Pretty good autopilot time-filler thingamabob... and you tightened up that little gap where it loops at the end. Much better.

Nice little digital/percussion autopilot fribble. Better do something about that blink-gap of silence when it loops, though.

When I listen to this, I've got an image of Santa and his sleigh getting assaulted by aliens or high-tech thugs, and his Elves are on flying hoverboards fighting them off.
Love the quasi-Christmas orchestral start... and how it revs up into techno. Great stuff!

It's still got that tie-die verve of the original... but it feels like it should be an extention/add on. Maybe you can combo the old and new into one tune somehow?
I like the ... I'm not sure what that new instrument is... sounds like it's a dulcimer or chimes of some sort... it feels a bit more 1960s, anyway.
Still haven't gotten the thing to properly loop at the end though... c'mon, there's gotta be a tutorial to help on that.
All the same... like, smooth, man.

Truth be told, I made these songs when I was around 13 or 14. I had some help with my brother, but it takes a long time to get the sounds right. I should get into using the program some more to put in some of my flash.
Thanks for the reviews. =)

Uh... not quite what I was hoping for... it started off pretty well, but meandered a little too long for my tastes... then when the digital noise came... and stayed there... I found myself waiting for a hard fast drum riff, then a full orchestra to blast into a rockin' muscial smackdown.
This tune is just BEGGING to be unchained and set free to bust some heads in the arena. Redo it, and let's hear a REAL Jackie throwdown!

Not a bad batch of music... mixes the psychadelic groovin' with a little bit of digital. Ought to be handy in a cyberpunk's entry into an ancient or neo-hippie's lair/crash pad.
Only thing is the sudden cut off at the end stops it from looping well, and it gets a bit repetitive once the digital cranks up. Aside from that... solid, man.

It sounds kinda muzzy and unclear, but I did get it. I think it's better as BGM or a mood piece for a flash than something with lyrics. I think it more needs backup bass or drums to complete it. Anyhoo, you gotz da talent. Fine tune the crispness to the sound quality, and you'll be truly set. ^_^ b

Thanks man. I don't record through the computer so that always kills my quality. I'm not sure if I'm going to put lyrics in it or not because I didn't like the way it turned out. I have a drumset but no way to record it, and a bass is out of reach.

Doesn't mess about. It's country, plain and simple. Made me feel like taking a mountain bike across the bush.
Hard to believe it's from Australia. Very good.
