Description
They are more ambient/classical themes, played only by a piano. Each track I made represents a strong emotion that we all have as human beings, when we are inside our "own worlds." I did everything in FL Studio and played everything with my digital piano. I imagined something very similar to "Spirited Away."
Message from the artist
I really enjoyed the themes! I think it allowed for a lot of creativity! I want to participate again in the future!
Theme
How does it fit the theme?
I imagined something very much like "Spirited Away," but simpler. That's why I made an effort to create an entire soundtrack using only a piano. Each piece addresses a specific emotion for me, things you feel when you are "inside your own world."

SOLO PIANO, cool approach and lovely pieces♥
I can imagine this soundtrack in a game with bright colors and tiny little characters. Well done!!
Good arrangement! Soulful soundtrack)
Sweet piano album, quality is good. Each track are for me almost the same, there was not an element that would really distinguish one from the other, yes the playing is different but I think to make piano album you really need something a motif and a really amazing playing to diversify the tracks. So maybe adding an different instruments or something to create a new dynamics would change the pace a little bit. Good job !
Nice use of arpeggios and utilization of the piano to tell your story! :D
Beautiful music! You are a great player. I admire the variety of emotional colors you transmit with the piano only. Great pieces!
Thanks a lot!
Echoes of Yesterday: Nice piano work.
Moments of Clarity: I like the darker tone. Reminds me of Hollow Knight.
Journey Within: Love how all the piano voices interweave.
Love the use of piano throughout. Great work!
Thanks!
Nice focus on the piano, Maybe I would have liked a little bit more surprises in the tracks but good submission nonetheless!
Yeah, I would like to add some strings, but I don't have the balls yet. Thanks for the review!
I'm sure that it would be great if you tried!
You're definitely an amazing piano player. A lot of subtleness and power at the same time on the writing. I hope to reach that level at some point, great work!
Hey, thanks a lot!
This is straight beauty here! I hope this doesn't upset you, but I feel like these are really awesome "event" tracks that you would hear in cut scenes. Ofc, depending on the type of game I could hear these being bgm for an actual stage, too. Either way, nice job on creating a fitting atmosphere.
Hey, no problems! Thanks a lot!
Beautiful solo piano! I love how you built up the dynamics in the first track! You’re a fantastic player, well done!
Thanks!
Such a nice score! I love your piano writing, especially 'Journey Within.' Even if you went simpler, it manages to be convey so so much emotion. I like how playful 'Echos of Yesterday' is, and how it seems you represent the echo with a kind of call and response pattern, it flows so well!
Thanks man! It's a pleasure to have such a talented composer listening to my tracks!
I enjoyed the simplicity of the piano!
Thanks!
Piano-centric pieces will always reign supreme for me. Echoes of Yesterday kicking things off is great - it has an almost pensive tone to it, offset by the faster section mid-way through. Great articulation in the playing here; ebbing more on the side of softer and more gentle while coming to the front when needed.
Moments of Clarity is befitting of the title as this piece doesn't feel quite as pensive as the last, but instead has a more sombre and progressive feel to it. A little more definitive as a whole. Again, kudos on the articulation here. Great choice of chords as it moves on and the gradual reduction in the lower register as the track comes to a close is a nice touch.
Journey Within is a solid one to finish on, and the mood of this track is a little hard to nail down. Not quite as pensive as Echoes, but perhaps a little less definitive than Moments of Clarity. It has a heaviness to it, more of a dawning realization and early stages of acceptance. I think of the bunch, Echoes is my favorite, but as a whole this is really solid!
You mentioned in another comment that you would've liked to add some strings and I think that would have been interesting - I could see it elevating the arrangements a little higher, but they are fantastic as is. Great work with these. :)
You probably gave the best comment I've ever received on a song to date! I'm glad you liked it.
Happy to hear that, thank you for the wonderful listening experience! Excited to see what you'll come up with in the future. But, before that, I hope you do well in the jam!
Very nice piano for all the tracks.
I enjoy your piano playing, very calming. I think it fits the theme well too!
Favorite track: Journey Within
Hey, thanks! I was wondering to add some strings too, but it would get too artificial, so i just used my piano! Hope you liked it!
