Woo, kicks off with a pretty intense DnB beat, it's a trip. I like the spacey melody, feels like it drifts from one place to another, like a comet blazing a trail through a sea of massive distance. Nice work!

Thanks man!
Minuter as in... minutes? Do you have any chance have some link to Sweden? This is an awesome track, so smooth and heavy at the same time, it sounds a bit like electronic metal at the beginning, a bit like Pain, but the guitar that kicks in really breaks out of that pattern. Awesome melody, awesome pace. Wonder if the beat could be heavier somehow, but it sounds awesome. Nice work!

Thanks for the review.
I used Addictive Drums for the beat and with AD, the Kick, if loud, tends to really overtake the hats, and cymbals. I didn't want that to happen, so I took the bass out from under them so you could still hear the drum kicks, but also the full cymbals as well. I probably could've mastered the entire drums and gave it just a tad bit more bass, but I didn't want to risk the cymbals being overtaken by the kicks, so I left it as is, just to play it safe.
Also, I usually just name my songs words that I made up. Does minuter mean something in Swedish? I'm also REALLY in love with Swedish metal as well, so there's that...
Woo, what a crazily fast paced introductory theme! :D It's got a pretty intense rythem, energizing and creative, makes me type this review much faster than I usually type reviews. :P Great bass; beat, and the melody makes me think of Tetris somehow. Nice work!

Thanks. I was just trying to coming with some random ass crap when I made this...
Nice and mystical. I like the melody, but thinking without that same synth from the fun loop it might sound a bit more serious. Potential for even more, nice working!

Thanx
I like the beat! Heavy and steady, and the melody's mellow and spacey, but a bit sharp. The instrument that starts around 0:17 is way too sharp IMO, feels like if I didn't have the volume low I'd actually damage my hearing with that. :/ Maybe it has to do with sound quality though? any chance it could be saved at a higher kbps? Good otherwise!

Sorry about that
This was a really nice track. I was expecting a longer build-up at the beginning when the beat starts, but the music just kicks in right away! After that point it doesn't progress quite as quickly, but the pace feels right. The twist to exotic and Asian around 0:30 is interesting, and when the voices combine with that it's an almost otherwordly experience. Coincidentally I also got the hypnotizing swirl transition to accompany the music for that phase... just perfect. :D
The shift from strings (wonder what instrument that is? balalaika? mandolin? sitar?) to overall ambiance around 2:30 is probably my favorite part. I like the shuffling beat that kicks in at this stage too. I'd like to provide more feedback but I just like listening to this, can't think of anything I'd want changed. Except for maybe the genre, I understand this could be used for hiphop, but without a verse for it it seems like an entirely different one, at least until the shuffling beat towards the end.
Wonder if the voices are all you? They fade in and out quite nicely. Nice work!

Thanks for the feedback, I really appreciate it.
As for the shift from strings, that particular one is a mandolin, and the similar instrument throughout most of the track besides that is a baglamas.
I went with hip hop because I thought it resembled some trip hop artists I know, and because of the dependence on the sub bass to carry the track.
The voices are a mixture of samples of "Pilentze Pee" an often sampled bulgarian chant that can also be heard in songs such as VAST's Touched and Jason Derulo's Breathing, and a reversed and chopped sample of the studio acapella of Lisa Miskovsky's Still Alive.
This is definitely my favorite of the two Pops Frenzy tracks. It's got such a catchy happy laid back style somehow, I just like the melody, energetic yet not too exaggerated in any way. That baseline... I think it reminds me of Smells Like Teen Spirit a bit. Really nice work!
-cd-
Hahaha! It also gives me some feelings that reminds of Smells Like Teen Spirit, but I had no any intention for that XD
The title fits the track perfectly, it's cloudy, dull, oppressing and monotone somehow. Like a day sitting indoors, you don't feel like going out, you don't feel like doing anything, the world's out of touch, clouds drift and yet like a drifter you pass them by. It's not an incredibly varied piece, but it portrays that theme perfectly. Great background music!

That's not the vision it gave me but I can sort of see it as that. Actually that vision with this could go in a flash anime of some sort maybe. I don't know. I like variance when I make things. repetition only sounds good of its done right which I don't think I can do it right but I've never given in that much effort so who knows. Background music was all it felt like which is part of the reason I branded it as video game music. Thanks for the review.
Jesus and His resurrection might be an inspiring thought to some people, but as a purpose-searcher with somewhat different finds that note doesn't really hit. :) It does sound like a resurrection though, mysterious, melancholy, dark... and then with that sudden spark of magic and melody, a miracle, a vision, a meal of nutrition in a starving world.
I really like the atmosphere it brings, both uplifting and sad somehow. Sublime work!
