(YouTube and Soundcloud have different versions where I didn't forget to edit out the extended silence at the end).

Theme

Inside my world
Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
I attempted to make it as "underwater" as possible (lots of reverb, grand piano, long notes in the melodies), with a melancholy yet hopeful end to represent the mother figure in the picture no longer being there with the little girl; however I imagine the girl is looking through her mother's world to uncover her past and who she is.

I like that you gave it an underwatery sound while also giving it a lot of energy; it gives it a really unique sound, especially with the fast arpeggios and the heavy grand piano. Nice work!

The constant fast notes were really cool and gripping for the whole song. Great Job!

Hola Javi!

2:10 my favorite part. Those arpegios are simply fantastic! The whole track suits very well with the cover art and the story you tell.

Well done!

Of all the works that I have evaluated today, this one has created for me... the most soothing feeling...

this increasing tempo and the addition of instruments and effects is wonderful! I really liked your work! Thanks

P.S. The cover art is beautiful)

That's a great underwater music. I like the mix of synths sounds you used troughout the song. It's nice to hear you took advantage of your musical idea to create a 4 min long track, and it felt interesting at all times while also creating a nice atmosphere.. Great work!

Really nice 'wandering' vibe while still having great structure in the piece.  I love the synths that start halfway through. Good job!

Developer

Thank you!

Very nice production. Wow those plucks around 1:00 are perfect! In fact, all your sound design and arrangement is excellent. I love the wandering arp at around 2:15. The low register piano is a bit too low for the lines that are playing - maybe a synth drone would fit better? Great composition and production that closely fits the theme - great work!

Developer

Thank you for the honest feedback!

Awesome, it shows, that you have put a lot of work into this. It didn't click with me at first, but the synth melody that kicks in at the halfway mark really bring it all together. Nice work!
