I'm an electronic music producer and high platinum protoss.. as much as I hate Terran the Marauder is one sexy unit. So much so that I threw together a track featuring our OP infantry buddy..
then I was like well this could be interesting so I gave it a listen and ehhhhhhhh
I mean I think it has potential but theres too much blankspace inbetween. A lot of the quotes used from the Marauder are the ones you hear constantly and not the offbeat ones, plus it being way too long with the maruader quotes being too far spread apart and linking together the music instead of being the focus.
Maybe try and shorten it up a bit and use the quotes as the main part of the song with the house music in the background?

Thanks for the input.. I dig what you mean about having the quotes be the focus (maybe create some kind of melodic idea), but it is a DJ friend electro track.. which is why the long intro/outro, breakdown, etc. The track needs to be remixed a little bit and master properly.. I did it in a few hours so it's early days yet!
As it was said earlier, the quotes are a little too far apart, though not much. Overall, I really liked the song, and if you had maybe 2-5 seconds less time gap between each quote, I think it'd be awesome. Nevertheless, awesome work, I know how tedious this can be. D:
As it's called "Demo", will there be an extra long 10:00+ club version? WANT!
Also those quotes are perfect. If you add too much they will get tedious. Maybe a break with a really long quote would add some flavour but I really like that song.

Solid Electro-house track but the samples don't sit in the mix at all, you definitely need some effects or something to get them more incorporated, I would suggest using a slicer to split main syllables and chopping the quotes into a more rythmic/electro feeling form. Cut that shit up.
