I enjoyed listening to your work, and I think you really nailed the sound you were going for! I liked Møstrom, Frozen Ruins of Tomorrow because you achieve this big, spacious vibe by arpeggiating that lead in the space between the sparse drum hits. As I relistened to the soundtrack, I felt that Lost in Time became my favorite track. I enjoyed your use of mixed meter, the drum pattern, and your arrangement (dropping drums out, using higher registers, then bringing drums back). Maybe it’s my preference, but I’d consider looking into how the bass is mixed—it’s the right sound choice, but something feels off to me about either the level, frequency, or stereo spread. Your game concept is cool, and your tracks are effective at conveying the intended atmosphere, so good job on this project!

thx a lot for stopping by. its my first time making music that sounds cold, lost, and futuristic at the same time, as well with interpreting the theme(i really have a hard time with this, it always feel like im going off topic but im glad i stick with this til the end).
Lost in Time is my best attempt at weird time sig switching, from 15/8 to 11/4(basically 6/4+5/4 if that's even making sense, idk what the time sig is until i open fl studio😭) then 3/4 at the bell melody for the rest of the track.
i feel like the bass isnt... uh... bassy enough? maybe i had too much OTT but i really tried to avoid the same mistake i had with my previous projects where there's not enough high frq for it, which is strange because bass should only have low frq but i was wrong ¯\¯\_(ツ)_/¯.
glad you enjoyed it
