I like the spacey atmosphere and beat at the beginning. The production is solid, and the sound design, while a bit cheesy, fits the mood nicely. The melodies at :55 are great, although by around 1:30 they feel a tad repetitive. The active percussion line helps keep things moving, and the drum solo at 2:04 was a nice touch. Lots of rich crashes and hats in the top range to balance out the frequency range. The more frantic lead at 2:27 is good for some variety too, and it starts feeling more dynamic with the ascending line at around 2:55. The chord stab at 3:10 was a nice idea too. Overall, this piece gets a bit repetitive after a while - some more dynamic melodies or even a modulation would help give it more variety. That said, the production quality is strong, the sound design is fun, and the energy and upbeat mood enhance the catchy rhythmic content. I’m not a huge fan of fade-out endings, but that’s probably my only complaint with the arrangement. Overall strong work here, BasiatordeCoronatus! ^_^
