I thought to myself, "where do I remember the name 'Ray Nexus' from?" And then, when I scrolled through your works, I figured: "It must be from Songtember!" If that is so, it has been a while; good to see you hear :)

I can tell from your artist message that you had little time to make this, which explains the the repetitiveness and simplicity of the songs. Murnai has a great beat to it and a cool melody, but I just wished for some more variations - whether that be new instruments, new melodies, or new chord progressions. The sustained note in the bass gets stale after a while, and you could switch it up by going for alternative baselines. Nest feels really fitting for a mystical dragon environment with the echoing notes and choir. You've got a solid start, but here too, I would love to see more variation. I notice the common pattern of incrementally adding instrumentation, but sadly that often leads to the same chords and melodies playing for the entire duration. A good example of a song that incrementally adds instrumentation but also switches it up so now and then is Deltarune's 'Scarlet Forest'.

Overall, nice entry, and good to see you here again :D

Hey M8, good to see you here nwn
My complain comes not for the simplicity of the song (a little yes, but not totally), but for quantity. Yes, I want to polish a little more the 2 songs, but the original idea was a 4 (maybe 5) songs, but some Unforeseen Consequences, don't let me continue the proyect like I wanted. My idea was make a minimal ambient songs, more like contemplative stuff, so yeah, this songs follows the idea, BUT (like I said before) the lack of time just don't let me polish this like i want.

I hope see you in future jams nwn <3

Man using this software is a throwback! I like the sense of atmosphere you establish in the Nest, and the rhythms established in Murnai give me really old school vibes. I think your good musical ideas are limited by the quality of the sounds available to you, but these submissions are cool!
