[These Stars Are My Home]

Something different

So this one was kind of "DIFFERENT" and you really do bring out some nice style of sounds this was some strange sound and had a very "SCI-FI" futuristic kind of vibe about it, it was a tad slow so maybe theres a way you could speed it up somehow, anyways really nice work here.

Cool that you say it's nice.

As far as speed goes, this song is 120bpm

Typical bpm for a synthwave song: https://getsongbpm.com/song/vice-point/gpE7MY (119bpm).

[Forest of Twinkling Lights]

Nice sound

Love the "PIANO" later on in this this piece starts off slow but seems like you could have started it off faster, doesnt really build up to later, Now here was something that jumped out at me with style and a good vibe, you have a good track here that brings a little extra to the front, And nowto end this, but not before I coment on your piece, there is some slight work to be done but you still know what you want and like and thats all that really matters so keep up the good sound work its looking good sofar, cant wait to see what you decide to work on next.

SourJovis responds:

Thank you. Glad you liked the piece overall.

With the thing you mention to improve, you mean the 1 minute intro before the piano part is too slow? You'd like it better if that part was shorter or wasn't there at all? Or do you think that part of the song simply should have been better, with more instruments for example?

The intro of the song was a part I struggled a lot with. I myself am easily bored or distracted, that's why I usually make songs that get to the point and have a clear melody and tight structure. Other people sometimes blame me for making my songs too short. Many other musicians make songs with lots of variations, improvisations and parts that are there to set a mood, but are not the meat and the potatoes of the songs. More like the vegetables. Either I end up being uninterested in (that part of) the song, or really impressed if it's well executed, because it's something I cannot do well myself.

Either way, I felt starting of with the piano immediately would be too sudden. Especially because I wanted this to become the opening nummer of the second disc of a double album. I also felt a slow mysterious intro would work well for this song. It's just something I'm not too good at, so perhaps it lacks a little in the execution.

I'll keep your suggestion in mind, listen to what other people have to say, and perhaps I'll change it later.

Decent

so this was pretty decent I like the "SLOW" theme here but it does seem to lack some more elements on it like some "DROPS" and "BUILD-UPS" you have some really intense sound but it also needs more push and much more build up so just think about adding more stuff to this but anyways nice work here.

[B-H S Untitled 1]

Very nice

So this was pretty good and I really like this track you have here, You braught a "DEEP" sound and that was pretty good, but for "TWENTY-EIGHT" seconds it was a bit short so my little tip here is that you bring out some more quality and make it longer much more drops and build ups would be a plus, anyways good stuff here.

[STAR-WARZ]

Very well done

So here was a nice track I love starwars so this was an interesting piece and I have to say the voice and sound together really made this a top notch piece it did go a little long but overall this was just a solid piece of work and I loved every bit of it from start to finish so props to you on making a really good quality piece and great sound to one of my favorite themes so keep doing what you do best

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Really nothing at all you have an amazing piece and does not require any changes or upgrades at all

~X~

[Only My Way (solo)]

Decent

So this was kind groovy and nifty the guitar sounds could be smoother and for only twenty three seconds this was actually not that bad but my advice would be more deeper guitar sounds different progression of guitar sound and some linger moments in this whole piece as it was kind of short but overall this was a good short track here but could be better

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
As suggested some more guitar sounds and longer too

~X~

[DBZ Ending]

Pretty good

So you have some pretty good stuff here I'm not all that familiar with the new wave style but from what I hear on this one it has a nice progress and some nice variety on it so it was kind of cool and I really enjoyed how this played along so as for improvments I'm not too sure but more mixture of other instraments and sounds would be cool just an idea to throw your way

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
More mixtures of other instraments and sounds to ad a little unique background effect

Oof, sadly this is so old this barely represents what I do now this is like comparing a hot smoking BBQ babe and a cheapest cut of the meat from a 7-11 with sauce and no flavor. Check my current stuff out at https://tetrahedrix.newgrounds.com/ & https://tetrahedrix.bandcamp.com/

[The Ambient Descent(Dj Sonik)]

Nice melody

So this one has a nice beat and s nice melody all wrapped up in one great sound piece you really know how to make it all come alive. I wouldn't mind some faster beats and tempo of the melody but that's just an idea to think about you do have a nice element of suprise in this track and that's what I liked about it so faster tempo would be pretty awsome anyways nice job here

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
A faster tempo

~X~

[Delerium]

Wow nice

So this was something different here with the kind of audio it is I really enjoyed this for the guitar you had on it and the vocals or what I heard in it was pretty cool you have some nice and interesting styles in here and a good mixture of sounds here so nice job here more vocals more guitar but anyways this was pretty cool stuff also I wouldn't mind if this was somewhat longer just a bit

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
More guitar more vocals and longer
