[Dayfever Season]

I just heard the original: holy smokes you turned it upside down lmao, stellar work

I gave for granted that the trumpet was taken from the original but it's not, and it doesn't sound like MIDI at all: if you played it yourself, how did you go about recording it?

TwelfthChromatic responds:

Thanks for the kind words. Actually, I used Session Horns Pro by Native Instruments for the trumpet at the beginning, and the brass towards the end of the track :)

[0i00 - Ruins [NGMT24]]

This could've done great in the competition, too bad for the shitty internet. Good job!

If I said earlier that your last song reminds me of Diana starshine, this feels right out of her album collaboration with galen tipton lmao

FayBay responds:

[ACROSS THE BELT]

This reminds me so much I made early on 5 years ago, but like, with way more effort put in lol. The sections flow smooth like butter and the motifs are really memorable. The only nitpick I have is that the mix is quite flat, especially the drums. Compression and saturation work wonders. Anyway, amazing composition, I think my fave I found among the undiscovered artists!

YoannBB responds:

Oh wow I didn't expect anyone to see this. Thanks a lot!
The mix is what I'm trying to improve the most ATM because I really can't figure out how it really works lol, so thank you for the suggestions!!

[Kriss]

Well done! I think the drums could use a tad more bite and maybe, leave the bass some space on the spectrum. Other than that, it's good!

BeefyReef responds:

Yeahhh I realized long after i finished it that the kick is not hitting as i want it to, but thank you for your input :3
