on I am Rising High feat Manuela Boekels by AnthonyAttard
Sometimes I think songs like these should be radio-friendly. It's hard for me to understand their meaning. However, if I were to evaluate a specific track, namely this one, I would say that it Good quality of execution.

Hello Alex,
I am really glad you enjoyed the quality of execution. I completely understand the challenge of following along in a possibly foreign language; I often have the same difficulty. That's why having the lyrics written down is so important. Unfortunately, there was a serious issue with Manuela and the lyrics are no longer available. I am not sure I can recreate them accurately since there's always the risk of getting some parts wrong. However, I am confident there was no bad language or anything disrespectful to the listeners. Thanks again for taking the time to listen and share your thoughts on the track.
Best regards, Anthony

Well done. Strive to do better. Always strive to do better. Even if it's already the maximum.

on Dark Melo prod KmD Beat by kossabeats225
Something dark. I can't imagine how difficult it was to write. I'd get tired of listening to that overdriven bass. But overall, the track is interesting.

on Nunya by E32Rich
The concept is great, but the execution is poor. Something needs to be done about the bass line. It's too loud for this format. My suggestion is to make it quieter and reduce the midrange frequencies

on Phantom - Ft Charvox by Flat2Forge
It's very difficult. There's so much airtime. There's a real lack of perception, but a genre is a genre.
Flat2Forge
Flat2Forge replied 16th Jun 2026 - 3 months ago
Hey Alex! Thanks for the honest feedback, man. I completely get where you're coming from, especially with your classic rock background.

That 'airtime' and the space in the track are actually a huge part of the nu-metal. Unlike classic hard rock where the energy is a continuous wall of sound, this genre relies heavily on those big gaps and sudden drops to create contrast when the heavy guitars finally kick in. It definitely requires a different kind of perception to digest!

I really appreciate you taking the time to listen to something so far off your beaten path and sharing your thoughts. Respect, man!

on Phantom - Ft Charvox by Malkontent42
Bro, you asked for advice yourself.

Look, theres this thing called harmony. Without it, nothing really lands. No matter how dope the vocals or how sweet the melody, your track still wont truly hit people in the feels.

Im just keeping it real, no negativity. I really hope you hear me out. I get it when youre making your own music, every riff or hook you write might sound like straight fire to you. But the truth is, its not there yet.

A lot of people here are super nice and dont want to hurt anyones feelings, so instead of giving real constructive feedback, they just gas you up with praise.

Dont get me wrong Ill give you props too. Youre doing your thing. Youre putting in the work. Thats seriously cool. But if you wanna make truly great music, you first need to study the greats or learn from someone whos been around the block.

Youve got it in you to write a killer track. And honestly, this one? For someone whos still learning? Its actually pretty solid."

Let me know if you'd like a version that sounds more like a voice note from a producer friend.

Hey, first off, thank you so much. That's why I ask for feedback, so I know where I can improve! If there's something I need to work on, then I want to know. I really appreciate you taking the time to give me your feedback, especially when it's something that I need to work on.

My question, though, is exactly what you mean by harmony in this case. Is there something that sounds like it clashes or is discordant? I try hard to make sure that all loops I use are in the same key and compliment each other tonally. I don't read music (never could get it to stick in my head), but i do have a very basic understanding of music theory, including chord progressions, different types of chords, and stuff like that, although I am obviously still learning.

Is there something specific that I'm missing? Or do you have any advice on how to improve?

