I absolutely love your flow. No homo.

soundbreaker responds:

Haha, thanks dude!

Eating Dominoes in a Pizza Hut. Teq, damn, where do you come up with these amazing lyrics?

Teqneek responds:

Dude I've been on a roll lately. Been writing lyrics all day long today; some of the best I've ever written for real.

Oh yeah- Wait til you hear my battle with MDJ, the artist formerly known as Emergency. It's gonna be brutal. TUESDAY!!!

Edit- FRIDAY!

EDIT- Sunday. People be procrastinating.

Why does this only have 150 plays?

5/5 for the track; 0/5 for NewGrounds' apparent lack of taste!

AxTekk responds:

Hahaha, WE BEIN SLEPT ON THO

This so is so great, it got my girlfriend pregnant! Hey, wait a minute...

Teqneek responds:

I am NOT the father

You're both winners, but Teq is more of a winner, just better all around: flow, lyrics, mic quality.

Props guys. Great lyrics, great flow. Props to Rama, too, for that funkalicious beat.

Teqneek responds:

Thanks homie! Rama is a beast, isn't he? But so are you so it's all good.

This reminded me very much of Michael Giacchino's score to Up (amazing soundtrack to an incredible film, in case you haven't seen it). This track was not-quite-pop, not-quite-jazz, and not-quite-cinematic... it sounded like one of those fun compositions from the post-romantic / mid-impressionistic period.

BlazingDragon responds:

I LOVE the score to Up! That comparison makes me oh so very happy. <3

As far as genre, I tried to be cinematic with my orchestration, yet "pop-like" with my melodic material. At the same time, I tried to use some jazzy chord progressions (a bit of a lydian feel here and there, lots of borrowed chords, chromatic bass lines, etc). I have no idea what to label it, so I'll stick with yours.

Thanks for the review! :D

I absolutely love the section from 0:41 to 0:54. Very cool syncopated rhythms there, and the theme is really cool. Heck, if you'd written that and then done a couple of variations or - more fitting for jazz - given different instruments some solos over a base rhythm section keeping that established groove, that would have been pretty awesome to listen to.

camoshark responds:

Thanks, man, glad you enjoyed!

The segment you loved was actually the actual song, but due to time constraints I had to cut short and leave it so. I'm actually planning on recording this and adding solos, so I'll send you a PM when it's done!

Cheers,

NO! I'm not supposed to like dubstep! Popular music isn't supposed to be innovative! What have you done!?

You get docked 0.3 points because your track cuts out without a reverb tail, and that makes me sad.

GrantBowtie responds:

Woah, I consider this a really great review especially if you hate dubstep! Ya I've used the reverb tail a lot and sometimes I get tired of it

There are very few things that can make me cry: I'm a manly man, goddammit. The ending of Red Dead Redemption is one of them; Mozart's Requiem is another; and the last 45 seconds of this is the third one.

Sublime work, really.

BlazingDragon responds:

I can't believe my music was just put in the same paragraph as Mozart's requiem. :p

Thank you!
