The chiptune sounds very dissonant in the track, and isn’t well tuned, and overall it just doesn’t sound right. The mixing could also be a bit more improved, maybe adding more compression to the bass. There’s also that weird gap in the later middle of the song, I feel it’s better to just put that gap as a transition, like a reverse cymbal! Something I do like is the drum melody, and overall the melody at the end, it sounds natural! The drums are pretty fitting for this song as well, it’s mainly the instruments and tuning that’s not too great.
What key is this song in? Cause it’s better to have a certain key if the song doesn’t have one, that’s a way to get rid of the dissonance, as well as using EQ and possibly just different instruments.
Btw, I found you through @Overscore, and tbh, I might be taking your side since he seems to have made the rude reply, and maybe he was just baiting, I’m not sure. Wealth doesn’t determine a musician (though it can help)
Keep up the good work on whatever you make! :D
(Why do I have a feeling there’s an inside joke that I’m not getting XD)
Thank you for your response though I dont quite agree with all your points.
The song is in a scale, the phrygian scale of b minor, and maybe its just your ears because I dont hear any dissonance.
BTW the "chiptune" that I think youre referring to is actually a GM clav. anyway.
I sort of agree that there could be a better transition to the end part, I ran out of ideas a bit.
It's cool that you like the end melody, when I made it it didnt feel much different than composing the rest of the song, just without the other instruments mostly, so maybe you're right that the bass needs to be improved. The lead and clav sound great in combination and thats sort of what I built this version of the song on.
Also there's no inside jokes, I think thats the worst kind of humor. A lot of the time my song titles are references to semi-obscure stuff, or just meant to be silly.
A lot of the melodies crowd over one another and seems to have a severe lack of mixing, and in some cases the piece sound’s dissonant. The vocaloid also seems to not be well made, and many of the instruments are too high pitched, probably to make a “I’m going insane” atmosphere? Either way, this isn’t the best, but it’s definitely not the worse I’ve heard. The main problems are the volume, the mixing, and the key. Just keep practicing and experimenting, maybe look up a tutorial or 2 on how to do something better!
Your DEFINITELY gonna be scouted, in fact, you already are it seems, you might be mistaking scouted for “Whitelisted”, when that will happen, I have no clue, but you gotta be patient, it will come eventually!
In conclusion, keep practicing! Don’t let anyone’s review good or bad get the best of you, and learn from it! I look forward to seeing what you’ll become! :D
This song is LONGER then summer vacation ToT
theres 104 days of summer vacation
ferb the whole break is overbooked! we can't build a rocket!
Congrats on the frontpage!
It’s a bit on the repetitive side, and the synth sounds a little dissonant at the beginning. I like the more calm synth at around 1:15, the bass around the same time sounds a bit loud, but overall not bad. The synths arp at around 1:49 sound a lot like a song known as Skyless, it’s really neat! It’s still a bit repetitive throughout the song, and has a drum beat that is really reminiscent of hip hop tracks. A bit of a sudden and not really well made transition to a HPF(High Pass Filter) version of the previous song, that seems to come back again.
Big fan of the new drums at 3:40, very dusty, but dusty in this case is good! The beat gets a little boring at around 4:20, try and add something new, like a different melody, different instrument, or possibly some radio transmission sfx! You kinda just made it go for longer then needed, that really it.
At 4:55 it gets interesting with the cutesy synth, really big fan of it! And it’s extended perfectly! I like how the song does go into bitcrush, but I’d recommend turning it down a little in the process!
Decent work, could use some variety, and leveling improvements, definitely a cool idea of a song tho! Keep it up, and congrats on the frontpage again!
Thanks for the review! I will admit, the song goes on for longer than intended, but like i said, it was an old flp that i just uploaded without fixing some things lol XD.
Not bad! But the drums are a bit on the compressed side, it also feels really empty at the beginning. At 1:01 we have that weird dissonant melody, it definitely sounds better with the reverb, but on its own it just sounds awkward and not that well in the song. The solo is probably the best part of the song, with the synth just needing some reverb and the drums seem to get better as the song goes out. Keep it up, keep experimenting! I can definitely hear the emotional side, though of course it can always be stronger :)
Thanks for the feedback!!
Just made some adjustments, let me know how it sounds now!
Really strange dubstep! But I seriously like it! The bitcrushed dubstep is amazing in this song despite the fact most would probably say that reggae should never have bitcrush no matter the circumstances. But you managed to tell those kinds of people to fuck off! Nice work!
Love this mixture with the synth orchestra hits and staccatos. The dubstep is very unique, not sounding like dubstep, but more like extremely gritty techno, but I can hear those cutoffs ;).
Really good job! Some melodies sound a little weird but overall this song slaps! Samples are also super well fitting as well! I especially love the bitcrushed Wubstep at the end! I hope I find your songs again! This was sick!
A bit crowded, but the atmosphere is pretty nice! Reminds me of oil reserves!
A seriously lovely track! I’m in love with how all the instruments are made, the length is long, but good, and the melodies are almost psychedelic! I feel like this is taking me on a journey through a universe where nothing makes sense, but yet finding sense to it. The keyboard is cutesy, and yet it fits in so well! I’m also in love with the strings, as an orchestral fan, I seriously can’t get over it, it just sounds so pristine.
Though of course there are mishaps, the drums seem to kick in a bit too loudly and suddenly at first in my opinion, and some parts of the song are kinda repetitive. But overall! This is some good stuff! I love the mysterious atmosphere, it just feels so peaceful! Nice work man!
