Fernweh: I am always so impressed with your ability to set the scene using very creative and new strategies that feel really fresh, all while allowing it to feel really organic. I’ve never heard desert music sound like this, though at the same time it is so clear where we are when I’m listening to this. I particularly love the bells and plucked instruments at the beginning.
Ninshat: Pitching the wind to be a musical element is such a fantastically creative idea! The highlight of this track for me was the subtle flute-like trills that pop up spontaneously throughout. That was like fairy dust on an otherwise very magical sounding piece.
Shuougaïm: I have only listened to a handful of soundtracks at this point, but I would argue this is possibly the most creative track in the entire competition. The lowest pitched vocal effects alongside the low frame drums is such a cool effect.
Anavrin: This is a really wonderful cap to your OST. The oasis seems clearly in view at the 2-minute mark and the melody is fresh and infectious. Oh and that chord turn at just before the 3 minute mark was like pure nectar! Your guitar playing and singing is phenomenal, though I think the composition of this piece was the most masterful part in my mind.
I suppose that I have listened to enough of your music that I should know to expect something so imaginative, creative, and unique every time, but I still am always blown away by what you deliver. My overall impression is that you CREATED a world solely with your music. This is no emulation of other types of music (that I know of at least) and the result is a stunning and intriguing soundtrack that deserves to be part of the core identity of an actual game. Very excellent work on this OST. Thank you for sharing your music!
