Eden Core - I can totally see myself booting up a game with this piece as the first thing I hear. Excellent way to set the tone.

Battle for Cyberspace - Really like the way you develop this track, especially in the drums, while still making this feel like a battle theme. I like the use of darker harmonic movement that you used, especially in that first minute or so. Think I would've liked to have heard a touch more of that, or maybe starting in a darker key from the beginning while keeping those same harmonic movements.

Hyperspeed Frontal Assault - Violin and distorted guitars for this was a very cool choice that distinguishes this track from the first two. Feels like the whole gang's come to help the player character fight the big bad guy. I also liked how you were able to maintain that high energy throughout the whole track.

Take care, Partner - Liked the change to acoustic guitar right from the beginning. In my opinion some of those drum samples feel a touch out of place to my ears, but that's more a personal preference. They also feel a little too rigid to my ears, like they were heavily quantized. But I do like the tone of this piece overall and how you balanced the electronic instruments with the more acoustic ones.


Overall this was an excellent submission that has many clear, well developed ideas and some good lore to match. I like how you seemed to use more acoustic instruments when human characters were involved in the story. Very fun to listen to, and my notes above only came to me during my second full listen. While the production was great all around, my main bit of feedback would be about the somewhat lack of diversity in tone. You do a good job at changing up the arrangements from track to track but I think you could also do a similar job on the harmony/key signatures that you use IMO.

Thanks for taking the time to submit this, and keep up the good work :)

Thank you for listening and detailed feedback :)

I agree with you about the lack of diversity. Because of my lack of music theory knowledge, I decided to go with what I'm familiar with and focused more on sound design. I'll learn more about music theory in the future though.

About Take care, Partner, I used a stock drum samples, so yeah, I really should find more natural sounding drum samples. Thanks for pointing that out. Also, you're right about the drums being heavily quantized. I forgot to humanize them. I'll remember to do that in the future jam. 

Thanks again!
