[jungle club at the end of the universe]

you have a really weird style... what inspires you to make these kinds of stuff?

itemgod responds:

thanks mate
I'm inspired by the feeling of a overdriven square wave that makes your whole body rumble. also like junkyard internet tunes that you heard in that one swf animation you watched back in 2012

fucking gold HAHAHHAHAHA

[Benign Girl Cellphone Tone x Megalovania Remix - Airux]

lol what a match made in heaven amirite

alrightt, so this is just "aiyaiyai" mixed with the megalovania melody replayed over and over (with some variations spread throught the song) with what feels like the same instruments. though i had hoped you would've made an original melody and put a bit of yourself in this track, it's perfectly fine.

maybe you could switch the instruments up a bit after some time for more variation? like how thefatrat does it in his song "unity" (correct me if i'm wrong lmaoo but you get what i mean) really liked the breakdown part at 1;41 tho.

the song clips in some parts distorting it, most notably at 1;14-1;21. putting a limiter (for minor clipping) or paying attention to the master levels when you're mixing solves the problem. (make sure the levels aren't over 0db and you're fine) the pluck gets a bit too loud at times also, so you might wanna' lower that down. other than that i would say it's alright.

overall, nice song!

Airux responds:

Thanks! This is a very great help for me 😅 tbh I'm still learning and I'm looking forward for more lessons to come. I'm gonna apply those you have said 😎 Thanks again bud 😁 Happy New Year

[Digital Apprentice]

dang bro this shit real groovy!

[Rethrough]

nice, what program did u used to make this btw, and how long have you been making music?

the song is fine really. nothing really special to it, but fine. the drop is pretty weak (like low energy) and it also seems to be clipping. add a limiter to it or decrease the volume of some of your sounds and that'll fix it.

as for getting scouted, maybe you should submit more songs? (try to improve while ur at it too, delve deeper into music production) looking at your NG portfolio, 2 songs isn't really enough to cut it. uploading old songs are fine too, just as long as they have some quality to it. also, try patching up your dashboard, make it look more authentic or whatever.

ok that's all from me. will be getting back to check up on you.

keep improving! delve deeper into music, try new things or whatever. have fun, and don't just do this to get your stuff on gd :/

Evanmooreofficial responds:

Thanks, making drops harder has been difficult for me a lot but I’ve only been making music for two years and am self taught. Thanks for the advice though definitely will use it (also I use ableton)

[WoolyScarf - Night View]

alright, so i see you're getting better at your melodies and making them less repetitive. a little advice tho; instead of having 4-bar loops, try extending your melodies to 8-bars or 16-bars, they'll provide for more variation to the ears. you're also finding your own leitmotifs and style too so that's nice!

as mentioned before, i didn't really feel a bassline in there. maybe instead of using a sub bass, use like an actual bass? there's gotta be a preset in lmms like that right? i think your mixing at the top to middle frequencies is actually pretty decent already, you still need to work on the bottom tho!

for your risers, i wouldn't recommend having the synth play ascending notes one by one if you know what i mean. if i'm not mistaken there should be a slide/pitch bend mechanism in lmms. use that, and your risers will be more smooth! (note that you could actually use that on the lead, bass, or on anything that you deem fitting)

your drums are getting better too; maybe if you added some hi-hats/percs/anything that occupies the higher frequencies on top of those snares and kicks, that would make your drum game even better!

well that's it from me. keep going and you'll be on your way to getting scouted on these parts!

DJ-Halit responds:

Thanks for reviewing!

Adding a melody going for 8-bars would be much better than doing a 4-bar melody. To be honest, that would've been a great idea.

I've actually added three basses. Maybe it's sub-bass I'm missing. Or I'm just missing more normal bass.

Not gonna lie, I did rush the build up a bit. I should add a riser.

Some hihats in the drums section would be nice. I don't think percs would be too great though. I tried experimenting with percs in before I released this song but it didn't sound very nice.

Thanks a lot for reviewing and I'll see you sometime soon! :D

[Happiness]

runescape is that you?

SpeedoRH responds:

bruh xD

[CQD]

...mind telling me the sound design in this?

Silios-Desai responds:

i do mind.

[Barbariki Phonk (remake)]

okay i appreciate that the distortion was probably "intentional", but maybe you went a bit uhmm... overboard on the distortion? to the point where it's taking up the space for every sound bro

[MACROMEDIA FLASH 5]

just listened to it's entirety and it was surreal as shit

sucks that flash will be kil bro
