Minimal, brittle almost, but a very nice take. The bass writing was a hidden gem. Picked up a bit at :24 with some added percussion, then a change in the textures at :38 with various bells and whistles. Track still felt pretty empty though, and the sound quality was inconsistant depending on the part, with the organic stuff sounding distant and the electronic stuff sounding really clean. You need a real ending too; what's in place now is a weak resolution.

Overall, I'd love to give it the pass, as it does a great job of personalizing the arrangement though retaining the tempo and structure of the original. Something this brief needs even more personalization in lieu of length and development. If you're not going to build horizontally, build vertically. If this doesn't pass, RESUBMIT THIS! Really cool so far.

NO (rework/resubmit)

The instruments need to sound more definied in terms of mixing, as they sound quite distant and lost when there are several playing at once. The arrangent is very good, and the instruments chosen really work with the stlye. It is the execution that needs to be taken up to another level. The ending makes this feel incomplete - this submission is good, just needs some more work.

NO (Good candidate for resubmission)
