There’s too much to say about every track, so I’ll keep things short by talking about my favorite track from the bunch!

Clouds stood out to me. This track fits its associated biome perfectly. From the ambiance to the subtle melody and bass-line, it sounds like something straight out of Lena Raine’s Nether Update soundtrack, something that I personally failed to achieve. Hearing this track in-game, I would’ve assumed that it’s a vanilla track. A masterpiece.

It’s extremely impressive that you were able to produce tracks for such a wide variety of biomes! I thoroughly enjoyed my experience with these tracks.

All the musics are sooooo cools, I don't really know how to start ! I'll try to make justice to your insane work (14 pieces ?!) with a detailled feedback : 

  1. Two Weeks :  Music for Menu are so hard to compose, but you did it pretty well. Love the harmonies, never felt "easy", gave a kind of a "japanese" vibe to the ensemble. If I had one thing to say, the dynamics on the main piano may be a little too angry for the vibe and for a menu. I'd like to hear what the piece sound like with a piano playing, you know... pianissimo.
  2. Even The Piano is Lonely :  First of all, that's such a creative idea ! The piano, alone, the player too. I can picture it so clearly ! Again, love the chords and second voicing, alway pertinent and rich. On the negative side of things, I feel like a more "uniform" piano may reinforce the title and the main idea of the track : the melody piano and the chords piano are quite distinct, so don't lie to me : the piano is NOT LONELY !!! 
  3. Falling Dunes : It gave me a terraria vibe, I love this kind of ambiance. The drums are too loud by moments, I guess to keep the deep impact sound intact. 
  4. Splash Me If You Can : Really adventurous theme, love it ! The sounds are 100% "minecrafty", really good choice. The main handpan (I think it's an handpan ?) may be a little too distorted by instant. 
  5. Lovers At Last : Again, fantastic harmonies, I think it's your strenght. On this one I'm a little confused, I like it a lot, it's really well made, but I feel like it would be very strange to have it play on a basalt delta in game. So I'd say, great music, but maybe a little off-topic ?
  6. Play With Your Food : God damn you are good with titles. Same as the lonely piano : you tell a story with a title. The rythm with droplets and a cavernous handpan is just fantastic, I have chills. The evolution keep the music fresh and I just can't get enough of it. A favorite of mine.  
  7. Frozen Morning : This one kind of write itself, cold piano and frozen strings : that's not a bad thing tho, you made it really well. I'm 100% overanalyzing but I really feel like your strong abilities to do melodies and fantastic harmonies really shine with simple yet thoughtfull orchestration. 
  8. This May Be Sillyand we are here for it. Who doesn't love a silly forest theme ? Not Zelda players, that's a fact. The sounds are a little harsh by moments, the brass especially may need a little more work to really fit the rest. But I'm really fussy. 
  9. Straight Swampin' : Same as lovers at last, I really loved the music, I'm a synth-80's-moody boy, but I'm not quite sure if I would like it in context. Except for the bass (I love it so much) who really feel "muddy", the rest is strangely aerial for a Swamp. 
  10. Clouds : Really, really strong song. Less is more, the sounds are few but well made and well timed, nothing to say except well done. Nailed the vibe, the composition, the ambiance. 
  11. My Feet Can't Touche The Ground : blablabla, really good with title, telling a story with few words, you get it. More on the "panda / bamboo" side of the jungle, really cool ! Some of the articulations on the flute are really really good, I'm more reserved about the choirs in the background, but that's really about taste. 
  12. Baroquian Sins : Did I told you that you are good with titles ? I can't remember. Again strong piano piece, cool melody, really good harmonies. The issues I hear are the same than "Even The Piano Is Lonely" and "Two Weeks" : the piano articulation may be a little too angry and harsh all the time, play more with nuance and you'll have a masterpiece. 
  13. Place More : Solid piece, I love the piano articulations on this one ! More nuanced. I have so little bad things to say about this song, the only thing that came to my mind was "the tempo may be a little fast". It shows how much I have nothing to reproach. 
  14. Soul Sand Basin : It gave me Xenoblade Chronicles vibe, that's a compliment. Well, the strenght and weaknesses are the same than on all your piano pieces : really cool melodies, amazing harmonies, a little too fortissimo and lack some nuances. Other than that, what a cool piece of art. 

Well, that was quite the journey ! I'm bad at goodbyes, so I'll make a small conclusion : you made 14 pieces, the worst being really good. That's quite an accomplishment, I tip my hat to you. GG

14 tracks for this jam is absolute insanity! I applaud you for the work that you have put in! My personal pick is "Play With Your Food" for the textures that you had incorporated in the track. Keep it up!

All right, i'm impressed by the fact you did 14 songs when you only had to do one , if I had to pick which is the best I really love what you did for Clouds and Play with your food. But if I had to judge which one I would go for Clouds, I think you nailed the vibe, it fits perfectly well done.
