Very lovely and chill songs. The mix of emotional solo strings and R'n'B ish percussions feels at first a bit odd, but once you get used to it, it is really cool.

While both songs a well done, some explenation of your through process and or imagined game and how it fits the theme would have been nice to get a clearer view (or reference point).

Developer

Thanks for the feedback - Working on adding more explanation to future submissions - seems to be a common request - appreciate it

Submitted

Yeah it depends on the jam. For this one it is somewhat tied to an imaginative game or story therfore. So that is the reason why people ask for this stuff. In some other jams this isn't really nessecary but still a nice to have to get some point of view from the composer :)

Submitted

I love the music you created just from the vibes. I would have liked to know a deeper story, but even so, the music already told me a lot. Great job!

Developer

Thanks a lot - Definitely working to get better with that - I tend to focus on just the music - working on adding more of the story to my submissions

Reeeaaally nice summer night vibes. I can get a pretty good sense of the visuals and story the game would tell from it. I feel like the violin is a little on the quiet side when it’s carrying the melody and being the focal point, though. But the composition feels very solid to my ears and the songs don't get repetitive to listen to at all, so I can see it looping really well in a game. The two songs are also nicely distinct while still being cohesive. Very fun to listen to and get immersed in!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback

Hey cool music, what plugin did you use for the violin? :)

Developer

I found this plugin awhile ago the Boheniam Violin by Virharmonic but wait for a sale because it's not cheap

Submitted

I really liked the electric piano and your choice of instruments in general.  Super atmospheric, great work!

Developer

Thanks a lot

Loved the melancholy and the flow of these tracks. The strings and ambient elements really make it relaxing and immersive. I could totally imagine this in a visual novel or RPG scene. Nice job!

Developer

Appreciate that

Submitted

I love the melancholy! Some more thoughts on the game and process would be nice, but good composition!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback - that's probably the part I struggle the most with but I'll look to add more of my thoughts to the submissions

Submitted

Beautiful melancholic melodies, it's best to rest after a day at work and get stuck in some small toy to these melodies.

Developer

Really appreciate the feedback

Submitted

I would love more info on how it fits the theme from your perspective beyond just vibes.

Like, do the instruments represent anything? That sort of thing.

The songs were pretty vibin and I liked them though.

Developer

Thanks for the feedback - I probably struggle the most with adding my thoughts to submissions - I just went with the feeling I got from the picture for this one and let that carry the composition  

Submitted

I feel very relaxed listening to this. The strings are so nice. Good job! 

Developer

Great to hear - Thanks for the feedback

Submitted

Very pretty combination of instruments. This almost sounds like it'd be on one of those lo-fi vibes youtube videos to help you to sleep. Nice work!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback - definitely going for a laid back relaxing vibe

Submitted

This is so nice to listen to, I really like the instruments that you used. It definitely gives me that "summer night" vibe and the chord progessions on both of these tracks feel so magical. These are super well made, good job! I just wish you had come up with a game concept that this  music would go to, but other than that they are amazing!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback - So glad you were able to pick up on the vibe I was trying to create - I usually tend to focus on the music but I'll try to give some more explanation to the concept in the future - Thanks again
