[Electric Rain]

this is called trance now right
I dig that kind of lofi intro
you could use a bit wilder type of bass for the drop, some more movement you know <:)))))))()

DelitescentAria responds:

Ayyy you're here

Ill think about it

I thought it was future bassy tho
Im still a dumbass i guess

[Chainsaw Wielding Assclowns]

Hey thats pretty good, I like the sinister feel

I'd maybe use that chainsaw sound more creatively, chop it and put it around the track and create some kind of riff with it

also the hat is a bit loud, as someone already mentioned

keep it up! :)

[BIT.TRIP REMIX [08] Tenacity2]

I would make the intro longer, imo the 0:12 transition came too soon

the kick feels a bit too loud compared to the clap that basically gets lost in the main section

speaking of the main section, it's kind of repetitive, I'd probably filter that arp out at some point, of change the rhythm in some way, you know some "part B" before the outro fadeout

a lot of these notes is just my personal taste, no mistakes here really

overall it works alright :)

[Push and Pull]

progresses nicely yo
really like the sounds, kind of enigmatic but still dancy *<>*

DelitescentAria responds:

thank

[Skyhigh]

3/4? Is this 18th century or something

I think your mixdowns are getting better, it's a nice airy chill thing, though there isn't much going on for its lenght, I'd make it shorter or add more stuff over time, like the section that starts at 3:08 feels almost the same as at 2:01, I demand more of a drastic change /!:)/

DelitescentAria responds:

yeah it was stretching out a bit

but more drastic would ruin the airy feeeeeeeel (/ ; A ;)/

(fair criticism tho)

[We Might Grow Some Ostrich]

normally I'd say that the transitions are too sudden to my taste, but that's the point here probably. If I were an ostriche at a glocery store, this song would totally represent my though processes :)

nice choice of sounds, even though the tune is very quirky and glitchy and random at times, it still somehow make sense together

I could imagine it as soundtrack to some some kind of animated movie/video game or so

keep it up (:

[Evaluation License]

It has kind of "exploring" mood, at least to me, so it could work just right as a backround music for a indie game or something

but as a piece for seperate listening it would need a bit more, imo, it lacks a main melody or some kind of hook that would really catch your attention

it just goes on and on, I would really appreciate some change in the rhythm at some point, maybe add some more percussion element here and there, switch instruments from time to time

also 1:16 transition was too sudden to my taste, fadeout ending was already mentioned before me

mix sounds alright

not bad as your first tune, really, good luck with future music making :)

ETRossier responds:

You're right, it works a bit better as background music. I need to work on my composition skills themselves, and work on building some variety and producing catchy melodies. This music stuff is some tough shit.

[Vantage]

hey this reminds me of something... I dont know what... but it's definitely... something... a song... in a video... about something... a few years back... perhaps

the crashes and hats get kind of piercing after a while imo

but it has groove, a nice cheery thing, keep it up :)/)

DelitescentAria responds:

thanks :)

its a quickie to get back in the groove of making stuff
yknow, when you lose all drive to make music you just gotta put something out

even if its lazy, it helps

[life goes on]

too much bass I reckon

I'd add a tiny background pad at some point or switch instruments a bit more

but yeah, this could totally be on one of those 24/7 chillhop study beat youtube radios

have a nice life :)))))(

DelitescentAria responds:

remember that time you put distortion on the main channel

mine is a bitcrusher
;;;););)

[Not Anymore (Demo)]

hey this is actually very good, I think that with a proper production it could totally be a soundtrack for a movie or something

the slaps could be a bit quiter as already mentioned, but other than that I like it very much

I'll give it some more listens :)

...and bitches ain't shit, keep it up
