[Xtrullor - Event Horizon (Uxvelldius Remake)]

Wow, its pretty damn good

What I liked: the choir sound made the song for me, brilliant,
the sound design is simple harmor stuff but you made it work, which is very cool, i like how you made some good old yoys in harmor too, good job, the funky pattern you introduced at the start and back in at the end is amazing, very nice job

You could however work on: distortion is a big problem in your music, it kinda bitcrushes itself whenever anything epic is happening, do you put a fruity limiter on the master? I reccomend doing that if not, the other thing is that in your last 5 or 6 or even 7 songs you have used the same off tempo and off pitch riser/faller sound and that spoiled it more than anything else,

but again good job, thank you for reading :)

Uxvellda responds:

Hahaha, thanks! But honestly, I've consulted it three or more times in different gadgets but I heard no such distortions. And actually FYI, Fruity Limiter can also worsen such distortions so instead of putting limiters or stuffs, I'm just configurating EQ's and relevants. Otherwise, thanks for a nice and lifestyle-changing review! God Bless!

[Castlevania AoS - Cursed Clock Tower]

You need to work on your mixing a lot

DreyLand responds:

Yeah I know, everything about mastering is a total mess for me, I don't understand anything, I suck, literally ... I try to do better, but it's not easy!
Thanks to notice me about that, this is a proof I need to work more on this aspect :)

[Derpcat - I am rukkus]

Rukkus DirtyPaws and Derpcat go to a party late at night. They cant remember what happened but when they woke up the next day, rukkus was pregnant, 9 tedious months passed and then when the baby was born to the astonishment of many was a perfect blend between the three people, his first word was 'i' second was 'am' and third was 'rukkus' and now he is older, he sits at a computer all day everyday and makes awesome music like this.

(In all seriousness like i said on discord this is my new favourite thing, could you send me the preset for the chords you used in the drop, as my saws arent *saucy* enough, and i would just like to see how you do it)

11/10 for sure

DerpcatOfficial responds:

LMAOOOOOOO thonks

[Nefertiti]

You adapted the phasery au5 and xtrullory vibes but the things that get my goat is the fl legacy sounds you used, the drums being far to quiet (use kickstart) and that you used Magix for aspects of it, so by law you shouldnt upload this here. But its real nice to see that im not the only one to use styrus xD keep up the good work :)

Uxvellda responds:

Thanks a lot! But actually, I only used Magix as an orchestration DAW because I can't download good orchestra (for FL). And actually, my majority of usage for basses is Harmor. I only used Sytrus for drop leads. But again, thanks for your review. I appreciate your effort to help me!

[Dubstep Hero]

Your right, it isnt brilliant. the intro is one of those dreamy openings from a skrillex song, or just as good, but the drop is so hard to hear because of bad mixing and too loud white noise, Take this into consideration for next time :)

SpeTheof responds:

Thanks ^_^

[Love [Geometry Dash Version]]

The melody is nice. Its almost relaxing. But that sounds like fl keys, or some bad alternative. Try Keyzone Classic. Its free and realistic. A lot of the low score is due to the use of legacy FL sounds. Dont use them. Especially unedited. Im sure i used that growl in a project i never finished, thats another nice point. Also prehaps look at some tutorials about how to sidechain properly because its easy and makes a vast diffrence to your music. Add more background noise, like white noise which you can get from cymatics terror drums. I hope this review helps you. Have a good day :)

iorilicea responds:

I really appreciate your review!
This review can help me to improve in my music production. Thank you.

[Derpcat - Humanity]

Glad im following you. Very Xtrullor ish. I actually think he would quite like it! What plugins and presets (unless you make your own) do you use? I would quite like to invest in them to make things as flippin good as this :) heres 5 stars, im looking forward to your next track

DerpcatOfficial responds:

The plugins i use for the basses is actually harmor lol
and for the non xtrullor ish style i use serum to more like au5 or Virtual riot style But mostly harmor for everything from plucks to chords to everything else lol and if you want a basic tutorial about the "famous Phase Bass" lol you can add me on discord and join my discord server i answer on everything ;)

[Bloodbath]

I like dubstep. And this isnt dubstep. Its too random. And i appreciate that dubstep is meant to be random but this is another level. I also noticed to tagged it as deathstep. No. This is not deathstep. I see people seem to like it... im not sure how. Anyway jave a good day

[Ultimate Destruction (Remix)]

Its okay, nothing seems to have progressed since the original though. I was hyped for the drop that never came, it just stayed pretty simple the whole time

Perhaps i should try making one of these what do you think?

SuperSoniker responds:

It would be good.

[Virtual Reality]

Eyyy, its me of wubbix's server! This is a noice track youve got here! I like the older feel. I use serum and massive so it all makes sense x)

Froej responds:

haha thank you bud :D
