wow, i really like this! you have your own style, seems like a mix of acid notation and creo. I really love this progression and melody, but there's a little bit to work on on the composition and mixing side.
Some areas have the pitch slightly raised like 2:14 for example, and i can't really tell if that's intended, but it doesn't seem very necessary.
I love that chip-tune part at 2:02, and those acid notation/creo slidy synths throughout the song, although sometimes they're layered over other melodies that don't slide so it doesn't really fit.
The drops are really nice with a great use of sidechain, but they repeat for a little too long and you could try keeping it interesting by adding claps or high hats in the second half of each drop.
At 3:14 the sharps in those melodies should be natural so that they harmonise with the chord progression and sound correct overall, but apart from that they are a rally nice touch to the song and they add variety.
The wubs are also pretty cool, it would be great if you used more of them instead of just the drop start at 3:14. That little scaling thing at 3:26 also adds a really nice touch.
I like the smooth ending as well, although it's a little unexpected, maybe try adding some chords or bass to harmonise it.
Forgot to mention 0:48 sounds really nice with the chords and sliding synth. sorry this review is so messy lol
Ok so overall this is a really nice piece, and i love the design, composition and especially chord progression. It's just a matter of music theory by making sure all the notes fit, and variety, specifically rhythmically at the drop. Better than anything i've made xd.
Contact me if you want feed back for anything else you make and i'll happily review it, because this one was really fun to review and listen to.

Keep at it!

By the way i know you from samifying by BlowMypooh, you've probably played that level, if not it's awesome.

EDIT: Hmm, too keep it in tune if you can't hear it you just have to make sure everything stays in the same key, so it can be simple or complicated depending on what you make. I'm pretty sure the key is A# minor, It's mainly just the part at 3:15 where it goes down to A-Natural a few times. A-natural can fit, but only if the current chord for that area also uses an A-natural, which it doesn't, so an A-flat might fit it better. This might be hard to understand and it was hard for me to find out all the note names lmao. but it's pretty simple, just keep a scale guide or something open when making a song.

Samifying responds:

Thank you for taking your time to help me out here!! Im still learning stuff and every piece of information i can get helps.

Ive nevere played instruments or learned music theory so chord progressions and what notes fit with eachother are really challenging for me to create.

Ive heard from more people now that some things in this track sound out of tune or wrong but my brain can't hear it so I wonder what that's about...

Is there any special place i can learn about this stuff so i can't make those mistakes again?

Also I agree with the "repetitive" point you made. The thing is I'm really struggling to find anything new to add. It's probably my inexperience or my fear of wasting time on experimenting more.

Anyway i appreciate the feedback a lot and ill look in to all of these aspects!! Thank you.

nice very chill loop!

Tagiito responds:

Thanks!

Wow uh sorry for being 4 years late on this but I found it in a gd level (pls don’t hate me) and instantly recognised it as you’re own, all your songs have personality that can easily be recognised. Anyway, it’s awesome.

Cacola responds:

aye yr good, most of the people who find my music found it through GD lol. Thank you very much for the kind words!

Epic synth choice and drum samples, love the side chain and rhythm. But wasn't that remix contest like a year ago or something?

DerpcatOfficial responds:

yea it was i didnt have enough time and decided to make it an actual remix release and not for a contest since its one of my best works

wWWOOOOoooww. That is pretty epic ngl. I love the synth and drum choice, chords, and my favourite is the side chain and placement of the kick drums. I'm late to the party but eh. Amazing drop btw, amazing drum fill at 2:35, amazing mini arpeggios, amazing portamento, god damn his whole thing is amazing UWU. Usually it takes at least a few listens for me to like a track but I love this first time hearing it so congrats. 17/10 underrated next level stuff hope you see this bye.
ps you have my rare favourite.

R3VMusic responds:

thanks bro, comments like these are what keep me going <3

The beginning kinda sounds like burning sands with a little twist, and it’s ok. But damn, the drop, you beat @boomkitty THATS RIGHT. I summon you. You beat his own song’s drop by a bit. Epic

DerpcatOfficial responds:

yeah he made burning sands because of this song lol

Pretty cool. I think the key change and mood change is kind of sudden and could use a transition of some sort. The main melody reminds me of something I would make. It needs more of a drum beat, but overall it’s pretty nice. Keep at it!

Dim-J responds:

Thank you for telling me your opinion and telling me how to improve

Duuude this is really nice. I keep finding old really good songs on Newgrounds and finding out the artists quit:D glad you’re still here

LemKuuja responds:

I love the use of the epic synth chords and sidechain. Nice

TrickshotMusic responds:
