i love the opening theme, the guitar is so nice and the chord progression throughout at the end of all things is so lovely! the live-recorded guitar has some slight imperfections (in a positive way) that gives it a really human feel - which i am a big fan of!

i adore fair of yesteryear, i'm a sucker for a cute little interlude!

beach games is such a good vibe! you really nailed that coastal, laid-back energy while keeping the energy fun and feeling good!

the return of the melody in twilight's farewell was really well done... it fits the energy of this track really, really well. i love it!

the final track is such a fitting conclusion to the whole project!

the only thing that i think could use a bit of work is mixing - on my headphones, i found the low end to be a bit muddy on occasion, but take that with a grain of salt - mixing is certainly not my strong suit!

overall, really strong compositions across the board, and a very enjoyable listening experience! your description was also so detailed and colourful, as i was listening and reading i felt like i could really envision your ideas and the landscapes. really lovely submission! :)

Thank you so much for listening!!! This is my first time receiving proper feedback on any of my music and it means a lot <3 I definitely have a lot of room to grow in the mixing department so I'm not shocked that the low end felt muddy. To be honest, I have trouble hearing that muddiness sometimes so it tends to go over my head and I have no idea how to address it lol but I am happy to hear that it was only a problem on occasion. Thanks again!!

it was really my pleasure! i'm not sure where you're writing your music, but something i've found helpful in terms of keeping good clarity in your mix:

1. you can try to use an eq to lower the volume of lower frequencies in certain instruments - i would recommend doing this for any instruments that don't have any important sonic information in that low register. for example, if your were using flutes, you could eliminate a lot of the low frequencies without changing the character of the instrument... this is especially helpful with any noisy samples of recordings!

2. you can also try to be really intentional about your composition! multiple lower register instruments playing different lines tend to clash a lot more than higher register instruments, so avoiding too many different melodic and/or harmonic ideas in the bass region can really be helpful! if you really want the character of multiple bass instruments at once, you can always try them in unison/octave apart!

i'm not sure if you genuinely were looking for a how to with this, but hopefully this helps you/anyone else who stumbles across this! again, i'm not an expert though, and the best thing you can do is just take a break from listening to your project, and come back later with fresh ears! :)

(but again, i have to reiterate: your project was so well done and fun to listen to!)

Thank you very much again!! I do try to keep those points in mind already but reminders are never harmful and sometimes we can take this stuff for granted so I appreciate it all the same! I've definitely been composing more with my ear in mind rather that rules that should just work, but I do think I probably need to be a little more intentional about that stuff going forward lol more than anything I just gotta improve my bass range hearing; it's always been something I've struggled with.
