1:08 totally made my day, excellent drop!!!

I really like your sampling at 1:34.

2:35 is an excellent contrast, cutting the dnb and using the regular piano, and has a great transition back into the hard stuff. Same at 3:56.

My main complaint is that from 1:20 to 2:00, and all the other similar sections, your dub gets kind of repetitive. I would mess with the timing, launch some envelopes, do glitchy stutter, or something to spice it up so it isn't the same wub over and over again.

Over all though, definitely enjoyed listening!

The idea for the song is very cliche. The samples still have some background noise, and that sounds bad. The "ooh, this is my jam!" sample is another one of those samples that is pretty overused, but I guess we just don't hear it as often. Hm, overused isn't exactly the correct term, but it's sorta like the vengeance sample pack vocal samples, is a good comparison. The mood of the song doesn't really match the happy mood of "smile smile smile", but alright. It sounds pretty good otherwise.

i like it, its kinda like old school mixed with the new :) you need work on your mixing and mastering but thats something that you learn within time from your mistakes. the biggest problem though is the percussion doesn't stand out enough (mainly the kick and snare), try layering and EQing them if you haven't already.

Apart from that though its pretty good, keep it up :D

I'm basically gonna echo itroitnyah. It's good as far as the actual music goes, but the idea is pretty cliche. And the mood, doesn't really match that of the original. Sometimes, that can be a good thing, but it's kinda difficult to pull off a mood change and make it great.

Still, I like it, and this is probably one of the best things I've heard made with Garageband. The mixing could be a bit better, but yeah, pretty awesome. :)
