Thank you! 

Honestly I'm not in love with the violin sound either. I haven't messed around that much with orchestral VSTs, so I kept it simple for the jam, but if/when I pick this up again, I'll definitely do some tweaking.

thank you! i really like writing melodies and thought i'd play to my strengths for the jam by keeping the voice count low. the intro/ortni was kind of a late addition - i felt like the added density in the arrangement would give it a little bit of weight that it lacked without.

now i'm thinking about ways i could iterate on this piece in the future!

awesome on every level. really rose to the challenge of implementing the reversed sounds in a way that genuinely enhances the composition.

really cool sound design! and so many MIDI crabs on the piano roll

Thank you! It's technically a music box, but that's just a player kalimba so you still get full credit

just incredibly sick

my understanding of the idea behind category C was that the fully rendered audio would play the same backwards and forwards - i.e. if you dropped the final .wav you uploaded to itch.io into StudioOne and reversed it, it would sound identical. your orchestration uses a lot of short attack/longish release instruments (pizz strings/harp, bass drum, do I hear a piano?) that sound much different when played in reverse.

cool composition though!

damn dude

These are wonderful but how am I the first to comment on the track colors? A+ attention to detail

So sick! Love the part after the turn where the bass "enters" (i.e. "becomes recognizable")

I like this a lot! The way you build around that ostinato is really cool.

love the Tomorrow Never Knows-style guitar solo through the turnaround!

Really like the extensions in the phrasing on the walking theme, they add some cool variation on the return trip. Also that click that feels like it's coming from like 5 feet behind me even though I'm wearing headphones.

love the sound design. the symmetrical "kick" is so sick
