Ok, I was a bit tired of reviewing 8bits, house and technos, so when this madness started dropping in my headphones I sighed of relief.
I really, REALLY, like the intro! And when the strings come at 00:30, for some reason, I want to cry. It evokes in me a powerful emotion, it really confuses me, makes me feel weird and that I like.
More into it, I don't really understand the synth at 01:00. But I do like how it twists.
( this is a random note: I read what Juicebomb wrote about dissonances, and with all the due respect to his opinion, I say, f*ck it! You do not overuse dissonances, I think you use them quite tastefully, it's the people who are used with only a couple of chord progressions and the way a less trained brained perceives music in perfect chords make some people repulse at the sort of stuff you're doing, but it's not your fault, it's theirs. I think it's in your best interest to remain as true as possible to your intentions and likings! )
I really like the piano from 02:34... This piece is obviously done by someone that knows to a big extent what he's doing.
I applaud your courage and your taste!
Ah, I also suggest turning down the guitar from 03:00. It's way too loud, and I don't consider it to be that important to enforcing the melodic idea of the piano.
The last minute of it I really like ( except the loud guitar, again... sorry, I just don't dig it, lol).
All in all, great courage, good piece, hat down.