Again, I really appreciate you taking the time to give me feedback, and I totally understand if you don't want to go that in depth on things, just thought I would ask. Thanks again!

on System Failure by tecraver
I don't understand why it's called "System Crash," but the track rocks. The melody is well-written. Although I would have slowed it down a bit.

on Where do we go now - feat Che Paxin by fanisatt
If you wrote this track yourself, then you're seriously awesome. That vocal sounds incredible such a classic 80s vibe. Im a huge fan of that era's music, and this just hits the spot. Mad respect

Hello Alex !! I am glad you like it so much ! It is just a digital creation ! The voice of Che as the basic melody line , me (I design - build the music and play keys - not a real time skilled player), 2 midi keyboards , a variety of midi tools - libraries & patterns and an old Cubase DAW . Thank you very much for your so encouraging comment ! Cheerssssssssss !!

on Bleeding eyes by Cyberflares
That track has a very specific, almost hypnotic melody seems like its supposed to lull you into some kind of trance. Then that overdriven kick drum snaps you right out of it, and the whole arrangement kinda glues those two headspaces together. Theres no real breathing room in the track. You could throw in an interlude, but at three minutes long, theres not much space to squeeze one in without it feeling forced. Another move would be to chop the track into a few similar-but-separate sections with actual breaks in between.

For someone like me who comes from classic hard rock, this feels pretty off the beaten path. Not what Im used to.

Respect,
Alex Borvin

on A DEAD MOTH - feat Kasane Teto and Sukone Tei by ARTD4RV
The lyrics add variety. I think it's a bit lacking in melody. Still, it sounds pretty good. I suppose the style itself suggests this format, but I'd still like to add something. Maybe some other instrument with a drawn-out sound, or short synths

You're great. Sincerely, Alex Borvin

on LETS GO THERE by kingmt77
It's hard for me to give a proper description. I don't understand the genre. But I see many people like it. I love jazz. I just don't understand it.

I guess I'm stuck on the fact that the drums are too loud. I'd probably like some hi-hats and light percussion. Overall, it's a good melody.

Greetings Alex. The stop and time you've taken out is valued and treasured. Jazz is an genre that also has sub-genres. Entry level includes jazz pop or smooth jazz. At the other end of the spectrum you find avant-garde which pushes the limits. I'm somewhere in between with this track, with an jazz blended with a heavy funk emphasis (the bass). Also at the 1:33 mark my overall time signature shifted slightly for a few bars up to the change. With that move the whole feel changed. My wife always tells me she has to study the elements I bake into my tracks LOL! So I totally get what your saying.

Sorry but not sorry about the drum mix! To lighten any of the percussive elements would destroy what I'm conveying here. I'm glad the melody served you well. Thanks again for your observations. Stay safe.

on Easy Celebration by Critical90s
I don't know why, but the melody's motif is a bit reminiscent of the music from the game Space Rangers. If the beat were a little more subtle and maybe a little slower, I think it would definitely fit in that game. Overall, it's very good music.

on LET GO by k9beatsz
The voice is beautiful. Good sense of rhythm. But for me, the volume gap between the intro and the start of the beat is a bit strong. If I hadn't looked at the waveform, I would have been scared by such a sharp change. But overall, it's a good track. I liked it.

on For Vangelis by AnthonyAttard
I think there are a lot of sounds on top of other sounds here. But the mood of the track is really pleasing. I think it could even be used in a game.
AnthonyAttard
AnthonyAttard replied 5th Jun 2026 - 4 months ago
Hello Alex,
During the mixing process, I usually try to give each instrument its own space in the stereo field so that the mix doesn't feel too crowded. What you noticed may be due to the percussion part, which is indeed very rich in sounds.
I will certainly keep your opinion in mind for future productions. It is something I completely understand.
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen to and comment on my music.
Best regards, Anthony

on blank - night by blank56709
Damn. This is such a hard-hitting blast that I'm shaking my head so hard I almost rip it off. The sounds are really well-placed. What I would change is the beat. I think it should be harder.

on Ghost Hunter - Free License by Flat2Forge
It seems like something Egyptian, but in a neuropunk style.
Flat2Forge
Flat2Forge replied 7th Jun 2026 - 3 months ago
Man, 'Egyptian neuropunk' is one of the coolest descriptions Ive ever heard! I absolutely love that sci-fi, ancient-meets-futuristic imagery. It makes total sense with the dark scale of the guitars mixed with the heavy bass and digital voices.

You just gave a whole new lore to the track, brother. Thank you so much for the dope feedback and for tapping into the vibe!
