Up there with your best, absolutly stunning, also I loved how you didnt stray too far from the soundtrack of the game.
Amazing work. Now I have to check your other songs as well. This one receives The Jensen seal of approval.
"Search my electric soul for the hidden man within" - I just love this line. Keep up the good work. And the beat in the background stayed true to the transhumanism theme of the game. It feels like this song should have been in the game, at least in the credits. Maybe we could mod it in the game if the song was released in mp3 format.

A tad laggy. I imagine it's because of the Wednesday afternoon traffic rush, but I didn't feel like sitting through another obnoxious Slim Jim commercial to reload.
Anyway, besides that one issue, it was a pretty enjoyable song. I look forward to seeing what you do next.

Great song, fit the atmosphere of the game quite well. But I didn't recognize some of that footage. Was that some of the pre-release stuff?
not gonna lie, i think that just topped my favorites of yours, that was great and definitely caught the vibe i got from the game.
Something of a chilling feel to that one - sounds a little like lux aeterna from Requiem for a Dream...
*Damn actual shiver during the song * will probably put up there with Deus Ex theme song and Hong Kong market tune in my mind
although the gold and black title make it feel like its going to be a more light hearted song about the game look rather than something very poetic

Yeah, it's a reference to human Augmentation being the new great commodity, or 'Black Gold' - I thought the idea fit in nicely with the colour scheme.Redem said:although the gold and black title make it feel like its going to be a more light hearted song about the game look rather than something very poetic
High praise right thereJ03bot said:
Yeah, I ended up using a fair bit of trailer footage for this one. The songs mood and lyrics seemed much more focused on the setting and Jensen coming to cope with his argumentation than on the gameplay, and I was able to pull some better visuals from there than the footage I captured.Avaholic03 said:
Huh.
About a minute in I was already planning my comment. Something along the lines of, "Lovely lyrics, but the sound somehow doesn't quite fit the tone of the game."
However, it all ended up coming together nicely by the end. I really couldn't say why, since my knowledge of music amounts to, "Noise sound nice in ears." But damn if this particular noise didn't sound really nice.
So yeah, guess I'm a five-minute convert.

very good song, i think the electronic/synth songs are where your strenghs are keep up the great work
Damn, this rivals Trip to Vegas for me. The lyrics were excellent too. Hell, everything was good, everything worked together so well. I always love your more electronic sounding songs.
Petty complaint - you didn't pronounce the first c in electric very clearly. Really petty complaint.
