The Precipice: It's such a small detail but I really love how the bass walks up from the 1 to b3 degree. Very cool track!
Ocean Floor: A variation on the first track! That bass movement I love returns. Love the more chill take on the track.

Description
The Canyons is an exploratory game wherein the player character journeys through their mind each night. Seemingly, their dreams start to be corrupted by an external force and each Brain Biome is affected. The player must then explore each Brain Biome, evading danger and ultimately solving the mystery- what is corrupting my dreams?
"The Precipice" is a trip-hop-inspired electronica track that is made to represent main action sequences. It is the main theme of the game and can be looped. It would play throughout the overworld but especially in the titular Canyon-Brain Biome.
"Ocean Floor" is a flip on "The Precipice." Whereas the precipice is an energetic, driven track, Ocean Floor is a jazzy-ish piece meant to represent a more somber side of the world.
Despite the track being darker, it retains many similarities to The Precipice. Both songs have the same BPM, key, and they share the same bassline. The similarities are meant to remind the player that, despite being in a much darker place than they began, the player is still the same at their core. This song would play in the Ocean-Brain Biome.
