Description
My interpretation of the image is that it represents a perfect scenario: the sun is setting, trees are beginning to blossom, and a beautiful girl stands in the middle of it. This scene might be someone’s dream or imagination. The song progresses and gradually becomes a bit unaligned, representing the realization that the picture is not real — it is just a foolish escape from reality, which might be very different. So yeah that's all ig.

Hmhmh, first things first, mixing is pretty rough ngl, mids do be all over the place, do be like that when u layer strings+synth+organ+bass, highs on guitar could be scooped better, coz personally hear way to much high ambient input noise. However I love the guitar tones overall, love those mathrockish taps/slides, composition overall is super nice. Verygj
Thanks man and than you for pointing out what should i work on next, im gonna try and improve those aspects for my next tracks.
Very unique submission here! But in a good way. That guitar went wild. That medley really went wild also! Great work!
Thanks for the kind words :)
I love this take on the theme. I see it as a very positive and 'fun' vibe—matching the idea of spring, flowers blooming, and so on! Various melodic elements that fit perfectly with each other. Really awesome work!
Pretty wild soundtracl. way more experimental than I expected, at first I was going for an almot prog rock vibe but not at all you switched context pretty drastically, some pars was a little hard to listen in terms of harmonic and melodic use but for the experimental part it works well of course. Very unique take, probably the most unique i've heard so far on the jam.
Thanks for the kind words and for pointing out what I should work on next :)
The guitar sounded really good here! Heard lots of variation in sounds here so it was an interesting listen, great job!
Glad you’ve liked it!
Love the nostalgic, carefree and floating feeling of this piece. Had no idea I'd get to listen to a track arranged with all live electric guitar/bass, but I am pleasantly surprised. This sounds so good, you know what you're doing and it shows. The way you introduce static/noise and then saturation into the 2nd half of the song sounds intentional and really cool. Giving me Tame Impala vibes, especially the saturated chaotic drumming near the end. Very cool choice of harmonies here, and the unconventional tapping/sliding guitar techniques add a lot of texture. Great stuff!
Oh my god Tame Impala is favorite artist! It’s cool that you find my track similar to his work, that’s the best compliment I could have received for my music :)
