Oooo as a monster hunter fan I loved thissss, got those feels instantly! the section at about a minute ten seconds was my favorite with the piano melody was so pretty... 

oh my god and then the piano melody AGAIN at 2:08 ish... so good!! 

The whole piece felt so powerful and adventurous, i loved it! could totally see this being in a video game :)  

This was great! I really liked how it felt like each track kind of led into each other, i can really feel like the soundtrack is telling a story. I think my favorite was Break Through Reality with the electric guitar in the back, i thought that was a cool element to add! I also thought Dreaming of Sun and Rise and Shine were beautiful,  they both sounded very related which i really like, as if the first one is dreaming of the escape and the last was the escape itself.  Super cool stuff i really enjoyed listening :))

the guitars in this track is crazy!! i love when things pick up a minute in, the drums and the backing guitars go harddd its awesome :))

would have liked to see some changes in mixing with the lead guitar, like something more distorted when it gets higher energy? either way its great , this was a really fun listen! well done!!

this is really impressive if you're new to music production! its a great start, everything sounds great notation wise, and i really liked your sound choice with the pads and then strings that come in.  You definitely pull off that bittersweet feeling! overall you should be proud of your work, i hope to see you in upcoming jams! Good work :)

I really like how much ambience there is in Bound, all of the sounds you put in create this somewhat unsettling and mysterious  feel to it, its really cool! Then Free changes the feels drastically, its a very cute and soft sounding song,  getting huge freedom vibes from this! It's very interesting how different these two tracks are, I wish there was more time for you to make more for this soundtrack! really good job !!

Thank you so much :))

the strings on this were so beautiful and had so much weight and emotion to it! I also loved the flute to accompany it.

also the way its composed in general feels like a story in itself its fantastic, and mixing is great! super well done :)

these tracks were beautiful! i love how emotional and uplifting they felt. i really enjoyed how you composed all of your orchestral elements.  i particularly liked when the drums came in on "Inner Conflict" :) really good job! 

These tracks scream video game in my opinion. The first 2 feel dark and badass, and really fit the cyberpunk theme you mentioned. I loved the beginning guitar in the third track! Sometimes I feel like a different synth could be used to fit the song better, for example the one at the 1:00 mark in the third track. That's just my opinion though, small nitpick haha. Otherwise great composition and ideas, I had a great time listening to this! Rly good job :) 

Very pretty track! i found the mixing of all the instruments was particularly impressive. I really like the strings and bells throughout the song. It all has a really nice and warm upbeat feeling to it, super chill to listen to. Really good work :)

i like the high energy on this one! Going over the story you wrote, I can totally see this being apart of the game you're describing! I like the drums in this track especially! also cool cover art! Good work :)

I really liked this submission! The first track gives me a sort of lost feeling, i like it a lot with the delayed piano and ambient sounds and such. "fleeing from a cloaked spectre" especially stood out to me, i loved the piano melody so muchhh. I also really liked the guitar at the end, i just found the transition happened a bit fast haha, but overall fantastic job!

very relaxing to listen to! i especially enjoyed the electric guitar on "The will to be free" , and how calm and peaceful "Longing for" is. makes me think of like sitting by the fire with a hot chocolate lol

amazing work though! super fitting of the theme in my opinion :)

this was such a gorgeous piece... every orchestral element was done so beautifully and the vocals toward the end oh my god.... i love how complex the progression feels, it feels like a real adventure to listen to, amazing amazing work, some of the best composition ive seen!!

these were both very pretty pieces! I really liked your work with the strings especially :) good job!

this one stands out for sure to the other submissions, super impressive with how many live instruments were used for this! I love the way this was composed, it really gives off that wild west theme you were going for.  I think the fact that all of this could have been recorded in 48 hours and put together is incredibly impressive, great work!

I loved these tracks!! I was groovin the whole time i love the high energy, it really captures the feeling of freedom really well. I'm especially a fan of all of the synth choices, they all fit together super nicely. The progressions in both tracks are super interesting too! Quality of production and mixing were fantastic as well, im super impressed! Great work :)

These tracks were really great! I really liked Lucid for the piano melody, its very catchy :) although with the melody on the electric guitar i find that the first few notes are a bit too short, but thats a very small nitpick. Reverie also has great piano and the electric guitar on this one is fantastic! this ones a banger. Also general comment, I love the way you mix your drums. overall, really good job :)

this submission was awesome!! i loved track 2 and 4 in particular, with all the electronic ambient sounds in "no you don't" and then all of the orchestral elements in "now you do" were beautiful. really well done!

