Description
For Abyssal Ruins, I tried to lean heavily into the theme of the jam, and tried to give the track a dream-like feeling, using lots of synth elements alongside orchestral instruments. With Relic Castle, I took a more "traditional" approach, putting more focus on recreating the original feel of the track, while also putting my own spin on it using orchestral samples, while still using some synthesised elements to tie it to the first track. I would have liked to have given the tracks more mixing time, but I'm very happy with how they both came out.
