I like that you introduced the synth in the first song as a way to tie it to the story of a peaceful world getting changed by technology.
I think the second song having more of that tech angle with a singular lute playing was a good choice. It gets dissonant which is fitting, but the hard, fast drums feel like it clashes somewhat too much with the really simple other instruments. I think they would have benefited from an additional song that really delved into the dystopia of it. Something that includes those fast drums but with a fast lyre melody to show how people were forced to change and adapt to the new world.
