[Terminal Madness]

Yoooo the panning is so freaking cool. I love the level of goofiness this song has. Would absolutely replay a million times and still enjoy it every single time. Fantastic work!!

[Flesh Fields Miasma]

HUNGER FOR YOUR FLEEEEEEEESH
HUNGEEER FOOOR YOUR FLEEEEEEEESH
Superb sound design as always. Super fan of the creepy and hella-cursed characteristic vibes of yours as always

LD-W responds:

Design work for track ideas like this are some of the most fun to do, also some of the easiest for myself since that's the kind of thing I've been toying with for almost a decade at this point!

The most difficult part really is balancing everything well and controlling the dynamics of enormous transitionals and percussion libs. When you've got multiple textures, sound effects, weaving leads/arps, percussion and voices all at once, aggressively cutting off unwanted frequencies on every single channel and making very regular use (but also very delicate use) of Multiband and Parallel Compression is insanely-vital. Getting it to a 100% satisfactory state will never be accomplish-able, but it's 'fine' enough for the state the project is in, even if I can sit here and nitpick issues with the export. EWSC Platinum's Wordbuilder is also a fiddly pain to get it to shout out English stuff properly, that admittedly took quite awhie to get down haha

Even with Smart-Disable on, this was hitting 100% load at certain parts on my Ryzen 7 3700X (even with my buffer adjusted and also my project PPQ turned right down), so the processing was getting pretty immense, especially the 1:37 to 1:53 section where trying to play it back inside my DAW was just met with "KRRRRKKRKRKRKR". I neeeeeed some extra cores haha

Glad you enjoyed the piece l a d

[Triple Death Threat]

Oh my goooooooood so epiiiiiiic!! I loved that duet with the guitar against the violin and the choirs at the background!
This is some top-quality experiment, amazing work! Good luck in the competition as runner-up, I'm sure you'll crush it if you get the opportunity.

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Thanks! I'm glad a lot of people are liking the duet section. At that point I was trying to think of something to do to keep the track interesting, and to give the last part a bit of a different feel. Sorry for the late response!

[A Dream]

This piece is so loaded with mistery and magic I almost feel like I get transported into the world you created within this piece. Amazing piece of work man!!

Everratic responds:

Thank you for the review! I'm glad the song was able to take you there :D

[Talurre - Cruel Future]

Bruuuuuh this sounds so cool!!
And look at those dynamics MMM those are some sexy ass looking dynamics lmao
Great work and good luck on the contest!

[What Lies Ahead (NGADM)]

Lol it does look like a pair of glasses! Hahah loved your track, was full of P O W E R and really fun to listen ^^
Good luck on this round man!

FateModified responds:

Thanks Albe! Good luck to you too! :)

[some shit idk]

very good shit 👌

[Jack's Box]

I loved this x3000! The song was really entertaining, the part with the vocals was soothing, and major 7th arpeggios are always a win. Great work man! ^^

Jacob responds:

I don't remember life before 7th chords and arpeggios. It must have been dark.
Thank you!
