post in the replies a song you consider to be your best, and a song you consider to be your worst. it can also be your personal most and least favourite as opposed to "best or worst".


my own worst is probably this one, its just plane boring tbh, and not very well mixed.


this probably isn't actually my best song, but its my personal favourite:


Worst? Definitely this one


My favorite one though... This one is tough, but I guess it's this one:

Funny enough, these two were back to back.


This one failed memorably because I tried to emulate a style I had no experience with, and wound up creating something that would be just milquetoast if not for the horrible choice of lead synth. And then I submitted it to a contest.


This one, on the other hand, is just pure unfiltered Thetageist. You can understand my mind after you listen to this (from a stylistic standpoint rather than in the context of the description - I don’t drink.)


Someone please help me revive my clubs

https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1143134 Probably my best

https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1135285 The worst if only because my Strat was struggling to work...you can hear such awful noise from the jack.

well well well,

worst songs I have a lot but this one is the king of them all. Idk what I was thinking, I know this is a STMPD style bass house but wow mixing is absolute utter disgusting.


best one, well uhhhhmm idk maybe this one

this track is basically like really experimental, mixing is still kinda bad but its me showing off my sound design. It might not be good sounding for you but for me it is, also this was my first track in Ableton.


Artist please check out my art, and musician please check out my music.

Oooo, best and worst. I have a very very hard pick for the worst, as the early stages of the 50 States series was honestly quite awful all around, but the worst would either be Vermont (bad take on a hip hop beat) or, the one I’m throwing here, Maine.

As for my best, I’d have to probably go with a recent one: Newer Hampshire. It’s musically the best I’ve done I believe, especially mixing as well.

Best:

Worst:


I can't listen to any of the songs I made in 2021 as it's all just pure garbage as I had no idea what I was doing.

Honourable mentions:

It sets the mood so well for the thing that I'm working on but tsn't catchy.

The version with lyrics is cringe but I like whatever bass I was using for this and the way it pans. I kinda want to remake it now.

I could not do harmonies for the life of me.

I didn't bother reuploading this when I migrated to Newgrounds as the lyrics are nearly incomrehensable as I had no idea how to use UTAU properly.

I mean I dunno, kind of a tough choice to be honest...


I guess you could say my "worst" song would be the time I made a theme song for a fictional 90's cartoon about Sploot (the character by UnknownSpy). Since it's not really my style of music, and it's the first one I uploaded to Newgrounds.



My best song though would so far have to be the 90's grunge cover for the Poppy Playtime menu theme song. I don't play that game, but I know that it took place during the 90's, and I wanted to make a song that sorta centered around that 90's theme.

my worst is definitely this sing. This was the first song I made after making an attempt a year before and while I don’t really think it’s bad. It’s definitely the worst song I’ve released.


Now this was made when I had more experience so it’s easily one of my best and I’m still proud of it


A dumbass

I'm calling this a "song" even though it's meant to be a four-track album because it's only 3 minutes long. This is the worst thing on my account which makes sense as it was the first thing I uploaded here.


I still stand by the fact that this is my best work to date.

Response to Drop your worst and best song 2023-10-01 20:36:08


This is a very simple choice for me really



This was my first song that I put effort to have sound good, but now I look back at it as not even being a song



And this is my most recent song, the progression is real

Seems like everyone else's worst songs in this thread are at least alright. On that note, here's an affront to music I made six and a half years ago when I had very little idea what I was doing. It has almost no redeeming qualities whatsoever, and instead has the following qualities:

  • Manages to make a minute feel agonisingly long
  • The entire first half of the track sounds incredibly similar to the first half of the previous track (which was almost as bad as this one)
  • The worst buildup you've ever heard, for three times as long as you should be hearing it for
  • Yes, that was supposed to be a drop.
  • Ayoy sound effect. You'll know it when you hear it, and then when you hear it, and then when you


Here's the track I'd currently consider my best. I think it could still do with some improving but overall I like how it turned out. Also, this wasn't intentional, but I've just noticed that this track goes in the complete opposite direction from the previous track's buildup problem by (sort of) subverting the typical dubstep buildup altogether. Make of that what you will.

(Also, for anyone who isn't into dubstep, this is my best non-dubstep track. It also has a cool URL.)

This is highly subjective. And every time I make a song I think is my best work it invariably never resonates with others the same way. I will have to think about this considering my catalog is 400+ tracks deep lol
