This looks great! Suitably epic and lots of songs I don't know yet. Can't wait! <3

Thank you so much! :D I hope you enjoy; I always like being able to introduce new songs to people!

Well, if you like introducing new songs to people, then you can be happy now -- I went after most of this fanmix, and I'll be sure to check up on the bands I haven't listened to before (I especially liked Fair to Midland *-*). I'm not really familiar with Transformers, in any of their generations (I used to watch Robots in Disguise as a kid, so I just have a vague idea of who everyone is), so I can't judge how you've chosen to portray those four, but I really liked how well the songs fit with the explanation you wrote! Also, the mix has such good epic moments, and, especially in the Optimus/Megatron part, you can feel the two voices of the characters, and how they dialog, and how they're not so different. Even the Korean song goes well with the other songs, while obviously different. Really nice work here! Congratulations, and thanks for sharing it!

Oh, wow, I'm really glad to hear that! (And I'm glad you liked Fair to Midland; I really love the song I used from them.) I appreciate hearing that the songs fit my writeup even for those who aren't familiar with the series, and that I managed to make all the songs fit together well, even the bonus song, I'd been a little unsure about including that one. :D Thank you so much for the feedback, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

I really liked this mix. I'm not familiar with the canon, but the songs illustrate the theme very well. And I'm always interested to see how similar opposing sides are when you get down to it.

I'm really glad you liked it! And that you think I did a good job of showing the similarities between the characters. It's always good to hear I was able to accomplish what I set out to do, heh. c: Thank you so much for leaving feedback!
