[Patrystyk - UNNATURAL OCCURRENCES]

Awesome song, just work on the mixing a little bit. Thought it gets better as the song goes on. Also, you're using the same melody with the sound from the beginning for 2 minutes straight, which is fine as long as you don't make it the main focus again at 1:00. That's the point when it already becomes too much.

Patrystyk responds:

The melody changes at like 1:20 i don't know if its hearable or not but it changes :p

[Nanoo - Blood And Candy]

I definitely don't like this kind of dubstep, but I mean... nice! Great work even if it doesn't hit my taste :)

Thanks man! <3

[Fireflies Type Beat]

At 0:32 it becomes apparent that the track won't really go anywhere, and it's just gonna keep repeating the same melody over and over. Adding a new part to the foreground at 0:53 doesn't really help that much, either (Even though obviously it is an amazing fragment of the song). It's short though, so I guess it's not that big of a deal. It really misses at least a tiny bit of progression though. Also, I don't necessarily like the percussion sounds, but that's a matter of taste.

EDIT: I don't listen to music like that, so don't expect me to just know this is supposed to be a melodic remix of a song (even if it's very popular, just write it at least in the description). And even so, I still don't change my mind, my rating still remains as it was, I still don't particularly enjoy this.

By all means, please don't take it personally or anything. I'm just saying that this fact really doesn't change my opinion on this work :)

[Dazed]

Very, very, too much repetitive chord sounds given that they are the main foreground of the song for the most part. And even during the time when they're not the main foreground, they still definitely help creating it. It just gets boring after a while, although all the sounds and melodies themselves are really great!

[Dark Damning Fountain]

This is absolutely amazing! I love it :D

[Chronologic]

Hmm, very interesting creation indeed.

The contrast of the calm and dubstep sections of the song is definitely something that's not seen very often, you perfectly handled it. This progression and everything makes it all feel absolutely right, you really created an amazing piece :)

[Cannon factory remake]

Pretty good, although there are the weird silent/almost-silent moments that are just random. Also it only really uses one, very repetitive melody

Gougou responds:

thx fo the help, it's a 2016 song and melody I remaked so it's not as good as my other songs
thank you for the comment! :D

10/10 for idea, not so good with the execution.

What you tried to create had (and has) potential to turn into one one of the best songs to ever exist imo, but you need to work a bit with the mixing of the sepaate sounds. This is the case when theoretically everything should be fine, melodies are top notch, every sound is amazing by itself, but the problem arises in the moment when you put it all together.

First of all this pretty-much white noise in the background just isn't fit for this kind of song, though it's mostly noticable in the baeginning. After the song picks up, it's not really so weird anymore. And while it's true that it is a decent way of filling in the background so that it's not empty, that doesn't mean it's necessarily the way to go here. I'm having lot sof problems like that myself.

Also the way you made the sounds, they became... "limited", they feel incomplete, and sometimes a bit unclean. It's not that noticable, but it ceratainly doesn't allow this track to grow as much as it should. The general idea was of course great, it makes the song really seem more "sleepy", as if from a different world almost.

There are just some more minor problems with the mixing, but overall it's a really amazing track. I'm harsh because I see potential that goes high to the starts here :3

PS: this can be definitely a very very personal opinion on the matter :)

[Dream Dash]

Nice song as always! This one's not necessarily my style, but really a great job on this! :)

DJVI responds:

Good to hear that! Thank you very much
