Description
The soundtrack has an ambient underwater inspired theme. I used garageband for the tracks I created.

Within the games concept, you would be playing as a diver on a mission to explore undiscovered areas within the ocean. During this, you would be tasked with finding and researching various sea creatures. Some would be as simple as strange looking fish, while others would pose a genuine threat.

'Submerged' is a track that would play whilst exploring as a background OST.

'Undiscovered Terrain' would play after stumbling across a creature which could pose a minor threat towards the player.

More tracks were planned but sadly I didn't have enough time to finish them.

Message from the artist
Sorry for the lack of tracks, I've been busy lately.

To everyone who's decided to check out my tracks, I greatly appreciate you!!

Theme

Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
I took inspiration from the underwater theme present within the picture to create the feel of an underwater environment. I had a concept for an underwater exploration game which would be themed around capturing and discovering numerous sea creatures.

There is a lovely ambient feel here and there is great shape to each of the tracks. Think about how you could add more subtle instrumental/synth textures and also slight variations to some of the looping patterns, as this would add more development to your ideas. Nice work!

Thanks!

I liked the way the synths clicked when each note hit it was a cool effect!

Developer

Thank you!!

These tracks set the mood well. Good instrument choices and effects. My only suggestion would be to add more variety in the compositions to maintain interest. The feel is spot on though and would work well in a game. Thanks for making and sharing!

Developer

Thanks for the feedback I really do appreciate it!!

Doing this all on garageband mobile is incredibly impressive. "Undiscovered Terrain" was a bop!

Some of the levels of certain instruments seem a little off, but not enough to distract from the music.

Great job!

Beautiful OST! Very relaxing. Reverb goes perfect with the cover picture and concept in Submerged.  And to add a little more flavor, we've got the mysterious arpeggios of Undiscovered Terrain. Nice color palette.

I really like and enjoyed your work. Well done!

Nice tracks! I like how you use the synths to convey an underwater atmosphere. I definitely prefer "Undiscovered Terrain" because there's more harmony supporting the melody. Good job!

Developer

Thank you!! I really appreciate the feedback!!

These are pretty great! I think Undiscovered Terrain is my favorite of the two but they're both put together really well. Good choice of instruments - super mellow. Makes for very easy listening which is perfect for underscore in games. Great use of effects as well, I'm hearing just enough reverb to add a nice moody layer without drowning out everything else in the mix. Super chill vibes, great work!
