it.

Again with the bass lol, nah but i did reduce the amount of occurences of it in the second verse but i don't 'think' i'll upload. Glad you liked the melody that you think sounds like Mario lol i spent a good amount of time on it. Thanks for the critique man, appreciate the love.

It really does sound like an underground chase in a futuristic world. The overall beat of the song was pretty cool. Everything you used on this complimented each other very well. I also liked the parts (like around the fifty second mark) where it just has somewhat of a dramatic pause. That instantly made me think there was a pause in the action where somebody's hiding from their chaser right before the find them again. Then the action starts again with the beat. This was well put together. Nice job.

This is one nice song you have here. I especially liked halfway through when the music started to get really groovy. That was awesome. If you ask me, this sounded like a fusion of The Strokes and Kansas, which really comes out to be a real intresting sound like this one. The transistions were nice into the various parts, as well. Nice work.

Now this is an interesting fusion of hip-hop and drearyness. I can see that the name is appropriate for the song. It just has that right amount of eerie sound to it to make it sound like more of a dungeon than maybe say a haunted house. Fusing that with a cool, simple beat made it sound awesome. Nice job.

I'm trying to remember what Sonic game this is from. Anyways, as for the song overall, it's not too bad. On some spots it just sounds like there's to much synth to it. It's almost too loud and a little bit overbearing especially with that bass playing with it at the same time. But other than that, it sounds like it turned out okay.

I was considering getting rid of the bass in the final stages, but ultimately decided against it. It seemed like the song was lacking without it. However, I think i'll take a look again to see if it does sound a bit better without it.
Thanks for your input, by the way.

I like it. It does have some randomness to it. That emphatic beginning sounds like the sound from iSketch when somebody guesses the word right. Also, I really thought that this song sounds like a remixed version of some of the music from the Nintendo game "Pac-Mania". Overall, I liked the tribal synthetic sound it had to it. Nice work.
