*This is AP*
Remeber the epic 9 mix flood from The Coop? Well here's ONE of them redone.

CotMM has been kind enough to host this song on his shared server. Thanks dude!

Alright! Lets get this sucker judged!

Anyway, I think this is postable, and for the most part sounded very good. BUT there were some parts that I had problems with because the instrumentation was pretty drab (ie, around 0:50, and even worse around 1:25). There was also an audible hiss which really bugged me, especially around the beginning and the end. If I knew your setup I mught be able to help you with it, but for now all I can say is keep your levels high enough that there's not so much noise!

But all in all, I think this deserves a YES

Edit - Never mind about the hiss. I found out it was my computer, which was introducing it into every song I tried to play after upgrading DirectX. Curse Microsoft, curse them!

A nicely arranged submission here by The Coop. Good samples, bassline support, noise effects, and drum work. A song like this is prime candidate for a good song to be totally ruined with crappy drum programming. I see this song as OCR quality. Yes.

Sounds like a reverb problem to me; the background pads and drums causing a hissing reverberation/echo in the background.

Pros:

I dont think it repeats, thats a good thing.
Hmm, it seems to repeat a little.

Cons:

There really isnt too much here. Just some 80s drums, pads, lead that go through the song's sequence.

Im borderline. I feel this song could have had more happen to it, some strings, perhaps another instrument taking over the lead. Less repeating, a drumbrake... something.

NO

mmmm.. right off the bat I dont really like the stabs. they are pretty dry
sounding. I like that drum break at 30 though, got a nice weight to it.
the lead i can deal with.

This is a nice little tune. I'm a little fuzzy on the qualty of the
instruments used, but it does have a nice solid feel to it. I think my
only real complaint is that stab being kinda icky.

As for the 80s complaint... well, hey it happens.

YES

Mmmmm... you guys are making 80's comments. May I just say here, I liked a lot of 80's music. :D
Overall it's kind of quiet, not so great, but the arrangement seems okay and the samples are.. well they aren't bad, but they aren't anything to orgasm over either. Sounds like a high quality tune to me.

Vote: Yes
