Theme
How does it fit the theme?
The White Dragon is one of the mythical creatures that you'll face on your journey, but is it friendly or not? You will have to find out yourself. The Dragon represents the eternal force of time, powerful and cruel, tame it and you will master the Sand of Time.

When I listen to this song, I feel like we have to go back to nature. I feel the aspiration of the earth, I mean I wanna save the earth. I mean it’s great work.
Thank youuu!! We need to save the Earth! :)
Great job! I like the direction you took the theme.
Thank you! :)
Lovely composition! I never thought about the prompt in that way. Very creative
Oh thank you so much! :)
I really liked when the percussion came in but I think it might have been a bit to overbearing for the style of song I think it's trying to be. I think if the percussion was a bit quieter and had some reverb it would fit the vibe better.
That's just my opinion though. I enjoyed the plucked strings a lot!
Thanks for your opinion ! :)
This is such a creative take on the prompt. The sounds you chose work really well together, and I like how the plucked strings, at some points, bounce between the two ears. Very cool. I can definitely see this being background music to a chill game.
Thank you so much! :)
