[Hi Y3ti - Game Over]

Very nice track. I like the complexities of the sounds, and the Smash Bros characters are a nice touch. I don't think any of the characters stick out, but if you're still concerned about it you could try adding a tiny bit of reverb or a stereo widener/enhancer. That might help a little.

HiY3ti responds:

I didn't want to add reverb, even a little, because I found that it sounds the best when it's dry, and I don't want any character sound to interfere with the rest of the track, which is why I trimmed it that way.

But thanks! :3

[-Floorfilla - Anthem #4 : _-C0RTAX Remix-_]

Nice loop, it's so full of energy. I don't have any critiques for this, unfortunately. Nice work.

[Sad Story]

This track is indeed a sad story. It definitely projects a feeling of despair. I agree with pretty much everything FantasyWings said so I won't bother to echo him. Nice work.

jjoon responds:

Thank you!! xD

[Synthesize]

Nice track, bud. The structure is nice, and pleasing to listen to. Keep up the good work.

Phantasma000 responds:

Thanks!

[Cosmic & Celestial]

Pretty fast paced track you got there. Nothing wrong with that though. I like the piano intro and the happy atmosphere.

Jakki responds:

thanks ^^

[Fear Factory (SlashBolt Remaster)]

I always enjoy a well made Donkey Kong Country track. Everything is layered nicely, mastering sounds good, nothing else to report. Nice work.

[Transcend {Dj-Abbic}]

My my, you certainly have come a long way since 2009. It's nice to see fellow artists on here improve so much over time.

As for your track, the structure and everything is pretty solid. Nice ups and downs, builds up to a satisfying drop, and the melody hooks pretty well (it's stuck in my head now, thanks :P).

The only thing I can think of (and this is likely because I'm wearing headphones) is that it could use a tiny bit more bass. Maybe some distortion, but that's more of a personal preference. I wouldn't change it though, it's really good as is. I can definitely hear the hours of work you put in.

Awesome track, I look forward to hearing more from you.

DjAbbic responds:

Haha thanks, and I'm glad the melody was nice enough to get stuck in your head (sorry :p). I experienced the same thing with the bass on my headphones, but when I boosted it a bit, it started drowning other things out when I listened to it on speakers (not sure if that's supposed to be normal), so I decided against it in the end.

Thanks a lot for the review, glad my nostalgia trip allowed you to find this :p
