Well done! I loved all the little details throughout the tracks (the pedals of the piano and the little sounds)! really well done! Really good crescendos on the piano from soft to super loud! Really nice!
This has gorgeous production and atmosphere, it especially reminds me of music from the Myst series. The attention detail is impressive and I really enjoyed this!
This was an excellent bit of storytelling. From start to finish I could sit back and feel like I was drifting through the galaxy. Your usage of unique harmonic movements and empty space was a great choice for this submission as a whole. I think track 3 was probably my favorite, as I feel it best captures how I'd imagine how I'd feel from an emotional perspective.
My main piece of feedback I'd like to share is to be careful with how loud you record your piano, as there's a bit of clipping going on in the fourth track (0:47 was the instance I heard). Additionally, I think I would've preferred the first track to fade out a bit instead of cutting off early.
Thanks for sharing what you made, and keep up the good work :)
Thank you, your compliments really mean a lot!! As for the feedback, I also really appreciate it. I don't know how I missed the part with the piano clipping in the fourth track. Also for the first track I literally thought the same thing before I submitted it, but when I opened the project to fix it, I realized my ShaperBox instance reset and I couldn't find or remember my preset, so I just had to let it go.
Very cool, really love the first track, you went all in on the reverb, great arrangement and storytelling, you also have some chord progression I did not except to hear I was fooled more than once, good job !
Thank you!!
