Wow, these tracks were so powerful! What skill you have here. Goodness! I really enjoyed it. You have great dynamics, range and skill of the instruments, and a powerful vision of theme here. Wonderful. I am just blown away by these tracks. I can't really add any feedback but that! Although, those jungle like noises at the end of the first track sounded a bit odd and out of place. Wonderful submission here!
The Journey: The spacey/staticky pads, brass pads, bass pulse, and reverby piano work exceptionally well together for a space-like atmosphere. I imagine this track accompanying scenes from movies like Interstellar very nicely. The harmony certainly gives the sense of venturing into the unknown and has a clear forward motion to it which accompanies the aptly named title well. It makes me wonder what the main characters are thinking while they are on this journey.
The Discovery: I wish I could watch the scene that you are imagining with the beginning of this piece! It feels like it was scored to a cinematic/cut-scene. The more rhythmic section feels really creative and adds an industrial feeling to the openness of the space-like instrumentation you use alongside it. I love the use of choirs at the very end and wished I could have heard more than that! Though I suppose it is supposed to represent the resolution of discovery and makes sense that it is only at the end.
These tracks provide a nice diad to represent an adventure into space and then finding something special. I think they are really well-crafted and are very pleasant to listen to, while both still having their own identities. Great work overall and thank you for sharing!
I rlly enjoyed Journey. Super cinematic. That rolling bass and splashy synth are very good selection/ sound design. The sound selection as a whole and mixing is very nice. Taking a guess its valhalla supermassive? The tails at 2:40 sound super familiar.
In The Discovery, I needa point out the transition thing u got going on at 1:18 seems really... lacking. Seems like theres gonna be some kind of change but it just goes right back. I rlly like the chord progression on this one though, and the percussion too.
Thanks for the review on my tracks Cowchy. I was kinda short on time and don't think I'll have any chance to get more ideas to continue those two tracks so... might as well send em' so it sees the light of day rather than being stuck there in the "unfinished" folder. I'm making a small music project based on space stuff since I got inspired from No Man Sky's music 😁
Haha Yeah I feel that man. rlly gotta get it out there before you leave it to catch dust haha. Plus you got a lot of skill man, def deserves to be out here in this jam!
