  • Play It Loud! : Best song on this site and one of the best I've heard anywhere.

  • JJ : That lead melody that starts at 00:33 kills me everytime (its that good), not only that, but when it hits multiple voices at 1:25 it becomes absolute dynamite. The whole song builds up so beautifully, it deserves some kind of award.

  • rekcahdam : Your music is freakin' awesome. Every song you make has a little surprise in it; you think it's good already and it just keeps getting better.. You're like the dream theater of 8-bit! I'm still tryna' figure out when you're gonna let me get me stuff on your label ROFL.

  • vickysbooties : to me, your tracks usually sound scratchy(in a beautiful kind of way). i don't think I've heard a track with noise implemented and blending so seamlessly.

  • Disasterpeace : @µB: CD Baby lets me pick those similar artists, haha ;)

  • µB : This is what we experts like to call a well hacked pro-sound modded chiptune. Btw, CD Baby offers me Steve Reich and King Crimson as similar artists. :D

  • L-tron : I always love your compositions/transitions and sounds. This is a very enjoyable track!

  • carlschultz : very interesting and to me a really high quality solid composition - yeah the melody sounds a bit like post-apocalyptic depression ...with a mission :D the 2nd to last part near the end is badass and angry i like it! i like the mix of 'miserable haunting sections' and 'castle in the sky' type sections, to me it works really well! e.g. the abrupt change at around two-thirds -- i love the beat near the end, all cut up and awesome :)

  • Disasterpeace : Haha, this is definitely the closest thing to pop you've done, but it still doesn't feel like it.

  • Disasterpeace : The first section reminds me of Fashionable Alchemy, hehe

  • Disasterpeace : Good stuff. The B Section is a little funky, me thinks. Is that where you think it's "flawed"? Don't know if you even want these suggestions, haha, but Instead of going F#- > G > E, you could go back to F# before going to C (ie. F#- > G > F#-). That might change the party aspect of the song, though. Haha. Also in the last bar I think going back to A before the repeat may be making things a little awkward, you could try replacing that last A chord with a Bb (A# in tracker land), or E. Or, you could let the C chord that precedes it fill out the whole bar.
