[Unfinished business / unfinished song, really]

Hey! Sounds really cool tbh, the sound design is leet. Sth I would suggest is that sometimes (if not everytime) you put kicks every beat (so just add a kick behind the claps), it would be a nice housey variation

MIYAAH responds:

heey! thanks, my friend!
that it is a good suggestion! perhaps i will try it someday.
my original idea was to sing in a vocoder just like herbie, you know?

i got my mic fixed up and may try to come up with something with the vocoder to really put into a song structure, and perhaps try to tweak the beat and try your variation.

[Butterflies]

I really enjoyed the structure of the song (and the song itself). I liked the vocaloid voice, it really fits the track. Some notes of the lyrics around 2:44 feel out of scale but out of that it sounds good. I think that some plucky lead sounds are too dry which make some parts of the track feel a bit empty, but that's not a big deal. I really loved the bass tho! Good job!

[Radius - Weather Control (Original Mix)]

Whooo I was surprised by the drop, but sounds great man! (maybe you could have announced it by teasing the complex bass during the build-up because it makes a pretty rough transition, same with the end of the drop: it ends too straightly). The drums you used are good for the more liquid-y dnb part fit well but I think they are too short for the drop and I would have enjoyed a change in the drum samples

Radius responds:

thx, btw. it's drumpstep not liquid dnb

[Symbiogenesis]

This sounds so complexe yet very chill. I love this, really I don't have much to criticize

[Aterr - Rain Legion]

Very good track, very epic, I love it! The sounds you used sometimes sound cheap (like the choir or the violins) but eh - you don't have to buy expansive stuff if that's not where you want to go, since this sounds still good overall. I'd just say that sometimes there's a bit too much going on, and the distorded guitar kinda blurs out interesting parts of the song like the plucky melody starting at 3:34 . But still great track! (btw I love the melody starting at 4:11 :O )

Aterr responds:

Thank you for the feedback and I am glad you enjoyed it generally :3

I am using only free vst's and I'm kinda noob in mixing, so you are right, it could sound much better without some blurry part etc.
But little by little I'm moving forward, and mixing part is quite difficult for me. You know all those eq's and stuff :)
But anyway, I am doing the best I can

[Spaze - Raw Picture]

Man that drop :O very cool

[T.E.O.M. - Grustler (Produced By TheEyeOFMusiK)]

Hey, this sounds very very cool! However I can't put 5 stars because I felt sometimes like the mix was really messy, with lots of stuffs going on and it made it pretty heavy (I'd say the part where I felt like this the most is after 2:08 ). Sometimes you can barely here the voice over the melody. In addition I'd say it's a bit repetitive for its length. I know (I think?) that you can rap, so that would have helped with the repetitive feel (because 4:24 is a bit too long if you don't make things change a lot I find)

[Finding (Original Mix)]

I'm truly in love! Very good production! (and I love the vocal chops :3 )
