[Sky Fly High]

yayyyy Themon drum and bass that's so hype!!! fun listen, i love DnB -- I will say some of the pitch/volume adjustments throughout the song were a little choppier than they probably should have been, and the pad could have used a little more life, but the drum loop was fun and I'm glad you put this out -- thank you :)

Themon4 responds:

First time trying this kind of stuff, I just wanted to test out how it would sound, glad you like it

[Open Arms]

really lovely . thank you

B-RadGfromOV responds:

No, thank you

[outside]

the mixing is way too sharp -- it's piercing my ears. you defffffinitely want to rein it back on the kicks, the intro sincerely hurts lol -- couldn't finish listening

Ic20e responds:

true

[She came with the Black Moon.]

update: okay i deadass just seek this song out deliberately to listen to it, i seriously love this shit whoa!

this is awesome! I love the weight you've added to the synths, everything holds up so well!

Cebster responds:

Thanks. That means a lot.

[THE_MAD_SCIENTIST'S_CREATION]

i love how belligerently unhinged the scientist is, holy shit -- if you did the voice for it, kudos -- you fucking killlllllled it!!!! the song pacing isn't always consistent, but it's all very fun!! :) victory fanfare at the end; nice touch

ninthcrossing responds:

thank you!! it's pitched down 4 semitones, but it is, in fact, my voice! really glad you liked the victory fanfare

[village of guys]

ngl i tabbed away from this while it was playing and was really enjoying it, only to hear it cut off right as it was starting to pick up! i feel like there's definitely another minute and a half + of this song floating in the ether somewhere, but what is here is nice build-up/foundation for sure

ninthcrossing responds:

i definitely agree with you that this song is unfinished! i'll probably come back to this one since i really like the melody i wrote for it

[Land of Hunger and Savageness]

this is cool! i love the sound effects, like the bats in the beginning, or the gurgling at 0:54! very rad, like a scary coaster ride. you should tag this halloween2023! it would fit well

Latadenata responds:

Thanks for the tag recommendation, I'll do it! And I'm glad you liked it so much!

[Synth-etic]

fun progression throughout -- reminds me of a more upbeat vein to Axiom Verge, especially with the bass drum. I really like the bass here.

I think the intro is a little long and the initial two sections are very samey, and the mixing doesn't lead to much of my interest.

after 0:55 though, there is a lot here to love -- the crunchy piano could probably be boosted a bit, but it's a great gateway into the meat of the song and the melody, which is all so panoramic and awesome. i love the variation and the way the instruments play off of each other. the kick-back in at 2:03 or so is well-executed as well.

I think the ending could have been executed a little better,, i understand cutting instruments out one-by-one for sure, but i feel like there's a better ending that's unique to this song hiding in there somewhere! i'd love to hear it!

i really really liked the core of this track, and i'm glad you shared it!! thank you :)

Mesage responds:

Thank you for the review!

[The stars in the sky]

the snare sounds a little wet here and the fade-out near the end doesn't work exaactlyyy but you're really making strides!!!!! I love the subtle melody coursing underneath the main sounds, very lovely work!!!! truly one of the songest songs C:

Themon4 responds:

Heh, thanks this one had audio issue from the start, I tried to fix them but It only made it worse, and then I wanted to back track because It was worse now and you can kinda see where that went. Thank you for the response!

[Red Lights]

i love the subdued lofi elements in a track that isn't completed encased by them. the waves in the background provided a really wonderful metronome and i love the way you used the pad! such great work :DD

Beatumpop responds:

thank you ! ^^
