"10's across the board."

submission: Mario Sex

Originality: Duh. It's the only sex-related thing I'd ever heard on the Audio Portal.
Diversity: You certainly used a lot of sound effects, and all in the right places.
Clarity: Dear god, every squeak was crystal clear.
Effort: Only you could think of something this horrible.
Great job again, Psy. You've shown your incredibly guiltless sense of humor, and once again your flair for exaggeration and sex jokes makes me laugh.

Score: 10

"Max 10's, not common from me ;)"

I love this song. I first heard it while playing Cityscape, which is a challenging game itself, but the music playing just entranced me. I wonder why the music is a lot slower in the Flash, because here in the Audio Portal it's nearly twice the tempo.
The opening four seconds are perfect for a Flash movie's intro, and the main beat builds itself up over a nice 40 seconds. The piano work was beautiful, and I liked the flute and chime combination at 50 seconds in. What truly shows the effort on this is the way that almost no part of the song is very repetitive; there is a general mood and a basic tone, but all of the four-bar segments are separated by changes in melody, not always in rhythm or mood as many other songs are prone to do.
For evidence, start the song and clock, and concentrate on the actual notes. The key is always the same, which not only helps the overall harmony of the piece, but also keeping the "relax" mood intact. The piano melody changes at 0:16, 0:22, 0:28, 0:33, 0:39, and at 0:50, where it becomes mostly steady, with the changes now in the choice of instruments and volume for each segment.
Great job on the song. It is truly amazing, and something to listen to over and over. I've actually grown to enjoy this faster version while writing this review.
