[In The City!]

i think some more bass would help flesh this song out, as well as some additional drum parts. i really kept hoping for some hihats or other cymbals, more bass drum hits etc! despite that, the synth is fun and varied, and the snare is interesting and snappy throughout. the pacing of the song is good, though i feel the beginning was maybe a hair too long? the ending however, felt right! :D i enjoyed the work! ty for sharing

Themon4 responds:

I updated the song and now its 2 times better thank you

[The moment]

the female-sounding vocals emerging from that first crescendo was really inspired. you're building a valley of a scene here for sure, a forge!! it's the moment!!!! i also loved the guys coming back to fade out at the end the track, i cracked up a little bit !! thank you for sharing

Tensemusic responds:

Thank you Jimmy, I really appreciate the details of your feedback. Thank you so much! Have a nice day!

[360°]

i really like the feeling here. there's a sense of walking down city streets at night, a subdued urgency -- patient excitement.

i think you have a great sense of timing in how long each segment is -- great timing!

i think some better, more cohesive soundsets would do you wonders? i feel like the melodic devices were there, but the timbre on some of the instruments just kinda slap against each other.

the ending felt a bit tacked off, but i'm sure you can come up with a better one!

again i liked this a lot and i think you have a lot of room to grow. keep the energy!!!!

Themon4 responds:

Id say this one is one of my bad songs tho😅, Also thank you for commenting, when I saw a comment in the notifs I got realy happy you made my day.

I really enjoyed the intro into the first main segment at :50 or so, after that though the track loses my interest just a little bit -- I feel as if the transitional portions between the fuller parts kinda outstay themselves just a bit, even though the full parts are definitely worth it. That being said, the synths and pads you're using are all very fun and bouncy!! 3:02-3:10 is awesome!!!!!

Congrats on yr friend's engagement!!!!! very nice of you to make a song for them :)

[CARNAGE]

lol i love the idea here but damn this shit is WET, can't imagine when or where i'd listen to this again, but it seems like it was real fun 2 make

Pansexygoat responds:

Mostly experimenting tbh. All my music is just me messing around

[FALLING THROUGH TIME]

super dreamy pleasant track!! was big chilling to it while it played in the bg! i think that long glitch effect was really brave and jarring as fuckkkk but i have a friend that insists music should seek to illicit more primal responses so sure i'll go with that!

averyocean65 responds:

Haha, sorry for scaring you with that transition!

[NIGHTFALL]

00:45-1:00 i found myself piquing into the song
1:15~ a sour note i kinda noticed
2:27~ reintroduction of the drums here was in a satisfying place, not too obvious :)
2:36 that silent portion doesn't really work -- it's too brief and not defined enough; i literally just thought my phone had gone off or something! definitely consider the length of silence spaces! how much silence can quickly transfer one feeling to another.

OVERALL I liked this piece, I thought it was fun and moon-faced in a pleasant way, a midnight blue sky in my mind! I do feel like the tinny and repetitive aspects of the instrument soundsets you used draw things down a bit in the song as far as genuine replayability but the core is there! The feeling is there! I enjoyed my time with the song.

averyocean65 responds:

Thanks for the constructive feedback! I'll be sure to take it into account with any future pieces I create!
