[Machine]

the panning is doing so so much here i love ittttt ahhh

Latadenata responds:

Why, thanks! I'm glad you like it!

[AIM - Nurture]

rad! :) very rainy but still very comfy -- i particularly like the subtle tempo change-ups. (one of my favorite songs by MF DOOM is Tick, Tick... for that very effect!!)

Latadenata responds:

Thank you! Glad you liked it!

[Therapy]

I really like the restraint in your build-up here! The pads keep things fresh for so long and the way the snares sneak in under the bass hits at 0:47 is so slick, i really like it! I find myself wishing, at 1:12-1:22, that the bass wasn't so swayed by the melody, I think the syncopation might have worked a little better if you had the two elements bounce off each other a bit more instead of coalescing. This is also evident at 2:00~-2:18.

However, I overall find this song so so enjoyable. I loveeee the tranquility of the pads in the background. There is such a unique vibe perpetrated by this track and I think it shows real vision. Very very cool, I feel as though I am in a white room!!!!!!!

[The fighter]

super baller, i love it!!! as someone who enjoys using beepbox, this is super inspiring :D

[Sit, relax, unwind]

the track itself is only 3 or so seconds long, which is cool because it IS enjoyable for the allotted 54 second runtime. it would fit nicely in a variety of small screens, and i really enjoy how there are multiple facets all coordinating quite well in such a small amount of time. it's pretty impressive that way. i would love to see what more could come from this track, it's all so well-articulated as is, so i bet it could theoretically be more!

[Industrial Friction]

totally gonzo haha

[P.L.U.G.I.]

the first minute of this song is flawless.

[DECAPITATE]

- it's so rare and awesome to be completely sold on a song within the first 3 seconds. really killer opening for REAL.
- I feel like the build-up portion from 0:30-1:00 goes on a little toooo long, and i feel like if it was cut in half it would be a lot more satisfying from a dance perspective.
- the drop is really stellar though dope dope dope.
- i think the toms that are behind the bass are a little toooo bongo-y for the sake of the hardness of the song, but maybe that's opinion.
- whatever that drone is at 2:07-2:14 is godlike.
- the repetition of 0:30-1:00 kinda reaffirms to me that it feels outta place with the rest of the song's mood, but the drop still goes just as hard and i LOVE the drums that are present here.
- i could definitely see this playing at the warehouse club i go to sometimes, really cool shit thank you for making this kind of song. (also if you left a review on one of my songs i'd super appreciate it!!)

[N 221 JLL-NG 2]

the high pitched synth at 0:28-1:10 is superrr charming. the guitar that follows too, is very lovely. these instruments overlaid on the foundation of the track give the track a certain kindness that I think is wonderful especially in a genre like techno.

I found the drop at 1:53 to be a bit toothless honestly, and thought that the big orchestral pad after wasn't as fitting for the rest of the song -- which is further evidenced by the quaint little bird chirping sounds that are after.

i really love the interesting variations of the lead instrument here and how cute they all are. i think that's kinda innovative.

thanks for sharing this! I enjoyed listening. if you wanna leave me a review on one of my songs too i'd appreciate it :)

[mesage - Dictators: no peace OST | Do not panic, leader (remix)]

this is cool! I'd say the biggest area to improve with this particular song is that it seems so much of the song is taking place on the same channel.

the bass/rhythm pad is super buried under the punch of the drums. I also wish we could stay with each portion of the song longer. this wants to be a 4 minute song no doubt.

I want to sink my teeth heavy into the intro chords, like a wind blowing across marshland. and that repeats for each segment, really..

ultimately i think this song is so dope, the sounds, and the mood and all but it is so clustered together and could use some wringing out. i hope this helps!
