[Tears From The Moon]

Something about the natural/non VST live recorded guitars made this song extra special. It sounds very calming, and the part that starts at 1:00 really kicks in this emotional moment in. Sounds like something you can dance to, or just have playing in the back of some night/relaxed environment. Very unique and beautiful work, keep it coming!

[Huenu - Sunflower]

This sounds so happy and pumped up! I love all the effects you have and different transitions you've included. Nothing dwells too long at any part, and things change just at the right time. The main lead is very fitting into the rest of the same song and has a pretty nice melody. I really think you did great with this, keep up the awesome work!

[Eiffel 65 - I'm Blue (SpeTheof Remix)]

This really has your classic lead/melody signature on it, I love this remix! Never heard you do much drumstep before though so that's pretty cool. I love how the melody wiggles so much the most probably lol

Can't wait to hear more from you :)

SpeTheof responds:

Thank you so much! it means a lot ^_^

[Marble Racing (Incredimarble)]

That sounds very nostalgic for some reason, but also very well composed! Great job on this, I love the arps you used too (really emphasizes the "rolling feeling"), and the pads really help build space. This is a great track, perfect for its use, and I hope you keep making more awesome work :)

[Gates of Time]

You have an amazing build up, and really beautiful piano progression in here. Definitely sounds like something that could work for a level! My only issue is that the song sounds like it's about to go somewhere but kind of stops abruptly, maybe if it was a little longer it would be really great! Keep up the great work ;)

Thx for commenting!

[seven o'clock groove]

Sounds pretty funky, sounds like something that would fit perfectly in a retro style video game dialogue scene. I love the main instruments a lot, and the bass is definitely very groovy! My only suggestions is that towards the end it feels a little loud with the harmonica instrument, and maybe the pads dwell for a little long, but otherwise it's a great piece! Keep it up :)

thanks for reviewing! i'm glad you enjoyed :)

[Vista Sounds - Take]

I don't usually hear people try to mimic the GBA style, so this sure is interesting. I love the jazzy little feeling you got, with that very classic bass style sound. The whole thing sounds like it came out of an ancient speaker, it's really cool! I love the leads you used as well, they really fit for the whole mood. Great work, keep it up :)

Vista-Sound13 responds:

Those are some kind words you have there, buddy, and I am glad you enjoyed this track, so thank you! :)

[DJ Spyroof - On A Journey]

I can definitely feel the inspirations in this song, this sounds so nostalgic! A lot of classic Basshunter bass styled sound in there, as well as the DJ Splash style progression. This just feels like an overall great mix of classic dance. I really like you bringing back this kind of style with a bit of your original twist in it, keep it going :D

[[EDM / FUTURE HOUSE] Snow Day]

This was very interesting, and I can definitely tell where you were trying to go with this :)

The piano progression was really good and the background plucks really added to the harmony. The drums were also very well placed for this kind of song. My only suggestions would be to add some bass, as it sounds a little empty without. I'd also say that a lot of the noises seem to clip especially the main lead and piano. Maybe also add a longer ending as well?

Great job regardless, and I hope you keep making more!

Berto8008 responds:

Thanks for your feedback! I agree some bass would be nice, but I had some trouble making some. I’ll try to in my next song!

[Night]

This sounds so nice, I wish it was longer! The intro led into the bass/percussion part perfectly, and when that middle part came in the song flow was perfect. The night feeling was definitely present as it was also very calm and relaxing. Keep it up with the awesome stuff :)

NightLover responds:

tysm for that TwT
