- The percussive elements in this submission are quite well executed and add a lot to the story that you are telling. They are at once clear but also extremely present which is something that is not always pulled off very well— the mix never felt muddy to me, while at the same time I definitely felt like their presence. I thought your use of electronic and synth elements was very skillfully executed as well, and in particular I enjoyed how you could seamlessly switch between them, giving the score a very nice feeling of diversity in overall tone and style while still remaining cogent as a broader whole. Definitely a very welcome choice! There are some noisy elements that I thought were sometimes more harmful than helpful in creating an atmosphere— mostly at the start of the tracks, where you are trying to make the best impression. Once those noisier elements— (are they actual sound effects?)— were brought out of the mix, I found myself very much enjoying what you were doing with the music, so it might be worth investigating if you can pull them out (or at least mix them down somewhat). You have a very solid grasp on how to tell a story with your music, as well as how to vary the overall sound palette and musical material in a way that keeps interest throughout. This is a difficult skill for a lot of people (including me!) to learn, and so I was very happy to hear it here. Very good work!
Description
I would say it's mostly Orchestral/Atmospheric! I wanted each track to be attributed to major parts of her journey.
most of this composing was just me learning about sound design and being able to lay down the ideas that were in my head with intent. i believe most of my methodology was trial and error.
I used Ableton for these tracks :)
Message from the artist
Thank you for creating this Jam :)
Theme
Inside my world
How does it fit the theme?
I interpreted the words as literally inside a world, one of the many worlds the adventurer Sofia travels to :p
