[Skyper EXE - Neon Dreams (Vibe Electro)]

im not a fan of EDM and dubstep stuff, mainly because I think they all sound the same, are completely unoriginal and lack the beautiful emotional aspects that what I consider "real" music has. But fundamentally this is a good track. Well done.

SkyperEXE responds:

Thank you very much for your feedback!:)

[S0MBRA & Ojela - Pressure Pulse]

Erm I find these sonic workings to be of satisfactory nature! ☝️🤓

S0MBRASOUNDS responds:

Excellent. I'm elated to receive this information!

[Hall of the Pumpkin King]

Tangerine responds:

Thank you my friend!

[Ice Slush]

WE MAKING IT THROUGH JAMUARY WITH THIS ONE🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣

What DAW do you use?

BusanBlack responds:

Thanks for going through this with me haha.
I use Ableton live 12 but I only got the basics package.

[Macrocosmic Malfunction]

this atmosphere is diabolical

LD-W responds:

Wait until you hear the dark ambient album I'm releasing in a couple/few months ;)

[Windows Out]

But Mr. Black I don't want my windows to be out

I didn't even know know they could do that 😭

BusanBlack responds:

Some windows open out. I have windows that you pull on a reel and they open towards outside. Gotta let that fresh air in to keep the stink out.

[Sweet Honeydew]

Sweet mother of battery acid hot pockets, my boy Jacquavius Black be dropping every 12 hours🔥🔥🔥🗣🗣🗣

7/4 is refreshing. Drums could use some dynamics and a bit more variety but that's about it. nice work as always!

edit: oh wait it's Jamuary

*thats* why you're droppin so frequently

BusanBlack responds:

Yeah I hadn't come up with a song in 7/4 so I was like ok lets start at the basics. The drums definitely could use more variety but with life and all I only get like an hour or 2 on each song per day. I think Im going to come back to some of these songs and spiffy them up a bit.

[EDGE OF REASON]

I have a little bit to say about this one.

First of all there's no need for the T-rating, nothing about this is inappropriate.

Second, the track could definitely use some polishing; the melody is very repetitive and the mixing in that middle section is a bit harsh. I would suggest bringing in some other melodic elements, like a second lead or something, as well as putting some sidechain on that kick because gawd dayum that shit is muddy as fuck. I have to admit it goes hard but it does gets repetitive after a while.

Not bad. Keep up the good work gang

PROJECT-Variance responds:

Thanks a lot! I Was a little scared id get issues for the album cover, so i did that as a just in case.

[Winter Night]

This shit is fire as fuck. Synth lead(s) are really and the whole track feels super nostalgic.

That break from 0:55 to 1:22 is beautiful and is definitely my favourite part of the piece. All in all, very well done; keep it up!

As a side note, there's no need for the T-rating. I notice a lot of your tracks are rated this way, and there's nothing inappropriate about any of them. All this does is make your track less accessible to people, so I would recommend you just rate your stuff E instead as there's literally nothing in your content that would harbor a different rating.

Stone9 responds:

Aha! Thanks for the advice. I'll change the rating :3

[Rest Here for Now]

is this c major?

I like the ride bells and reverse trash stuff, gives the track a unique feel. Panning on the perc is nice, and the neat lil plucky synth coming in in that latter half is really nice as well.

Short and sweet. Well done Mr. Black!

BusanBlack responds:

Yeah this is c major. I went with something happy. Thank you. I wanted this song to be longer but with it being Jamuary and not having a lot of time on hand I usually make at most a 2 minute song. I think Ill come back to rework some of these.
