[Void]

Oooooh this is some crazy shit <3

That bass at 3:43 had me hoping you were building to a faster paced and more blown out percussive section, but then it just did an impact and cooled down ;-;

Great work! The atmosphere is incredible!

CorruptModule responds:

Thanks. I started to feel unmotivated to finish so I tried wrapping things up as best as I could. sorry if I disappointed you man but I'm glad you still like the ambiance. i might come back to it later but I don't know.

[Giggiato]

Such an interesting song! I like the drums and the synths. The quieter bit at 1:38 was so good! Honestly was so pleasantly surprised by the saxophone, brought the whole thing together. Great work!

[Moonlight | AlphaStorm]

This is a fantastic track! It sounds like the guitar strings weren't the right gauge for Drop G but I like it xD

I think the guitar was missing some high end and needed some mids cut, and was either too loud or the drums were too quiet and needed some boost to the kick.

My fav parts are the section at 2:24 and then 3:57!

Great work :D 8/10

AlphaStormMusic responds:

Yeah, a lot of those issues I’ve fixed since. I’ve changed my EQ curve on the rhythms and have been refining it a lot.

Also, the string gauge was perfectly fine for the tuning, they were just old. I’ve changed them since. Might need to re-record it for that reason lol

Anyway, thank you very much!

Best and take care!

[Beauty Is in the Mind]

I really like this track! Not sure I understand the lyrics, but the vocals are nice and I love the instrument choice!

The vocals are clean, but super dry. Honestly I think having a sort of messy 80s style vocals with way too much chorus and reverb would have been interesting.

Also it bums me out that the song spends most of it's time at the maximum volume/energy level. Maybe it's tricky to do mixing on fl studio mobile and all the other things you'd routed it to, but I feel like some part of the song should have been a little louder, like the bass/synth break at 1:14 or something (which is another really neat part of the song, I just wish the bass was a little more saturated).

7/10 Awesome song :D

SkankyMojo responds:

Thank you and cheers for taking the time to leave a detailed review.

[Atychiphobia]

This is a great track! I think my only critiques were that it remains the same loudness/energy level the whole time, and the vocals are a little buried. Good luck!

[SALT THRONE]

+ loud bombastic sounds, intense energy throughout that changes pace very quickly!

- could have used a few more low points in the middle section to give the intensity time to die down so it doesn't stagnate. When you keep a song at the same intensity for too long, the perceived intensity begins to wear off.

Great track overall, I really enjoyed it!

[summer sucks]

This song is both the anguish I feel when waking up covered in sweat on a 95 degree day as well as the relief I feel when it cools down in the evening. Great work!

[Last Night Sight]

Beautiful track! I wish there was some variety in the bass. I recognize that melody in the final section, from a blank banshee song or something. Fit very well!

[power move]

is this fucking PENIS MUSIC xD

Pretty funky, gives me warioware vibes. I would have done a little more to the dynamics to keep it from sounding like a brick wall the whole time. I like the lead near the end but it definitely suffocates the rest of the elements.

If you're slapping fruity limiter on the end of the effect rack, DON'T. Try fruity soft clipper.

beenibroh responds:

thank you so much for these pointers. i will apply them in the future!

[Eventide Illusion]

+ Love the atmosphere and the beat!

- Not a whole lot of variety, I feel like this needed a middle section to shake things up and a louder finale.

Great track! 8/10
