And THIS song?????
That song isn't legit retrowave on any level, that's like pure synthwave but it's on this retrowave channel sooo.
I mean it's GOOD good shit. Like I don't care if they mix shit in if it's GOOD.
ESPECIALLY if there are no vocals.
It's awesome...
That said, they (Vosto) have made this song the EVER SO SLIGHTEST too lengthy.
You guys know I am a staunch critic, working since 2012 to critique this genre of music...
I know what I'm talking about when it comes to vocal critiques.
But I also know what I'm talking about when it comes to actual song production.
I won't name any names, but I have done a fair bit work with re-edits and have started more than one trend in the retrowave/synth genre...
As the creator of certain trends, I am telling you, it's a touch too slow. Only a touch... ;)
And some of the sparkly lil sounds circa 4:00 are lovely indeed but they sound like they're just tossed in at original pitch/speed so it's just like...
Not 100%.
