the goat returned with more peak.
DISCLAIMER - absolute banger 11/10 would recommend and glaze and the best song in the ost comp jam history and in human history I ascended while listening to it ok that's all
Life With Eyes Closed - classic pix style, immaculate drums, I can't not dance to this banger. Teto carried, and generally the relaxed but at the same time driving style of the melody is very uplifting and acts as a sick opening.
Watch The Time - ear candy with this panned bass synth. The drum pattern seems stuttering a bit and it gives it a laidback style- I KNOW THIS PIZZICATO STRING SOUND DUDE DON'T YOU DARE. And the saxophone is MAJESTIC here. Backup vocals give it even more life than it already has. Damn I should use vocals in the next jam this is so good...
Better You - the panned "OH MY GOD WHYMore hours" in the background sets this vibe of conversations between some random ppl and the whole thing feels very jazzy. The lyrics are pretty good as well, representing Jasper's thoughts really well.
SHUTEYE - sounds much more dreamy because of the pad in the background and major 7ths adding it this feeling of wonder. The drums are a bit less punchy here too, representing a more "flowing" state in the dreams. And the fact that the vocal chop is from "Better You" makes it feel like thoughts about today flow through Jasper's head, abstract and unclear. OH GOD THE BITCRUSH IN THE END AHHHH YESSSSSSSS
MEMORYWORLD - reversed instruments give it ethereal feeling and the whole intro just feels very abstract and flowing compared to other tracks, rgiht before the beat drops and I START DANCING AGAIN HOLY CRAP THIS BEAT IS SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!! The saxophone here brings me back to Watch The Time too.
Awkward Battle - the intro sounds very awkward indeed, I LOVE this characterisation of this battle so much!!!!! And HOLY CRAP WHY IS TETO SPITTING BARS EMINEM'S BEEN REAL QUIET SINCE THIS DROPPED. I like how the track sounds a bit tense WHILE keeping that awkward feel to it, it's just amazing work.
Dirty Mind - ...GET OUT very cool song! Love it! Love it! Love it! I adore it, even! W pix❤️🩹 But honestly the idea of THIS riff playing throughout the song is SO CREATIVE HOLY CRAP. And generally this slow rhythm and the occasinal guitar gives it just the required vibe.
I Love Blackmail!!! - the rhythm in the intro gave me HEAVY flashbacks from the roaring fraud, but as soon as the guitar appeared I knew that peak was coming. And I wasn't wrong - the drop was pretty damn powerful and the constant guitar riff throughout the song IS SO GOOD😭😭😭 Now that's myy style of a song. And the melody is quite versatile too. The part with slower rhythm and more heavy riffs feels SO POWERFUL GOD DAMN. And roaring fraud jumpscare in the end OF COURSE YOU HAD TO. Generally, has more tension than the previous fight, representing that this is a more serious threat to Jasper himself.
Forget It - I love the duality in the sound and a slight bit of desperation here, probably representing how they're desperately trying to remind Ares of good times. And that guitar... I'll be listening to this thing much more than I want to admit.
MINDPOLIZEI - HOLY BIG BAND. Occasional modulation of the key upwards brings it this more present feeling of dread. The synth arpeggios in the middle give it a bit more majestic feeling which fits a boss theme. The reprise of the phrase towards the end packing more tension with the guitars fits the escalation so well and modulations near the end are just a CHERRY ON TOP. Amazing work with different guitars once again I can't comprehend how are you guys even doing that holy crap😭
Shutdown - low piano entrance is an amazing way to represent dread and terror holy crap. And the glitchy sound effects are making this PERFECT for something that must represent a brain shutting down while you're inside of it. Already puts this antagonist as a scary ass threat.
Overall - idk how the HELL did you manage to do so many tracks bro I envy your skills😭 Also, the most creative OST I've heard yet throughout the jam, unsurprisingly, knowing who made it. The idea itself is VERY creative, the tracks themselves are EVEN MORE creative, although still in your general style and the mixing quality is something I never even dream of achieving... You MIGHT be the jam winner this time, BUT HEED MY WORDS, I'LL BE BAaaaaaaaaa-... *flies away team rocket style*
