[Sunset Riders]

Love the vibes of this sound, its like a personal and carefree concert with your closest friends. A kind of intense relaxation to the end of a night. The use of a delay pedal or post added reverb for the main guitar really sells that vibe. Feels like this track has just a few more details to be unabashedly perfect. Either in the addition of lyrics or the inclusion of an emphatic build and release section. Really outstanding work.

[SUGAR RUSH (ur luv is sw33t)]

Great chiptune, lots of great choices in sounds and their application. The contrast between the thrashy crushed lower sounds with the cheery plinky and digital high sounds gives the track an awesome character to itself. The only gripe is with the mixing, everything sounds on the same level of volume which is not terrible, but causes to much focus on parts of the track that are there for support rather than the highlight which undermines said highlights. This track is incredibly fresh and never dawdles on one idea too long which makes it such a fun listening experience. Best of luck in the audio deathmatch.

[new jack (feat. KrisSoap)]

The quality in the mixing, backing track, and lyricism is phenomenal. This is a professional and crisp, it shows that you all know what you are doing and how good you can do it. Only thing that could make this better is if you posted the lyrics in the description. Can't wait to see what you all produce next.

could do that

[I'VE HAD ENOUGH]

The backing music is really solid with the synthetic hum and quality drum track. Very agreeable for this genre of music. The lyrics shined in their use of lexical stress and connotative usage. The lyrics did not spoon feed nor bewilder you like most independent artists tend to do which I feel is the highlight of the song. The only notable gripe is the audio mixing of the backing choir and main singer. Sometimes they would drown each other out, occasionally both would be drowned out by the deeper bassy hums, but both in ways that lacked a conclusive reason or intention. If this is a single/stand alone track then disregard the following; having a chorus verse to fade, close, or transition to the next song would probably help relieve the tension it builds as the final 20~ seconds just feels like it is building to a next verse. Overall a lot of good things individually that you could probably pick apart, apply, and focus in on for further works. A lot of potential I believe you have every ability to capitalize on.
