• Very nice stuff. Music is a bit simple but nothing bad. Colors kinda border on being really bad, but looks very good nevetherless.

• Just had to see this again for the synth... What the fuck, seriously :D, fucking amazing, probably the most impressive part for me about this intro.

• Just re-watched it, just to hear the soundtrack again. I must say the vocals are by far my favorite part of it, still digging that industrial feel. Otherwise the track isn't that amazing. Especially the drums sound really cheap. But overall it's still enjoyable, and I'm always happy to hear something new in a demo, or at least something that doesn't get heard so often.

• wait.....what?
  
  Only one gripe: I kinda hoped and even thought it would pick up at the "second part" and develop something new and awesome, but insted it just kept performing the first awesome thing.

• The hall audio is awful, but what I heard of the track, I liked it. I love the vocals on this one, nice 80's industrial feel, reminds me of front 242 etc. etc...
  
  Visuals 'foors rock too here, the screenshot part especially quite big applause. Only problem I have here is that this again feels a bit rehahshed, like a mix of everything ASD has been making since Rupture.
  
  But overall a very good prod again.

  she's obviously a very talented singer and song writer

  
  
  She hasn't written a single song, at least not anything that's publicly available, so it's not really applicable to say that. As a singer she's pretty fucking medicore, nothing special.
  
  Also, you didn't know she released a new song some days ago?

• I think it would work a lot better if it was actual piano recorded with room ambience and such. Same with the vocalsl. That would add the much needed depth to the sound. Also overall lofiness would improve it a lot as well.

• Ok first things first, very enjoyable demo. Even though the color scheme is the usual blue/orange it looks very good and fits well to the rendering style. I must also say the effect that looks like focal blur is executed to near perfection here. Overall the visuals are very very good, could easily be thought to be pre-rendered and it still managed to run pretty decently at 1080p with AA on a three year old GPU. I also very much agree with the sentiment "Using a technique isn't automatically a rip off.".
  
  But my main gripe here is the soundtrack. Not that it's objectively bad, not at all, but it just doesn't fit here. Basically there's only the piano and the vocals, which I consider to be very minimalistic, while the visuals are far from minimalism. With all of the particles running around each with their own movement patterns, I'd expect to hear some other noises as fell. It would also work better if it was rendered with standard polygon/texture techniques. The visuals are also very ethereal, while the soundtrack's very down-to-earth, for me this breaks the cohesion between them a lot (kinda what Gargaj and otehr people seem to have also noted). Personally I would've prefered maybe some droney lofi ambient (someone namedroppe stars of the lid earlier, good choice).
  
  But as said the soundtrack is still very good. And big props for having vocals here, even though they probably aren't nescessary, it's something the scene shouldn't be so afraid of.
  
  Surely one of the best PC demos released this year.
