i like it, very pretty and sweeping, reminds me of the dragon quest ds game that i was terrible at as a kid. my kitten walked up and hit the mute button while i was listening but just ignore her she sucks. good job!

starts off decent and then track 2 starts up. damn!! wow!!! my only note is the phrasing could be tightened up a little bit, and i wanted more from the horn at 00:40 than just one note, because it sounded so cool. i kept aching for a little boozy louis armstrong style melody. the strings and piano are so so good. track 3 just rules, and all of these songs show off such a wide range while never sounding out of place. very impressive and surprising.
i love the pretty ambience of the opening with the menace slowly seeping through. track 2 is just moody and cool as hell. love those distant evil synths in "poor customer service" backing the melancholy groove
throughout the whole ost you have these moody dark chords and textures but it never loses the fun, propulsive energy or the sense of playfulness. this is so good.
i think the phrasing of the melodies could be tightened up, but they go in a cool direction. and the chords are awesome. the piano and synths in the second track are really kind of beautiful in a menacing way and it all has such a restless, crazed, anxious vibe that's so engaging. both songs are constantly morphing, slowly changing shape and exploring new feelings, which makes sense for a bunch of microorganisms using frantic music to make a statement about themselves. love the audience sounds, and how they start clapping along. really interesting stuff.
all the instruments sound really great, i think the woodwind at the beginning of the first song sounds a little bit abrupt, like it could be softer or fade out more.
the first 2 tracks are okay but it really starts to get good with track 3. the best bit is "in ancient ruins" from 0:30 on. the chord changes and melodies are so good, and it ends perfectly with the vocal chorus. "a legendary song" follows it so well. this is really good stuff. both you guys are working in the same sort of style but you go about it in subtly different ways that are interesting. gabu's tracks are a little more foreboding and forceful. shellotz's stuff is melancholy and wistful, and you have those cool twinkling piano parts
nice job you guys
wow i loved this. it's constantly shifting and throwing some weird musical curveball while somehow making it seem like the most natural thing to do. this thing put me in my place and patted me on my head and then crushed it like a grape. all of it is so good, front to back is my favorite but im worried if you played it to an alien it'd get startled around the 1:30 mark and do something horrific
please play this live sometime
i love in "who were they" how the woodwinds and the vocals sound comforting and inviting while the strings and chords (don't know the instrument sorry) sound like they're trying to ward you off.
the whole ost is gorgeous, emotionally stirring and exquisitely put together. thank you for momentarily calming my brain zaps.
i love the mix of acoustic instruments and synths, and the melancholy chord progressions! my only real complaint is that it sounds maybe a little too clean and digital for all the acoustic instruments used (i have the same problem when i use piano so i shouldn't even be talking). track 6 (final stage) just rocks, GREAT chord changes and drum sounds. good stuff man
this is just funky as hell. great basslines, great percussion, amazing, AMAZING synth textures, pretty chords, loved all the vocal samples. the vocal on golden years was a little too dissonant for me, but the voice itself is great (is that you singing?) and the dissonance everywhere else sounded cool. this is made to be played LOUD in headphones.