Really good job with this! congrats on your first jam, this is really solid!! for a "complete amateur" like you said, the quality and composition is incredibly impressive, I loved the plucks that come in the second part along with the staccato strings are really nice.  I can totally see this being a nice background song to a chill part of a game. awesome job :) 

This was a super cool submission! So many creative ideas throughout the song kept the listen really interesting. Well done!

This is was so cool! Definitely wasn't expecting a zombie survival theme. The sheer amount of music created in this short amount of time with this quality is insane! I think you captured the feel you were going for really well, i love the intense high energy feel this whole soundtrack has. My favorites were VILE and VITALIZE. I think my only criticism is the leitmotif melody that kept popping up, to me it felt like its the main melody for most of the songs when in my opinion it should be used a little more carefully so it's something fun to recognize and doesn't end up getting stale.  amazing work though this was incredible!

This was so fun to listen to!!! I love the bumper and on-air versions of the 2 songs. The transition from bumper to on air with Frenzied Parade was so fire!!!

Overall this submission is super creative with the story and ideas it presented,  i also thought the production quality and compositions were great! super amazing job :)

This was insane.  Production quality on each track is wild and each track is so creative and unique. I think my favorite was A Quirky Dealer... absolute banger! One of my favorites I've heard, amazing job :)

Hey, thanks so much! Happy to hear you enjoyed each track. I can totally understand the stale criticism, definitely could have added some more variation for sure and probably would've if the jam was longer. I appreciate the listen and feedback!

Thank you so much for this in depth feedback! I'm glad you enjoyed each track and its variety, and that you got what I was trying to convey in each one as well.  I appreciate the compliments on production and mixing (and everything else)! :D 

I'm glad you think so :)

heyy thanks so much! I'm glad you see the vision with the strings :) i'm also happy you weren't put off by the variety, this definitely eases my main worry about the project haha. I appreciate the listen!! Been meaning to listen to your submission soon, can't wait!

Thanks for the feedback, yes that is the biggest problem i had with the soundtrack was how ambitious the story idea i had was. The timeline is supposed to go from an exciting upbeat beginning to something a lot more sad and reflective toward the end of the story. so because of that it was difficult to blend the two smoothly in such a short amount of time. Sorry to hear that caused a disconnect for you, but I'm glad you enjoyed the tracks anyway! :)

Thanks so much! :)

Thanks so much!!! you pictured exactly what I was trying to convey, I'm glad! I was hoping to add something that implies a little more danger in between the high energy song and the reflective, sad song but no time :( 

I'm glad you enjoyed each track despite how different each of them are.

OH NO you found Giratina... it autoplayed after for me too I was wondering if that would happen to other people LOL i guess its a little easter egg

And thanks for the kind words on my previous submission! I remember hearing yours a while back and Ioved your submission as well, you are super talented!!!

i really like your story idea and how fitting the music is to it. Each song that ties to each part of story i can clearly envision in my head as a part of the game. Break Out Duo was bumpy, and the last track was beautiful, i liked them a lot! Really well done with this submission!

yoooo this was bumping as helll!!!  for 3 hours of work this is insanely impressive, well done!

this was a really fun listen! i especially loved how much piano presence there was and the really fast arpeggio in the second track gave it a nice energy. I think the composition is great! I would've loved to hear some instruments on the lower-end. a nice bass on the second track especially would really add a lot i think! Great work though i enjoyed this submission :)

this was beautiful! i really enjoyed how the composition moves and transitions from the louder and quieter sections. the staccato strings in the middle were especially nice, and i liked the way you balanced the instruments stereo-wise. well done!

Wow i love how experimental and creepy it is! My favorite one was Bonus Level Theme, the drums and bass and that went craaazy! I can totally see how all of these fit the story you described, all of these definitely give this unsettling feeling and can hear the desperation to escape in the music. fantastic job, this is one of the most unique ones ive heard in this jam!

I think you nailed what you were trying to go for! i totally see this being an escape the manor thing.  the soundtrack is composed very well and feels mysterious and quirky like you were going for. good job!

Thank you! that's a good idea, i definitely should have added some more to the final bit. Rebel was the final track I made of the 3 so time was sadly almost up when i finished. would've loved to add what you suggested or even extend the song further. I appreciate the listen and feedback!

I liked the composition here! you definitely pulled off what you were going for well- really felt like an escape track. well done!

super awesome drops! the final boss vibes are nuts with this! the production is good but just a bit quiet. well done!!!
