Real nice to tune out to, didn't realise I had heard through the entire song before it was over because it just fit in so well in the background

It's good. It has decent effects and cuts, but the general opera feel doesn't appeal much. Quite honestly, taking the sample as a whole, detracts from the instrumental aspects. There are some pretty good parts, but overall isn't as great as it could've been.

Dammit, where's Rook when you need her ;w;

(seriously, an average rating of the stuff she sends is like 8.41/10 on my scale which is pretty damn good. despite her typical music palette not being what i would've listened to prior to her submitting stuff, that palette has some crazy good songs with power, drive, and overall great execution. she's got a damn good ear.)

Would likely make a good beatmap. My mind connects it to Igorrr for some reason. I like it though

Sounds like it's split between wanting to be lo-fi chill and a heavy rap track

6/10 I guess, classic ear-worm but Jamiroquai is not my thing.

The typical upbeat funky sort of song. It's good. Not much else to say about it. Decent outro.

8.17/10

A lot of energy and vigor. I like how it progresses. The guitar goes through some interesting tricks and concepts and the variety keeps it fresh, and yet it's actually pretty consistent in its mood. It's a fun song. The outro gets cut off but I'm alright with it.

Currently out on a night-time walk, fits very well to the mood I'm in. Nice floating vocals, with a nice enough rhythm to keep you keyed in throughout the song.
Also a sucker for uh treble? (Blaming translate if that comes across differently than intended)

Unfortunate.


6.91/10

With some searching, I managed to get it to play elsewhere. Not exactly something I'd listen to. It's a bit lacking, but later on, it gets better and actually can get a bit satisfying. I'm definitely a sucker for those chords of the ambient pads in the background.

Perhaps I can catch a Rook this time?

7.6/10 Fresh but the vocals introduced halfway really break this away from being faceless imo. The build up at 4:00 - 4:25 is dope.

Hiho Achwo and thanks, your new ava is looking great too, the gradient in the skull is a really nice touch.
How's your music coming along?

Well this was a pretty interesting song. A nice intro. The whole song itself was solid and everything sounds good. Though, I was starting to expect something heavy to drop but it felt like it was hovering from a bridge and a buildup throughout the majority of it, so that was a bit awkward. Lovely outro, the last minute had been satisfying to listen to.

Well, I've actually had some trouble getting things done recently, I've been pretty unmotivated but I'm trying to sneak in a few updates whenever I can. I don't know if I'll be able to certify whether or not the song will be well-polished. I've got 4 days left, so I guess time will tell.

I changed the name of my soundcloud account, by the way. i'd like to know what you think: https://soundcloud.com/achromatism

Just four more days.

Nice beat. I really like how serene the intro sounds until it breaks into a more gritty tune. The breathing is also a good touch, or how the break at 1:36 keeps going just long enough to make you believe the song is over before continuing. The small breaks around 1:56 also sounds a bit like someone's out of breath, while the ambient noise in the background seeps in and the main melody weakens. Gives me an impression of someone running away.

Rook
5, I'm just not a big fan, the chorus and its build up is the only part I like and it's overused in tv adverts and the like.

Oof that's a shame about your lack of motivation ;v;
I like the name change, I think Achromalia as a word sounds better though, just phonetically richer and has a niceness to it. Achromatism looks good too, but maybe I'm biased cus I just really like your username.

Lovely intro. The first couple minutes are pretty slow-paced and eventually get a tad repetitive, despite it being really nice to listen to. However, that makes the change in 2:46 even more satisfying, and the vocals that soon follow sound quite nice. The mood is somewhat satisfying. It's just not quite as effective as I'd like it to be, for whatever reason. Nice outro, and the song is pretty good overall.

6.2/10, Minimal but good atmosphere, can't say I enjoyed all of the sounds here though, like 2:25 was just unpleasant.

Really calming. I enjoy this, despite the awkward country hometown feel, it's actually used well. I dont know what to say about it really, it's just really nice. Easy to listen to.

7.8/10 Lovely lovely, it's just so serene. I don't know if I like the mixing though, rain sounds are a little too loud for me.

