There's dynamic changes and a variety of instrumentation... it's pretty listenable despite its shortcomings and I have no problem with that kind of song in game.
Really appreciate the comment, but I'm gonna badger you on the defaults because I know how to do more than just use basic samples.

But yeah, I couldn't help but feel like DMB was made just for the sake of an R1 Music Producer title -- not that I'm in any position to talk, I mean... I kinda half-assed on Faint Breath's chart just to get it in, but the song itself wasn't entirely created with intent of just being in game. [shameless self promotion] Hilariously enough, Sentence (see Soundcloud in signature) is something that I wanted to use to get Music Producer on ThirdStyle, but I just couldn't figure out how I wanted it stepped [/shameless self promotion].

As far as the files for this week, I've only had the chance to play VALLISTA. It's pretty hard...

EDIT: I do kinda feel bad for Jake, though -- he actually asked for my help to try and liven up his instrumentation a bit, but I didn't have appropriate instruments in my EWQLSO VST to fit his composition... *sigh*
