Message from the artist
Thanks for listening!
This OST was created using drums from Model:Cycles, kalimba, and a monosynth for the bass parts.
I layered all the audio tracks both forward and backwards so it is completely palindromic.
It was a very experimental process and less of a regular composition. As you can hear the result is a kind of strange and whimsical ambience.
Difficulty
C (Super Challenge)
Make something that has elements that can be listened to both backwards and forwards.

These were all super funky sounding in a good way!
They felt like they would fit as ambient music in a metroidvania to me.
good work!
Fantastic wandering alone in a dark city music. Love the mix of reverse/forward elements throughout, makes the palindromic nature shine through without being super obviously palindromic. Great stuff!
Atmospheric River was my favourite.
I like how they feel both eerie and calming at the same time. Great job at implementing the jam's theme, it feels natural and it makes the middle point blend very nicely!
First thing is entirely unrelated to the music, but I must say that your cover art is epic.
The second thing is this is weirdly giving me Samurai Jack Ambience vibes.
All in all, great experience.
Super ambient and eerie feeling. I really enjoy this piece. It almost gives a feeling of looming dread or anxiety while using calming chords and progressions at the same time. Awesome work!
Wow! I love how the different synths are forward or backward. It leaves the flip much less noticable and feels so alien mixed with lo-fi. Well done!
Love these ambients, really good job!
The whole vibe of this OST is amazing! And to stick to the hardest level of the challenge is very impressive. great work!
love it! it's weird but in a simple way
