[HANDS UP - Da Chief's Quarters... Theme for Colton Morgan]

As a big fan of Hands Up I'm really excited for this. Love the instrumental hip hop vibe of this. Sounds like the sort of music you'd hear when you're being briefed on a secret mission in a video game.

[Spelunky HD - Mines A (8-Bit Cover)]

YOOOO this is nice, really feels like something you would hear in a 2000s indie platformer. Cool to see people still using trackers for music.

zami responds:

thanks but i used fl, not a tracker

[A Ghost's Pumpkin Spice]

A bit bummed that there weren't any vocals, still a great cover tho.

VadellGabriel responds:

Intentional, haha. Everyone covers the song straight-faced, I just wanted to make a jazzy arrangement instead.

[Neck Breakin' Swing]

This gives me a lot of Sonic CD vibes, probably because I just listened a bit to the ost.

[The Santa Detective]

Beautiful sound like something straight out of a Christmas movie. Gives me the feeling of cozying up on a winter evening.

Everratic responds:

Thank you!

[Who Goes There?]

Man the tension in this track, sounds like something you'd hear in a survival horror game when you're being chased by a monster.

[夢幻のStarship]

Damm this sounds good. Love the guitars used and I'm always a sucker for saxophone. I would personally describe this song as snazzy, but I don't know if anyone would get what I mean. My only real complaint is that the ending feels a bit abrupt.
I really wish I had more to say but all my other thoughts can basically be boiled down to "I think it sounds good".

[I’m Green (NGAIC Layer 2 submission)]

Nice track, sounds like something for a space adventure game.
I can definitely hear the I'm blue inspirations, especially in the beginning but the track manages to feel different later on so it's not really a big problem.
It doesn't really feel a lot like Eurodance but then again I'm not that familiar with Eurodance and the tracks I know all have vocals so maybe that's why I don't hear it

CelestialChaos responds:

Thanks for the review! Didn’t include vocals because I can NOT sing, but I agree that would’ve made it more authentic

[Ice Crasher (NGAIC 2022-2023)]

Fast-paced, sick-sounding drums and heavy synths, jup this sure is a dnb track. I like the really calm beginning building into it and I also really loved how the chopped-up vocals sound later in the track. Not to say I didn't enjoy the heavy-hitting parts those parts go hard as well. Not quite sure what more to say, this track goes hard as dnb should.

Mind telling me what drum samples you used tho? I recognize it but I don't know its name.

WakerLink responds:

I mainly used NHF sample packs for the drums, with the exception being some hats (VEDM hats), and the break (being from rhythm-lab.com amen vol 1)

[Reset Mountain, Fatal Destination]

The track is varied, uses a lot of instruments, and mixes things up as it goes.

I enjoyed especially the flute, violins, and the bell you used, also as someone who struggles with writing drums, I enjoyed the simple drums you used.

Don't know what you're going for but it gives a clear feeling of being close to the end for me.

I'm not some sort of music expert so the only truly negative thing I can say is that it doesn't particularly stand out to me, feels like I've heard this song before.
Also that I can clearly hear that you are using midi instruments but there's really not a lot you can do about that, at least not now.

After listening to this and the other track you have uploaded I can clearly see what you're going for and you clearly hit the mark for classic style RPG music. But I'd say this can be a bad thing, your music doesn't particularly stand out to me. I can't help but roll my eyes a little when I listen to your music and think to myself "a this again". Your music is definitely not bad tho so you've earned yourself a follower and a scout.

Danirbu responds:

This is really helpful, thanks a lot!! I know it can be a bit generic, but I actually have a lot of songs that doesn't match that kind of classic RPG feeling, I just need to upload them one of these days haha. The instruments... yeah, they're kinda lame, I wish I could get some better ones without having to pay that much for it. Anyway, I'll keep trying to improve on achieving a more original kind of music, but thank you so much for the feedback and for scouting me!
