underscore8298 - Silent (Dynamic0's remix)

Share

Author Comments

Hello everyone!


This is my entry to the underscore8298's remix contest. The song is my third project in FL Studio, and I'm still learning how to create music with good atmosphere and (especially) good mixing.

Good luck to all contestants,

I think this remix is pretty good to be fair. It has a pretty nice dynamic melody and really cool instruments complimenting it. To be honest though, I agree with underscore on the mixing aspects. The lows and highs are too quiet, so the mix ends up sounding quite hollow in a way. Try paying attention to that on your next tracks!

This has a lot of potential!

Dynamic0 responds:

Thanks for the review!

Judge review:

Creativity: 29/40
This is quite a lot the same as the original, just with different instruments. The last part definitely saved you here. Structure was very sound, although quite the same as mine. I wish I could have seen more of your style come through here, Dynamic0! Still a very fun listen, however, and that last part where you put in your own melody and kind of jammed out to it was very nice.

Technical: 17/25
The mixing could have been a bit better, and everything feels a little messy. Especially how quiet the drums and bass are. It also feels like there are a lot more mid-high frequencies than low, but I can’t prove that for sure so I won’t count off for that. Just keep improving!

Atmosphere: 9/10
You said in your description that you were working on atmosphere, and it paid off! While technically unsound it still boasts a very engaging atmosphere that is very immersive for the listener. Great work here!

Instrumentation: 7/10
Your main lead is awesome! Adds to the uplifting feel of this track. Drums work well too, if they were a bit louder! Everything in the background is nice. Love everything except for the pads in the drop… they don’t feel very effective to me. It’s a very key part of the song. But it also sets up the rest of the instruments to shine in an interesting way.

Overall: 10/15
This is a fun remix, and the melodies you added were nice! Just would have wanted more of your musical personality on display. Mixing skills will come, just keep practicing and take peoples advice, that’s how we all improve!

Total: 72/100

Great job on this, there was a lot of experience in this contest, and I loved ALL of these tracks. Keep improving, keep creating, because the process of getting better is so rewarding. Thank you for participating, and make sure to listen to the other entries, everyone did great!

OVERSCORE responds:

All reviews were done on my BEST pair of headphones, which specialize in audio quality.

Dynamic0 responds:

Thanks for the massive judge review!

This is my fifth remix ever, so my remixes are not the best remixes you can see on NG. Thanks for appreciating my melody!

I think the mixing depends on what device are you listening. I mixed it with headphones and I heard the bass and drums quite a lot, now I'm listening to it on mobile and I'm lacking the elements you mentioned.

I'm glad you like the atmosphere! I'm trying to put a little bit of my feelings to every track, and I think it improves the atmosphere.

I've maded every instrument except drums from scratch, almost no presets (only sinewave used)! As you said, the pad is a key part of the song and from retrospective, it's too blurry.

Once again, thanks for the review!

Awesome remix! You hit the bullseye every time you make these, keep it up Dynamic0! Only 105 listens? WHAT!? You deserve more listens than this, a couple million will be good.

Dynamic0 responds:

Thank you so much!

🔥🔥🔥

Dynamic0 responds:

Thank you!

Nice remix!
