Damn.

Pros: Very nice to listen to. Simple yet effective composition.
Cons: I think the drums are a bit on top of the mix. It could blend a little better with the rest of the instruments with some compression. But this is also a bit of nitpicking.

Good job!

I thought the same but enjoyed it at the same time, I was jamming out to it.

Scouted!

i know its not mine-i just couldnt find it on newgrounds and i really like destroid-

Just a little a bit of feedback: When you use vocals/lyrics, make sure they are on top of the mix and can be heard/understood. Without the lyrics in the description I would never have known what the lyrics were. There are a lot of mixing tutorials on how to mix vocals, you should check them out :)

Pros: When the beat dropped I genuinely was like: "Oh damn!" Solid mix, bouncy bass, very nice vocal-chopped sounds... Liked it very much.

Cons: I was kinda disappointed when the second drop turned out to be a repeat of the first drop. I was hoping for a change in beat/bass, some kind of alternation that would keep me interested even more. In theory, the bridge/intermezzo could also have served as outro and I would have a feeling of completion. Maybe the first drop made my expectations to high, but I desired more :)

Great work!

I love the buildup. I dig the drop of the beat. Groovy synthwave mate :)

It's great that you had fun making it. That's the most important part in my opinion ;)

I also find the main melody/bassline a bit repetitive. Not only the melody itself, but the sound itself seems not really dynamic (example at 01:49). You could change it up maybe with random velocity or some automation?

Great work nonetheless :)

Thanks for the feedback! :) Given that the previous versions were basically just loops, it makes sense that this still sounds pretty repetetive. Though I tried making it a bit more interesting with the piano.

Well, at least now I know what to look out for when making number IV! :D

I'm impressed! Solid mixing and a compelling dark ambiance. No sound/melody is standing out to much to be distracting, which is good for background music. Nice work! :)

This is pretty fucking awesome. I love the diversity in sounds of the melody!

Very nice! Your composition is versatile with sounds/chord progression and your music is really telling a journey/story. The build-up is very nice and I liked to hear the updated version with "a proper bridge/outro etc." ;)

The only feedback I can give you is about the orchestra sounds (big drums, strings). To me they sound kinda "midi-ish" and kinda static. If they would be a bit more dynamic it would help a lot with the buildup of the song. Also the mix between the big pads, synths, dreamy stuff (the intro) and the orchestra midi seems very different. The strings to me are in another space of some sort. Are you working with aux/send reverb effects? This can help to make your mix blend :)

Keep up the great work! Oh and I also love that you work with Reason, awesome software :)
