[Fractured]

very...deadly indeed

maybe the snare could have a longer, reverbed tail, you know... boom - tshhhhhhh, boom - tshhhhhhh,

other than that, the production is great, very clean, you really progressed,
keep it up :)))

DelitescentAria responds:

idk man, i like to keep it tight, especially in these really strong distortion heavy songs. if i had let it ring, it would've bled into the other sounds, so the ringing snare was already a match made in heaven i didnt wanna just mess with it too much

love ya bud, keep it real, ill keep dropping tracks of questionable quality

[Meltdown]

hey there, this sounds like old SeamlessR to me, everything is nicely balanced and arrangement also got better since the last time I listened to your stuff, keep it up :¨)

DelitescentAria responds:

youre the best, man
thanks for the kind words

wish you the best

[Candlelit Waltz]

4/5 I didnt hear any candles in the mix
and some bassline would be nice
other than that nice melodies and progression :ú

DelitescentAria responds:

you FOOL

the baroque era has no such thing as a "bassline"

your ignorance insults me!

jk jk thanks for the review
i wanted to keep it kinda authentic and it was based on a scene in a story im writing so theres no candles because of the setting! (kinda idk) i just really liked those damn chords

[Just Havin A Smoke]

dont smoke its not good for you

...it takes life from you and this track could use a bit more of life... more changes in rhythm, but other than that it's nice (:)

DelitescentAria responds:

heck u dude ur not my mum

thanks tho

[Spirit Of The Forest]

hey there, I really like the basses and synths, though it all happens kind of too fast imo, especially the first drop, which also stops very suddenly, I'd play around that transition to the middle part a bit more.. the guitar that kicks in later is also a nice touch

Production-wise it's perfect, really, nice and loud yet very clear

sounds like you know what you're doing, keep it up :)

Spline-1337 responds:

Thank you)

[Riot Out Of Hell]

whaat

this beats all of my "hard" tracks, the mix is tight and loud and bass sound design super wild,

the drops are perfect, maybe the intro and middle part could be more "sinister" with slower chord changes and more background effects, now it's a bit cheesy

you progressed so much though, keep it up

DelitescentAria responds:

gaaaah! im so happy! thank youuuuuuuuuu!!!

[Insane]

hey there

the crash cymbal feels a bit too loud imo, especially around 1:12 and 2:00, you could eq out some of the piercing frequencies

there are some dissonant vibes in 1:18 and 2:06, not sure if that was on purpose

other than that it's alright, nice lyrics and guitar, the beat works, it has some flow.. I like that humming part before the end

that's about it from me, I don't really have much experience with making this style of music :)
keep it up

Towny responds:

Thank you for the feedback! You're right about those high frequencies, I'm gonna mess around with some low passes and see what comes out

[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

[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)
