Well...
To be honest. This was a lot of progression since your last work.
This is some serious improvement. I'm dead serious. This is extremely good from your previous things.
A couple things though:
Progression: I agree with everyone else, doesn't seem to really take off. Though through out the whole thing I think it maintains a good melody, and has decent progression, so if you could vary it up some that would be good, but it's already decent enough.
Maracas?: UGH! They were going the whole time! They could stop every once and a while. Please. TURN THEM DOWN OR OFF! Ugh. Yeah. They were good for parts of it, but I felt they were a little overused.
Synths: You used a good variation of synths, I like the ones you choose. It gave it a hip-hop feeling. A few strings here, and a good drum beat, a few weird things here, and the deep bass synth to give it the real hip-hop feeling.
Improvements?: I thought that you could of used some vocals from a movie in this. Like right after the gun shot in the beginning someone were to say "Don't get up" or something to that matter. That's just me dreamin though. Another thing, I've already mentioned perviously. Maraca thing. Gotta go. Other then that I liked it quite a bit. It reminded me of an age of the empire sound-track. When you first start off in the dark ages... yeah. This song had a good aura behind it. The times it wanted to sound dark it did, and other times it had a happy feeling to it.
Great job with this man! Serious improvement from the past!
I'm gonna send you a pm about some stuffs. So look for that.
