I made this because I wanted to do something fast paced and energetic and also to try some different techniques with the beat and synths (Making wobble effects with LFOs and panning those wobbles and such and trying some formant filters).

so that's that..

Nice one! Nice sounds mixing! Lovee it. Why does this went out of the melody? It doesn't in my opinion.

Hey man thanks ! but yeah there's a slight change in the scales for a second, but it's not like song destroying or anything like that.

I could totally hear this on some gameprojects, reminds me of early pokemen themes! :D At 0:42 I think you went out of the line with the melody (I know it's a matter of opinion as some artists use that as a powertrick) and IMHO it doesn't sound good. Going out of the scale like that does bring a shock to the listener but in an upbeat loop like this it's a wrong kind of shock.

Otherwise, I like what you did with the loop, especially with the wobbles you said you tried. I get a determined positive atmosphere out of this, maybe a good tutorial loop? /Cheers

Hehe man this was playing on my mind for a while.

After reading your comment I had to go back and check and search for any off-put notes but everything appeared in place.. But it's the lead synth and bass :P. Twards the end, the bass goes down in scale while the synth goes up in scale and I guess they kind of clash to make some strange sounding chord if you will.

I did rearrange the bassline to make it fit and in all honesty it didn't sound as good IMO. It lacked the kind of depth the messed up version did. But I guess that's just how I see it. I knew something was off when I heard it but it didn't bother me that much, infact I rather like it :) but that's just me.

I appreciate this analysis man really made me think and backtrace :) thanks!
