Very Enjoyable
I tried overlapping the two songs, Into the Dark and Into the Light....sometimes it works, other times it doesn't, but it still sounds really neat.

I wanted to make something "darker", "heavier" than usual. It's a deep and crushing sound with a nice calm part in the middle.
Don't wonder how the part around 3:03 sounds because it's played with my hands crossed-over. That was hard enough because I'm absolutley not used to that. Switching hands was near impossible because I couldn't play the right hand part with my left hand. So crossing over was my only way :).
Hear it through and let me know what you like/don't like!

UPDATE:
I submitted the "sequel" or "counterpart" to this song called >>Into the Light<<.

lol^^
Those are two complete different songs. I'm really wondering in which parts that could have possibly worked out oO.
I think I should try it :D.
Thanks for your review!

Another Beautiful Masterpiece
Whenever I hear one of your songs, Dudidum, I always think "Man, this has got to be his best song!" I'll then listen to another one of your songs and be like "No, this is definatly his best." I'll go through dozens of songs while thinking that each one is better than the last, but in the end it's hard to say. They're just all so great and for different reasons.
This song, for example, I love just becuase of its seriousness and how deep it feels. I don't really know how to describe it, but when I listen to this song I really get into the music, and I feel like I am on a journey "Into the Dark" as your title perfectally describes the song. It isn't until after I listen to the song that I'm like "Whoa, where am I?" The song really keeps my interested and I am totally focused in the journey I am taken through.
A quick question that I've been wondering about your songs. How long does it take you to write each one? I've never been to great of a songwriter, and writing something of this complexity seems to have taken ages.
Regardless, this is an amazing song like all of your others. 5/5 and 10/10 and downloaded. Thanks for writing such great music and putting it up here for people such as myself to listen to. Keep up the good work!

For the third time, thanks for your constructive review :D!
Everytime I work on a new song I want to make it better than the previous
and that's the reason why it takes longer and longer with every new song to come out.
In the beginning I never even thought about composing hence the names Improvisation. The Adventure Music series was also improvised though with different ideas and more structure.
My first so called "composed" song was Modern Piano and from there on I composed more and more and improvised lesser.
As for your 'quick question': ^^
I often play random stuff on my piano or old stuff from myself and it happens sometimes that I find a new chord progression or a melody with accompainment that I really like.
From this moment on I start to work on this 'idea' and often more ideas come when I work on the inital one. And when I say work I mean stitting at the piano playing around until I find something that fits.
For me every song I write is a steady progression in music and style.
Omg, when you compare the first Improvisation with this song... XD
Thanks again for your review and time!

Dudidum responds:

Fantastic
I seemed to enjoy it wtg
Wow...
...compared to your other songs, this one is as dark as uranus (I know it's ambiguous) and as hard as buttsecks with a turtle. In fact, I think my kidney stones loosened up inside me because of those deep and crushing notes.
Well, to get to the point: I liked it, but something just seemed a little wrong in my opinion (and that's worth nothing). I would have liked it slower at times, so the dark and heavy theme could stand out more. At 3:05 it seemed almost perfect. That's the way I'd have liked it. But to trust my verdict is like hanging your balls in the open jaws of an alligator - you shouldn't do that...
Ok, so that's another useless review from me. Now go and click that little green square with the plus below!
Dudidum responds:
Yea that hit the bullseye!
Your reviews are the most constructive ones since they're really useless :).
But the part with my balls and the alligator was really brutal. Fucking imagination.... sometimes it's really a disadvantage^^.
Anyway thx for the review!
Dud
ps.: There surely will be someone who will click this nice little square for you^^
