Mmm. Mhm. Yes that's tasty.

I don't know if you've ever heard of Day One, but that synth definitely gives me similar vibes.

I love all the little modulations and perc hits occurring throughout the song. It's the little things that make the big picture!

Reading through your notes, I noticed the 20-200 Hz comment with the bass. I'm also told similar things about my tracks (see Escape), so maybe I'll take a look at doing that. The only concern is that perhaps with all that bass, it muds up and you don't get as much clarity. Be especially careful in moments like that in-between section with mostly sub and pad, there was one note (2:09ish) that was a little harsh on the ears. Still, I'm gonna take a look into that for my own tracks!

3xosc is so underrated. I may not use it anymore cuz I switched to Baebleton, but I miss it every passing day.

Great track, it wouldn't surprise me at all if round 1 went to you. Keep it up!

Hey there, Solarex! I'm kinda surprised to see your review tbh!

Never heard of Day one, sadly.

The little modulation and perc hits are just kinda my thing. All about that tiny detail stuff. It's my favorite thing to stuff into pieces.

The bass thing, yeah. I love the 100-200hz range so much but people can't hear it. :( :( :( Instead, sometimes I like doing this - take a kick, cut literally ALL THE BASS out of it up to about 150hz, then just use a deep bass with a sub included as the bottom of it. That way you can have your kick tuned to the music *and* link your bass to the kick which makes a super solid sound. I'm not entirely sure what you mean by a harsh sound, the only thing I can think of is that the reversed bell drop was too loud. It'd be awesome if you could clarify that. :)

3xosc is awesome. I can't wait to play around with it using it as a carrier for vocodex. Imagine if I used more shit than a couple waveshapers, a bass amp, a bitcrusher, and a lowpass filter for making dubsteppy wubzes.

No idea who'll win this one. That's up to the judges! :P I think all three pieces in our group are excellent. Yours is very well-produced and has your classic insane-amount-of-surprisingly-clean-mid-to-high-range-arpeggios thing going on while Tyven's has some really creative progression IMO. So we'll see!
