[Artch - First Trial]

Звучит супер! Прямо с начало очень красиво и энергично. Мелодия постоянно эволюционирует в чего не будь новое и прекрасное. Динамика отличная, и миксинг очень профессионально звучит. В общем трек классный, так держать!!

Gl1tchMe responds:

Спасибо, мне очень приятно! :)

[Marianz - The Journey Begins]

This is so awesome! It sounds like one of those orchestra warmup things at first but with such a powerful kick and an epic melody. It makes me feel like I'm soaring haha. Amazing stuff, keep it up :D

ElMarianz responds:

Thanks dude, that was exactly the feel i wanted to give when listening to this track, so glad to see that it worked. Thanks man!!

[Sunset and Normandie]

Woah, trippy
I love it though! The melody constantly evolves and keeps moving. While sounding relaxing and familiar, it also feels like a journey or slightly floating through the sky. The sitar like guitar instrument gives this song such a nice timbre, and the bass being a similar instrument also really helps. It also is making me feel a little sleepy haha but I think that's because it just sounds so pretty and calm. Keep up the awesome work, I love this!

Pondererer responds:

Thanks so much, man! Appreciate this more than you know boss :)

[citadel]

I like when the beat kicks in! It already sounded kind of dark, grim, and mysterious, but the beat also added a cool action element to it. When it gets layered on with more percussion half way, it starts to sound more full as well. Would work very well as a loop probably for a spooky place in a game. Keep up the great work as always :D

wineplume responds:

yeah that's a really nice idea, thanks!

[better sleep or not]

Sounds really nice! It feels like it fits in some kind of either menu music, or animal crossing night music, but obviously it doesn't have to be either and just sounds cool. I like the calm atmosphere while repeating the same base motif and building off of it more and more. I like the instruments you chose too, together with the modern instruments they create an interesting nostalgic feeling, but the song also feels explorative and mysterious at the same time. Great work once again, keep it up!

wineplume responds:

cheers octo
yes, i used some "old home computer" instruments and added modern ones as well. the hats (and these really quiet reverberating claps) were sampled from some random drum breaks.

[Cherry Blossoms]

Very pretty! I like the progression, and how realistic the instruments sound. They are articulated very well and feel like they're actually played by a human, and also come in during just the right time. Keep up the great work!

Possibly responds:

Thanks so much. Yeah, i try to keep the human element as much as I can - by playing things badly :D

[[11.12.23] i die]

Супер, как обычно :)
Мне нравится атмосфера, очень расслабляющая и красивая. Инкорпорация звука удара в стекляшку тоже класс. Так держать!

G2961 responds:

Спасибо большое!

[Departure]

Very relaxed, atmospheric and pretty. I love it! It sounds uplifting but also very emotional, like not sad but just hopeful I think would be the right word. The build ups and drops are all awesome, and the energy/bass is popping. The mixing is also great! Awesome stuff, keep it up :D

Krony responds:

Thanks for the comment, I'm glad you like my song :3

[Build Me an Orchard]

This would definitely fit for some game/movie, I agree! Especially something like waking up or walking out into a beautiful green town just after the sun has started rising. The intro is beautiful and just leads into more instruments swelling over time, bringing in a lot of emotion (especially happiness and just generally being uplifting). All the performers did an amazing job with not just playing the instruments, but bringing so much articulation and soul into the play style. Just generally amazing song from start to finish, great job everyone!!
