Theme

Squeak (Bird Team)

Correlation to theme
I tried to use magical and whimsical instruments to portray squeaks nerdy and magical appearance as well as using a strange time signature to show their quirkiness. I used darker instruments and some off key notes in the darker part of the song to show that they have a hidden side to them.

I love how you gave Squeak a dark side, your music and the art really sold it! Also really like the first part of the music, it's very charming and reminds me of the Magicka soundtrack. I do think the lighter and darker parts sometimes didn't mesh perfectly, but I think overall you did a great job of depicting Squeak in a very interesting way, completely different from me haha. Thanks for sharing!

I did enjoy both parts of the song but I think it lacks a connection between both of them, like they both feel like separate songs. But other than that you did a very good job in making your track, I liked the first part the most!

I love when a song breaks expectations in the middle of it. I really, really like the basslines, and fits the theme super good. Amazing job!

I like that you portrayed two different sides of Squeak, like there is a devious or mysterious side that comes out occasionally. Both themes are fitting for the character and do a great job helping give us the full picture of who the character is. This is one of the few stair challenge tracks that uses single bars of 4/4, 5/4, then 6/4 immediately in sequence and I think that this is the best interpretation of that challenge and it’s very well made! I’m glad you joined and decided to be on Team Bird! Great work and thank you for sharing!

Normally I'm not a big fan of slower or less involved tracks but there's like an indescribable charm that I sometimes feel with tracks and this one had it. Specifically in the lower parts.

I think the song could stand to be denser since it can feel empty at times which is something that comes with more practice I think. 

Good work though since I can tell this is a strong foundation!
