[Blizzrd - Frozen Fern]

This has some frostpunk vibes to it. I would've like to see a bit more atmosphere in the beginning. The composition is ok but I wish it would switch up the pace or have more variety in notes like maybe some more quarter notes or eighths.

BlizzrdMusic responds:

Thank you for the feedback! I can understand all of those points. It was my first 3 minute Ambient track, but I can see and completely understand a lot of the points.

[Skyships]

I really enjoyed the composition of this piece and the counterpoint is quite nice! The track sounds like it has character to it!

HollandAlbright responds:

Thanks so much! I appreciate that a lot!

[Autumn Sunset]

Your track sounds kind of lowpassy and a bit muddy. It sounds like some of your instruments could be thinned out a bit more with an EQ. The G# at 0:51 sounds very out of place. The main thing is the track just needs more clarity to it. The composition isn't bad though.

MarquinRobes responds:

I really need to use accidentals properly. Thanks for the feedback though

[The Moon Serpent]

Holy damn this is beautiful! Very well done! Sounds like it could use some mastering but it could just be I listened to a louder track before this. Other than that the composition is amazing! I'll definitely be sending for a frontpage!

Edit: Nevermind it already got frontpaged

Deemo-R responds:

I actually neglected to mention but it was mixed and mastered by Dennis Sands - I don't really have access to the same hardware or impeccable ears so my mix would sound quite worse, haha. They really played with a lot of dynamic contrast so we let the finished product have a bit of range and be overall a bit lower than most commercial stuff. Thanks so much for the feedback, and I appreciate the support!

[Let's Meet Up! (Orange County)]

Sounds pretty nice but your instruments sound very dry and I recommend a better choir sample even if it is a video game song because they sound very low quality. The song's composition is very nice but falls a bit flat on the mix. It sounds like you need more space for your lead instruments. The repeat brings it down tbh.

SupaBubba responds:

I really appreciate the feedback, there is some really helpful stuff in here. Thanks for lending your ear :)

[Hyper Fern]

The only thing I will recommend is a countermelody at 1:21 but I really enjoyed this! Highly underrated song! The fade out of the rain in the beginning to the song was very nice and I like how it ended how it started although the ending feels a bit long.

supermelon-creations responds:

Gotta agree on that yeah, that melody might go on for a bit too long, and the ambie ce at the end might be too long as well if its in a playlist or something sorrzz, also thx for the feedback :D... Though sorry its probably not underrated anymore since frontpage heheh

[By A Silken Thread]

Very well done! The mix sounds pretty nice.

Lundsfryd responds:

Thank you!

[maybe not]

I feel as if this could have been expanded upon much greater. My main issue is that the piano sounds very bare and it doesn't really have many interesting qualities going for it. I would recommend messing the velocity a bit more. I would actually like to make a version of this as well as I actually kind of enjoy the arrangement.

E1DD4N responds:

Yes, I agree with you, that’s exactly what I’m doing, it just takes a little time, this project has been lying on my computer for half a year, and only recently I remembered about it

remember this is just a demo

[Warkauze - Into Oblivion]

Pretty sick bro!

Warkauze responds:
