is anyone else a fan of this blog? 'Cause I am. And It just happens to inspire me and my strange, creepy music skills. Inspiration is kinda funny that way. But don't worry. Mommy'll make it all better...

I actually found it rather creepy, until the drumbeat came in, then the creepiness was killed...

Don't get me wrong, it was a great piece! I just think it'd be creepier if we couldn't pick out the beat...

Also, that piano cluster thing towards the end was cool, should do more of that!

yeah that's a cool blog. at least deserves as much attention as the cupcakes / pinkamina blogs concepts.

i dont think the drum beat kills the creepiness. maybe a more glitched beat (something vaguely breakcore) could be a BETTER use. I aslo think taking a Rarity dialogue sample and pitching it down could be a neat trick (if you think it could work) if you wanna make it a bit more ponified.

Very creepy, but when the drums come in, it begins to remind me of some old PC game. Definitely try some sort of breakcore-ish type thing.

Sorry for the late response, but thanks to all of you for your feedback! I'll definitely think about using some different drumbeats and such in the future.

Well, I really liked the beat. I think it would benefit from being clangier (think Black Lion Massacre, by of Montreal), but I actually think it helps enhance the creepy atmosphere, and the piano freakout was awesome. You know, I still remember the first song you shared here, it's such a joy to see you come such a long way in such a short time. Keep up the great work!

It's still creepy after the drums, just less so; just a more fast-paced creepy, like a thriller flick.

Though I must agree that breakcore-esque drums would add to the effect of creepy-ness, also nice piano clusters dude! and the evil laugh was a nice touch, too.
