[Revitalize]

This is so beautiful! I love how many twists and turns the song takes throughout. It starts with a much more clam and dramatic intro but gets into some fun stuff as it goes on! Different instruments get different points of time to shine, and really make everything come together so nicely. The whole thing felt like a fun techno-y journey haha, great work and keep it up!

CarlosDaBoss13 responds:

Thank you so much! I try to level up my music with every new release. I’m glad you enjoyed the variety in this one!

[With You]

Very pretty and lovey sounding :D
I love how funky it is despite also being house-y and modern sounding. The instruments you chose are great, the bass mixing is great and non intrusive as well, and the percussion with the sidechain over other instruments makes the whole thing pop. Progression is great too, the whole song feels like it stays interesting from beginning to end. Awesome work, keep it up!!

Takanashi-Sachiko responds:

Thank you! I appreciate the support! <3

[Celestial Paradigm]

This sounds really fun! Kind of like watery space music haha. The cutoff lead instrument makes it sound watery, while the pads and other synths kinda make it sound spacey so its a cool combo. It also feels like something that started out as lo-fi that turned into a dancey and fun track too. My favorite instrument comes in a little after 1:35, the more sharp lead that has a solo part. Just generally very fun progression too, as even though the background arp is mostly repeating, the melodic segments keep varying up and making the piece interesting. Great work, keep it coming!!

dijek responds:

awesome review!!! thank you again for your continuous support bro. getting feedback like this really helps me improve. more music on the way!

[Underwater Melodies]

This song has such a beautiful intro! I love it so much and the idea is so creative :D
The progression is also really beautiful, and I definitely get the water feel from this. My only suggestion is maybe more varied percussion in the second half, or maybe some bass (if you want it to fit the ocean theme you could do like, an almost sub bass maybe or something fun) just to make the song sound a little less empty. Otherwise it's really nice, great work and keep it up!

Renzaliex responds:

Oh shoot thanks man! if you couldn't tell, I'm very very new to actually using this type of software so yeah, could definitely use some extra instruments here, but thanks for the nice review.

This sounds like the kind of atmosphere that would exist in some kind of strange far future jungle full of metal junk lol. Idk how to explain but that's the feeling I got, because it sounds a little like metroid music, but also mysterious and futuristic with industrial sounds. I really like how you got that unique feel going for the song! The synths you used were also very cool and I love how you articulated their bass here and there. Great work, keep it up! :D

artifact101010 responds:

thank youu!! that is what I was going for!! It's really fun making this type of music And I'll probably be making more very soon! thank you so much for your support! also love the work you have on your profile

[Before it Fades]

I can tell it was made with love, it feels very passionate and pretty :)
I love the synths you used too, they really help make the song feel mellow and just chilled out. Definitely something to zone out to and get lost in your thoughts in. Great work once again, keep it up :D

SAGEGREEN86s responds:

Seriously though, I really appreciate your words. This track was made with equal parts emotion, late-night caffeine, and mild existential crisis, so I’m glad all of that translated into something chill.
If it helps someone zone out and take a mini mental vacation, then my job here is done.

Now if only I could make a synth that does my laundry too…

[~[Phosphorus]~]

This sounds really fun, I like it! Definitely dancey and has a fun bass pattern. Also has some of that early 2010s dance sound too I feel. Great work as always, keep it coming!

DeimosMusic responds:

Thanks and ST!

[Speedometer]

This sounds so fun :D
I was hooked from the intro, something about it sounded really heroic. So does the rest of the song too, I think it's something with the chord progression maybe? But yeah this was a fun listen, great work and keep it up!

mistic-planet responds:

the chord progression is: i iv v bIII :)

Thanks for the review :)

[Glitch Factory 2.0]

It does sound pretty glitchy, so I think you did a great job with that atmosphere! There's a fun progression from beginning to end and I like how everything gradually builds up. One thing I'd suggest is maybe mixing, since some parts sound a bit too quiet, while some parts sound a little drowned out (best part I can think of is between 1:10 and 1:11). Otherwise I also really like the effects and risers you put in! Great work, keep it coming :D

Jok3004 responds:

Thanks! Mixing is probably the thing im worst with but I'm gradually improving.

Also I'm working on uploading 5 more songs so yes i will keep it coming :)

MIDI музыка LFG!!!!
Я обожаю MIDI треки, и у тебя получился очень прикольный трек! У него напряжения энергия, и атмосфера приключение. Трек постоянно куда то меняется и остается интересным с начало до конца. Супер работа, так держать!

спасибо за поддержку!
