[Night]

Very nice ambient track! When the drop happens, everything feels both so pretty and also sleepy, which is fitting for a track called Night. I wish it was a little longer haha but I really love what you have here, keep up the good work!

whymsical responds:

thanks!

[In sight]

I think you definitely got the feeling down! It does sound uncanny, but also just energetic and fun. I even think it'd fit in a video game, during some kind of spooky action sequence! Great work, keep it up :D

Orenge1 responds:

Glad you like it! :D

Yeah that was actually precisely my goal. To make it uncanny but still listenable. And the action sequence is exactly what I thought of too. Great to see that you think it worked out! :)

[Beyond (Perimeter Theme)]

Great cinematic song! The drop around 1:12 was pretty cool with the clappy percussion and stuff following after. It sounds like music that would play in some kind of mountainous jungley place maybe, so the picture you put in the description feels like a good pick haha. I love all the changes throughout the progression too, it makes the song sound more like a journey instead of anything cyclic. Great work, keep it up!

PixxlMan responds:

Thanks!

[Malware]

Oooh the drop was really nice! The intro leading up to it was great, but the drop itself definitely has this weird hacky/comp music vibe so it fits great. I love how crisp everything sounds too, and all the chirps and glitchy noises are awesome. Great work, keep it up!!

As soon as the saxes kicked in, it felt so good! The whole song has a very relaxed atmosphere, and for some reason gave me a 90s ish feeling too because of the way certain instruments sounded (especially the sax, I am probably wrong but it sounded a lot like the KORG saxes from the M1). The flow of the song is great, it keeps moving to different pretty parts, and feels like the sunset is slowly passing with time. Percussion was perfect for the energy the song was going for too, it's there but it's not too much which is just right. Amazing work once again, keep it coming!!

avoset responds:

tysm!! yea i was going for an 80s/90s synthwave feel with this one, although the sax is just from one of the stock plugins in fl studio

[electroCUTEd!]

This sounds so fun, I love it! There is a great happy energy, it's very dancey, and the progression takes a lot of fun turns too. Like the part in the middle being a sudden tempo shift didn't phase me at all, it just sounded cool and added a lot of character to the song before speeding up again and going back to being fun and chaotic. Just all together the song has a great feels good energy. Awesome work, keep it up!!

GlitchCatMusic responds:

thank you so much!! I'm really glad you liked it !! :D

[Years]

This is a fun house song! I love the pumping bass, and the drops are pretty impactful. The drops are great too! Nice stuff, keep it up :D

[Speed-BMP]

This was really crazy and chaotic, and definitely a fun listen! I like the weird atmosphere you went for, it definitely provided a unique character. The house samples clashing with jazz was so cool too... and the progression kept going somewhere new, making sure to keep the song interesting from start to finish! Great job, keep it up :)

YubaOfficial responds:

Thanks man, I appreciate the feedback on it, it's my best one atm, or at least I think it is

[wanna be innocent]

This song has an interesting atmosphere throughout, kind of just chill and relaxing, and hazy but happy. The instruments you used were pretty interesting too, they all fit in the 80s/90s soundscape. Great work as always, keep it up :)

[Neodymium]

I thought this will be a funny magnet song lol but instead it's a great EDM track! Really reminds me of mid 2010s EDM stuff, really cool how close to the style you got. The instruments are great and vibrant, the melody is happy, and the song stays interesting by varying throughout. The main leads you use sometimes for the more intense sections are also pretty powerful! Great work, keep it up :)
