[The Call of The Void]

This really represents the whole void theme, I think you nailed it! The progression building up and leading into a "softer" type drop with a new part to the melody is perfect for what you were trying to depict, and the longer style of pacing definitely also helps. It's also very rewarding when more stuff finally kicks in around the 2:22 mark (especially that sax, man its cool!). The ending is also perfect after all the song has done. Awesome work, keep it coming!!

RedCocoa responds:

Thank you very much, glad the void theme thing seems to work as well as I hoped it would. More is coming :D

[race to the light]

Hyper trance is such a fun genre, but your song really stands out as extra fun and exciting! Everything is just so fast, it feels like flowers blooming all over space or something lol. The variation of the main melody lead is so nice, and the drums really help create a happy-intense energy too. Just awesome stuff in general, keep up the great work!

[June]

Какая красота :D
Это как то даже больше ностальгично чем прежний трек. При этом, ты как то сумел выразит жару и веселые лето в атмосфере твоего трека. Супер трек, жду следующего шедевра!!

[Moon]

Мне кажется что вышло очень хорошо :)
Мелодия почему то звучит очень ностальгично, и к прибавку она очень красивая. Так держать!

[rock my world]

It's really fun and energetic :D
I like how quick the energy kicks in, and the arp helps make it sound more zoomy and exciting. Sounds like something that would fit well in a late 2000s flash game. Keep up the great work as always!

early-mid 00's racing games vibes to me, thank you for the review!

[LittleTownTheme]

Very peaceful and serene, I almost fell asleep after I realized the song has already looped four times haha

I really like this though! It reminds me of old RPG's that would have this kind of music in peaceful areas; maybe its the strings, maybe it's the progression, but either way it somehow sounds very nostalgic. The melody was pretty and could fit the beginning of a new day, or the theme of a rainy day on a farm or something like that. Great work, keep it up!!

SnipedDucky responds:

thanks!

[Filo]

Really soft and pretty :D
Sounds like something that would play while you are sitting on a balcony at night having chocolate milk or something, at least that's what came to my mind lol. I like the progressive introduction of slightly more instruments throughout the song to keep it interesting too. Keep up the good work!

[AND THEN]

This song feels like something that would play on a breezy walk through a city park without a care in the world, I really like it! Sometimes songs give me a very specific feel for some reason and this is one of them. I like the combination of instruments you used; the main woodwind provides a nice constant familiar layer, while the glockenspiel sounding instrument gives a little bit of flair and magic. The brass gives this feeling of "coolness" kinda, the piano provides a nice foundation, and the percussion just gives it a nice little energetic kick. All together it just sounds like a really fun song and I think you did a great job, so keep it up :D

Thanks!

I read the description and I congratulate you on getting a melody out that you have wanted to for a very long time! I think the result is very unique and interesting :)

I don't think I have heard a song like this before, or at least for a while, where the first half is almost ambient like and very light energy, and the second half is ballistic. It is very unusual, but also really helps set the one of a kind feeling the song gives off. As for the atmosphere, it's definitely spring like, or personally to me it sounds a lot like the beginning of something new and beautiful. Kind of like having that initial bud of something new for it to bloom into something crazy and beautiful. The percussion work on the latter half was insane haha. Great work, keep it coming!
