Awesome made this follow-up/remix of the original "For a New World" (also reviewed by me :) ), and it does sound great. That same melody that tried to creep out at the end of For a New World plays through this entire song. There are great percussion rhythms and extra parts towards the end. For a New World was my first Awesome review. I intently discussed his common technical use there. You should know that this song is a huge download, because there are all (except 1) 16-bit, very good samples. The song is 4:10 long.

Overall Impression (10/10)

Before going for the Awezoom moniker, Victor Vergara used Awesome, which is the name he is known by in the tracking scene. And, boy, is this name accurate! Victor always had this uncanny ability to produce works that have commercial grade quality, but his unrivaled first-class melodies is what captured our hearts.

For a New World II is my favorite composition from Awesome, and one of my all time favorites in general.

Technique, Arrangement, Composition (10/10)

One remarkable thing about Awesome's modules is that they are not permeated with complicated effects, like many tracked classics. Instead, most of it is simple volume, panning and volume envelope work, as well as just a general understanding of the basics of the mix.

And yet, his mixing and sound are one of the most impressive in the scene.

Development (10/10)

I am not completely confident, but I have a suspicion that Awesome's inspirations were more mainstream. While a lot of tracked classics were penned by musicians who have been strongly influenced by the scene itself, I feel Victor's influences are mostly outside the tracked world, which gives his mixes such a mainstream flavor, in the best sense of the term. Back in the day this was unusual and really stood out.

In this case the mix is done in a dream house style, incredibly clean and well balanced. If you did not know it's an xm file, this would sound like modern DAW production.

I am especially awed by his use of drum loops here. He was able to make them his own by the way he panned and combined them.

The strings are also amazing on this one, with the careful volume envelopes that make them sound so natural. It's a small thing, but you take these little details and all together that's what produces a powerful mix.

Creativity (10/10)

The star quality of Awesome's work is primarily set in his audacious melodies, which have this delicate combination of being simple and epic at the same time.

For a New World II has a verse/chorus structure and could easily be a song. Victor takes this structure seriously and proceeds creating a dramatic break followed by what must be one of the most properly used key changes in the history of tracked music. The whole arc of the tune is flawless, absolute grace.

Enjoyment (10/10)

If this was released to the mainstream radio in the 90s, it had all the chances to become a hit. Instead, we have it all to ourselves.

This is definitely one of the most hopeful, victorious and life-affirming melodies ever written. I keep it in my collection, and when I come back to it, it takes me to a new world...
