Incredible work, I opened this up and left it playing while checking something and genuinely forgot this was an entry to the jam and not some soundtrack I'd left playing. 

Off the bat, great orchestration and tasteful arrangements. Each element sits so well in the mix and there's a lot of instances of space left between notes to really allow composition to breathe - something I think is missing from a lot of entries, my own included. A lot to be said when it comes to less is more. 

I really like how you've managed to instil such eerie and anxious aspects into some of these; Echoes of Silence is a prime example of this with the shift in string articulations and the ominous droning. This does carry over into Gates of Thalassia which gives me a little bit more of an epic unknown kind of vibe at the beginning. Choice of orchestration throughout this one in particular is gorgeous; soft but meaningful. Progressive but still caught in the moment.

All in all this is a fantastic mix of tracks, all of which could easily fit into a video game without question. Really good job, you've got the chops for underscore for sure. Could see this going deep in the rankings!

Thank you so much for the compliments! Many people hear the tracks, but it’s clear that you really listened to them, and I truly appreciate what you said. This is my first Jam, and I didn’t expect to receive these compliments so soon… I think the best thing you said is about the “less is more” approach because I aimed for that effect, and I’m glad it comes through. Thanks again so much 🥹

Happy to hear that it resonated with you, and I hope that more folk come along and give it a proper listen. For a first-time Jam entry this is fantastic, the effort you put into these is evident in the end product. Looking forward to see what you come up with in the future! Best of luck. :)
