First entry I've heard with this much acoustic guitar focus! I enjoyed it a lot. Everything sounds clean. The bliss theme is super catchy. Real summer pop vibes.

I like the increasing intensity levels on the anxiety theme, though I feel like the chord progression alone is pretty intense even with just the guitar, and I wonder what it would sound like with more room for the emotion to ramp up - maybe starting off with some slightly less spicy chords, getting more dissonant as the additional layers come in.

I feel like the guitar parts are very nicely written, and they generally sound good, but maybe a little stiff on the single-note lines. A little more dynamic variation and maybe some legato embellishments could give it some extra texture. Going by your description I'm assuming it's a Kontakt library, though if it is, the strumming and the muted strokes make it feel more organic and physical than most virtual acoustic stuff I've heard.

really cool submission overall!

Thanks!

I thought that some simple acoustic guitar would be a nice change of pace, as most stuff on jams is often electronic or full symphony.

I agree that Anxiety could use a bit of build-up before going full dissonant - if it was a song on an album. I was thinking much more utilitarian, just turn it on the really intense moment. Inspired quite a bit with Zawazawa Suru from Spice and Wolf (which is OST I absolutely adore), just a lot worse xD

I am indeed using Kontakt samples here. I composed the thing on the actual guitar, but because of technical issues I wasn't able to record in time, so I went with VSTi. And as I know how it would be played IRL it was much easier to program and make it sound less robotic. Not perfect, but oh well.

Anyways, glad you liked it and thanks again for the feedback :)
