Nice job creating an atmosfere of mistery and cobfort. This track screams japan for me!
Thank you!
I really liked the spirit of adventure in your piece Sandra! Plus the cover art looks awesome. Very smart in terms of choice of instruments and development of the song. Enhorabuena!!
Thank you Layla. Its a pleasure meet you again in other jam 😊. I'm glad that you like it !
Very lovely and charming track, very well done.
thank you!
Feels like I'm about to go questing. I'm here for it. Love it.
Thank you Johnny! for your words :)
I like the instrumentation. Nice work!
Thank you!
Perfect job for super challenge!
Thank you!
The drums were my favorite part I liked how echoey they were!
I think something that would improve this piece a lot would be more dynamics since as it is it stays the same intensity for most of the song it feels.
I'm glad that you like it! Thank you.
The composition is very well done! It would be nice if you could describe the story you had in mind behind the music… I imagined it almost like one of the old Zelda games. You definitely hit the mark with me, as I was able to envision a world without you explaining it in words, just through the use of music.
Oh! Thank you so much! I was thinking on that promt to create the music environment and, is really good reading comments like yours. Thank you!
Great overall composition! The enchanting forest vibe really came through, it sounded magical. Only issue is that I think this is a better fit for category B - it didn't sound to me like the actual audio was reversed, just the notes.
I really appreciate your comment. Well, actually made a music sheet as you said, that could be fix on B challenge but, moreover I made it that all the song sounds exactly backwards and fowards, and, each part of that (compases) separately also sounds the same backwards and fowards. I made a backwards try and sounds the same. I dont know more 😆🫣. Thank you!
my understanding of the idea behind category C was that the fully rendered audio would play the same backwards and forwards - i.e. if you dropped the final .wav you uploaded to itch.io into StudioOne and reversed it, it would sound identical. your orchestration uses a lot of short attack/longish release instruments (pizz strings/harp, bass drum, do I hear a piano?) that sound much different when played in reverse.
cool composition though!
