[Corpse Calling]

i do like the atmosphere it gives off. would be interesting to see you revisit this type of music sometime soon. i might actually make something like this soon

SoulSecure responds:

I don't really make music like that anymore because it's not the type of music I listen to anymore. I use elements of sampling random sounds and things I learned to do back then in the music I have made since.

[Pizza Time!!]

this is cool but when i try to use it in gd it wont let me it gives this error "SoNg is nOT aLlOweD for uSe"

Diamondmanpixel76 responds:

I assume that's because this song hasn't been added to the whitelist yet

[Touhou - Bad Apple (RedWire Remix)]

mmm nice track! feels a lot more up-tempo and exciting than the original version

(honestly i would use this in a geometry dash level but i always lose motivation to create after making like 15 seconds of gameplay)

VioletWire responds:

Thanks!

[Silent Rizz (Jumper Remix)]

it gives me a vaporwave type vibe, or actually, no, its more like dance, no idk lol
what genre is this supposed to be bro?
also is it just me or is this kind of off beat?

VioletWire responds:

Lmao i dont know to be honest. this is just some joke remix i through together. it was never actually meant to sound good at all, so yknow lmao. my actually current work is a lot better than this garbage lmao

[Chin Up]

im not too much of a religious person myself but this track is kinda smooth :)
that beginning is nice sounds like phone hold music (like when ur waiting for a hour to talk with customer service)
and then it turns into a nice lofi type beat after a minute or so

SoulSecure responds:

I don't really know anything about making this "lofi" hip hop that's popular now, but I've noticed some of it is a lot like the trip-hop/chill/lounge stuff I've been making for years. Um 'phone hold music' you refer to is called bossa nova and I wish they played it when I get put on hold, I always get soft rock or classic rock when I'm put on hold.

[1 Thessalonians 4:17]

cool i guess
it gives me major zelda temple vibes, especially at 0:14. but u should work on ur mixing a little bit. the bongos(????) at 0:57 are way louder than everything else going on. also the synth melody could be a lot more developed, since you just use the same tune through most of the track. and... uh, not to be rude but how is this dnb? when i think of dnb i think of intense fast paced techno. u shoulda put it under ambient

SoulSecure responds:

The song isn't what you would call straight DnB, it's main influence is DnB. Hey though go check out ambient jungle or intelligent DnB, it's like really chill music with breaks all over it. Remember DnB doesn't have to be super complicated music. Thanks for the review, I'm a big Zelda fan, this song reminds me of the City in the Sky from TP a little bit.
