Description
An ambient track, inspired mostly by the abstract soundscapes of Yume Nikki fangames; Most synth sounds were made using Dexed (a dx7 recreation by Digital Suburban), then passed through Aberrant DSP´s Lofi Oddity for reverb and tape distortion effects.

Theme

Inside my world
Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
A sense of hypnagogia, generally.

"Space... around... me... eternal... and... endlessly" - Literally me, while listening to this track.

That wobbling synth is deeply spooky and atmospheric, really like it. The track's got a very slight bit of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond" about it I think. You've nailed the hypnagogia aesthetic absolutely! Really great, well done!

Really cool ideas and a haunting synth layer that really adds the tension that was much appreciated. Great work!

Loved this soundscape, especially the slightly atonal harmonies - made it feel interesting and different. Well done!

Love the feeling of that "recessed" lead synth that just melts into everything else. Haunting, almost chilling. Well done!

A cool song with a cool soundscape! My critique would be that the lead that came in at around 0:48 can pop a bit more. Separating it from the reverb could work, making the dry sound more pronounced.

Also, I've wanted to get into Dexed myself but the UI is so scary lol.

Yeah Dexed is pretty terrifying in that aspect lol. Thanks for listening!

Incredibly interesting harmonically and very atmospheric. Love the synth choices. I do think it got a little repetitive after a while, I think maybe a pickup of energy somewhere in the track would’ve helped keep it going strong. Great work!

I really liked the feel of this track. The synths were really fitting, and I felt like I could just sit in this song for hours. I wish you had come up with a game pitch to go along with it, but the song is super enjoyable on its own!
