- 64k Windows 068A by Monad [web]
- Really promising first release! There's a crapload of work leading up to the first release in this category, and as others already pointed out, there's of course a lot of potential for improving in future productions.
Visually, there's some really nice ideas, and you actually managed to put everything you had to very good use.
In the sound department, there's also quite a lot of potential and equally many things that can be improved in the time to come. Yzi has a very good point in saying that you should work a bit on creating instruments. I don't know how many features your synth has as of this prod. Some of it sounds almost like 4k composition, where either generated patterns are gradually turned on or very simple patterns are introduced on top of one another. If the synth doesn't yet allow for very complex instruments, you'll have to focus more on composition to make the soundtrack a bit more interesting. Sometimes, less can be more, and never fear silence either. Adding too much will create a wall of sound, that - if your synth doesn't offer advanced mixing/compression - will result in a muddy mess where parts doesn't appear distinctive from one another.
Overall, it's fantastic to see yet another competitor in this category, and I'm sure that there'll be fantastic productions from your hands in the future, if you manage to improve with each production you release.
So no doubt about the thumb up - and it's not only for motivation but also for the amount of work I know you've undertaken to reach this point where you could release this. - rulezadded on the 2017-11-27 11:20:24

- Yes! Wohooo! Just watched the final and heard that you managed to add a 'Tadaaa'-moment to the egg scene! Wonderful. The visuals just grew from absolutely gorgeous to completely out of this world ridiculously insane. Great job on the final, guys!

- Oh wow! Simply just, WOW! Amazing visuals and I really love the soundscape. It's really amazing you managed to squeeze all this - fractal, fog, DoF, models etc. into one 4k. I guess the rather limited note data for the music helped make this possible. Instruments were all very nicely done, and I loved the pulsating feel - don't know if it was periodic note on's or if it's done entirely by the instrument. Either way, it really sounded fantastic. Only minor flaw, is perhaps that the music didn't change noticably at the eggs-scene. To me, that was definitely the main scene of this 4k, and it could have been emphasized a bit by making a subtle change or some kind of small "tadaaa-moment" without it getting too cheesy :)
Overall, easily top-3 4k of 2017 which has been an INSANE year for the genre. - rulezadded on the 2017-10-23 21:18:25

- 4k Windows Back to the Roots by Paraguay
- Really sweet prod. Lovely instrument s and very nice to see others taking Oidos for a spin. It's really a cool little synth and there's plenty potential yet to be explored with it.
Visually, there's not really much new, but I'm a fan of the color choice and both visuals and music provides a nice and easy-going kinda vibe, that is definitely pleasant. A really great production overall! - rulezadded on the 2017-10-01 12:59:47
- 4k Windows visit berlin by Peisik [web]
- Visually, I really like this. The style is raw, almost brutal. Hats off for trying to pull of the genre in the music in a 4k. Doesn't quite work with the rather limited set of effects/parameters available in any 4k synth, though. You do have the possibility to do some kind of side chain compression which could possibly have worked wonders here. The hihat and snare doesn't quite do it either, but getting anything than filtered noise for a snare, is rather difficult, so at least hats off for getting everything so close. There's no doubt about the visuals and the music fitting tightly together, and the sync is definitely great. I think the potential is there, and I'm sure that a couple more weeks to really fine tune everything and squeeze things even further to make room for extra little details would have worked wonders for this prod.
Needless to say - thumb HAS to go up for this one! - rulezadded on the 2017-10-01 12:48:07
- 4k Windows Waillee by Prismbeings
- Fantastic work! Again!
Visually, I only have three little things, that probably had to be so for size reson. The pattern in the liquid is a little bit too repeating/obvious. I found it a bit too long, and since you're in control of the music as well, that's not the reason. The b/w thing isn't really my thing. I know the reasons to do it, but it would be soooo much cooler with at least some kind of color.
Those three things aside (note that at least the two of them are totally subjective and only a matter of taste on my own part) this is truly marvelous!
The instrument design is really, really creat and I was really surprised at the way it develops. Beautiful composition and naturally instruments, composition and visuals works wonderfully as a whole. That's a masterclass at how big an advantage you get when the same person is in charge of everything!
Amazing job, Noby! - rulezadded on the 2017-10-01 11:00:01

- Wonderfull little prod. Really like what you managed to pull off in 4klang. The visuals are sweet and nice, and I've always been a sucker for happy stuff, so you definitely got me ... and my thumb :)

- 8k Windows Linea by LNX [web]
- Oh wow - this is really sweet! The thought of squeezing this just a tiny bit more and enter a 4k compo with it is what makes it so fantastic in my view. Nice ideas and very well executed. Cameras could use a bit of work, though, but it all takes up place. Music is nice and fresh, but probably a bit on the heavy side size-wise for a 4k. Extremely well done and definitely worth the thumb!

- A bit lengthy for the content. There's some cool effects but most of it looks as if it could probably fit in a 4k intro. Not all of them, and definitely not the image, of course, but apart from the cube with the girl, it doesn't really shine or have a wow-moment.
The music is rather generic and the characteristic sound of Clinkster explains the hard time you had with the snare for this track. For a 64k, I'd probably expect a bit more than what a 4k synth has to offer. - isokadded on the 2017-09-15 00:28:34
