Honesty, not much advice I could give. Especially since I've only done one beep boop song so far and that was only recently. The only thing I could think of is the repetitive melody. Maybe try adding a new phrase to mix things up a little. If you're feeling brave then maybe do a key change. Other than that, it sounds amazing.

This song was supposed to be a loop for a video game so it is technically 30 seconds long, but I looped it twice in this recording, but thank you for the feedback!

I really love this piece. 0:34 everything fits perfectly apart from the drumming style. Maybe it's a style that I'm unfamiliar with but I just thought it was bizarre. Around 1:00 everything gets a little wild and over the top. Very good if you're trying to show that the state is very busy and buzzing. I don't really know what else to say. Good job.

I tried to do something new with the percussion in this one. The off beat snares aren’t something I normally hear in songs like this and I actually think I liked the way it turned out (gives the song uniqueness like the state). In the second drop I didn’t do this, though. Yes it’s pretty busy, perhaps not as busy as something like Georgia but still more so than Wyoming or Idaho. In my opinion the worst part of this song is the slightly repetitive 2nd half, but maybe I can make that fit the theme instead of changing too much about the song.
P.S. I knew you’d like this song, the chords were a little bit inspired by your unconventional chords

This is a very nice song. I really love the beginning. The start was really good at hooking the listener in and building for a big chorus. For a lot of the middle parts of the songs, I felt that the instruments didn't do the drums justice. The percussion in this piece is amazing. 1:32, This part of the song began to fall off-beat with the drums which cause a bit of discomfort for the listener. A good thing to work on in the future is to have a less all-over-the-place melody. It would be good if you were to create great-sounding harmony beneath the melody so that you can go much bigger with your composition. At the moment in this piece, I'm hearing the bass play the same thing as the lead instrument (which is good for some cases). When you do this too much, it begins to lose effect. Maybe even simple background chords or a groovy bass line could help liven up this piece. Towards the end of your piece, you really kicked up the drums and made it ten times more groovy. Another thing that I would recommend you avoid is pausing too much in a piece. It's good maybe once or twice in a piece to give effect when it's done in the right places. But doing it too much could break the flow of the music. I know transitioning from one phrase to another can be challenging, but this is where you have to become really creative. Maybe slow down the piece and have an ascending scale leading up to the next phrase or even a quick drum solo. Or just change instantly as I do in my song Falire. Overall, very nice piece and I think you're taking a good step in the right direction with this piece. I'm not sure how much or this makes sense because it's getting really long and I'm not going to go back and check for grammar mistakes.

Thank you very much for the tips tangeroni n 'cheese! I must admit that I went overboard with the repetition of the sentences. Regarding what I wanted to convey on the track: nothing specific, I only got inspiration one day jeje. I do intend to give a clear message, but I will do this in the lirics that I composed ... it will take a long time to record them, but I will record them!

Sorry for the late response. I like the very ominous beginning (Start-00:24) it really brings a lot of tension. Like you said, "I tried, for April Fools, to make a song that sounded very similar to a combination of my previous songs." Sounds a lot like your previous songs but I think this still deserves its own ground. Very repetitive melody (WHich isn't a bad thing since I think it fits with this piece. I see you also went with a 3/4 approach like my song "Rays of the sun" or whatever I called it. I really love the electro waltz feel of it. The ending is very abrupt and I think it would have complimented the piece better if it were to soften down a little at the end to give it a more concluding feel. I know this isn't really my ground to speak since I have done the same thing. Very good piece overall. I look forward to your next state.

50Steaks responds:

I’d argue that, while the ending is pretty bad since I finished this song yesterday, the flow of the track between sections is in desperate need of fixing. I’ll have to go fix that eventually and try to add on a section at the end to make it feel like an ending. Yeah, it does seem a lot like an electro waltz, unfortunately that’s not a genre so I just went with the generic “trance”.

This sounds amazing! I just kind of feel that it would have sounded better if you used real instruments like trumpets and stuff. Would have suited it more in my opinion. But other than that it sounds amazing! good job.

Veenomn responds:

Thanks :D. haha I mean I would use real instruments but I can't play any instruments.

Thanks for listening :)

Amazing job!

EezySeven responds:

Thanks!

Well done, it's a great piece. Maybe just try to use a different rhythm for the second part of the melody so that it will engage the viewer more. It is very repetitive (if you're going to aesthetic game background music then it's perfect) so maybe try to change things up by adding another instrument to complement it. Other than that great piece!

TrandafirTeodora responds:

Thanks!

what

Lpar8894 responds:

I don't know,

That's a very interesting intro melody haha. I really like the fast-paced primary melody! Well done. 1:45 Really great job on a hyped chorus (Idk if it's called that I'm music illiterate). Good job it sounds great!

supermelon-creations responds:

I don't know what it's called either, I'm not that good with words. but thx!!

Well done on this song! I really like the addition you made in 1:26 it really helped give the chorus more depth. A simple but groovy bass line, in the beginning, would have helped grab the listeners attention a bit more (unless it would have gone against the theme you were going for). I really love the whole chaotic theme of it. I'm not too sure what's happening in America currently. All I hear is that riots and that there are people dying there. I don't take any offence to this since I barely know what the whole George Floyd. All I know is he was killed by the police and people are having this whole race thing. It would be a really nice addition if there were quiet rioting and gunshots in 0:22 - 0:3` to further push the whole chaos aesthetic you were going for. Very good song well done (sorry for the long comment haha).

Note: I just realized my comment is longer than the description... oops.

50Steaks responds:

This is one of my best drops I think. The buildup and release tie in well and match exactly what I was trying to go for. I’ve never really made a song like this before, with a constantly changing main melody and instruments. FL doesn’t have stuff like that, in terms of gunshots or screaming, most of their samples may as well be rated R. I know you wouldn’t be offended by this, but in case someone rated it 0 stars because they thought I was trying to diss Floyd I didn’t want that to happen. I have a habit of doing long reviews on songs because simplifying my thoughts seems unnecessary. Giving a long review shows that the reviewer cares about the song and wants the artist to take their feedback seriously (instead of just the word “Florida” in a review on Florida). And here I go rambling.
