Banger song, banger art, banger music

[Sprite (Glaremix)]

This remix sounds so uplifting in a way! Making it into an orchestral track was an interesting choice, and it fits your style well.
I’m rating everything 5 for now, until I do the judge reviews! ;)

Judge review:

Creativity: 34/40
The goal of “de-electronic-ifying” the track was definitely an interesting idea! The intro was a bit messy, but the rest of the song is very well executed. ESPECIALLY the drops. That’s where I really heard your style come out, and if you’ve read any of the other judge reviews you’ll know that I LOVE IT when a creator blends their style with the track. Drops are just very soothing, well done here! Structure is similar, but not too much. It all works for me!

Technical: 22/25
The mixing is great at the drops and buildups. I would have loved to hear more of the drums, however, but this is definitely one of e cleaner entries in this contest during the drops. The intro was a bit messy, as I said before. You used it a lot throughout the song as well, which would have been okay but it just doesn’t sound quite right. And it slightly overpowers the mix. But this is song is very beautiful!

Atmosphere: 10/10
The drops are so amazing. I can not say this enough. I thank you for making Extra Sprite sound this good. Your choice of using real instruments was a great one. The piano is also great. Your skills show through here.

Instrumentation: 9/10
Basically everything I could say here is already said above. The choices were superb, but the according/clarinet/violin was a bit too loud. The instrumentation is actually one of the main things that makes this track so good.

Overall: 13/15
I originally didn’t like this track, but then I put on my headphones and understood how good it truly is! This is a truly enthralling track that I would love to read a book or do homework or even just fall asleep to!

Total: 88/100

Congrats on 2nd place! This is a very neat entry, I really love what you’ve done with the song. Make sure to listen to everyone else’s tracks, they did great! Good luck on all of your future projects, and thanks for participating!

Liftek responds:

Thank you very much, this is seriously a prodigious compliment for me!
Also thanks for your opinions regarding these compositional aspects :)

This is just too good! The growls are awesome in the drops, but the emotional parts are beautiful! This is just one of your best, and every second of work you put into this project is shown by the quality of this song.
Also, you’re prowess with Serum is legendary, I can’t believe you did all of this with that one plug-in. I’ll definitely have to look into it when I snag FL.

UPD: Yeah I definitely do that, just listen to my old tracks where I had a different style like “how did I do that?”
Jesus gave us salvation from our sins. Serum gave us FREAKING AWESOME MUSIC. But, correct me if I’m wrong but, according to my calculations, didn’t the inventing of pizza happen before the creation of Serum? Checkmate, your move XD

SpeedoRH responds:

Haha, thank you so much! I have personally been spending this whole week just listening to my own track in disbelief. I personally believe this is my best project, or at least one of my best too, and to be honest I am so thankful to have been able to finish it with this result.

For clarification, all instruments and some FX were made with Serum. The drums and most of the FX going on in the background are NOT made with Serum. Regardless, I am glad you regard me as a skilled sound designer, although I did use some presets in the making of this here and there.

Serum is probably the best thing to happen to humanity since Jesus Christ. Prove me wrong ;)
