[DoomPunk Eternal 2077]

Sound design, mixing and percussion is top notch but the structure of the song is very weird, it's hard to distinguish if you're building up tension or releasing it with a drop. To me the whole track felt like a build up and there was no drop, when the song ended I was left in confusion and disappointment.

Demonicity responds:

yeah that bugs me a bit too but it can work as a combat soundtrack i think.

[Somewhere in Nevada]

Bloody brilliant

cheshyre responds:

Right back at ya, Skymix! But I think yours is better by either -12 or -6db lol

[Hacktivist]

Should have saved it for madness day !!

Demonicity responds:

probably

edit: i mean ofc i should have

[Seize Ur Moment]

Sound design is good, mixing is good, melodies and chords are amazing.
Suggestions:
Needs more variations in the sound. In the end part it's 2min straight of loudness, the same drum pattern, variation in the synths is good and change of chords which is very nice and hard to pull off, but you don't change the rest enough for 2mins straight, starts to get tiring on the ears the intense noisy sounds, where are the breakdowns? transitions? Feels lacking in structure and I also feel like some synths are lacking stereo. I don't like when the kick is less bassy than the synths but that's just preference.
Solid 4 star.

Azuleux responds:

yeah i get that, i was mainly focusing everything on the chords and just kinda air-headed everything else lol, thank for the feedback!

[Dreamland]

Sounds like it's from a movie.
Mixing problems aside, well done man.

KevinMueller responds:

Thanks a lot. :)

[frite2]

why does it sound muffled

Edit: lacks high end, it sounds like it was low passed

Gage responds:

I cut off some of the high-end to give off a more relaxed feel for the entire song, not enough to cut off any major frequencies given off from any of the instruments.

[Patrystyk - Claustrophobia (Main Theme for ,,Foundation Files")]

this is sick

Patrystyk responds:

Glad you liked it!

[Daylight Robbery]

Hmm I think the hi hats are way too loud, I would turn them down a bit. I didn't see any other major issues.

mcOoohmami responds:

appreciate the response! ill defo look into tweaking em to be a bit more balanced with the track

[Job Opportunity - Agency Incorporated]

that was nice

Patrystyk responds:

^-^
