[Sweet Sandy Coast]

Wowowowowowowowowow this sounds so happy!! Instantly made my happy mood happier :D

I absolutely love what you went for here, it sounds so relaxing and enjoyable. The instruments you chose work very well together to create this atmosphere, but the actual melody is the main culprit here. It's so beautiful and unique, it just feels like a big mood lifter. I really wish it was longer because I loved what you have so much! It also reminds me of Kirby 64 music for some reason a little bit. But yeah amazing work, keep it coming!!

[All The Same]

The intro is calm and relaxing, but the beat that kicks in after that is very unusual and cool! The percussion sounds weird in a good way and establishes a very unique flow. The whole song also feels like it's constantly pushing forward and never sitting at the same spot. The mixing is also amazing, I love hearing all the clean and crisp noises while all the other instruments still get a chance to shine. In general I think this is a very awesome one of a kind song and I love it! Keep up the amazing work :D

[Jezzel - Through The Clouds]

Sounds happy and spacey, I like it! It feels like a song that has an early night time mood, while also being relaxing and hopeful. I like the different EDM instruments you used, especially the pluck that starts in the beginning and cuts back in around the middle. Percussion was also very well timed and done. Great work, keep it up!

[Bloodseeker]

Sounds so awesome! From the intro all the way through this is one huge intense adventure to listen through. It's very non repetitive and just keeps evolving in the best ways. It's loud and powerful all the while having great mixing. My favorite part kicks in around 1:24 just because it's so sweet while still going so hard. I love it to pieces, keep up the amazing work!!

[Pinewood Spirits]

Sad that the game didn't get finished, this song sounds so beautiful I would've loved to hear it somewhere! It's beautifully orchestrated and everything comes together in an amazing way. It's very heart tugging and full of this amazing relaxed and hopeful happy mood. It just feels like someone really put their whole heart and soul into this. Amazing work, keep it coming!!!

[Infinite Horizons]

Definitely very dreamy, good job with this! I love how beautiful the instruments are, from the acoustic ones to the synths. The pads are awesome and fit perfectly. And when the bass kicks in it kind of just puts me in a deeper trance because it's so relaxing. The mixing is surreal, and the way all the instruments work together is phenomenal. I absolutely love the atmosphere and mood you made here! Keep up the amazing work :D

[Effervescent]

This is definitely very groovy and it even sounds airy too! I really like how you decided to do the progression in this song, and the different parts where there's calm and then intensity. It kind of feels like standing on top of a very tall mountain, or climbing it. The mixing is also fantastic. Great work, keep it up!!

EVLanche responds:

Thank you so much! It means a lot to me ^ ^ Glad you enjoyed it!

[Strange discoveries]

Sounds like something that fits a lost jungle, or a forest at night. I really like it! The slow introduction of different instruments in the beginning was really nice, and the overall atmosphere just sounds very peaceful, yet happy and curious at the same time. I love the mixing too, everything sounds so clean and pretty. Amazing work here, keep it coming!

WildTheory responds:

That inspires me greatly, thank you very much!

[Shapeshifter]

Never heard slower tempo dubstep like this before, but I think you executed it perfectly! It sounds very spaced out in general, like you're either just floating through space or in a big empty place, and the melodic parts emphasize that the best. The dubsteppy/hard parts really add power and general tremor to the mood however and that gives it a unique feeling, especially at such slow speed. A pretty brave direction you went onto here, but I think it paid off! Great work, keep it up!!

DJLimeMusic responds:

Thank youuuuuuu!!!! ^^

[PRGX - Wake Up]

Beautiful! I am not a common listener of dubstep but to me this was the perfect combination between hard bass and grit, and melody. It sounds very interesting in many different ways through all of its parts. The lead that kicks in at 2 min is also so funky I love it a bunch! Great job, keep up the amazing work :)
