I'm liking this a lot. The newground player also turns me on quite a bit.

Sounds like something I'd hear in a DJ Doboy mix, with less cheese. I'm more of a fan of progressive-ish stuff. The piano kicked in just a bit too fast.

Take that as you will.

Techno is cheese. Just skimmed through it cause it's annoying and boring (to me) but seems good I guess.

Allow to call all hip-hop "rap", all music with electric guitars "rock and roll," and everything that I dislike "cheese." Then we're getting to my point


























.




Which is up there.

Usually I'm not into this kind of music, but this demo is awesome. Can't wait for the finished product.

Take that as you will.
It is still a demo, so it was showcasing some of my transitions, as well as different moments of the song.
Final version will have a progressive and layering intro, which will then proceed to the more techno-y part, then to the piano rendition, then to the end riffs
I plan on making this at least 5 minutes long, hopefully longer

Sorry, but this sounds far from techno. I've heard very few REAL techno songs that have been dubbed as such.

r0ng, Dictionary.com has failed in that aspect for the most part. Also, that doesn't fit the song in question. It's rather far from any forms of house.

You get 1/2 point.

"Reverse false appeal to authority." That's when you know they're making stuff up.

Edited for a better argument, but by that I meant an appeal to authority backfiring.

Then again, someone who's been listening to dance music since before Sandstorm was ever played obviously has less knowledge about the genre than someone who views it all as "techno."
