Definite improvement from samurai hills and still a lot more room for improvement as well. The voices at the start were too noisy and cracked a bit. Also the sections sounded random and did not join together very coherently. The drum pattern seemed to only consist of a single tom sample played at crotchet intervals.
I have a piece of advice as well. You seem to have composed this in less than a day between now and when I reviewed samurai hills. Spend more time (like, a week) on it and extend it like tellin a story cause my ideas I submit without spending much time on do shitter. After doing this come back after a couple of days and if it still sounds good then you're ready to go. It also helps to force your friends and family to hear it first in case they have some ideas. (only the smart ones)

I was looking for the shitest ambience on newgrounds for no real reason and that is why i am listening to this 0/5 piece. Ummmmmmm...... I'll try to write something decent in content. I take it that you are completely new to music technology composition and just figured out how to use basic mixing techniques? Um.. I don't have much to go by here but I suppose you have potential (if you want REAL shit, try listening to Soul March by me (my 1st song)). I can hear a full version of this in my head and it sounds alright. Are you using pentatonic scales cause u should if you want it asian sounding.
Now for the actual review.
The melody is ok, I guess, with some minor changes. But you should add a bassline in the same guitar like instrument to make it interesting. Add more instruments like strings or voices or flutes or whatever you want and definitely some percussion like asian style drums or gong or some shit. That is, if you want to make it a full song. I advise you to because right now I am sorry to say I think it has earnt its 0. If you do, be sure to have plenty of variation in your parts and sections. And give it emotion.
Anyway those were suggestions. Hope they were helpful.

Not every day you hear somethin like this- ive only heard the 1st 30 seconds and I'm lovin it. Stroke of genius dude. This is as good as A Wild Fuckin Orchestra!!!!!! Epic orchestral hip hop lol. Only thing wrong is the rimshot dosen't fit- have a tweak or replace it with something else a little softer or a snare or clap or something. Too bad about the quality thing- but Ima gonna download this!! I'll be keepin a lookout for your other stuff from now on!!
P.S. What programs do you use and what plugins?
P.P.S. Could you plz review some of my music if you have the time? I want as much feedback as possible.

Surprisingly, I use FL Studio 7. I used a couple of different sound fonts and samples, as well as Roland's Orchestral VSTi. Then just lower the pitch on the melodies, and there ya go =D. And I'll be sure to check shit out, thanks for the review.

Had a good beat and unusually the repeditiveness didn't get on my nerves. The sound effect of muffled screamin in the bg really gave it atmosphere of emptiness. Reminded me of walking through a grey ghost town where the buildings are wrecked and everyone is dead but I didn't really care.
Well done.

Nice beat. Reminded me of my kitchen utensils coming to life and going generally crazy. I am going to add this to favourites because it is very different. But I'm afraid I don't get why other people don't like it........

Wasn't it just the same thing over and over and over and over and over again? I think you probably did not put much effort into this.

Had one foot in industrial the other in dance/techno which is not a bad thing in itself.
Had nice drums. I think the drums made it more industriallish with out them it would just be dance or techno.

would have been really fulfilling if it had some variation near the end. Nothing drastic- like instead of having B, f then e flat all the time have b, d then c.
