[Morning Adventure! - VGM]

Sounds very morning-y and cheery, I think you got something good going on over here! I see you mentioned Stardew Valley, and it really seems like something that would fit perfectly into that kind of game. You should keep making music as this sounds awesome :)

GundorSound responds:

Thanks!

[Make it]

Such a nice beautiful melody :)
I like the way the song progresses a lot. The melodic line really helps to progress into around 1:12, where stuff gets much heavier. The bass and immersion in the piece is also astronomical, I really enjoy it! Keep making music, I'm sure you'll go far ^^

Thank you :D

[Zpectre - Past]

I love the more melodic part that starts towards 0:31, that house piano really nailed the "house" feeling. The bass was very metallic which is probably perfect for the future house genre. Very immersive, keep it up :)

Zpectre responds:

thank you really bro :'3❤️

What an exciting and immersive piece! The sound work on your song is great, from all the build ups to the wubs to the bass and percussion, I think you did a very very good job here. I find it rare that someone is able to pull off a song, especially in the dubstep genre, that sounds like a whole story in audio form. I really hope you keep making more stuff :)

Wow what an amazing build up leading to 01:12! This goes hard, and definitely very synthy. Love the percussion you have, and the long intro. The main lead is also great, all of this stuff sounds very well put together. I hope you get a good mark on that school project!

[Lost...]

This is a very beautiful piece, and it definitely gives off the feeling of being lost. However I feel the mixing/panning didn't do it justice; sometimes the sound sounds like it clips (has a harsh noise) at louder segments, and the panning of the whole song seems to be coming out the right ear much more than the left. I feel if you'd be able to fix these things, this song would be much more enjoyable! Anyways, great work, and keep going!

Thanks for the feedback, my eight-legged friend! I might update it when I have time, possibly later today.

Edit: I edited it, recorded another track at a lower volume as to *try* to prevent more clipping. Also fixed the panning, should be more balanced now.

Nice track! You have some good sounds in there. The mixing also sounded pretty neat and the chord progression was nice. I also really enjoyed the arp you used! However, I feel some more variety is needed, as sometimes it sounds a little too empty. 0:54 to around 01:37 sounded like it could maybe use a little more? Regardless you did a good job, keep going!

[why do i always have to be the bad guy]

Ooh this is so nice and jumpy! I love the all the blips and arps, and the progression is pretty neat too. Sounds very keygen like, which is probably my favorite genre of chiptune haha

I also really love the build up to the part at 2:15, it was pretty well done and a good use of percussion. Keep it up with more music!
