[-Aeropolis-]

This sounds awesome! Very sonic genesis era like. Cool progression, cool 90's effects, and a whole new feel. This could so be in a game. Keep up the awesome work!

Preds responds:

Thank you! Will do! ^-^

[The Forgotten Star]

This is some great techno! I love the gates you use here and there, it's pretty cool. The synths are very suitable for techno too. Keep up the great work :)

TekNoTaku responds:

Thank's for the support. And for listening to my music...I am really grateful.

[Soledad]

This sounds very calming and interesting, great work! Very interesting instruments you use and the progression is quite unique. The piano probably works the best in here in my opinion. Great work, keep it up :D

AlvaroMorenoU responds:

thanks, its a very old song, is played by pulse so it doesnt go perfectly with the tempo. Making percusssion on an electric piano is hard hahah.

[(chillout) nocturnal]

This sounds very sweet, I like it! It's calming but the drum beat gives it a bit of excitement. The tempo of the melody is slow while the drum melody feels twice as fast to keep up, which is perfect. It just gives me very nice and happy thoughts and feelings :)

Keep up the awesome work!

[Stratosphere]

Очень интересный стиль! Мне нравится комбинация стиля Dimrain47 и Waterflame, но здесь точно есть куча твоей оригинальности. Басс супер, синтнезаторы тоже очень хорошо звучат. Так держать дальше :D

Hexelbit responds:

Для меня большая честь получить оценку от музыканта такого уровня как вы! Огромное спасибо! Я очень рад что вам понравилось! :)

[Melancholy(collaboration)]

This definitely feels a little melancholy, the soundscapes in this are really beautiful. Felt like it wasn't just house, was like house-trance maybe? Either way, it has a very rich electronic instrumentation and the arpeggios really help accelerate the feeling and ambience. It feels almost as if you can kinda "fall" into this song from how immersive it is. I love it, great work and keep it up :)

Ziondiac responds:

Thanks for the feedback and vote.

[It's His Lullaby]

The song has a very interesting tone shift half way through. I really like the beginning half as it sounds very lullaby like, and then the other half sounds a little ominous, very interesting! The dynamic changes in the second half make the song sound more lively, as if it was performed by hand. Great work, keep it up :)

[Metal Frog, Machine Fly]

I love me some chopped up samples haha. This sounds great! I like the dark-ish feeling and progression. When the frog came in that was really random but honestly made the song more interesting if anything. The mixing on this is also honestly pretty great, so I think this is overall a very great, impactful and unique dubstep track! Could honestly work well for some kind of action sequence as well. Keep up the awesome work :)

[(OTG) Cycle Of The Urban Sun]

The way you described the making of this piece is very interesting, and it's definitely not something a lot of people do. Looking at the picture helps me visualize the mood you got while writing this piece, which is pretty rare :)

The actual track, what can I say it's very very progressive which is awesome! So much different pitch shifts, pitch bends even, and the whole song is almost like telling a short story or sequence of events. The instruments varied throughout creating a very beautiful mixed up piece. I just generally really enjoyed this, and I hope you make more :D

Codefreq responds:

Thank you very much! I plan on it. :D

[UF 13: Mighty Prayers]

This song really sounds like it's all about wrath of some angry deity creature. I think you definitely nailed it story wise :)

The strings are very beautiful and emotional, suspenseful and hopeful. Battling along to this song in a game would just be perfect! The brass is also very classic and nostalgic, but also helps illustrate this whole important/royal feeling in the theme. Amazing work, keep it coming!
