[Lunar Kicks - Space Episode (Main Theme)]

This was epic I like it a lot B)

[Star tower (melodic dubstep)]

You better be getting an A++ for this because this sounds amazing! The way you placed the verses and main melodic parts was very well done, and the instruments were picked out perfectly. Sounds like a perfect mix of dubstep and beautiful melody. Also definitely very spacey. Keep up the awesome work!

[Donimingus]

Very relaxing and thought provoking, I really like it :)
The instruments are soft, and the bass is very nice. The piano solo is also a very beautiful and emotional part I like, and the way the song carries itself forward throughout is very nice as well. Feels like this could be in a sandbox game like Minecraft, Starbound or Terraria even. Awesome work, keep it coming!

[Assemble]

That drop is so sweet, the melody past that point is just next level! With synthwave I feel people often get too repetitive, but this is definitely not one of those cases because I wasn't bored for a single second! The synths are amazing once again and the bass is very hard and powerful. Fantastic work, please keep it up!!

[Saturn]

Holy crap I love this so much, it's so groovy! Very, very beautiful melody first of all, but everything else is so amazing. The mixing, the synths, the effects like the reverb and droning hollow noises, it adds so much character and richness. Everything is so crisp and easy to hear. I love the progression too, and the mood of the song is amazing. I really hope you make more stuff like this, because it's one of the craziest songs I've heard all year! :D

[A Villager's Dream]

Very beautiful, it really feels like you're telling a story through your composition :)
The instrumentation choice was very good, and the way you used those instruments together was very well done. They all have their moment to shine and melt into each other seamlessly. The mood is constantly cycling throughout as well from curious, to exciting, to relaxing, and so on. I have so much more I can say, but in short it's just very beautiful and you've done an amazing job, keep up the amazing work :D

Thanks for the kind review!

[Endless Existence]

The sounds in this are so crisp, the mixing sounds perfect! I love the slow pickup and the unexpected drop, and everything past that sounds really good too. Would probably work perfect in a fighting game or some kind of intense loading menu lol. And a little extra thing but I love the water sound, it really adds to the atmosphere. Awesome work, keep it up!

AeriuIka responds:

Thnx man I appreciate all the compliments and I'm happy you enjoyed the track tht much. Never thought about it being in a fighting game b4 but I can definitely see the potential. I do also love using water in my tracks :)

[Hot Silver]

Very relaxing and spaced out, I love it! The melody changes slightly but in a great way to make it non-repetitive, and I love the mixing of this very much too. The drums really pop while letting the other instruments stand out too. Great work, keep it coming :D

[Eight Bit]

This sounded very spaced out, and very progressive. I love it! Somehow it's even relaxing and calming to listen to. It also feels like it has a lot of space with all the reverb and atmospheric sounds. Great job on this, keep it coming!

[Hydrophone [SILKENWOOD Release]]

This really made my headphones pop, I love it! The dynamics on this were great, the drops were amazing and the melody was intense and beautiful. It tugs on all kinds of emotional strings as it feels curious, mysterious, exciting, adventurey, and happy all at the same time. Beautiful work, I think you did an amazing job with all this! Keep it up :D
