Bitbeak's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[every hyperpop song ever]

Clipping like a true pro now

[There Is No Food (HANL Cover)]

This is lovely, hadn't heard of HANL before today but am gonna have to check them out.

[Daily Routines]

Only downside was that it ended so soon, sounds like an opener for a longer track :D

[Around (First Move)]

Agree with fSYNCLIPSE on the mix comment. I really like the synth and guitar tones you're playing around with here they're just hella buried at points

emseeemotion responds:

Thanks for listening and for the feedback!

[It's A False Equivalency, and Quit Your Job]

Don't normally go for this style (Ennui Lofi Pop?) but this was an interesting listen. You've got Damon Albarn vibe on the vocals that honestly works pretty well over all... it's just that the track is a little too flat for me to want to come back for more.

Also, consider including the lyrics in the future, liked what I could catch overall but there was a lot I couldn't really make out.

emseeemotion responds:

Thanks for the feedback! I appreciate you taking the time to listen. :)

I'll update this with the lyrics.

[perhaps things will turn out better]

Very Tokyo Police Club adjacent kind of sound. Really dig the guitar playing on this track.

[End of it all]

Not a huge fan of the rattly/floppy disk type synths that occupy a good amount space here, but I like the flow and bounce of this track a lot :)

[4. Waves]

Very Wish you were here era floyd vibes. It's a little repetitive (mostly noticeable in the background instrumental), but engaging for a listen. Nice playing.

daneforth responds:

thank you so much for the listen
I tend to write conceptually and in theme with this album I like to have a narrative assigned individually as well. The album is primarily about acceptance and I wanted the wave of emotions during the particular mental approach to acceptance to be the drive in the track. Even though there is over 60 project tracks, adding the bass and wave to the dominant mix really added character to life.
I hope you enjoy other tracks from the album too, I have 6 more to upload :)

[Translucence]

Relaxing. Like the space you made here :)

LLAAPPSSEE responds:

Thank you. Funny to see this frontpaged after a year has passed. :D

[Bridges (Ms. Fortune)]

Did you change anything from the original upload? Either way, still a jam dude

ConnorDeVaux responds:

Not much before I couldn't, had to skip town before I could. Thanks a lot mane :)

Edit:

I brought the melodica more forward so you could hear it, messed with the guitars so you can hear them a bit better and fixed some vocals. That's really all.
