[EXISTENCE 2]

Ooh, another awesome track! For some reason reminds me a bit of the Run 3 soundtrack haha. I love the mix of chaos and just beautiful melody and variation. The song has a great flow, combination of different beats, and crisp textures. The mood it gives me is just kind of spaced out, relaxed, and happy. So once again, awesome work, keep it up!!

Spxro responds:

Ayoo thanks, you're one of the first person who gives me feedback like this ! I really appreciate your review on my track, thanks alot !

[Snowflake Celebration]

Very cozy sounding song and makes me think of happy things :)

It definitely feels like it fits the season, and the light instruments you used fit the image of falling snow really nicely. The synths in general have a cool slight pitch wobble too; it feels like just the right amount of wobble to make it calm without creating too much energy. And the melody is very cheery. Great stuff, keep it up!!

MihaP responds:

Thanks. I'm glad it makes you feel that way since I was going for that wholesome happy vibe :)

[Just Breath (Melancholic Ambience II)]

Beautiful song :D

It already starts out very nice with the pads, the rhythm also feels like steady deep breaths; so the song title matches nicely too. When the bells/mallets come in at around a minute in, the track delivers this great kind of refreshing feeling where deeper relaxation just kicks in. The progression is very gentle which further fits with the theme I think you were going for; yet it still varies enough to maintain interest and attention. Awesome stuff, keep it up :D

GooblesMusic responds:

Thank you so much!! This advice is very good and I hope you enjoy my future works! This is part of the Melancholic Ambience album, there is going to be a few more coming. . . cant wait to show you. Thanks so much once again, it means a lot! :)

[deep cut, blistering moon]

Man you're really good at making alien sounding music! While this one sounds much more experimental, it still has a pretty cool edge to it. Kind of like at the core of some alien ship or deep in some alien factory with all the heavy noises you put in this track. The textures were really nice, and the melody was intriguing. Keep making awesome stuff like always!

Lirrezzz responds:

thank you so so much :)))

[Cloud Mind]

This song sounds so chilly.. but also dreamy! Definitely sounds like you're high up in the clouds, maybe in the mountains or something. I love all the instruments with the long release/reverb effects on them, it really helps instill this ethereal mood and make things more dreamy and relaxed. The ending is also really good, it's subtle and lets the listener off gently. Keep up the great work!

Akekonchik responds:

Thank you very much for such a positive review!

[Vista Sounds - Dear Diary II]

Nice, calm, pretty, and magical! You make great use of instruments together to create emotion and intrigue. The song sounds very hopeful too, and kind of curious. I really like the build up you have going from start to finish as well. Keep up the great work!

Vista-Sound13 responds:

I always appreciate you leaving detailed reviews, even if your reviews are laconic yet upbeat. :)

[humming to sulfur rains]

This is a really cool ambient track! It just sounds so peaceful, but also has a bit of energy and action in it. Definitely feels like you're just on some alien planet watching the rain or something. All the instruments are also very beautiful and mesh together super nice. Also the end is really cool, how everything just starts to kind of bleed out and blend. Amazing work once again, keep it coming!!

Lirrezzz responds:

thank you so much! I appreciate long comments like this, thank you for being so nice! :)

[house of cards]

Very mellow :)
I like it instantly from how it starts off, it just feels floaty and like you're in the clouds. It also just feels very happy and dreamy, and definitely relaxing. I love the bells you used, the round synth leads, and the percussion beat fits perfectly. Amazing work once again, keep it up :D

GuitARBEn responds:

Thank you so much!

[From you]

This song is very calming and also has very deep tones at the same time. Kind of feels like you are in the depths of something... like space, deep underwater, a cave, etc.. I love how the bassy, low sounds resonate and create this beautiful vibration, while the more lighter instruments accompany them. The melody that appears is just so nice and can easily lull someone to sleep. The beginning of the song also has a very nice slow introduction, just like the ending has a nice slow descent back to silence. Absolutely beautiful work here, keep it up!!

Spxro responds:

Thanks alot ! Feedback really helps me and ill keep it up !

[Commerce Among the Clouds]

Another nice and chill song, also got me spacing out for a bit :)
I once again love the guitar articulation in this, it helps with the relaxing feeling of the song. The space of the song is really nice too, feels roomy. The slow percussion helps with the calming feelings as well. The melody was really pretty, and I love the pads that layer over it. Amazing work again, keep it coming!!

Pondererer responds:

Yo thanks boss. If I’m on schedule, another should should come ‘round tmr
