Reviews for "Serponge (Request)"
Onefin responds:
As long as I get credit :D
i'll split this into 3 parts, one for each 'segment', each with its own rating.
Segment One:
Cons: The echo-y FXs are a bit badly mixed, especially at :10 and mostly :19, where they overpower a lot of the rest of the song. Also, the arps in the background (from :20 to :31) need some delay/reverb, as they sound too dry.
Pros:
Pretty much everything else is perfect, the melody is really nice and calming, and the sounds are just right.
Score: 4.5/5
Segment Two:
Cons:
At about :53-:54 the chord sound gets kind of loud (i think that's what happened?) and overpowers the rest of the instruments just a bit. Also, the drums (starting at :56) are way too quiet (specifically the hats and snare). The arps that begin at 1:03 are a bit loud as well, and the wet level on the reverb is a bit too high, plus the mixing kind of falls apart around that point.
Pros:
I love the atmosphere you created with this one. The sounds are perfect for the melody, and vice versa. It progresses nicely as well.
Score: 3.5/5
Segment Three:
Cons:
There are some overall mixing problems at ~1:37, but they're pretty minor.
Right at 1:51, the echo from the FX kind of cuts out some of the other sound, and the snare in that part is way too quiet.
Pros:
Can't get enough of dem FX in the first bit, nice and atmospheric. The ticking sound builds up tension perfectly for the drop thingy, which transitions perfectly. The instrumentation is also really great,
Score: 4/5
Total: 4/5, really great song!
Thanks for taking the time to read this!
Onefin responds:
Wow! Thanks for writing such an in-depth review!
First off... why did you start with cons? :/
Segment One - Eccentric:
So I'm bad at mixing XD I must have made those too loud, I understand
Now that I'm listening back, those arps do sound really dry :/ crap
The melody is inspired off of my beautiful percussion teacher lol
Segment Two - Ether:
Well, I mean, the chords are the melody, but I can understand. Also the chords are not getting any louder, I'm simply taking a high pass off of them. Perhaps I could have lessened the EQ on the low end?
Well, once again, when the arps come in, they're the melody, and so I had to make them sit on top of the whole thing. And the muddiness is probably due to the drums.
Segment Three - Envo:
...But 1:37 is pretty much the exact same as everything before it
Wow, you're right about that snare. Gosh dang it.
The ticking is custom made! Stock samples woo
Overall:
All my cons are mixing! :D WOO
1st song: House. I could definitely see a drop like that. 2nd song: Atmospheric. Literally what you already did but with more variety throughout the song. 3rd and final song. I think these two could really build up to be a great song. Here are some recommendations for the directions to take these songs in.
Sorry if this is long.
Onefin responds:
"Sorry if this is long" Don't worry - your response is actually relatively short, to be honest.
Thanks for directions! But they're really vague...
Really nice, You should definately try to make full versions of these songs!
I like the second one inbetween and I definately think that would be a great idea.
Onefin responds:
The problem with making full versions is that I would have to come up with a direction for each of them. All of the songs here were unfinished scraps compiled after making something that sounded cool but with no clear "next step", if you know what I mean.
Create Fields of Colors music, PLZ!
