[Birthday Girl]

Probably the best usage of time signature changes I've ever heard. It seems like it would be impossible to create something that changes this smoothly between 4/4, 3/4, and 15/4, but somehow, this song pulls it off.

[I, The Machine]

Cool! I like the contrast between the mechanical-sounding growls in the drops and the more emotional melodic parts. Really helps to tell the story.

Speaking of which, the description sounds kinda like something you'd read about in one of Ray Bradbury's short stories.

[Pop Out [Reinelex Release]]

I'm not sure I know enough music theory to figure out what's going on with those melodies. They sound cool, though. It kinda gives off a feeling of getting your bearings in an unfamiliar dimension where no dangers have presented themselves (I'd say the vocal samples support this interpretation), so maybe the Phrygian mode is involved somehow, but at the same time there's definite excitement? I don't know. Whatever it is, I think it sounds cool.

Also, the ending kinda reminds me of some of ELEPS' stuff, like "Black and White" and "Shards of Power", which have roughly the same style of ending.

[-The blue planet-]

This one has a very unique sound to it. I haven't really heard anything that sounds quite like this. The selection of instruments, the laid-back tempo, and the melody all work together nicely to convey the feeling of floating in space and looking down at Earth.

[Derpcat & Somanylynx - Collapse]

I was literally listening to Somanylynx's stuff on Spotify yesterday. Your styles work great together! I mean, one would expect them to, since they're so similar, but this sounds great!

[ALESDA! Ft. B!aku - Endless Dream]

Seems a little unbalanced. If it were me, I'd put an extra refrain in the first predrop to balance it out and establish the theme earlier on.

Otherwise, though, cool song

[-Cats!-]

Sounds like the cats are having some sort of parade. Not sure what exactly that would look like, but I imagine it would ultimately devolve into chaos, if it wasn't already pure chaos from the beginning.

[-Two months from now-]

Fun melodies! It certainly sounds like eager anticipation of the future.

[-Whatever!-]

Sounds great! The melody definitely has kind of a carefree, dismissive sound to it, if you think about it.

The one thing I'd probably change is that a lot of the second half sounds the same. I'd probably want to make it a little more varied, so that it feels like it's going somewhere.

[Jiving Jolly]

I like it. Very catchy melodies and fun, energetic rhythms. Definitely gets the joyous, festive atmosphere right as well.
