[The Other Voice In My Head]

Haunting yet beautiful. It sounds really great! I really like the voices and colors you used. I all comes together to make a really great chill piece. Great variety and phattt bass boiiiiiiiii.
(Also how'd you do those voices I'd love to know they sound so cool)
But yeah, I really enjoyed listening to this. Great stuff friendo

[Nostalgia [Hardstyle]]

Hello!
This song description is incredibly accurate. This reminds me of a song from the early 2000s. I liked the melody, and I enjoyed listening to it which is an accomplishment considering I am not a huge fan of hardstyle. There were a few mastering quirks that took me out of the song, I thought the kick and snare were a little quiet before the drop and when the drop happened the song felt a little too washed out by the bass. But if you were to fix these issues we would have quite the engaging nostalgic song on our hands! Kudos! You've earned yourself a fan!
Pros:
-Nostalgic Sound
-Fun to listen to
Cons:
-Mixing/Mastering could use a little work
Keep on keepin! This sounds good!

Truephoric responds:

Thank you for your review, I'm glad you like it!
Of the mastering issues I am aware, I'm trying to fix these, but mastering I find the most difficult part of producing. I'll watch some mastering tutorials.

[Diamonds Beach]

Hello!
I thought the song was pretty good! For some reason the song reminded me of a sound similar to Deadmau5. I thought the construction of the song was good, there was a lot of variety and kept me invested the entire time. If there was one problem I had, it would be that I was rather indifferent to the voice part that came in at 00:48. I thought that it was a little pitchy and I wasn't too huge of a fan, but other than that you've got a solid song here!
Keep up the great work!
Pros:
-Great Instrumentation
-Variety
Cons:
-Vocals

Sunny0911 responds:

Hey Tera, thank you for the honest opinion =) The voice is something i have to work on, its the first track i recorded any voice so i have to work on that. THANKS! =) that motivates me to work harder!

[Magicman]

Hello! Welcome to Newgrounds!
I enjoyed the song, it was a nice listen! I liked the melody, it was nice and rather interesting! I liked the buildup it was well constructed and the drop was good! I like that it was more melody than glitch. I am rather indifferent to the bass synth that comes in before drops, I like it but I feel like it could be something better. I really like the variety in the song and if there was one thing that I would recommend it would be to turn the hi hat down, it's a little too piercing and I feel it stands out a little too much.
This was a great start on here! Hyped for the EP!
Pros:
-Good variety, Fun to listen to
-Good buildups and drops
Cons:
-Questionable Synth Choice
-Piercing Hi-Hat

SoundscapeMusic responds:

Thanks for taking the time to leave a review on my track, it really means a lot! As a response to some of your criticisms, specifically the cons, my questionable synth choice, i think you were referring to the plucks in the intro of the song. Those were made using GMS and were meant to have a kind of old 2012 Savant feel, but I guess not a lot of people like Savant :P
As for the piercing hi-hat, I do have a reputation for boosting high end on sounds too much, so I'll do better with that next time.
And as for your EP hype, it's already out! Here's a link if you want to take a listen: https://soundcloud.com/soundscape-740568687/sets/wandering-ep

[Synthesize Me (V1)]

What a jazzy beat! Loving this!
I think this is great, I think there were a few small quirks that kept it from being flawless (in theory).
The variety of this song was fantastic. I loved every second of it, whatever album you're doing you've already pulled me in. The melody was fantastic and really got me grooving. For me personally that is what makes or breaks a song is if the melody is good. (Which here it's freakin fantastic). My problems were primarily in the mastering/mixing compartment. I thought high ends were good in my opinion. What really got me was that the drums were a little quiet during the drop but other than that.
MMM.
Great.
Pros:
-Great freakin melody
-Great variety and sound
Cons:
-Small mixing/mastering quirks keep this from being tenouttaten
I'm very interested in what is to come! In the meantime, take my follow. You deserve it.

ConnorGrail responds:

Thanks for the feecback!
This project is a ways out still, but I would suggest keeping up on YouTube and stuff if you want to hear more!

[KrattKing - Colorblind]

You have a unique sound and I admire that! Sadly due to this it'll lead to reactions like the one below me. The song itself is quite interesting I picture this being used in a modern art show with sculptures made of recyclables. The instruments you've used remind me of those videos where people use sounds of non musical objects to make a unique sound experience. I enjoy that. I really enjoy the glitchiness of the song, I'm a sucker for stuff like that. I will say if there's one problem I have with the song it's the lack of a melody or at least a distinct one. Not all songs need one, but I feel like if this song were to have one that stands out it would lead to creating more variety for the song. Granted listening to the song I would have a hard time placing a melody over this but I felt that it was needed in some form or another.
Overall, I thought it was a solid piece.
Pros:
-Unique Sound
-Glitchy Beats
-Good Mixing
Cons:
-Lack of distinct melody makes the song lack in variety
-Sound may not cater to everyone
This is a great foundation, and you've earned yourself a new fan. Cheers!
Hopefully this review helps!

What? (Calming & Ambient)

If you want to remix any of my tracks / collab / or ask something, than just say in the PMs.

[Whirlwinds]

Nice Song! I really liked the instrumentation! I would like to recommend that you should change the genre, it is electronic but this doesn't really feel too much like house to me and more like techno.
I like the piano riff that goes throughout the entire song, it's really nice! I do feel that the loop ends rather suddenly and very noticeably. When it looped at 00:15 it was quite obvious, I'm not sure if it was an artistic choice as listening to the rest of the song it is obvious that the other parts of the song build onto it. I really liked climax/drop of the piece at 02:18, it was really nice! I personally would've liked a little more melodic variety but overall everything else was super solid!
You've earned yourself a fan!

SevenSouls responds:

thx man! ^_^

[The Wrath of an Unrelenting Frycook]

Wow this is really great!
8/8 pretty gr8 m8

Cacola responds:

thank m808! I just needed to fill the gap between actual songs, so I figured I'd put this up, probably should've gone up earlier.

[my friends are no help]

I love glitchy sounding music so this is just fantastic and lovely on the ears! I love it!

johnfn responds:

Thanks TeraVex! This would indeed be your song then. :)
