[Accepting Surrender]

Woah, that bass tone

[Snowflake]

!This will be a full review of the album!

I was so hyped for this ep when I first heard it's in the works, and it did not disappoint, it's amazing, but let me tell you why I think this is a masterpiece (I'm going to talk about every song, one by one) :

1st song: campfire story
When I first heard about the project I was kinda afraid it will be driven by the melody, and will have not much of a hip-hopy feel to it, but after listening to the song, I was happy to hear that it had both elements perfectly balanced, other than that, its nothing much, it does what it has to do (so starts of the EP) 9/10 could have been longer

2nd song: Enter the forest
To be completely honest, I did not really enjoy this song, for me the lyrics kinda ruin it. They feel a bit out of place, kinda if they don't belong there (and I found this problem I some later songs too). But, the instruments are still amazing. Nothing more to say 7/10 the lyrics ruin it for me

3rd song: waterfall
This song kicks ass, all the instruments are amazing (especially the bass, I really appreciate the bass in this song), and the drums are powerful in their own way, it's just perfect. It gives me a sort of nostalgia too, which is a plus point I guess. This track is my favourite from this EP, if not my favourite song from you. 10/10 this song is a masterpiece

4th and final song: snowflake
A perfect album closer. Recently I've been obsessed with rock and roll, and I found that not every album has a good album closer, so I was kinda worried that this song isn't going to be "the grand finale" I was looking for. I really like that it's not a 2 or 1 minute album closer, cuz with it's 7 minutes it took the time to slowly end of the EP. But, this doesn't mean that it's perfect, and again, I don't really enjoy the vocals (or more so monologue) going on, it feels a bit out of place. To end this songs review with something positive, I want to mention I like how it took a turn from other songs from the album, and that it's not really lofi. 9.5/10 almost perfect.

So, all tho I don't like all the songs, I still think it's a awesome EP, and a amazing opening for the "catalogue of Pastayay albums". Keep up the good work, can't wait to see what else you will make in the future :)

Yoooo thanks for the rewiew and feedback. I am glad you found the songs to be unique and enjoyable. I'll be sure for next projects to work with the vocals more since adding lyrics and stuff is quite new to me.

[It's Just a Burning Memory (Remake - Less Angry)]

YOU MADE IT FEEL LIKE A SONG STRAIGHT OUT OF MINECRAFT AND I LOVE IT AHHHHHH

[Spottier & PastaYaY - Now You're Leaving]

And another banger by 2 of my favourite EDM artists, amazing!

DJPastaYaY responds:

I appreciate that Manocs

[The Great Riot]

Words can explain how much I love the drop, but numbers can 10/10 (I ofc like the other parts too but the drop is the most important part imo), you just got a new follower

QAWAVE responds:

Oh, thank you so much! Thats an old track, so now i see some problems of it. Actually, when i will run out of ideas, i can remake this! And correct some bad things.

[NK - Troopa - Remake FULL VERSION]

Sounds really interesting (in a good way)

[Riser]

Gives me old nk vibes, nice song!

[NK - Classical VIP - Remake]

Amazing remake, I really like it

QAWAVE responds:

Thanks☺️

[Like A Stone]

Ngl, you kinda ruined it for me, I just don't like this "chiptune" style, I think it doesn't fit the song as much, but idk, there might be some people how like it, I personally dont
