[KISS ME THRU THE PHONE]

soulja boy tell em

FREE99 responds:

yeaaaaaaa

[cheerleader]

this is a fantastic remix, the vocal chopping and fx in the drop is really impressive, and that bass is clean as fuck. the new chords work great too, and really separate it mood-wise to the original, its great. good job!!

djeb responds:

thank you so much!!!!! <3

[The end of life is magnificent (OLD VERSION)]

i love the atmosphere youve made here, the sense of desolation really comes through and i liked all the ambient elements you used throughout!! this might be my own preference, but id try making the drums a bit less crisp, as the sharp nature of them kinda clashes with the rest of the ambient elements. :>

baryiscool responds:

valid opinion!!
i like em crunchy and harsh though
although on louder volumes they can hurt a little
the way i made those drums was funky though so I'm glad it sounds okay to begin with

[Under Duress]

i love how trippy this is, could totally imagine a mushroom trip to something like this lol. i feel like some of the fx used have weird tones that clash with the chords and pads, and the main pad probably needs more delay/reverb as it kinda cuts in and out in some sections which breaks the illusion a bit, pingpong delay would work really well i think

boza44 responds:

thanks a TON for the feedback appreciate!!!

[I Didn't]

love the instrumentation here, a lot of synths remind me of Infected Mushroom and those types of pychadelic sounds, and they flow great. Personally I would have done more fx on the vocals to fit the over-the-top nature of the beat but still this is fantastic.

ConnorGrail responds:

thank you! very glad to hear that you like the craziness of the beat :)

[X3ll3n - Somnium (NGUAC 2023 Knockout Round)]

x3ll3n stop being good its making me depressed 😭😭

(seriously though this is really really well made and atmospheric and the fact that you made it in such a short timespan is just unbelievably impressive)

X3LL3N responds:

My heart goes out to Bassclefff who spent 20 hours on his entry and didn't make it.
Also, it's good but not really special, I'm surprised it even got frontpaged (and I wish it would have been "Bring Out the Flame" instead)

[X3ll3n - Bring Out the Flame (NGUAC Finals 2023)]

only real ones remember the clipping version :p

X3LL3N responds:

I unironically think the clipping version might be the better one

[locked in (NGADM ROUND1)]

Holy fuck dude!! Your sound design is unparalleled. I adore the UK garage sections in particular, you really nailed that vibe, and i think it mixes in with the house ish drop really well

CrowdDoll responds:

Thank you so much

[Aerin & X3ll3n - Hikaru]

X3LL3N responds:
