Great song; I love the composition, really creative.
Just a bit sad that the highest tension part of the song seems to be in the first half ;(

EDIT: I'm obviously aware of your time issue hehe. As for the structure itself, I got quite surprised by how the song unfolded (even though as I said, the later part seems a bit stagnant I guess) and that's some extra little bonus points for that imo

I've said it already, but yeah: great song.

LeruoME responds:

i kind of understand what you’re pointing out, I’d say my disappointments in this track are the fact that I kinda messed up the mix and I didn’t notice it, and the fact that the structure of the song is a bit weird
I had to be fast enough, in order to not be late, so I couldn’t allow myself to work hard on these points :/
I’m still really satisfied with the song, because I think I did a great job considering the context

[[NGUAC 2022] looking for a spark of light]

I feel like there's some mixing conflict going on, u sure everything's fine there? I hear some weird stuff (or at least I feel I hear, it's hard to describe because I'm not sure myself what it is), especially in the early part. Otherwise, I mean, hard to complain about anything.

I really like the feeling of the song, and the structure is very nicely thought-out and just feels fresh.

EDIT: feels cleaner now I think? Maybe it's also partly just me taking a new look at it

LeruoME responds:

So basically I had to add some compression because the drums were feeling too ”heavy” compared to the rest of the mix. I tried not to put too much compression but it seems that there could be some issues.

[bad]

Just listened to the version you sent on dc, and wanted to check if you didn't upload it already, and indeed you have lol.

The mixing IS a bit off, but the structure of the song and the melodies are so amazing so who cares *-*

LeruoME responds:

:D
the version i sent on dc is a little bit different, i changed the mix of some of the basses in the second part

[idealized romance remix]

Would have loved some major change in the song around the 4-5th minute, for example some Leruo-dubstep, would fit the song amazingly well imo :p

Still, great one, awesome job.

LeruoME responds:

not feeling good w the dubstep I make currently

[i dont really know]

This is truly amazing *-*

LeruoME responds:

^^ TY :D

[>>> your discovery ()]

I must say, I definitely prefer the usual Leruo style, but this is still good, would be a reaaally good game bg music tbh.

LeruoME responds:

i like to experiment, I want to be able to make a lot of different styles ^^

[music revolver]

The mixing feels off on this one. Sound design on point as always, but the whole thing sounds kinda sloppy.

(The YouTube upload sounds really good though, so uhhhh...?)

LeruoME responds:

theres no difference between the mix of the ytb video and the mix of this one
I guess the difference comes from the tonality, however i did just transpose the notes to make this one (the original version was like this but i changed the root note on the vocals version to match with the acapella I used)

[Go for It !]

This one starts deceptively slow... and then, well... it still stays slow actually, lol. But I'm amazed how much energy you managed to evoke there. I don't usually quite enjoy those slower compositions, but dang, you nailed that one well, especially thanks to how many different sounds you put in sections, and mixing them together amazingly well. Nice job on this one!

LeruoME responds:

not gonna lie, failed a lot of things in this one, the additions are really experimental and are more for training (for me)
the first one is more classic

[[NGUAC 2021] : flying thru space]

Really really love the calmer feeling of the song! And those melodies are sooooo gooooood aaaa :D

Is it just me, or is there some lack of sound clarity in the main parts of the song? The sounds seem "mixed together" in a really weird way.

EDIT: I see. It still sounds really good though, so w/e!

LeruoME responds:

fcked up the mix
I had to choose between a calm mix like that or a more compressed mix. I tried but I prefered this one
