Description
DAW: Reaper
I just used virtual instruments like: Vital, Rhapsody, Ample Guitar M II Lite, Ample Bass P II Lite and so on.
I was a bit impressed with the quality of the guitar, one of the first times I really used it
Genre: Instrumental, Ambient, Calm
I was thinking of narrative-centered games like Life is Strange 2, Detroit: Become Human and so on
Theme
How does it fit the theme?
For me, freedom is like a gentle, calm breeze, as if everything is different and new things are to come

AAAHHHH CUTE KITTY! YOU BOUGHT MY SOUL!
Nice, soulful track... It makes you want to cry a little bit of joy :_
P.S. Rawr!
yeah, i have to agree, that guitar is quite nice... i really like how subtle the guitar-strumming is, considering how prominent guitars would usually be in a piece. this track is really calming and nice; matches the track name quite well!! :~)
i really like how gently the arrangement transitions over time, it's a bit slow but it also doesn't detract by maintaining the overall mood that you've established from the start. nice work overall!
The electric guitar really does sound like it's being played freely with all that reverb and space, it's very ambient and really lovely to listen to. Great job!
Really nice voicings in this; some more subtle than others but all of them working in tandem to really complement one another. I love how the rhythm is dictated by the strumming in the earlier section to provide a sense of pulse to the piece. The long sustained notes in the background do a great job keeping the key tones relevant as the orchestral strings and guitar play over and around.
This was fun to listen to and pretty unique, honestly. The combination of instruments isn't something I've seen too much of in this jam, and they all work together so well. Kudos for the dynamics on the guitar playing in particular - it sits so wonderfully back in the mix and never overreaches or steps over other elements. Great work!
A very calming track! Great job :DDD
Also thank you for listing the guitar VST, it sounds the most "real" than anything I've come across before

It's nice to get some upbeat/hopeful takes on the theme! I actually got Life Is Strange vibes before reading your inspirations, so top job there!
This is really well put together and is a solid fit for the vibes in the games you described. Impressive how well everything is placed in the mix, good stuff!
I really love this. It makes me feel that feeling of freedom after passing through something difficult! Bravo!
Would maybe have loved to hear that Oboe a little more forward in the mix at the end, its new, and generates interest!
Fit the theme great!
The song is amazing! good mixing, good panning. and most importantly, a lovely tune. It feels like that sort of "creative mode" freedom.
Also, are you on linux? if so, sick!
Thank you very much for your reply and yes, I'm on linux! More specifically on Arch Linux using Sway WM, as a window manager.
yess! sway is pretty clean, i was trying to swap to linux but couldn't figure out how to live record my guitar on there properly, ill try again in a year because linux is sweeet!
i love how chill and almost tropical it feels, i think of a pleasant vacation listening to this. great work!
This was a very pretty track!
I think more could have been done to fit the theming but it was still a great listen!
Beautiful stuff, such a homely feeling from this!
