[Wily]

Very cool to see a chilled out version of this tune. There was a moment or two where the performance seemed to lag a tad (0:49) or feel unnatural (fill at 2:12), but overall very expressively played. Love the bridge with the bass solo. The patch itself on the bass might warrant changing to something like a fretless bass (right now it sounds like a really low register on a wurlitzer or something). Drums kinda break the chill with the crashes at the end, feels like a bit much.

Great tune dude, you got a knack for hitting an atmospheric lounge sound. Keep it up :)

[Wash Me Away]

I like it, very mellow. Good use of space and ambient pads. I would spend a bit more time cleaning up the guitar performance, timing-wise. It kinda sounds like it wants to be acoustic. Barring that, maybe switch to the neck pickup and go for a darker, kinda jazzy tone.

[Your Destiny]

Diggin the melodies, very catchy! I would like the pads and bass better with more of that NES vibe in it.

[Survival Gangster]

Nice kit sound! Warm, and well played (or convincingly programmed, a compliment either way). You should give some more verb to the snare and some of the synths to sort of put them in the room, so to speak. The synth horn tones are kinda distracting, only thing that kept me from a full 5 :)

Thanks! Yeah Addictive Drums sounds super human with the right accents.

Thanks for the tips on the verb! I hope I befriend a horn player eventually lmao

[A Lull For My Sorrow]

Good guitar sound, great use of ambience. Keep it up dude!

Navy-BlueSky responds:

Thanks a bunch!
