[SPECTRIX - Dance All Night]

So, the pluck you're using as a main element is fine in the first drop - a little lacking but I'd say it's fine the first time we hear it, being that we're just starting out. After that, when we hear it again later on, it's noticeably lacking in power and could use a little something to give it some real 'oomph' - to maintain the energy that's been building to that point. This is one of those things that could be seen as personal taste, but I do think it's underwhelming. I think you could also afford to go just a little bit easier on the master compression.

My bigger gripe with this track, though, is that major parts of it are just totally out of time. I can't get in the groove when I'm being thrown off because things are out of tempo.

All that aside, this is decent. Keep practicing, and use your metronome. Trust in the metronome. It knows best.

[Above The Clouds]

My first thought is that the drums are too simple and static. A big part of DnB is high-energy/playful drumwork. The bass could also use a boost imo, it deserves to own its rightful place in the foreground. Otherwise, nice work. I appreciate how you kept the dynamic range intact.

[Cinematic Aah NeuroTrap Thingy]

This is over too soon, you're a monster bro.

[Into the Space]

Rather dissonant and the drums are clipping. Keep practicing your arrangements and lay off the compression.

Its old, im just reposting songs from my bandlab, i have got better at making music, thats why its "rather" dissonant

[Castle Dust]

This is really clean. Nice work. My only thoughts are that I'd change the snare to be less brushy and more snappy (higher pitch/shorter duration or something), but that leans into personal taste probably. Overall just really nice.

[Zaphkiel - Bulletlust]

This is fantastic. But sausage-d hard. Your loud moments don't need to be at a consistent 100% volume to make a banger.

[Merge With Me (NG Cut)]

I've got nothing to say besides that this is a treat to the ears. Go off.

AvizuraNG responds:

That's great to hear :D

[EvryFlare & Blizzrd - Lorelei]

Fun, well made, great job. My biggest gripe - and I know it's supposed to be an abrasive moment - is that I think the elements in the drop after 2:00 could stand to be just a *touch* more melodically fit with everything before/after.

[Control]

Very good, but like a lot of dub artists you're sausage-ing your master and leaving no room for dynamic range.
You can *do* that if it's to your taste, but there's a number of reasons you might not want to and I think this is objectively just too much.
Think of it this way: when everything is at 100% volume - nothing is.
