Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
The primary inspiration for these tracks was the GIF provided as a theme. In particular the retro-looking UI elements at the edges of the screen were an influence on the rough industrial sound throughout both tracks, but especially the second one. The image of the cave also inspired me to make something with a grand and spacious but ultimately kinda desolate and foreboding sound.
The "Two Worlds" word prompt is also somewhat applicable to the second track, which started out a genre fusion between drum'n bass and synthwave of the Perturbator/Carpenter Brut variety (represented by the chaotic breakbeats and distorted bass synth respectively). The noise rock elements kinda break that analogy though. I guess it's more like "Three Worlds".

Wow, Cave Collapse take me by surprise! Cool track.
Woooow, the second track is insanely good! What a feeling, it's a atmospheric as chaotic
Great job!
The atmosphere on these tracks is fantastic, and the two tracks contrast each other really well while still feeling like a coherent whole. I love the Darkwave and DnB elements, they were a fantastic touch.
i love how the second track manages to be ambient and yet tough!
Cave Overview has so much dissonance it's giving the perfect tension made for this theme. I also am in love with the drums you used for Cave Collapse, it reminds me of the intro to 1979 by The Smashing Pumpkins.
Really great atmosphere, and transition from the ambience of the first track into the kicking in of the second. I love the beat combined with the dysphoric feeling sounds. Very nice!
I love Cave Collapse so much, the drum part and all the texture are so creative !! awesome job!
Cave collapse has a cool dark/moody vibe, would go well as a tension track in a game.
