This is very relaxed and definitely fits the theme well. I feel like it could benefit from an additional sound/instrument somewhere, but I feel the mix is solid. Well done!
Thank you very much!
Great instrument choice, harmonies, sparseness to fits the theme! Cute work ^^
Thank you!!
Song is very cute!
Thank you! ^^
Love the double bass line, and the cowbell adds up to the vibe as well!
Thank you very much! Cowbell power forever!
Wholesome track, perfectly in the spirit of Animal Crossing. Adding some funny instruments in the second part makes this track one of the best of this jam
Thank you so much for your kind words!
This is one of the most faithful to the assignment that i've rated so far. For about a minute I was like "This needs....." and then "oh wait yes now that's in there just the tiny bit it needs (the percussion arrived, then the tone that sounded sort of vocal for a tinge of variety, and probably 2 other things I can't classify but yeah they're all there).
Outstanding work.
Thanks a lot! So happy to hear you liked it. I was exactly there, thinking "what can I do to keep this from being too serious/boring, while not going too far?", and the "weird vocal cry + cowbell combo" came to the rescue.
Very nice track :) Feels simple and chill, really works well for the theme ! God Job !
Thank you! :D
Nice, gentle guitar melody. Surprising melody solution at 0:56 and was not expecting cowbells. Overall I liked the song.
Thanks a lot for your comment. I am happy to hear you liked it!
Nice minimalistic approach) Shaker quite monotonous and loud, but overall nice sounding track!
Thank you so much for the feedback and kind words! Yes, I had the brilliant idea of making a "last minute" redoing of the mix to give the shaker more presence, when it was my first time creating a shaker with sampled sounds. Every time I hear it, it sounds more robotic to me...
whooo that little dissonant chord was so unexpected and nice. I think you did a great job for a background music, it sounds super nice and in place!
Yay, glad you liked that! Thanks a lot for the encouragement!
The minimalism in the arrangement captures the atmosphere of an Animal Crossing Game quite well! The percussion gave it that whimsy :)
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it!
