"Definitely meets my approval!"
I very much like this track, both for its calmer, ambient aspects, and its simultaneous igh-energy beat. I could definitely see this being used as an actual dance song at some introvert-gamer rave party, absolutely.
I like that everything blends together well, as the original song did. You've actually made me want to remix my own version of this song, now! Yours definitely beats mine, hands down. Kudos to you for a masterful track.

Like this song very much, and might end up trying to find a crack for FL 9, now. Been using a cracked FL 7 for a long time, but if there are samples as nice as these in FL 9, I'm willing to switch. But, aside from that...
Great percussion/bass combo; I knew I was going to DL this as soon as I heard it. I like the light background synths that are present throughout most of the song, and that you keep the original kick/bass pattern constant throughout without it becoming old.
Overall, great job. Definitely kicks the pants off of the quality of what I make. Most of my mixes are re-done tracks from video games, and in a techno/trance style, but nothing of this caliber. Drop by sometime if you feel like it.
5/5, 9.5/10 (Which means I had to give you 10 stars. ;D )
Best of luck in the Future,
EF
P.S. - If you wouldn't mind, send a PM my way. I'd lie to have you email me a version of this song in High Quality, like 320 kbps or something.

Has a good, constant beat that drives the song onward, and lots of ambient synths that really complete the Trance effect. Also, in case you haven't figured it out yet...
Congratulations on getting #3 of this week's Audio portal Top 5!

Well put together song. Very much enjoyed the flow from beginning to end. It sounds like it was made from a MIDI, in my opinion, but if it isn't, that just means you did an amazing job re-creating the notes. Well done, I commend your efforts!
Check me out sometime,

It sounds better hearing it online rather than playing over my FL Studio, that's for sure; I'm a little less critical when I know I can't change it anymore. XD
Nice working with you, Tik.

Armored Core!
I listened to this song all the way through three times after downloading it, and then stopped because I felt like playing a mecha game. XD
I very much enjoy the variations in the SFX that you used, and the way that it keeps its energy level pounding from beginning to end. Nice work, overall.
Check me out sometime!

(First off, don't take the 8 badly, because I DO like this song.)
I like the ambient background feel that it has; I could listen to this while playing a puzzle game of some sort. My only thought is that, perhaps the percussion was slightly louder than it should have been in comparison to the synth and piano in the background.
I also noticed what you said about only doing remixes, and forgetting about original songs. I'd recommend against the idea, because you really get much more satisfaction when you crate something that is completely your own. Just because your scores might not reflect as highly upon your original work, don't give up on it! I do lots of video game remixes, too, and I DO enjoy it, but my favorite songs are the ones I make myself.
Anyway, good work here. I liked what I heard, and that's what counts. Nice job on the percussion, again. Very funky beat you've got here. =)
Peace and Respect,
EliteFerrex (Erich)

"Sure, it's not perfect, but..."
This song is overall very satisfying to the ear. Being an avid fan of Megaman X myself, I definitely wish this song had been looped a little more, and wasn't offset at the beginning, but I'll DL it anyway. Thanks for a good tribute to Spark Mandrill!
(P.S. - Lol at his PWNAGE with Shotgun Ice.)

I was waiting to hear what you meant by "the part in the middle," and then I heard it!
A nice piece of work you've got here, even for the beginning stages. Before your final release, I'd suggest trying to add some personal touches to the main synths that you used, like the Eurogate, for example. Strategically placed Reverb would help it along, as well. If you don't mind, I'm in the middle of making some 8-bit tracks, and I'd like to try making this song into an 8-bit. If that's cool, let me know!
Check out my audio, too, if you get time!

NIce! Thanks for your input. Is fine with me if you want to make it 8-bit, but do you want to wait until i release the actual one, or just do it based off of this? Either one is fine, so go right ahead! Again, thanks for your comments.
