I love this drum connection in the first track!
In the second one, I feel the madness of the circuits...
the third track... Sad :_)
As others have said, some really cool ideas in there which I'd love to hear developed a bit more. Good stuff all round - well done!
is that a buchla synth i hear? really interesting timbres here, the piano also had some interesting and yummy-sounding harmonies that I really enjoyed, thank you for sharing!
i don’t know what a buchla synth is. I just experimented with vital until i found a synth sound that sounded nice for a metroid track. I then used that same preset in my tracks. The piano is from pianobook, don’t exactly remember the name but yes, I mostly choose vsts by their sound character, because i have good confidence in my music theory (i never learned it, just watch a few analysis videos) and harmony skills.
super neat ideas throughout that I think could be developed even more! Good job!
Thank you
I dig this, it has some really neat ideas in it. Subverts expectations in a lot of ways; keeps a forward motion but tends to steer a little off-course to keep you guessing what elements will be coming up next.
I dig the piano work and drums in Blue Light - the former is atmospheric and gives me some menu vibes for some hidden gems of the early 00s. Could also see it functioning as in-game music but a menu was the first thing that came to mind for me.
The elements in Bewildered are befitting of the name, for sure. I think this is the most unique track of the three. The haphazard beeping synth reminds me of either a dysfunctional personal radio or being near a bunch of machines that are either on the fritz or beyond repairing. It's disconcerting but not ominous. The hihat rhythm and various pieces of piano notes chopped up and edited go really hard with this and help to ground it.
I Feel You Right By Me is cool, more of a typical piano piece but by no means straightforward, which is right in line with the rest of the soundtrack. It has a hastening to it, but not a definitive direction - which I like. It's like being in a rush to go somewhere but you're not quite sure where.
This was a really unique entry, I think. You've got a very personal approach to how you arrange and I think that alone deserves commendation. Keep up the great work.
Kind of a weird soundtrack, but it is pretty interesting. I really like how you mixed the percussion in the first track, Blue Light. Good luck!
I liked the computer noises in the second track but the 3 tracks didn't really feel cohesive if that makes sense. Like going from blue light to bewildered didn't flow very naturally for me because of the computer noises though those were my favorite part.
I think with more connection between them and maybe some more instruments this could improve a lot.
I liked your OST, it gave me a feeling of introspection when I listened to it (especially "Blue Light"), and I think that fits the theme "inside my world" perfectly. Great job!
thank you very much
