[Air Ducts]

add limiter, avoid clippage

CorruptModule responds:

Thx for the feedback. I want to remake this song someday, add some better mixing, and maybe make it longer. but that's for another day thanks for the review. 👍

[Rainforest]

An emotional start opens up to an orchestral wonderland of winded instuments, blended beautifully together with a lone man clapping starting a massive uproar of dub-stuff, personally, I think your orchestral work outshines the dub, but it really feels out of place trying to imagine what could have been done with an orchestral opening rather than mixing some dub in, the lead and dub seems to overpower the flute which in turn is louder than both but seems out of place when mixed together, overall it doesn't sound so bad, but I was expecting a more complex closure of this piece.

Pandasticality responds:

[Snowland]

Love the little toy piano that starts up in the snowstorm, chasing it away, The violin is great that starts up but gets kind of ruined by the strange twerking noise, I'd suggest blending the violin notes together a little so it sounds more natural and you get a little extra oomph, The ordering of some instuments seems to ruin the good vibe of the chior when it starts bangin, I'd say it's a pretty good song for a winter / christmas song so I'ma give it a 4

[Farewell Spaceship]

I guess you finally found a good song to throw in those familiar tricks of orchestral rises at, They work well with the laid back easygoing of the song, Your synths sound great but not all the notes please my ears with the meaty one starting at :31 seems almost to harsh for a mellow song like this, and the repeated notes around :50 surprisingly work and continue to give the song a space feeling all throughout, the loop cycle is great and I can see this in a sort of alien war space game.

eatmeatleet responds:

thanks, really good input, I am trying to fix this song as I can right now. I'll see about those notes

[Kabalist - Entrapment]

I'm surprised the piano manages to shine through the scratchy snare near the beginning that seems to drown anything out, It sounds nice and continues to shine until the lead and hat start to overcome it along with the brass, But then it's dub time which seems too messy to me but I rarely dabble in dub, The simple synth rises and wizzles go great with the overall theme and the piano peeks in throughout to keep a sense of sanity, The Funk rub rhythm around 3:55 is great but the 8-bit synth seems over lived after it's pitch rise, Overall a good, great, complete sounding track with a simple but proper pianotic ending.

Kabalist responds:

Thanks for the constructive review, Tykwa!

[Hold Me Closely]

chorus sounds like shit

[the -BEST- tetris remix!!!]

ABSOLUTELY GENIUOS

[Ready for Interception]

Very nice sound overall, I'm not sure if, on the intro, The drums should be un-passed with the rise or not, but it would be something worth experimenting. I believe some reverb could be used on the abruptness of :58, I think completely silence should only be from extreme to extreme, not extreme to rise, (Like at 1:44).

It's a little loud" as I get a little distortion on the main synth, It sounds like your going for a jumpy wub towards the end of the song but it's "stuck" in mids.
