Father-of-Death responds:

you dirty bitch :P jk

[drowning (AIM)]

This is soooooo good! I love that wavey main synth thing and the entire thing is really well composed. Digging it! :D

johnfn responds:

thanks! :D

[REALITY GLITCH AUTOMATON]

THIS IS AMAZING! You should be a VG composer for a game like VVVVVV or something like that <3

johnfn responds:

Thanks mang! I guess VVVVV already got a composer but maybe they'll make another VVVVV? Hey, would the 5th installment of VVVVV be called VVVVV V or VVVVVV?

[HUSH]

lol this is amazing. It sounds like Folie A Deux era Fall Out Boy but with a greatttttt Bilal-sounding vocal. Legitimately great voice, especially when the verses and so on start. It's so catchy and good...

there are parts that sound !3OH3 ft. Katy Perry-ish, but it's overwhelmed by the great sounding moments. Especially verses like the one at 1:52.

GJJJJJJJJJ BRUH

CHiLEDAWG responds:

ayeeeeeeeeee ZiGZAG! thanks so much for the review bro you are the mannnn!

[Night Stalker]

0:00 pensive enough beginning
0:20 bass comes in
0:27 sounds horrorcore-ish
0:33 i like this chord coming in
0:40 that kick is a bit too subdued for my liking... too bassy, not enough breadth or whatever
0:55 i hope it comes to the fore soon
1:00 this is too subdued...... at the moment. needs a little more in your face drums. i try not to mean that in the shallowest of ways, but the song does need a bit of energy and sway in my opinion
1:40 yeah it's a bit too subdued imo
SKIP to 2:45 wow this entire track never lifts, does it? it needs to lift

In my opinion this track needed to lift and it didn't.... even in the drum parts the hits weren't distinct enough. left me without a good impression. still well-produced, though, just not energetic enough

AnubisInc responds:

I'll take this into consideration when I complete this song. Thank you for your input, and thank you for listening.

[Gojou's Theme]

Wow. The melodies in this are fantastic. You're right in saying this is Mega Man-inspired. It is beautiful and every little bit has its purpose.
0:22 This part is fantastic! Well-done. So brilliant.
0:31 Wow! Those stabs. I love it. So good.
0:43 I love your composition. Don't know what much else to say, this is brilliant on all accounts. From the drums down to the riffs and bass lines, every thing is so well-thought-out and cohesive.
1:13 The synths here and how they bend are so ecstatic. I'm FAVOURITING you and this track.
1:34 those stabs kill me. so good.
SKIP to 2:26 much of it is the same but it is still fantastic. love it.

This was an extremely well composed song and i love how cohesive it all was. Synths well-chosen, drums were consistent, and the stabs killed me. loved it <3 favourited both for artist and song

Sodapiggy responds:

Thanks so much for your support! I'll be posting some new music soon, so stay tuned!

[Power Loop]

The snares are a bit much, and the kicks aren't mixed very well, but at least it's a kind of start. It's got some kind of fullness. Even though I've heard that guitar sample so many times. Good start to learning FL.

Axolotl responds:

Yeah, there's a lot wrong with it, but it was a good learning experiment. Creating a short melody and doing percussion and whatnot was difficult for me since I had never really used it before. I have *no* idea how to mix stuff or master it correctly in the program, and I'm still barely able to use it, haha. I need to sit down and really learn the ins and outs of it someday.

But thanks for the review! Appreciate it!

[Ominous Factory]

0:00 This bass arp. It's kind of overwhelming.
0:16 ok i'd like something to come in here it's getting a bit tedious
0:25 the drums are really weird, not sure if i like them, they are a bit tedious
0:38 i am waiting for something interesting to happen
0:48 ok so the hi-hats come in
0:55 there needs to be a bit of interest in this song
1:00 ok the repeated loops here are a bit more interesting and experimental i like it
1:13 i like this riff right here
1:19 the randomness is killing me a bit though, in a bad way
1:30 the hi hats seem a bit random and i'd like there to be a bit of logic in the way this is set out, or at least i would like to sense some as the listener
1:50 it's getting a bit repetitious
1:55 i like this version of the beat where you repeat the same phrase without snare, i think it is
2:10 and the riffs where this mostly high notes
because the low notes aren't very well mixed
2:20 ok now we're hearing a bit of variation

still this is a very repetitious piece that could do with a little difference. needs something more, in my opinion, to flesh it out.

Evy-Devy responds:

This was one of my first soundtracks I did a LONG time ago like I wrote in the description. I do wish it wasn't repeative but that's because I was using the demo version of FL Studio and had to do the song in like 1-3 days. So my old songs are repetitous because of that and inexperience. Though I hope to redo them in the future or use the notes from them for new songs. I did put a lot of interest in the song and some people really liked it.

[hip beat yo]

Dense. Nicely done. I like the bass. Good loop. Groovy. Hip hoppy. Toms on lock.

Hehe, nice one Father-of-Death

Father-of-Death responds:

yeeeeee thanks maaaaaaaaan

:)))))))))))))))))))))
