These three soundtracks have high-quality instrumentation and mixing, but they sound like they fit the atmosphere of a castle better than a town, and, honestly, it is difficult to imagine an environment with fireflies. They sound more like a castle with majestic royal guards.
Entering the Town: I’m so intrigued by the voices leading into the village. The language doesn’t sound familiar and the march-like quality with low male voices make it sound like a theme for a dwarven town like in Lord of the Rings. My favorite part of this track is the low voice drones and the long string note reverberation at the end.
In the Hall of Lights: This song sounds like a dancehall, but the war-drum-like sound with the blasty french horns gives the track more of a sense of adventure than of dainty-ness that might otherwise accompany a fancy place like the hall of lights.
In the Tree Branches: The choral “aahs” and french horn melody over the horn countermelody feels quite epic and I think would work really well for a quest loading screen or for the part of the town that leads out to adventure.
Overall, these are well-crafted pieces of music that fit well together in the set of 3. The three songs of some great live-sounding reverb to them, though the effect makes it seem like all three songs are meant for indoor themes rather than for a town as a whole. This doesn’t take away from the sound or composition, but it was something that I noticed. Overall great work, especially with the vocal parts, and thank you for sharing!
These fireflies mean bussiness! It gave me more of a castle vibe than a city, but otherwise these are very solid entries. Nice work!
This is great quality! At first I was a bit demotivated because... ugh, another one with 3 songs. But they are short and sweet (not all 3+ minutes), and of great quality! I am still baffled by how great they sound! Unless you tell me how you made the male voices in especially "Arrival" ("Entering the Town") I swear you must have stolen it from a professional movie-soundtrack or something! xD
No, but serious, it is something totally different than any entry so far, going indeed for a more "night-time mood with a mystical/ancient city vibe" which just captures it perfectly. Great job! (and nice art, did you make them yourself?)
Thank you!! I was kinda worried that they sounded a bit too similar but I'm glad that they stood out against each other enough!
Ah! That's a trade secret ;)
Thank you so much! ^^
The art was my idea but I had a friend help with it.
