[-Encounter-]

Ayyy congrats on front page! Looove this track! Melody is really catchy, and I love the Sega Genesis-esque synths, I'm a sucker for this kind of production! Really really great mix, lots of dynamic contrast and melodic variety which keeps the piece really engaging through the 4:45 runtime! Favorite part was probably 2:44 when the piano and orchestral came in. I'm just a sucker for piano and orchestral elements. Amazing!

Preds responds:

Thank you! Glad you liked it. I think making a Videogame-Orchestral song was a good idea haha. Again, thank you for the awesome words!

[Calm Seas]

I like the vibe, it's realllly quiet though! Maybe adding a compressor/expander would help that a lil bit!

MusicByMoMo responds:

Thank you! Yeah, I noticed that my past few songs have been very quiet and I've been trying to fix it. I'll try those methods for my next song!

[Ilysian - Moss]

I LOVE this. The mellow lo-fi-esque intro into the beautiful drop is such a good vibe! Dynamic contrast is a wonderful attention as well! I love the synth that comes in at 3:15, so wonderful. Really, really great piece! Excited to hear your future pieces :)

Ilysian responds:

AAHH !! thank you so much !

[Aggressive]

That's a thiccc bass! I like your extreme dynamic contrast!.. It might be a little too sudden for some ears though. Be weary of levels! I feel like it's a little too loud and a little harsh on the ears, turning the gain down a dB or 2 might fix that though! Also, to add on to dynamics, I feel like this tune is at 10000% all the time (I know it's called Aggressive but this might just be personal taste here). It may be nice to add a little melodic intro to it to build up to the drop so it's more impactful instead of the drop being just the entire song. I like your wub patches though, classic dubstep! Good stuff!

[2019 - NativeMaker]

Nice piece! I love your piano sounds, they are wonderful! I like that reverse sounding sample you use throughout the piece! The countermelody that comes in around :45 has a little bit of dissonance against the main flute which I'm unsure is intentional or not, but it does sound better by itself around the 1:20 mark. I like that sample/effect you use at the end of the piece, it's quite pleasant to the ears! Great stuff!

NativeMaker responds:

Well i try my best but the problem is always a little things 😆 I will some experience since 1 years ahahaha 😄

[Peppy]

Wow, just wow. Absolutely incredible! Melody is incredible, mixing and synth choices are straight up fuckin amazing and there's just so much good about this. What a treat to the ears, and ugh that CHORD PROGRESSION! So good, I can't even put into words how good this is. Great job!

SkaydenMusic responds:

I really appreciated your opinion on my song, thank you so much :D. The mix isn't perfect 'cause I'm a beginner in that domain x). The chord progression was inspired by "Dark Cat - Bubble Tea" and the intro (ambience piano that becomes the music) by "Xtrullor - Catharsis"
Thx again for your feedback, it was really pleasant to read <3 I hope you'll like the next two tracks of my EP :)
