[AIM - Night Flight]

bro thats INSANE, i genuinely wanted to use this exact piece for my original submission but I just felt I couldn't get the right idea so i changed directions. genuinely makes me so happy to see it still get used. i really wanted to see wormcastle in AIM n here it is. youve got it on fleek bro, absolutely correct with the lo fi vibes. keeping it as the essentials with synths, bass n drums suits the band too. cheers!!

LuckyDee responds:

Damn, what are the odds... Would have loved to hear your take on this piece, and thanks for the love bro <3

[AIM 2025 - i might go for a jump after this cup]

feel like you express yourself well, n did the piece justice as well. I dig it a lot!! what did you do for the drums? cymbals almost give me the sense of someone playing e-kit n using its sounds. whatever you did is cool. hang in there bro, and keep it up

Yoshiii343 responds:

thanks!
i use spitfire's LABS for the drums. not the most natural sounding stuff, but it works

[love of two idiots]

usually I'm not very good at keeping up with the audio portal, so during monthly voting I'll at least put the time in to give listens to the songs you can vote for, n this one just got me. hella dig the vibes, the progression is kinda nostalgic in a way but i feel like you struck a good balance of having some complexities without compromising a simple pleasant listen. easily in my top 5 for the month bro!!!

only thing im curious is if you have a ride doing straight eighths at 1:58 while you got the crash breakdown happening? completely possible for a drummer but would be an interesting groove

VirtuaLIkimono responds:

I'm glad you liked my song!!!

At the moment you're talking about, I was inspired by some unknown Japanese alternative rock track.

unfortunately, unlike guitars, I don't have real drums, so I can't say if it's possible to play something like this in reality. I used the drums from the plugin, so meow

[lucid dreaming over wifi]

almost reminds me of the band dealership and some of their calmer songs mixed with their electronic sounds they go for sometimes. usually vocals are what pulls me away from this kind of music but it works here, its nice. i dig it a lot

BestGuess responds:

ty that means a lot!! i gotta check out dealership idk them

[One Btn Bosses: Revolution Resolution]

duuude im really looking forward to the full ost for this game!! good as hell

ComposerEvans responds:

Thanks dude! We release on 6th August! I'll be putting the soundtrack up everywhere I can and I'll try to put it all up on here!

[You Wouldn't Download a Star]

the entire process between reading your art post about the blender/aseprite work and listening to the audio piece and seeing you how attached a specific visual to your piece is really cool, and easily deserves 5 stars. hell, more than that on NG since 5 stars can be such a common rating. its fantastic, and inspiring, since I've always wanted to get better with DAWs to try and make my own songs and draw art for a visual aspect of the music, its such a strong form of expression. in short, amazing work dude. love both the art and the song. especially the techy voice at the end, I forget what voice generation that is specifically but still. hella good stuff

TheMordent responds:

Thanks!!! That really means a lot. I love trying to match my songs with the cover art. The vocaloid I use is Synthetic Automatic Mouth (SAM) from chipspeech!

[dissonance]

dude?????? you threw me in a for a complete loop that left my mouth open, that was such a sick change of pace. absolutely welcome in my book

xoquinnxo responds:

thanks so muchh!! i was really going for a calm before the chaos type of thing with this and i meant to throw everyone off guard who listened and im very glad u think i did it well!

[Chips Lips]

I love the way the percussion sounds in this
it still seems chip but it still has a certain sound to it that I love!!!
also bababooey sound effect
incredible

supermelon-creations responds:

Thx and I put quite some focus on the percussion so thx, it's a mish mash between 8bit based and edm based percs, and I got the balance really well

[Eyy Ah Right]

yo
these vocal chops are dope man
I like the overall feel to it, I guess the only thing I would say is the vocal chops feel a little repetitive after a bit, but its not like really big
nice job

KadeDevl responds:

ye agree
