I can clearly see the Professor Layton inspiration. I like the instrumentation. The choir in Curial was a good addition. Good job!
A good start - I liked the musical ideas in here. Me-as-future-listener-in-game appreciates that each element takes a while to get introduced, especially in tracks 1 and 3. Me-as-current-listener-in-jam would probably suggest taking some of the musical ideas (like the addition of the choir in tracks 1 and 3) and bringing them in a little more quickly to get them into the listener's ears faster, and maybe from there either move onto the next track (show variety) or take the existing soundfloor and either introduce some changes to the chord progression, maybe a key change, or some dynamic variety, give us highs-and-lows. The ideas are strong enough that you have a lot of flexibility in how you choose to execute them, so you can really build them up from here.
There's a lot to like here. The sounds are charming and the tracks are evocative. Jester was so much fun and well composed. The instrument choices in it are perfect and I can see it so clearly in a game. The other two tracks immediately intrigued me, though I think they would benefit from more variation, either in the instruments or the chords. Thanks for making and sharing.
"Jester" was:
Indeed
Great arrangement and composition! I particularity enjoyed your choice of instruments in "The Clockwork Kingdom" and the 3/4 time signature which works super well with the universe your were going for! Very nice entry overall!
Nice job. The music box juxtaposed with the ominous choir pads in Curial was the highlight for me :)
I can totally hear the Layton vibes in the first and last track. It gives a constant of mystery, but in a joyful way. The Jester has Bad Piggies vibes, I like it :D
i love the playful nature of this whole soundtrack! even the serious songs have an air of whimsy about them, and it ties together into one pretty, cohesive piece. very well done :)))
I adored your music tracks! They each had distinct melodies and vibes, giving the listener a pleasing variety while conjuring just the right mood for your game world. Your choice of sounds (and their quality) are top-notch! (Admittedly, I am a huge fan of music box tunes.) Nicely done.
Enjoyed the whimsical feel of this ost.
Very cool, the music box sounds very well with the ticking sounds. Every track has nicely defined theme, and is well executed. The melodies are also well made and don't get boring.
The link to the soundcloud doesn't work tho, you might want to recheck it.
I'm glad you liked it!
Thanks for mentioning the soundcloud problem, I would've never noticed that if you hadn't brought it up. It should be fixed now.
