Description
A melodic ambient track with a little bit of storytelling.
It contains three main sections:
● The first section is the introduction to the secret lake area in a game, with the two drones and piano.
● The second section is the moment you enter the lake and start exploring the area and its lore. This part has a cello melody that serves as the main motif for the area. It's a little bit sad, and in some parts, unsettling and mysterious.
● The last section is the full orchestra playing together, with the sounds of the environment around you playing alongside it. This part in particular could be used for the final section of the area, or the moment when the secret is unraveled.
Thanks for listening!

I love that chord change around 1:10-1:15 or so.

I think some of the sounds are still a little overly midi in their delivery, but it's not a big issue. I think the mix could also be a bit more dynamic.

Composition is the strong suit here for sure. I really liked it.

I think your mix is too dry. 

Very solid work! :)

Nicely done, there was some very  cool unexpected chords here and there, its always a pleasure to be surprised by something that is unpredictable. The build up is also well made with the transitions, I didn't read the description at first I went RAW, I could feel the change but would not now it was actual different section still felt part as a whole which is a good thing. Good job :) 

Developer

Thank you I really appreciate the feedback.

I'm really happy that the transitions turned out to be good, It was a little bit tricky even with the same chord progression to make sure everything is intact without any sudden changes that feels out of place.

This is a wonderful piece. Excelent build-up, balanced and well mixed.
I can see this playing as a BGM in a game like blasphemous. I wish each section was a little longer to explore each mood more deeply, I think the music stays too long in the same chord progression, but other than that, great composition. Keep up the good work.


Developer

Thanks for the feedback. 

I kept the chord progression mostly unchanged to focus more on the ambience and melody, ensuring it will not be distracting in the background.

 Additionally, you can use the stems to create a loop or arrange specific parts in designated areas.

I like that this is an interesting Orchstral-Ambient-type Soundtrack... It sounds interesting since it can sound calm at some parts, but then can sound intense in other parts. Very interesting!

Developer

Thank you so much for the feeding 

I was going for a track that can be used in several ways, and i get some inspiration from Hollow knight soundtracks.

Makes sense for the Soundtrack to sound like it did, then. You're welcome for the Feedback!
