Description
genres: lofi/epic/acoustic ... something like that sure

for the 2 tracks based on guitar, i composed them on my acoustic guitar then recorded on my phone and then put it in FL studio 20 (everything else was added in fl studio itself) (also thanks to chrisiguess for the vocals in "hypothermia")

for the "game" i was imagining some sort of adventure-ish rpg where you explore the ancients something of the winter and the soundtracks would go something like this:

13-12 (menu theme): as the menu theme (duh)
it's cold: as the first part of exploration (probably in some sort of shimmer/shiny ancient cave) and/or the first boss in the game
campfire camp: a moment to relax in a camping site after so much tension
temple of ice: exploration (the sequel)
hypothermia (game over): the song that plays when you die

there's still plenty of room and i certainly had plans to expand on the soundtrack and concept but oh well...

Message from the artist:
(cover art unrelated) also hi

Theme:

Story of Seasons

How does it fit the theme?
inspired on the season: winter

This is fantastic from start to finish! From the epic drums to the chilling high-passed synths/bells to the soothing guitar and vocals it all blends together really nicely. Incredible composition and mixing. Your guitar playing is really nice too - never would have guessed you recorded it on your phone lol. Hypothermia is probably my favorite for the lovely blend of vocals on top of the guitar. Then second is Temple of Ice because it's chilling and intense and I would love it to play on loop during my exploration of any ice dungeon from any game. Great job!

Re-listened to Hypothermia. I LOVE how the whistling is pushed far far away and almost sounds like wind blowing in the distance. Again great mixing!

Campfire camp and hypothermia are great! I haven't heard many tracks using live musicians playing, so great work. I also really like Temple of Ice: feels like an epic boss battle.

Campfire Camp caught me by suprise. Really nice and warm, the chord progressions almost sounds like an Ink Spots song. Nice to hear some organic sounds in this electronic winter hellscape of yours. Other than that it is a solid and varied soundtrack. "Hypothermia" is so beautiful, I wanted it to last more !

in all seriousness it sounds very good, i like how theres like a battle version of some of the songs, and generally theres just lots of variety for just 5 track
