[B4You - Stellar Echo]

This feels like very classic trance, I love it! The slower startup, the nostalgic synths, and the very pretty melody all combine to create an awesome track. Really reminded me of workout music that would play in the gym when I was a kid haha. Amazing work, keep it up!!

BlackVen0m4you responds:

Thanks man! I love old school trance, and I know exactly what you mean, I am 39 years old

[Orbit]

Very exciting, happy, uplifting melody! Listening to this feels like floating through space at high speeds and seeing a bunch of cool stuff as I pass by. My favorite parts are with the piano in between heavier sections. Great work, keep it up :D

whymsical responds:

thank you!!! i really had fun making this one, glad you like it!!!

[Project Fate - Affixiation!!]

This definitely has some boss battle energy to it! Kind of feels like impending doom, but with a steady pace that feels slightly hopeful too. The progression of the main repeating part is pretty interesting, with the slower introduction of all the instruments until they all play at once for a bit. Keep up the great work!

MastaPowa7 responds:

Hey, thanks! Really appreciate it,

[Military Santa]

This song is fun and dancey, I like it! It has a lot of those jingle/christmas instruments that fit the theme of Santa, but also a great energy that gives it a battle like feeling. The progression was great and varied itself up a lot too. Awesome stuff, keep it coming!

DancarMar responds:

Thank you very much for your comment and for your very professional review :D

[Rebirth]

Very interesting cycle of genres through the song! It kind of really helps match the name of the track as well, as it sounds like going through multiple phases/paths which would probably fit the theme of rebirth well. The mixing was great, and the instruments were picked very well for the composition. Awesome work here, keep it up!

ZexuZeus responds:

I like your detailed feedback and how you understand and feel what I wanted to convey

[Further]

Sounds kinda adventurey and happy, I like it :)
The use of softer instruments kinda helps it feel more light and a little magical maybe, and the way the song progresses makes it sound like a fun little journey. The choice of percussion was also pretty interesting, as the drumline sounds unusual but fun and fitting. Great work as always, keep it up :D

Thanks

[Holy]

The part leading up to the first drop sounded a lot like classic dance music, it was interesting to hear the more modern EDM style afterwards and then cycling back to the dance stuff! It also sounds a bit more unique compared to classic EDM with some of the extra layering and instruments you have used. The mixing is great as well. Keep up the great work :)

Raylectro responds:

thank you for the positive feedback, it's nice to see good comments about my music

[Dem0n1x - Butterfly]

As soon as I heard the guitar I instantly got Robert Miles vibes, really cool! It still sounds very original though both in terms of melody and how you decided to do the progression. It's very colorful, uplifting, happy, and maybe a little spacey too. I love how with time you added more instruments and layers, it made the song sound more and more complete with time. Sounds completely like awesome classic trance, it's amazing!! Keep it up :D

Dem0n1x responds:

Wow!
Thanks octopus58, you made my day xD

[Newgrounds]

Я думаю это первый раз я слышу твою музыку с словами. Обычно я слушаю музыку только без слов, но я стараюсь разнообразить. Лирика прикольная, и слова очень добрые :)

А мелодия как обычно супер! Всегда рад слышать твои новые треки. Так держать!!

G2961 responds:

Спасибо! <3

[Magic Shuffle]

This track has such a weird interesting vibe, I love it! It gives me video game casino level feelings, but also tropical/beach, city, fancy, and other feelings as well. It's such a strange fusion of so many things, that it becomes this super unique blend that stands out super well on its own. The mixing is perfect, everything stands out super well and the energy is so upbeat! I also like how the progression keeps evolving into more new stuff and new territories. Sometimes even slight genre changes like around 2:15 when it turns a little dubsteppy for a few seconds. This is overall amazing, keep up the awesome work!

ItsOceanus responds:

That means a lot seriously! I really appreciate the kind words, super glad you enjoy my work thank you! ill be definitely be making more things in this lane in the future💖
