That was so relaxing, I had to stop myself from dozing off haha ^^;
I liked the sine like plucks you used, it made everything feel very calm. The delayed notes also kinda put on this sleepy feeling in the beginning, like a nice feeling of disorientation. And when the more reverberated stuff kicks in the space all of a sudden expands far and wide. I could analyze so much more but just know that it's an amazing piece. Great work, and keep it coming!

This is so beautiful, I love it! Sucks that the collab is dying, they'd really benefit having such a great track as part of the work. It's very atmospheric and fits the games theme very well. Calming and just relaxing all around. I love the occasional unusual percussion like flicks and clicks of ceramic or whatever (can't really tell exactly what it is but its cool!). I hope you make more amazing tracks, keep it up :D

This sounds very exciting and lively, definitely very dancy too! I like the combination of chiptune instruments with some modern elements. The ending is also very sweet and a great way to end the track, it feels like everything calms down from all the excitement. But yeah in general this is a great track, keep up the great work!

[Relaxing waves | Royalty Free Instrumental]

Definitely very relaxing :)
But what's interesting, is you gave it a very resonating feeling. When I listen to it I feel like my whole chest vibrates which is really cool. The melody is very beautiful in general even if repetitive, and the kalimba was a great choice to emphasize the calmness. Great work, keep it coming :D

Thank you very much for your message, it means a lot.

That drop is great! I love how impactful and crazy it gets, and all the fun glitchy noises. The bass is growling and low which is perfect for this style, and the synths sound very clean. Great work, keep it up!

[Wolfgang Miakoda & THESUS - Opium]

This sounds very cinematic for trance, I like it! It's unusual in all the right ways. The progression of the track is very dramatic and unpredictable. Yet the song is groovy throughout. The mixing is great and so is the mastering too. Great work, keep it up :)

[Disconnecting]

Not sure what's going on but there's just a 16 second sound clip instead of the song, did you upload the right file?

[Wondrous Disaster]

This kinda reminded me of Hang Castle from Sonic Heroes, it's a very similar vibe but still a very original song! It's a unique clash of styles that just happen to actually work pretty well together. So great work, keep it coming!

Many thanks for the feedback!

[TimPie - Toxins]

Oh yeah I love acid basslines!!!
This is really good though in general, I love the buildup, the progression, and the mix of synths and percussion you used. The space feels expanding as the song goes on with different reverberated effects. And the gate that kicks in at 1:50 is just divine. Love this to bits, keep making more amazing music!

Thanks!! I'll try my best :)

[Warkauze - Infinite Dreams]

Very interesting and growly song. I like how it starts out and leads into a very hard melodic sequence. The bass really pops in this one too. You also use your synths and pads very well to help with the space and atmosphere. Great work, keep it up :)

Warkauze responds:

Thank you!