Achromalia
8.14/10

More folky, orchestral, and instrumental stuff. It sounds pretty good, has an interesting mood, and the instrumentation is pretty good. Some parts of it makes me reminiscent of the soundtrack in the original Diablo game for the town of Tristram. At some point a particular noise or transition made me think of the Protoss and Terran soundtracks in the original StarCraft.

This is a pretty good song in terms of an experience, and would work well as an accompaniment in a movie soundtrack. I like the progression, and there's a lot of nostalgia-inducing changes. I feel like if this were to be in a game or movie, it would be really memorable. It just has that sort of quality.

Holy shit it's also quite the immersive song, I'm starting to imagine some sort of world, like within the 13th, 14th, or 15th century era or something.

Pretty damn good overall.

7.5/10 Pretty gnarly, the energy is great. The voice-lines really balance this out from being too much.

A bit too heavy for my taste, but I like the bass progression

Achromalia
7.54/10

Hmm. It's a bit quiet, but that's alright.

The intro is alright, and has a bit of drive to it, and gets right down to business by 0:09. The progression is good, and I like the underlying tone to an extent. For some reason it didnt do all that much for me, but it was still decent while it lasted. It has a good bit of energy through the song, and definitely feels like it's emotionally charged to some degree.

Nice.

I really like the underlying and beautiful melody, while the fast beat keeps the energy going.

7/10 Its fine, really love some parts actually. I was so sick of that sax by the time it finished though, jesus.

Achromalia
7.73/10

Hmm. An interesting one for sure. 1:25 was cool, but I expected that to repeat a bit more frequently. Pretty good, actually. I dont know what else to say about it though, it just sounds generally nice.

Rook
7.8/10 I mean, It's gorgeous but the voice sounds really add nothing to this, they're kinda silly actually. If it didn't have those it's an 8/10, just makes me warm listening to it even if it's nothing spectacular.

Achromalia
8.32/10

The intro sets it off to a good start. The vocals are pretty nice. The whole song itself is serene and ambient. I love that atmosphere, by the way.

So I'm about ready to release Inertia. I'd like to know what you think of it so far. I dont know if there's something it'd need work on and I'm a little nervous about the final result ;w;

i hope this isn't an oof

Well, lemme break this chain of Achro and Rook rating music with a not so good review.

8/10

I like the song, but in some parts I was kinda expecting a dubstep drop like some of Xtrullor's songs. If I were to map this in osu, I would most likely skip the first 50 seconds of the song. I don't make music myself, and I can't really just criticize on most music, so I might be picky.

3/10 Just not my thing I guess, found it incredibly boring and uninteresting actually, nothing about it was soothing or majestic to me.

Welp, ones thing for sure, you shouldn't be nervous.
8.9/10 Greak work Achroo ;v ;
I forgot how sophisticated this was, still sounds fresh as heck, the atmosphere is so hooking and really well achieved, the melody is perfectly simple and catchy. I don't think you should need to change anything about it, I personally have nothing I dislike about it anyway and it definitely rivals a lot of the best recommendations you've gave me on here. Sorry, I don't like being so unhelpful and repeating myself, but it is impressive. I don't agree with MinNin about adding a drop or something, it's not that type of electronic music I'm assuming and it definitely justifies itself the way it is now.

I get sort of a "This war of mine"-vibe from it in the beginning, or some other slightly gritty indie title. I enjoyed it.

That's actually a pretty damn good intro. I love how it progressed through the first minute or so. Just when it started to feel a tad repetitive, it changed for the better with an amazing bridge, leading to a really interesting buildup. The drop was actually satisfying, something I'd definitely make, judging by that despairing mood. I though it ended a bit too soon though, more could've been done with it. Eventually it leads to a break, which was still nice to listen to. From there on, it was great. That piano outro was fucking lovely.

All in all, a great experience.

Some pretty good song-building here, I like how it progresses. It flows together well and sounds well-made.

Interesting, it plays around with a lot of stuff, seemingly blending in certain genres, and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Sounds like the stuff I used to listen to when I was 8 or 9, more on the Trance side of things.

Jon Hopkins...?

Sounds... familiar.

Hell yeah. I've always enjoyed Ikeda's work, and the dataplex series was nice.
