[☆Moshi Moshi A$$hole☆]

Has a really moe and anime feel to it. Reminds me of work from 3R2, should give her a check sometime, she does a lot of anime remixes.

The one thing I think I would have changed up is the bass kick, it just seems a bit out of place. I think a heavier sounding kick would be more fitting here to be honest. Maybe noise filter it out a bit more too.

Overall, moshi moshi SpeedoSausage desu!

Speedo responds:

thanks lol
again im not really all that serious about music, i came up with a simple melody out of boredom and just used the most basic-ass built in VST's to finish it up. if i do make more music, i might actually put in the extra effort to not make it sound as yuck!

[sounds like a boss theme]

Song makes me think of Earthbound actually with a dashing of Gameboy color programming added to the mix. Tune sounds rather nice and I love the sound of it. Nice first piece too.

metroidfannumber1 responds:

Earthbound? Rly? I never really played a lot of that game. Didn't expect to sound like that. Thanks for being my first reviewer! :)

[Ira de Deus Mechanicus]

This sounds really amazing. Sounds like it would fit for a boss battle song too. Also, sounds like something you could rap over as well which is cool. This song could fit so many situations. I love it!

[Gradualist Glockenspiel]

Relaxing to listen to. All the instruments sound clean and I hear no sudden cutoffs like in your previous tune. This song sounds like something that would fit for a nice romantic scene in a visual novel or RPG game, really relaxing, I like it.

[Northpoint Fantasy]

The song reminds me of Final Fantasy VIII a lot. The tune would not sound out of place for a scene where characters are lost at the edge of time and have no idea what to do.

I think my only complaint is some instruments have a sudden cutoff that sounds a bit sloppy in my opinion.

[Breaking]

The starting rhythm makes me think of people starting up a rave and just starting to enjoy the night.

The one thing that seems to feel out of place with this song is the deep synth bass. It has a ping pong and reverb effect to it but it feels out of place as far as tone goes. I feel running it through a different filter or possibly making a new synth bass from scratch would sound a lot better. I don't know, the synth bass just seems so out of place a majority of the time.

The main synth sounds great. Makes me think of older Sonic the Hedgehog games when exploring cave areas. The constant step rhythm it has is wonderful to listen to.

The drums are good. However, I think the drums bass kick could have been filtered a bit more, just seems like it has a bit more noise than there needs to be in the mix. The claps, snares, hi hats, and crashes all sound good though.

Overall, congrats on front page. The synth bass is the only thing that seems to feel off to me even though it does not sound to out of place for most of the song after the first minute.

Voltus responds:

Thank you for your detailed Review! The first bildup should sound a bit dissorientating and open. I wanted to make the listener feel "oh whats happening" kind of an attention raiser. Maybe I just overdid it a little for your taste. I'm glad you liked the overall Song though!

Cheers!

[Boggle]

This song is so boggling! Amazingly hilarious.

[BGM Volcano]

The synth sounds a bit chaotic but the tune makes me think of a boss battle and Mega-Man slightly which is neat. The drums make this seem like you could pull off a rap over the background.

Draconis256 responds:

I always try to make my drums punchy in my songs. Yes I went very crazy with the synth and tried to make it sound a bit like the C64. But thanks for the feedback and I'll try to make my synth not sound as crazy as they should in my future songs :)

[#1 - We Take Over - NGADM]

Sounds pretty sweet. Loving the huge mixture of things going on here. :D

FlaggedOnArrival responds:

Thanks bro! Tried pulling all the stops out on this one.

[[m15] Traversing Jupiter]

This actually sounds pretty awesome. This sounds like what I would listen to while playing a space exploration game too.

The 3xOSC synth sounds deep and I like how it seems to work as a bass rhythm of sorts. It also reminds me of Sonic the Hedgehog 3.

The main synth makes me think of Shy Guys from Super Mario Bros. series just enjoying a new frontier and enjoying life away from the Mushroom Kingdom.

The secondary synth sounds heavenly and I love the reverb and phaser effects thrown onto it to give an echo.

The drums are simplistic and fit for this track just right.

Overall, amazing space song, I really like it.

mod15 responds:

I think the 3xOSC is something different from what you're perceiving it as. It's the shuffling sound that pans from one ear to the other for the first time at 15 seconds in. I guess you were referring to the deep plucked bell sounding patch? Massive! I'm really flattered that it reminded of you of Sonic, Jun Senoue is one of my musical heroes (and Michael Jackson worked on that soundtrack!)

If you'd like the Massive patches for anything, just let me know! I'd like to think you'd love to have the pad synth.
Thanks again for the review!
