Really like the dark atmosphere and the idea, who knew you could do all of this with a guitar? Great Job ✨

I like that of all the publications of this jam, this one is one of the most... musical! No kidding: personally, I think that you were perfectly able to combine the ambient, the elements of noise (and noise that is approaching the listener as if gradually becoming heavier) with notes, a gust of sensitive industrial noise that seems to breathe. So this noise also creates a RHYTHM in some way!), and with that, you've added some musicality! I like that gradually a gust of wind is surrounded by the sounds of guitars and overloaded synthesizers, which seem to be "talking" to each other, creating a dialogue similar to the element of the post-climax of some musical piece, where the broken main characters try to communicate with each other - but they only manage to give each other fleeting glimpses. phrases, fragments of emotions that eventually gradually become less like words and meaningful phrases. — and more about the endless sadness, which is gradually being covered by an endless veil of victorious detachment, frustration and, eventually, death.…
That was my vision for your track XD
I liked it! Definitely one of the most "solid" works that appeared on this jam!
Good job! Thanks!
Rawr :3
Thank you so much for the elaborate comment, I really appreciate it! :D
You definitely got a lot of what I was going for, so I was really happy to see that ^^
At first I was trying to go for something purely abstract and atonal, but I didn't like anything I came up with so I allowed myself to add a little bit of musicality into it and then I liked it way more.
Thanks again for the kind words!!
Also just a fun detail, all the sound was actually made with an electric guitar run through some pedals and an amplifier, no synths or digital effects used at all :D
