Description
I imagined the game this is a soundtrack for as an indie platformer where you're jumping around the characters dream world. The genre I was going for was ambient electronic. Each Track is as follows:
1 - Title Theme
2- Opening Cutscene
3 - Pause Menu
4 - Gameplay
5 - Ending/Credits

I composed the OST in FLStudio. My process for each track was starting with one instrument that I thought would set the mood of the whole song and then building the rest of the instruments around that.

Theme

Inside my world
Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
The picture and text both inspired the theme and gameplay in my mind, where the text describes being inside a character's dreams and the picture inspired what that might look like

Overall, it's a sweet and mostly relaxing ambient... I liked it!

P.S. Why did the beginning in PowerNap remind me of Lucy in the sky with diamonds?

I love the character you have in the cover art!

Everything was super quiet so increasing the volume would be a good idea.

I really liked the popping percussion you used in LazySunday it fit the theming quite well!

Really soft and delicate production on this! Lovely set of ambient tracks with a few darker moments brought in my your harmonic choices, very nice 👌

The tracklist had a nice overall theme but I really liked how RevUpYourRem (or, as I call it, ruyr) stood apart with a really interesting and unique sound!

Really enjoyable overall and Melatonin is special! I wish it was a bit louder to kind of conform to general volume of music, but otherwise super great entry! Followed, hope to hear more from you!

Great work with these - a fun selection of tracks. I think you captured the vibes in Lazy Sunday really well - it plods along unapologetically and has just enough of a playful lilt to it. Melatonin was a great intro track for this collection - sets up expectations in regards to choice of instruments and tone, and eases the listener in. Good work. :)

Some of the tracks are very atmospheric! Good job!
