[Got Mine]

Your drum machine-driven power pop always manages to put a smile on my face. :)

spicybagel responds:

Appreciate ya 🙏

[EmeraldX - Origin of the Outside]

Very soothing piece! I really appreciate that you made this. Thank you, and have a good rest of your year! :D

EmeraldXMusic responds:

Super glad you enjoyed!

[OUT THERE]

Such a great optimistic track. 8 minutes is usually a daunting time length for a song, especially one so steeped in pop, but this track absolutely thrives with the time its given to put the listener into this world where anything can be done, and through the various styles and sounds stays true to what it's trying to convey. Nicely done! :)

cocojoeyyy responds:

thank you so much for listening and for the kind words! i'm glad you felt the synthesis of sound and intention :)

[FD - Gaian Murmurs]

Such a lovely track. In a space with so many genres, it's so nice to hear a genuine ambient track, one that allows you to breathe and meditate with the song. Thank you for making this and sharing this here. It is much appreciated. :)

ForgottenDawn responds:

I'm glad to hear, thanks for listening!

[Pink (Naked)]

Nice song! Enjoyed the intricate lyrics, and the musical delivery reminds me of The Front Bottoms and similar indie bands, and toy pianos are always a joy to hear! Also love the turns that this song takes through time signatures and arrangements while still staying cohesive. Thank you for sharing this here! :)

Glassedhouse responds:

this is a great reply!!! thank you <33

[lunar landscape.]

Absolutely love the choices you've made here, from the synth melodies and percusssion to the somewhat wild arpeggio at 1:23. It feels like a genuine kind of hope is being presented here, and I feel sucked in to a dreamy club that I want to stay in for a while. Well done! :D

LordAndiso responds:

You described it perfectly!! Thank you !!! :D

[Slum]

Absolutely love this lofi sound. It sounds like the muzak they play as you're on hold with a bookstore while sitting in your car as it rains outside. Nicely done! :)

foghorntape responds:

Thanks, man. Done with the first 15 seconds of Body And Soul - Coleman Hawkins plus some jungle drums.

[phoneme]

I really enjoy your seamless blending of genres, especially since each section displays a deep love and passion for the genre it takes on. Best of all, it's given a lot of room to breathe within each section, and isn't hyperactive with how it presents its buffet. The only real critique I have is that it feels maybe too soft from 2:20-2:55, like the backing for a lead solo that isn't there. But what you have here is really good, and you should be proud!

Although a metal breakdown at the end would've been sick hehe :)

AUTOSTEREOGRAM responds:

thanks so much for the feedback! def gonna go back to this tune at some point and refine it some more. coming back now with fresh ears i for sure agree about the section around 2:20, needs a more prominent topline melody i think, gotta do that metal breakdown too lol

[psychic.]

Very mysterious track; it makes me feel like I'm in a situation where something's not quite right and the intensity involved with such a feeling of displacement (I think liminal is what the kids are calling it these days :P).

My favorite aspect to this track is that the drum breaks don't feel in your face -- they're more part of the soundscape than a heavy rhythmic accompaniment to said soundscape, which might help with the more broody aspects.

Overall, this is a real nice track that manages to convey something fairly unique, at least to me.

tl;dr: Oooh nice and spooky :)

mothlightx responds:

Beyond glad you picked up on the breaks. I've been stuck, ever since I made this track, on why it scratches such a specific itch to me and I really think you hit the nail on the head. Forever so so grateful to receive feedback from u <3

[no_better]

Haha I love the rocking out on this track! The mixing in of electronic glitching goes down well, even (or especially) when it just goes all out at the end. I think having the guitars being obvious samples helps makes this work. The flow works nicely as well; I really enjoy the variety in dynamics (especially when its easy with a track like this to just be loud the entire time) and drum solo in the middle.

Overall, I really have fun listening to this track, and would absolutely mosh to it if given the chance. :D

blandaflamma responds:

aw tyty! i'd love to do more tracks like this in the future, eventually :]
