[Beyond Horizons]

This whole song sounds like a very cool journey and does a great job with all the impacts! The melody is beautiful, and has a nice introduction. The whole song sounds very progressive from beginning to end with no sudden changes, and overall sounds unique throughout. The instruments you decided to use also increase the uniqueness of the piece. Great work, keep it up!

[Data Love]

This sounds very peaceful and glitchy at the same time, a cool combination :)
I love all the little clicks, impacts, and bell noises that accent the main melody which is very beautiful in itself. The piece also does a great job at conveying emotion and atmosphere, perfect for a game or animation. Keep up the awesome work!

[Mixed Nuts In Space]

Am I glad to hear another new track from you! I see this is in a slightly newer style that I haven't heard from you before, yet with a lot of the unique elements from your past pieces that make it feel personal. I love the ambiences, the clicks, all the percussion that brings this song more to life along with the beautiful instrumentation. This is super chill and very relaxing. I can't wait to hear more new stuff from you!

[Spectacle]

I can hear your signature style in this as always, very nice :)
I really enjoyed the more happy/classic dance feeling you included in this, it's always very nostalgic but sounds new in its own way. Intro is also very cool, keep it up :D

Thanks χταπόδι 🐙

[Shanlix - Euphoria [Melodic Drumstep]]

Wow you start off hard with this one, nice! I like the synths you used for this piece overall, but it feels very powerful and happy. A cool combo I think would be nice to see more often. There are very interesting transitions overall, and the song flows very nicely! You're clearly skilled in electronic music and mixing too, so keep up the great work :)

Shanlix responds:

Thank you, I will!

[Random Audio 003]

Very soothing for a trap like, I like it! Even though the chords repeat, I like the variety you use to keep it from being the same for the whole song. I also really like the specific rain ambience you used, it's so soft, it makes me feel relaxed haha. Great job, keep up the good work!

[Moeped - Indulging (Lo-Fi)]

This lo-fi track has a very interesting melody, nice job :)
Love how that little piano comes in around 0:48, but also just the whole atmosphere of the track in general. Kinda even wish it was a little longer because it sounded so nice as it was building up! Your use of ambience was very well done. Keep it up!

tbjrty responds:

Tysm for the feedback! I'll work on making my tracks longer! :D

[Wildcard]

This takes so much twists and turns, very cool for a dubstep song! I love your use of the occasional guitar, and the mix up of synths you use for your composition. It also sounds very mid 2010s, so the album is very fitting haha. Keep up the awesome stuff :)

Th3TwisteD responds:

Thank You for the positive feedback !
Every track is gonna get more and more 2010s-ish.. hehehe.. I just wanted to make more of these Blaze, Sub.Sound, Dec3mber, Zomboy, Killher era tracks, and I hope I don't disappoint ! :)

[Select Screen Rock]

Very interesting. Sounds like early 2000's fighting game music, would work very well as a loop. Reverb is sick on this one, and I like your use of strings for an otherwise heavy piece. In this case, I like the use of repetitiveness since it's for a small menu, but I still really enjoy how even then you added variety to make it sound even better. Great job again, can't wait for more!

Vultyrex responds:

Thank you. It's surprisingly a good fallback until I create or choose whatever sound I want to ultimately use on a select screen. Figured I'd give this one out. :)

[Acidic Sewers]

Wow! Very immersive ambience you got going throughout the track here, and the mix is awesomely clean. You're using very nice sounds here too, sounds very gloomy and just overall acidic. Could definitely work for some kind of fight theme as you said. Keep up the great work :)

Vultyrex responds:

Thank you. I try to capture the location/setting and convert it to a sound that'll make you think that's where you are.
