The hardcore kick sounds surprisingly pleasing when combined with other elements. The chiptune melodies were sweet.
The alarm and vocal samples are sometimes buried, though

The drop's call n' response really bangs, great sampling and sound design.
The sine arp really sells the space-sounding music
The drums could be louder and punchier
For the first drop, it is repetition, but done right. However, the same can't be said for the second drop, as it is almost a 1:1 copy

thank you so much JinZ!

There are some riffs that I kinda dig, pretty catchy. 02:23-02:44 has much potential, I recommend more transitions. The drums are kinda nice, I like the drum fills
Other than what has been said about the mix, I'd like to point out that the track can be tough to work with when the bass is too loud

The composition and scoring are great overall, it's very dreamy, the background synth (0:15) makes the track space-y
Pretty good volume balance from each person. However, when combined, there should be more consideration.
The way I can see it being improved is through contrast
The piano is low-mid-freq heavy, so having a high-freq heavy background beat would make a better production. Another easy way to enhance it is to lower the volume of the left-hand piano.

Thanks Andy!

This is a very well-written score, with key changes, call n' response, leitmotif, etc
Every instrument works and harmonises well with the others
A few key volume imbalances are heard in the kicks, the toms, and Lap 3's guitar

I have to give you right for that yea. For some reason some notes of the guitar became soft, especially the ones I added later. It's weird.
Could you elaborate the low space/race score on discord?

Everything about the vocal has been said
Aside from that, the instrumentals are nice, I like the bridge (it has potential) and the hard stomping kick
The drops have enjoyable background melodies, and in the second drop, the half-time hits hard
One can argue that the vocal melody is emotional, but uhm... it sounds like a chipmunk sang it, so it lost the emotion, RIP

"To read in chipmunk voice" Thanks for the detailed review!

Fair, Neptunian Language has been often mocked for it's odd pitch, lmao

here are some tips for a better sound design: have a separate mono subbass, the growls don't need the sub freqs. The growls, too, need to be cleaned more aka have some mid-bass freqs reduced. I can kinda dig the basses as they remind me of classic Xtrullor.
i like how you two utilized sound effects, which is fitting in the context of space

I had a heart attack at the intro
I fell asleep listening to the track, mostly because of the constant repetition, with a too-simple composition
On the bright side, each bar works well, nice melody

For Immy: you've improved a lot, some parts are groovy, interesting synth presets, I suggest lowering the volume of some drum fills
For Zuwer: nice score overall. Creative melodies played by fitting instruments, fast melody with a fast bell, and slow melody with a slow synth. Cool drums as well.
Just in case this goes unsaid: This is not a collab

ZuwerWS responds:

thanks for the honest review

very nice and chill score, love the bells
Some more sidechaining could make parts like 01:10 sound less clicky
The bass sounds inconsistent, which may stem from phasing or a sound design issue
The track needs a better volume balance between the main and sub elements, most notably during the intermezzo
