This has bullet hell written all over it. I love the melody in #2. You did a great job with these.

Sounds amazing! I think these are composed excellently going forwards and backwards. The instruments fit nicely together. I really like that bit of space you give with the synth chords in the first track too! This was a nice listen!

 I am also reminded by something with your tracks, but I can't exactly remember what, are they inspired by anything?

if you’ve ever played Super Stardust HD on the PS3, that’s part of where I got my inspiration from! Brian and Okuba also put their spins on composing and producing too :)

Ohh, I have never played it but I think I have seen something very similar on the psp (maybe it is the same creators, I'm unsure). I will definitely check out the soundtrack though cause it was really nice listening to your submission!

Deified Tenet 1: Very cool rhythm and progression. Loved the reverse sections.

Deified Tenet 2:  So much energy. Again like the reverse elements. Cool drums.

Nice work!

Really cool! The choice of sythns were great and the chord progression in the first track was awesome! I loved when it started reversing also! Both tracks feel like they would fit in a game perfectly! Very nicely done!

I love the synth with it's melody. Very haunting but high energy.  The drum breaks sounded sweet in reverse. Great job!

The reversed audio was very well done here! The percussion was super lively and invigorating!

The synths were super nice and I like how they would come in off beat sometimes since it gave it an unnerving feeling!

really really great entry!

Thanks Jofes! I enjoyed listening to your soundtrack a lot :D

The reversed drum breaks and choirs fit really well with the boss fight vibe, I was jamming in my seat the whole time! It sounds a lot like it's "rewinding," I can almost imagine a game where you go back in time mid-battle and the music reverses dynamically. Great stuff!

Thanks yomgo!! I'm excited to post a comment on yours :)
