I do have a few questions for you, though. One, why did you keep the DPCM bass and not use it properly? You're supposed to use it in the DPCM channel, not the Triangle.
Why did you use 0xx arps for the chords throughout the song? These sound real bad in some parts. I know this isn't really *your* fault, but, in Famitracker, 0xx always works at 1 tick. In some other trackers, you can adjust this tick to be slower and sound much better.
Also, I know this is MMC5, but do you think you could have made the bass better?
I know I sound like I'm complaining because this is bad. It's really not. In fact, it's rather good!

The arps remind me of ducks, I don't know why. [color=#373737]It's still better than those which sound like the main item in a bathroom(yeah you'll guess what).
The song is pretty good and the DPCM samples are most stunning at the beginning. I like the cool beat which accompanies the whole melody.
I would recommend that instead of arps, you may use chords on unused channels. For instance, when you put an arp, sometimes there are muted channels around, which can be used to make chords since otherwise they won't have any use. This will help achieve better results.
And thanks for your 12,5% cycle arps. They still sound better than others.
EDIT: Hey! You might try some better bass! Unfortunately, for a SunSoft bass you'd need to use the DPCM channel, which will leave you with very powerless percussions.
Or you could use MMC5 PCM for percussion once MMC5 PCM is released. =V

Your first track was, honestly, better than this one. Still, don't let this discourage you, since you managed to put some very awesome effects in there, like the crazy echoes in 2A03 pulses or that triangle lead in middle-song. It's too bad that the percussion feels weak at some places. Overall, your track is well done, but I hate to say that I found nothing too attractive about it.
I recommend you use noise along with DPCM when possible. That's something you might want to fix, for instance. About arps, they sound much better than on the first song, so that's also a nice improvement.
Of the two, percussion aside, my favorite would have to be sell. I love that bass and arps, and dat intro. Like Mr_Master said, the DPCM is a bit too quiet on it's own, and sometimes just NEEDS to be supported with either tri-kicks or noise. For instance, my Snares (Always called 8-# HAT for some reason in my songs, do NOT ask why.) would be [b]pathetic[/b] without some noise to back it up. specifically 8-#. I would also recommend keeping the echo at P7F in echos (or whatever is one below your pitch for the lead, P80 being the one that makes the most sense. Overall, you have a pretty good style of composing, and I think that, with a few changes and upgrades, your songs could turn out great.
EDIT: Listening to it, I realized in frame 07 that you forgot to cancel the AXX effect.

I've got to repeat what someone above me said.
You're sunsoft bass samples are used in the DPCM track. The triangle channel can't play Samples like you're trying to make it do.
If you're attempting something I don't understand, please tell me.
