[Trajectory]

Really interesting progression you got going on here, but I really like it! The gates make this so fun to listen to, and the blips all over the place really help with the dubstep feel. The bass is great too! I think this is just really good work in general, keep it up :)

[Qshunt - Still Got Time]

This is very intense, it sounds like something that could play during some kind of car chase mission in a game. I really like it's high energy and how deep the bass is. The melody also varies a lot to keep it interesting throughout the song. I really like what you did here, so good job! Keep it coming :)

EDIT: After your edit to the end, it still sounds good to me!

Qshunt responds:

Thanks so much for the kind words!

If you have another listen, I slightly changed the ending part. Let me know if it still sounds good to you!

Thanks again.

EDIT: Thanks!

[THE CAVE]

Very relaxing, it feels almost as if you're relaxing in the cave itself :)
I like the plucks, they help add to the mood, while the little flute just helps make a happier and calming feeling. The pads add a feeling of mysteriousness while the bass adds a little edge. I think it's really beautiful and you should definitely be proud of it! Keep up the awesome work :D

Pan01 responds:

OMG thank you so much, this is such a cute review :D

[I Love This Place]

When the bass kicks in shortly after 10 minutes in it sounds really nice! And then the calming ending really suits the atmosphere you have going from the beginning. It's a song that feels relieving and happy. It's also full of soul. It's just beautiful in many different ways, too much to explain haha. Keep up the awesome work :)

NtGm889 responds:

Thank you. It's my favourite song on the whole album.

[Millnnium]

Very interesting song, I like how it goes from soft to dark and then to other different directions. The progression is also pretty versatile and it never sits in one place. The instrumentation choice is also very rich and beautiful. Great job, keep it up :D

Aetherous responds:

Thanks, Dude!! I've been having so much fun making music this summer!!!

[What once was]

I'm not a fan of hip hop usually but I really took a liking to this! It feels relaxing and calming somehow while also being upbeat. Kind of hopeful too and even a little nostalgic. Really nice stuff, keep it up :D

GeminiGemini responds:

Thanks :D

[Floating on Life (OST Equilibrium)]

Очень интересная музыка. Моя любимая часть начинается в 3:37. Я обожаю шифт в тональностье, особенно под конец. Давно не слышал такой трэнс :)

Буду рад слушать следущи трек!

[Too Far Up]

Man now this sounds perfect for a dark space environment, I think you nailed this one right on the head. It's not sad or depressing, not happy or exciting, just suspenseful and cold. You don't expect any turns it can take, you aren't sure of what's around, and so on. The drones that appear throughout and drag on are perfect for the buildup of these emotions. Perfect stuff, keep it up!

[Frozen Industry]

This sounds like a very industrial ambient mix, not something I personally hear to often but I really like the execution of this. This song is super tense, keeps you on the edge and you don't really expect any build ups or random noise here and there which really pushes the feeling you're going for. The percussion is just perfect for this track. Amazing work in general, keep it up :D

[It Was Supposed To Be Simple...]

Very beautiful, definitely very sad. The way you used your woodwinds helped kind of lead the emotional part of the melody while the strings emphasized it. The slow down at the end was also really good to drive home the point. Great work, keep it coming!

Rhombys responds:

Thank you very much for your feedback, and for you to take the time to listen!
