What's everyone talking about, the mastering was good and the sidechain is pretty apparent to me! The chord progression is amazing, i think the pacing is great, i love the sounds and the mastering is pretty solid! Sometimes the snares get a little drowned out, the drop should be a bit louder, and the lead in the back of the drop at the end should be just a bit louder, but overall this is an amazing song i would love coming back to.

(I don't get the inspiration though, this is very different than at the speed of light, pacing wise, genre wise and atmosphere-wise, but I'm probably missing something)

Synfang responds:

You are correct about ATSOL; however, my inspiration was in the sense of having the key change towards the end, and also I took inspiration from ATSOL in the ending piano sections of the songs. Anyway, thank you for your feedback! :D

[How to nine circles]

A beautiful piece of shit

[We Are Number One Remix]

I love the electro swing vibes, i think its a good fit for the song, and it's just overall a jam

[Bruh]

Memes aside, this is really good. I like the lead of the song, and the percussion is actually pretty good. Mastering wise, i think the drop should have been mastered louder but it doesn't bother me that much, I think all the instruments are mastered quite nicely. Overall great song.

Synfang responds:

At the time I made this, I admittedly wasn't nearly as good at mastering as I am now, so I apologize for my inexperience. Anyway, thanks for the feedback! :D

[DJVI - "Cycles" (Remix)]

Nice hardstyle! Only complaint is the percussion (yes, i know, i rag about percussion way too much). At 0:30, i think the snares should be mastered louder, they're very quiet but crist and it doesn't work for me, and the drop has the same problem as the DJVI hardstyle CLG; The snares are very drowned out, thus making it not seem like a drop. But apart from that this remake is really good, especially the lead and the new melody edits.

Synfang responds:

Yeah, you're right. I would make more hardstyle nowadays and demonstrate improvement upon this, but I kinda lost my good hardstyle kicks, so once I get another hardstyle sample pack, I'll get right back to this. As for mastering, at the time I made this, I wasn't nearly as knowledgeable about that as I am now (not that I'm currently an expert by any means, but I'm a lot better than I used to be), so pardon my inexperience.

Anyway, thanks for the feedback!

[Elexco ft. DJ N3utral123r - "Forgiven"]

Nice one! Only complaint is that the snares should be a bit more crisp and loud, as the washed-out snare kinda gets on my nerves. But overall amazing Collab, especially like the lead. Looking forward to your future stuff

Synfang responds:

The snares (assuming you mean the ones in the buildups and drops) were Elexco's addition, but that aside, thanks for the feedback! :D

[Fermi Paradox]

Absolutely wonderful. The drum pattern is great, the pacing is very nice (especially for a 7 minute runtime), and i especially like the chord progression and the sound design especially. The parts that shine the most are the heavy dubstep with the melody; It's just everything I like in dubstep. The only iffy part are some of the dubstep parts without the melody but that's the literal definition of nitpicking. One of my favorite songs, and easily my favorite song of yours.

Demonicity responds:

thank you!

[Shredageddon]

Easily your best song, the bass is wonderfull, the song doesn't get repetitive at all, it's catchy, what more could i ask? Wonderful song all around.

[TheFatRat - Time Lapse]

A bit repetitive, but catchy af with an amazing melody and sound design. That's about all I can say
