The orchestration and rhythm are really well done in this composition! I’m really glad I didn’t miss it (this is probably one of my last ratings).

I loved the energy in your tracks. Super bouncy and catchy, with some really interesting chords being used. Imagining the fireflies as little harp sounds is a very creative interpretation too. I'm glad you were able to submit for this jam, thanks for sharing!

The urgency of Led by Light had me on the edge of my seat. I love all of the bursts of colors, bristling textures, and the mercurial melodic material. What an exhilarating ride, and a real breathe of fresh air. You create a fantastic portrayal of all the creatures swirling below, then emerging from water, taking flight. Your music evokes a breathtaking scene!  I would love to hear more.

Very pretty, nice submission, short and sweet :)

Having the fireflies be represented by little metallic harp sounds over strings is exactly the kind of thing I am looking for when relating the composition to the theme!

I like how energetic and frantic it sounds without coming across as dangerous too. It finds a good balance.

Came to check this out real quick cause I remembered that someone recommended this submission in the server, it was probably IndieKev. This is so well orchestrated!! The chords and sound layering sound nearly professional, I could imagine hearing this in a Philharmonic or Symphony, perfect for a professional level ensemble or highly advanced youth ensemble. Hope this submission does well, amazing work!

Led by Light: I love the way the harmonies you use relate to each other. They don’t really follow classical progression structures and instead they flit along where they want. This effect gives a whimsical and light feel to your track. This is quite impressive and I am curious as to how you go about writing this style of music? I often will sing melodies to start my compositions, but it seems like that approach would not be very easy here.

Awakening: I closed my eyes listening to this one. It reminds me of a Fantasia-style animation score where the music is completely scored to the events on the screen as a lot of things are happening in rapid succession. You have a unique style that captures and maintains my attention and is quite descriptive, which is sometimes challenging to do. I’m really glad you decided to submit! Thank you for sharing!

Wow this is amazing. My favorite submission so far!!!

Fantastic mix, fantastic work.

Great storytelling as well. The latter half of the last track I think was also the best, and it really sold it overall for me. Great work!

The composition is rich but not cluttered. The story is also simple but a nice image.

Very nice arrangement there is alot of things happening, without even reading the description I could tell the storytelling through the music, the mix is fantastic everything is very fluid. Well done, fantastic work.

probably the best one I've heard so far, my ears are in ecstasy. The racing piano and violins staccatos kinda remind me of Sky: Children of The Light OST

This is incredible! Really love your composition, I love how bouncy and free the piano feels in Led by Light

My beloved, everything is perfect from start to finish. You are always my number #1 spot and I hope I can someday reach that level of incredible composition. Literally perfection!

What an incredible submission. Only two songs but it leaves such a strong impression! The creativity in these pieces as well as the way it managed to completely paint a picture of the story, complementing the art is incredible! Great submission!

Damn, I love this! Both songs sound amazing. I really wish I could write fast-paced pieces like this. Congrats on the incredible work!

Yes!!! Yes!!! Everything in Led by Light tickles my brain in all the right ways this is so satisfying to listen to god. The way it jumps around both rhythmically and harmonically is just goals for orchestral stuff tbh. 

Awakening is just more peak. Every chord is so good I'm.1`,;hhhhhhhh Very cool and AWESOME and cool submission :)

OH SHIT THIS IS FIRE I LOVE the complexities of the CHORDS

excellent! led by light and awakening sound  very triumphant and energetic

The harmonic development was just awesome in Led by Light. I think some more percussion (I'm thinking some Taiko hits) during the bigger moments would elevate it even more. Awakening was a good continuation of what you set up in the previous track. Would have loved to hear more, but you were under a time crunch haha. Great work!
