Absolutely love the vibe of this soundtrack. It really reminds me of some platformers I've played a looooong time ago, but I can't remember which ones... Fantastic job!!

It's awesome how deep you've developed your story associated with each track! It makes visualizing what the gameplay would look like much easier and colorful, so I appreciate your effort very much. I love how diverse your orchestration is and how effectively they support the atmosphere and context of each scene being portrayed. Also enjoyed the sound design as well for immersion!! This was great!!

This is awesome!!! I loved every second of it, music and sound design equally. The acoustic sound elements along with the voice patch that occasionally shows up really adds to the atmosphere, and the aggressive bass-thingy seals the deal. I feel so unprepared for the monstrosities I'm going to be facing in this game. Amazing job!!
Also I love how you name your instruments in the DAW lol
Wow, thank you for such an in-depth response!! I really appreciate it!!
You nailed all the libraries that I used in this soundtrack. There's also a little bit of omnisphere in there, but only for a handful of notes.
For Medieval Battlefield, I recorded each part of the 3-part choir 4 times before layering the EW Choir over it. The mix is 40/60-ish, so you can probably hear the EW choir more, but the live vocals helped shape the vowels a little better. There are also low strings underneath, so I think that's the super-low stuff you were hearing.
I struggled with the mix of To Save Thy Soul a lot... the last few hours of composing was mostly me being indecisive of how much I wanted the solo parts to stick out at the climax point, which ended up with the accompanying string chords getting a little too soft. There was probably ear fatigue too, though. Definitely taking that percussive element advice, will apply in future works like this!
I love the contemporary vibe of the entire soundtrack! I think some of them like track 4 and 7 can totally be performed in a concert hall setting. Your production is so well polished and natural-sounding, and I especially enjoyed when synthetic elements were intertwined with the orchestral instruments to create a new kind of timbre. Amazing!!
