It's really nice that you've put this together for people, but the black text against dark green background makes it almost completely illegible. I'd change the background color and re-upload it.
Author's Response:
I thought it was actually easier to read... The dark green makes the black text more mild. What isn't easy to read is when I made some of the text on the right bright blue.

Oh my God...I teared up from laughing so hard at this. This was like a Flash animator version of Jeff Vogel's gloomy rants about the misery of being an independent game designer. Well done, Mr. T.

...Mister T. Heh.

You never disappoint, sir. I like how Lot sounds uncannily like a certain former president as rendered in a certain Scooby-Doo parody series on a certain flash website by a certain author. (I'm pretty certain about it.)

I absolutely love this beat--*this* is real hip hop, not the garbage they play on the radio. It reminds me of some of the great independent stuff I used to play on my radio show back in the day.
My biggest criticism is that some of your transitions are choppy; you should try to avoid letting samples just cut off suddenly. You should also make an effort to find more samples to weave in, or at least toy with the beat--that will help keep it from getting repetitive. See if you can find the old Tomfoolio tracks Son of Drifter and Sleepwalker; those are good examples of what I'm talking about.
Author's Response:
Making transitions with samples is easier said than done. Whenever I sample something, I listen to the entire thing about 5 times, just to get an idea from it. Then from there, I take what I can. I do my best to use as much as possible, but there's times where things just don't go as well as you'd expect them to. That's pretty much what happened with the transitions in this one. The sample its self didn't even follow a standard hip-hop song time signature, so I had to cut a lot out.

This song is beautiful. I love how you manage to make it feel very effortless and smooth, yet keep me guessing about the song's progression. Touching yet original, natural yet unpredictable. You, sir, get a 10.
Author's Response:
thanks Mal XD I'm glad you liked it.
I have one question, for you. I don't know why this song gets much attention, so could you please pm me where you found this song? :)

The name of the song put me off from listening to it at first, but this is simply gorgeous, and quite well-produced to boot. I also just love how it ends.
I do feel like there's a bit too much attack on the strings after 2:30, though. That section feels like a more natural fit for legato. Overall, though, great job!
Author's Response:
Haha Really? Well i'm glad you pointed that out to me, I'll keep an eye on that next time. hmm legato does seem like a good Idea I'll try and use that to my advantage next time.
Thank you for your input and come again!
