Personally, the piece itself did nothing for me. Although im sure it has for others.
But ill give you 4R just for first 6 bars of the breakbeat...
Thing of beauty...

Its impressively fast, and knocks you about as you listen to it, you clearly know your scales.
In fact, it makes me want to tab it to play myself. In my opinion better drum sounds would have made a huge difference, but they are not necessarily needed.
Props.

Its great, really fantastic, lets just get that one clear first of all.
But.
1] Its not Jungle. (Its not fast enough to technically be classed as Jungle. <160bpm)
2] Its not BreakBeat. (There is breakbeat in it, but it is not breakbeat perse.)
And thats just about tired me out, no more bad points. Well done.

Frankly I have no idea what is going on in the reviews under mine. This isnt Latin Jazz, its Latin. It does not sound like anything from cowboy and/or beebop, and its not too short.
Its very good though. Shame about the reviews really.

As a Bass player im going to give you a 10/5 on this one, which I very rarely do.
But I want an admittance in return.
Your a Wooten fan arent you?

Fast, technical, come loaded with a vast variety of sounds.
Its nice and long, the crowds were a very nice touch. Its well in time, throughout, and theres a reasonable wealth of material weighing in at just over 3 minutes, especially considering the speed of the piece, which matches a much more Drum N Bass like tempo. Good for dancing.
All these factors contributed to getting you your fourth R.
The fact that I like the name got you your 5th. Its clever. Very clever.
5R, distinction upon entry.

Its excellent. One of the best recent video game soundtrack pieces in the portal currently.
The drums need work. Alot of work. Thats about it. Well done.

Yeah I'm pretty sure I need some better drum sounds to use, and a lot more variety. Something I need to work on =/
Thanks for taking the time to review =)

Youve got all your sounds in the right place, but it goes out of time, completely, clearly and its easy to spot when it does.
Your high synth lines, both the first one and its harmony need to be lengthened all the way through, longer notes, and more drive or vibrancy should be added for better punch.
Props, its good stuff.

Its excellent, theres plenty of variety, it flows well, throughout the track, as well as from end to restart.
The highlight of the piece is the drums, despite what other may have said before me. I feel the high synth line that came in about half way needed work. The line was fine and the progression of no two bars the same was very good, but the sound of the synth could have been improved easily, or changed altogether for added effect.
All in all, a nicely produced piece.

Thank you very much for the review, I wasn't quite sure what david was talking about.
But I hear you on the synth line. It was intended as a song for Stepmania which is a DDR simulator, I was trying to make the synth stand out a bit so that it could be stepped. As far as listening value goes you're right I should have probably used a different synth.
thank you again for a really good review man :)
