Description
Both tracks are calm, night-inspired songs that fit a quiet or reflective part of a game. Moonlit Reflections is more peaceful, Starlit Drift feels more open. I made them in Soundtrap. :)

Message from the artist
Thanks for checking these out. I just wanted to make something calm that fits the themes for the jam. Hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed making them.

Thanks
-Dylan :)

Theme

How does it fit the theme?
Both songs capture the calm night vibe. Moonlit Reflections feels like quiet moments under the moon, while Starlit Drift drifts through a dreamy, starry sky, fitting the theme perfectly.

Oh man this kicks ass.

I think the first track with the lo-fi female voice is very much vibing with the direction I took for the first track.

Great work.

Love the change-up towards the end of Moonlit Reflections. The vibes in both tracks are great, but I love the thick lo-fi atmosphere in Starlit Drift. The midway point change in the song is on point here, too. Solid work!

Thanks a ton! Really glad the switch-ups and lo-fi vibes landed well in both tracks.

Cool vibe and nice and beefy mix! For Drifting Reflections 2, I might use a bit less of the higher flanger parts and more aggressive basses, but the drums, chords and vibes were really nice!

Hey, thanks. I'll keep that in mind. Appreciate it.

These were some pretty good lofi tracks. 

I haven't listened to a lot of Lofi so I can't really say what in particular is done well or not but I enjoyed it.

Developer

Appreciate you giving it a listen, glad you liked the vibe!

Good work on these two tracks, love me some lo-fi style music. My favorite was "Moonlit Reflections" for sure, sounds like you got some inspiration from Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" when designing the melody, it works really well!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for checking it out! I’m glad you enjoyed ‘Moonlit Reflections.’ I did take a bit of inspiration from Moonlight Sonata, so happy it worked well! :)

Enjoyed listening to boulth tracks doh the first one had some unwhanted freguentcies the second one had a nice vice to it. Starlit drift reminds me od the Corru observer sountrack:D nice job doh im missing a story

Developer

Thanks for listening to both! I’ll work on those frequencies in the first one. Really cool that Starlit Drift reminded you of Clair Obscur. :)

Very cool vibe you have going on here. One piece of advice i will say is (related to the other comments) the drums on the first track are slowed down too much (low bpm), and that's what's causing the slightly jarring 'digitizing' effect, I remember running into the same problem. I like the second track a lot, Starlit Drift. Good sound selection too.

Thanks for giving them a listen! Appreciate the tip about the drums, I’ll keep that in mind. Glad you enjoyed Starlit Drift too. :)

Even though i feel like the drums are taking on the remaining instruments, we gotta acknowledge the good work !!

Developer

Appreciate you listening! Thanks for the feedback on the drums, and glad you still enjoyed it. :)

Fun ambient pieces, the percussion in Moonlit Reflections was a bit jarring, but regardless that was a very nice listen. Great job!

Developer

Appreciate you checking mine out! Glad you liked it, and I’ll definitely keep the percussion note in mind. :)

Very nice atmospheric tracks! They both fit the summer mood very well.

Developer

Thanks a lot! Happy to hear they gave off that summer vibe, and I really appreciate you checking mine out, too. :)

Good job with "Moonlight Reflections". I liked the melody and specially the second part. Curious to know if that was a sample or live singing.

I feel that the first part sounds like a pop song. So not sure if it goes well with the game. Also the mix is a bit too loud.

Developer

Hey, thanks a lot! The vocals were actually a sample. Glad you liked the melody and the second part. I’ll keep your feedback about the mix and style in mind for future tracks. :)

Both really relaxing and evoking of summer! My favorite was "Moonlight Reflections", thought the melodies were very nice and really liked the pizzicato section at the end!

Great Job!
