Oh wow, this is incredible work. In regards to your comment on mine, I think you did extremely well considering the challenges! I particularly love your haiku and Ghost of Tsushima/Yotei inspirations. I also really enjoyed your use of the traditional Japanese instruments, something that I just couldn't have gone without in regards to this artwork/theme. It's very cool to see your intention behind each track and plugins involved. When I have time I will watch the full creation video. Thank you for sharing your work!

Really nice work! I was curious if someone would try to apply something subtly rhythmic to this artwork and theme as I just couldn't imagine it yet. It seems you were able to and I dig it! There was a moment earlier in the track, starting around :35 where the paddles are a bit loud in the mix. Other than that I enjoyed it very much.

This is excellent, I think it fits the theme perfectly and as someone mentioned below, can't get more ambient than this. Personally in regards to this jam and theme, I would love to hear some random shakuhachi phrases sprinkled in on just one song but that is just me and doesn't take away from your rating or work at all! Great!

Oooh I love the Ondes Martenot but was not aware of the Mixtur-Trautonium. I did not use those however I can hear how those might be heard in the drones. I used Pigments from Arturia for the drones, selecting some presets and then tinkering around with them until finding the feeling I was looking for. Thanks for your comment, it was a fun experience overall!

Thank you for your comment and glad you liked it! I definitely wanted to revisit the melody and pare it back but it had already taken so much time to get to that point that I needed to polish and submit it. Attempting this ambient track was really eye opening for me as I already prefer to play slowly and chill but ambient requests much more space than I'm familiar with. I feel like I learned alot from these parameters.

I agree with you about the difficulty of the modes, it took me quite a bit to feel them out and even then playing on the koto and shakuhachi were an added challenge as well because I have never played them before and the tones are very unique. Thank you for your comment and glad you enjoyed it!
