Description
In this imaginary game, you are trying to survive in a world that was once technologically advanced 100 years ago. Humanity is on the blink of extinction, and you are one of the last remaining humans in this world. You scavenge for food and scraps just to survive, while exploring abandoned futuristic cities.

Below are the descriptions for each track.

Intro ~ The Dawn of New:
You wake up like any usual days outside the abandoned city. Preparing for exploration and scavenging.

Exploration ~ Remained Future:
Imagine the cyberpunk city but left abandoned and some of its electronics still functioning. You are exploring there, searching for everything that is useful.

Battle ~ Unexpected Visitor:
An AI system, once responsible for the city's security, unexpectedly comes back online during your expedition. It identifies you as an intruder and unleashes waves of mechs to hunt you down. Now, you must fight your way through the machines and survive the encounter.

Message from the artist
Hello, Altonasphere here!

This is my second time submitting tracks for OST Composing Jam (after Overtime).

I have to admit. I didn't expect the jam to last for a week, so I was thinking of submitting only one track, but the fact that I got 3 tracks done is really surprising for me. Especially the battle track, I was like, "you know what, screw it, I will make the wackiest song I can made", and it become one of my favorite works of all time.

I hope you all enjoyed listening to my submission. And hey, have a good day :)

Theme

Songs of a Forgotten World

How does it fit the theme?
The forgotten world here was futuristic so, electronic music should fit. I think. Yeah, definitely.

Really cool soundtrack! The last song, Battle ~ Unexpected Visitor, is really chaotic and gives me some eurobeat vibes, I love it. Good job!

I really enjoyed the electronic vibes and unique sounds! 

My favorite is Remained Future, it's an amazing track specially as it has a good balance between the electronic sounds and the exploration idea, and there's that violin like synth at the end that's just (can't put into words) mwah qwertyuasdfawbeautiful. Thanks for sharing your music!

i reallyyyy LOVE the sound design on these, as in all these details you added to build this vibe, it really fits well for the game you imagined in my opinion!

also, i can relate a lot to what you said in your message, usually the times when i make crazy stuff and get out of my comfort zone, at first i'll be like "what am i even doing here", but as i continue they become some of my favorite things i've made!! you should definitely be proud of unexpected visitor, it is a BANGER

overall awesome entry!!! sorry to be unable to leave a rating though (didnt submit so i can't)

btw, i remember you from OST Overtime Team Everyone, that's why i wanted to check out your entry heh, i knew it was gonna be really good!

leaving my review notes here for you:

Really enjoyed this journey!

Generally, I think these fade outs on the second two songs feel misplaced, maybe you’re intending these to be looped? Didn’t dock points, but I know you could do a better ending because the quality on display for these tracks is next level.

Some great use of pitch bending/time stretching! Reallly cool soundscape.

Intro: I wasn’t the biggest fan of this one, but I think it fit your theme of it being sort of wandery and disoriented. I did like the chromatic movements you had going on generally I just wasn’t feeling the phrasing.

Exploration: love the soundscape and pitch bending stuff, got a little bored in the bridge with the melodic lines I think. Definitely fits the theme and I can visualize the story you’re telling, good stuff!

Battle: f*ing love this one. The chorus’s are killer. The melody lines are wild, just great all around. This is your crowned jewel for sure

Thank you for listening and honest feedback :D

I intended the exploration and battle theme to be looped in game, hence the results, but I can understand where you are coming from. I will try to incorporate your feedback into my future creations.

Great submission! "Remained Future" hits pretty hard, i liked all the electronic sounds on background, they reminded me of the Terraria OST.  Battle theme is also great
