The Observatory: The modal interchange sounds so cinematic and exudes whimsical energy straight from the start. The reverb on the low drone creates imagery of an expansive place like a very large library. The use of winds with the sparse piano gives a sound that is very palpable and almost antique-y which I think works really well to sell the “book” theme. Your music ebbs and flows using lots of quiet and calm space, just like a person sitting in a quiet cozy room reading a book only to occasionally move to turn the pages, all while quietly imagining lively tales that are curiously out of reach to on-lookers. You capture the mood of a book town with your compositional style well. Excellent choice of theme!

Did I imagine the town?: Yes. As noted above, the composition creates great imagery of a town with large halls and old hidden rooms with wonderful secrets within them. In the intro, I imagined a central building that seemed to be a unifying structure for the town that seemed to hold the most knowledge, which I imagined to be the observatory as your title suggests. Overall fantastic work and wonderful quality as well. Thank you for sharing!

Very nice! I was immediately impressed, it almost sounded like some official movie soundtrack! Then, at 0:30, you switch to the 'main course', a mysterious and indeed kind of 'booky' theme. I do find each measure to be a tad bit too long, given that you end up barely hearing the music for a long time (you do improve on that at 1:02, by having a continuous part, and at 1:34 even more). But overal, the song matches the theme surprisingly well, and it was real nice to listen to. Congrats!

Jaw wide open with the quality of the song. I can picture a lot of things with this song, but I also imagined myself being this little creature that lives among piles and piles of books. Really thought provoking!

I felt like I was listening the trailer of game the way it opened up. When the music became calmer I could envision text telling the story and lore of a game. The town was rich in knowledge and wisdom and held answers to secrets lost long ago.

Wooooow! This is great! I don't know what kind of sound bank you're using but besides being of high quality you know how to use it very well! I put 5 stars everywhere !

I listened with great attention to your composition and thanks to you I learned a new harmonic progression. Already, thank you for that! It is complex and yet easy to listen to.

Tell me if I'm wrong : C5b7M | D | F2/Ab | D/G | C13

Your music sounds like a movie or a triple A game.

Peaceful but heavy. The weight of knowledge?

I like the silence of your music, you take the time to install each chord. One can imagine the time passing and the time to think.

I loved it! At the beginning, it was a bit too chaotic and I think it could have used a bit more mixing with all the violins. But right when the piano kicked, that was so cooooool! 

nicely done, gg!
