The mix is so lovely, you feel the fulness of the track at every moment, not one dead bit ! I love the composition and orchestration too, good mix of textures, synths and accoustic. My favorite is the march towards because boom boom reign supreme.  

I love the tracks present in this, especially "The march towards". I love EVERYTHING about this track the most. Its layering might be the best out of everything i have heard so far.  I love how joyous and yet serious the tracks sound in this album. I'm enjoying every bit of it. 

Certified banger. The layering here is impressive, there's a sense of scale in the pieces.  Great instrumentation and a great choice of sounds overall.  All the tracks are so fun, even the transition ones, and the mix of electronic with orchestral works really well. I can picture the game this is depicting and, yea, you nailed it. I got The March Towards on repeat. Great work, team.

I’ve always appreciated your guys’ expert approach to electronic music and your willingness to innovate and take risks.

Grimoire of New Discoveries - Very nice botanica-esque textures and rising effect. I also like the harmonies implied by the pitch-based sounds.

From Mystical Depths - Nice chord progression for a loop. There are some interesting mixing choices here, particularly regarding reverb. I would personally prefer the reverb to be the same or more similar across the different sounds, but more reverb on the stick might be enough in this case.

Song of the Forgotten Spirit - Cool transition in and out of the harp section, which could sound great with a harp glissando too. Harp was a nice addition, and the writing for it is pretty. I think the harp could benefit from sounding more realistic, either with a different library, dynamics, or slight rhythmic adjustments.

The March Towards - The bass sections are awesome, reminding me of a more gnarly version of some songs from Sayonara Wild Hearts. I especially like the vocal and bubble sounds. I think the orchestral section could be integrated better, and one cool idea could be to use the melody of that vocal sound from the previous section and have strings or winds play snippets of it here and there.

The Blue Beauty On That Day - Fantastic songwriting here, I love it. It can be challenging, but I think you did a good job of combining rock and electronic genres in one song. My favorite on the soundtrack!

Although it could be a bit more cohesive across tracks, this soundtrack is incredibly creative, showcasing a mastery of form and style. Awesome work!

Great submission all around. Each track was technically and compositionally impressive, and the vocaloid usage was fairly charming. The Rhythm game genre felt strangely lacking throughout all the submissions I've seen, especially considering how this is an album contest, so this felt refreshing.

I didn't expect a rhythm game to have so many ambient-ish tracks to it, but considering the description and context, it's not too out of the ordinary.

While I enjoyed each track individually, I think the album as a whole lacks a bit of a cohesive link between all of them. It didn't really feel like I was listening to tracks from a single album, but rather a collection of songs from multiple places. Not entirely a bad thing, since Everhood managed to pull it off pretty well, and considering the artist's message... Just food for thought.

As a final note, the last track is an absolute fucking banger, like, individually probably one of my favs in the whole jam. It's now safely stored forever on my running playlist, which is the highest honor I can give a song. Great animation, too. Congrats!

WOW! First of all, great work to all three of you who worked on this. I think this has one of the best mixes out of all the submissions I've listened to. Also, the sound design is truly something else, especially in that first track (I had to listen again with my headphones to catch all the details). The blend of Lo-Fi, ambient soundscapes, electronic, EDM, rock, and even a few orchestral sections made for quite an experience. Even with this being a rhythm game, you would expect just straight EDM bangers, but there was some great variety, like that orchestral part in track 4. If I had one criticism, I think you could have more melodic development and recurring motifs throughout the OST to really tie the narrative together, but the production quality absolutely makes up for it. Amazing job!

Overall I really liked that atmosphere you achieved through the different voice/string/synth textures. It was a very interesting blend of ambient/experimental electronic music with more orchestral parts. The only negative feedbacks I have would be: The March Towards had very cool basses, but I kinda lacked some melodic lead or sounds with higher frequencies to have a little break from the basses. The voice in The Blue Beauty On That Day sounded a bit weird to me, and too close. I feel like its volume was a bit too high, and that low pass filter made the voice sound too dry/muffled, which made the voice sound detached from the rest of the instruments. It was very good when there was a lot of high-end and when the voice had a lower volume, making it sound more distant (near 1:02). You could also try to add a high-pass filter on top of that low-pass filter to make it sound more radio-ish. It could work as well.

Nonetheless, it was a very interesting soundtrack. Very great job !

Completely different to anything I've checked out so far! The rhythm game idea is genius.

This is great, love the mixing especially f- HATSUNE MIKU??!?!

(and that bass!)

Favourite track: The Blue Beauty On That Day

This was sick I did NOT expect Miku but The Blue Beauty is my favorite in the submission, you guys did an awesome job

I remember you from the previous jam and seeing you here again is great! Just like this OST tho, your mixing is truly something
