so awesome...
one of my favorite songs on newgrounds. Just want you to know when i heard this song you became the first artist on here that i took the time to flip through every single one of your other songs. None really compared to this one i must say, which really says something for this song. Thanks a lot for putting it on here!

haha awesome!
the melody is what i love really! it just shouts lets get up and get moving! and then you have that contreast between the empty cleaness and the freaking out lol. lots of fun man, i wish i could write something even cooler for this
Neat, and tough to do synthesized
Just so you know i do play violin among a couple other instruments, so i'm not a techno junkie and do appreciate this music, and have played in quartets before to boot.
I loved the chords and how it flowed, that my friend was gorgeous. The only thing that lost me was some the melody, too many skips and leaps loses the listener a bit. Just make some of your lines closer together and you'l be just fine. When it leaps around like that though it just doesn't fly, at least in my opinion.
The song would be even more beautiful live i'm sure, with a violin doing more tasteful vibrato than the constant one provided by the synthesizer, which is completely not your fault, just a note to think about.
Overall i liked it a lot though!
9/10 for the melodies
5/5 because this doesn't deserve that low of a score
~Rit
Thanks very much for the vote and feedback :D It's nice to hear from someone that has experience in string quartets, I play trombone so I've only ever heard those quartets play lol
I love your style
I follow the same style in composing as you do, where you just sit there, listen ot what you have and just feel what your heart wants to hear next after what you have already made. i feel like its the most natural way to make music and i do agree it takes longer, but good things only come with time right?
Anyways very great job. i wish i had the versitility with my program to make masterpieces like this, i only run in a free program called LMMS...its a little...underwhelming to say the least. i can't modify the presets or anything, but i do what i can. Check out my work if yor curious, and keep up yours! your doing a great job!
Only critique i'd like to give is i heard that piano line in the beginning too many times, and it was easy to pick out because of that half step dissonance at the end of the phrases. Thats what stuck out to me. Also, you have a problem i also battle with, your lines have no rests in them. Try making your melodies just have little gaps of silence at least, as strange as it sounded to me at first it add a lot.
Good Luck!
~Rit
Thanks ^.^
Very fun!
any song that just lets me enjoy myself in all the ways i enjoy listening to music is a sweet thing indeed, i just love everything that happened here. wonderfull job man, i know how much i value reviews as an artist myself, i had to take the time to write one for sucha great job. its so cool that just some seemingly "generic" beats (not really, just lack of a better term) can be mixed with an interesting chord progression to just bounce and have a lot of fun.
Thanks for this :)
~Rit
Thanks glad that you liked it. And I rarely use generic beats. Most of the beats in this song were made "by scratch." I think one of my favorite drum beats I've made in any song is in 2:21-2:45.
Plain...
just nothing different about it all. a good start if your really new at this is suppose, but itd be cool to hear some change in beats or chord progressions, and the song doesn't really "go anywhere" either.
better luck next time
~Rit
Thank you for the review. This is a beta right now. I spent about 10 minutes on. I didn't know what to do with it after. Please listen to my other music too, please.

Literally the BEST SONG EVER!
my absolute FAVORITE song on newgrounds so far, i really love it man so much. I've never ever heard of a combination between jazz muted trumpets and some clarinets with a techno beat in the background? totally awesome! Ooozing with jealousy though, oh well i'l learn soon i hope. Keep up the amazing!
thank you for such a great song,
~Rit
ahh....
something that actually sounds like real jazz, what a relief :)
gotta give props where its due man, nice
Thank you, Ritenuto!
Sounds more like an alto...
its definetly real though. you couldn't get some of those neat human inflections without an impractical amount of work if its physically possible to do it at all.
nice tone to the person who played it though (i'm an alto player myself), wish i could get my sax to sound like that.
the 7 was because despite it being very chill, it velt sort of empty to me, and the solo very simple. i liked it, but i feel it had more potential
Was from pre-made loops, unfortunately... But someone really DID play this at a time.
Man this piece is old as dirt.
