This is a really nice LoFi track, and I like the idea of this being a nice credits theme.
I wish you would have developed this a bit more - maybe a melody, maybe a bit of a variation on the chords, or applying an effect for a bit and then going back to the original sound.
The production is really nice, and I could definitely imagine myself just sitting and listening to this while my thoughts run wild...
Very nice!
thank you so much! <3 I’ll def take the melody and so on into consideration, much love and thank you for all the kind words!
The panning on the synths was really pleasing to the ear in this one!
thank you so much! It was really fun to work on! <3
Very atmospheric. Great work!
thank you so much! <3
It's a nice chill atmosphere here.
I think I would try to not only have the same background sound. When I started making music, I definitely kind of fell into the trap of making ambient music that's a bit repetitive. One thing that pops out to me that I would want to add here is something like stop that part and then do something where you just have this very subtle soft drone, and continue the melody over that soft drone.
It's a way to add variety to ambient tracks that doesn't end up making it too thematic. I know when I was getting into composing for the first time, the Skyrim soundtrack I found to be just such an excellent example of fairly simple, but beautiful and varied ambient music. Listening to it helped me get a better grasp when people told me my stuff was too repetitive .
Anyways, well done, I'm looking forward to seeing more! :)
thank you for the feedback, that’s honestly really awesome advice. Glad you enjoyed what you heard tysm <3
I love the ambience that this track creates, especially once the drums come in. It almost has adult swim bumper energy lol. I would've loved to hear some variation as well, but as it stands this is pretty cool :)
tysm I will def take what you said into consideration! Much appreciated and glad you enjoyed <3
I really liked how the instruments panned from side to side giving a swaying in the wind feel. I do think however that it got really repetitive and could desperately use a stand out instrument. Something that would tie the entire song together.
for sure for sure, I agree on the repetitive aspect, I will take what you said into consideration and appreciate your comment, much love <3
Reminds me a lot of Adventure Time, good memories:) I think that you could have added a lead line on top to add some flavor, if you wanted to, the chords are pretty funky so you could do a lot with them as far as melody writing goes and have a lot of fun
I LOOOOVE adventure time that’s a huge compliment! I also really appreciate the advice and will take it into consideration, much love and thank you for your comment <3
