[Dubstep song preview]

It could use a bit of ambiance or other filling sounds in the beginning, and some higher sounds at the bass drop. Other than that, the harmonies are nice, the melody is catchy and versatile, the bass has a nice sound, and the progression is nice.

Full version out

[Xyonite - Revolution]

I didn't expect to find something like this with the un-scouted artists. The chords are nice and consistent, the rhythm is something I can nod my head to, and the melody is simply great. If you really made this and weren't stealing or slapping loops together, I wish you the best of luck in your future music career.

XyonSlayer responds:

I'm really glad to hear this! Thank you so much!! :3 Sorry for the incredibly late reply though.

[Loopamania]

Pretty good for a first song.

Wulfu responds:

Thx

[Metropolis]

There is a lot of dissonances, which work ok at the start but work a little less towards the end. I suggest learning chords if you haven't already. As an exercise, maybe you can try making a song that limits the notes to a chord.

I hope Google Translator will correctly translate the text...

Oh... This will not be soon, because I simply do not plan to do this. In fact, I am a complete zero in music, I never received musical education[and do not plan] :)

I just like to synthesize sounds(I never use presets in synthesizers). And music I do for the soul. And I do music... 4 months! :D
So of course I will have a lot of mistakes in the music

Thanks for the advice

[stage 1]

Pretty cool. but gets very dissonant around 1:14. Consider learning some chords. I started out by exclusively using notes in a certain chord.

fireballmusic responds:

thx for tip i get it:)

[Asikki - Bananas (Saidez NG exclusive remix) (7/13/19)]

I don't know how good the original is, but this is pretty cool. I don't know what to say about this because I do not know what you've changed.

Edit: In my opinion, this is much better.

DJ-Saidez responds:

I found the original mix, it's only on Splice, put a link in the description. If you ask me, the original sounds better and smoother, but neither the original mix or my remix were impressively made because it's really a bunch of samples. Thanks for the support!

I have no idea where the rhythm is, but, in this case, it really helps the feeling of being lost.

Dv-8 responds:

I had the BPM set around 96 , then instead of staying 4/4 , i flipped to 3/4 occasionally and so on ...Im Slowly learning how to convey a theme , thank you for your feedback!!!

[everything.]

I love how the effects and instruments are used to aid the musical texture efficiently. The voices feel a little out of place. the brakes are very well timed. Overall, I give it 5 stars.
I never rate 5 stars unless I find a new favorite song. I love the amount of emotion in this song, a soothing emotion that is hard to express, yet this song captures it perfectly. I love it!

BurneMusic responds:

Thank You!

[Sorrow]

drums - average
melody - above average, great in the second half
instrumental - below average in the first half but great on the second half

The first half was okay, the instrumental choice seemed out of sync. then the second half had a good piano and a good drop. Felt a bit repetitive though.

SentryTurbo responds:

good enough, i guess!
thanks for the review!
