Accidents Happen: This is a perfect introduction to your OST and game’s story. You set up a mood and a motif and then change it to show that the tension is rising as an accident happens. I love the addition of the shattering glass which further helps me “see” your story unfolding in my head as I’m listening.

Dance of Forgetfulness: I like the use of the same motif as the first track. My favorite part of this track is the use of the diminished chords. The groove you set up makes this a good background track to the first level showing us how to play and keeping things relatively straightforward while giving the player a challenge still.

Syncopation Synthesis: Similar to the previous track, I love your harmonic choices and I think the groove helps keep the momentum moving forward, while also keeping things fresh. In particular I love the bass layers you have along with the strong kick drum which feels like it’s pulsing out the seconds.

Echoes of Invention: I like how the beat represents the echoes with two ticks every second. The long droning notes give this piece and room in your game a sense of largeness and expansiveness. The idea of a time echo is so creative!

Pendulum Variations: The pendulum noises you use sound like a heartbeat which is a cool effect. My favorite moment is when you start introducing the new progression with the minor chord at 0:52.

Remember to Reflect: This is really cool coming from the theme before this because it starts out feeling similar, but the tempo is increased and you add in a really funky bassline. This is a great contrast from the droning pedal bass tone in the previous track. I find myself bobbing my head and dancing when your “chorus” comes in. The reverse glass breaking effect at the end and then returning to the main theme is a really cool way to finish the piece!

Overall: You keep a consistent vibe throughout your OST that makes it feel like a complete game and a very natural progression from one room to the next. I think your bass and rhythm section compositional skills stood out the most to me and I had a good time listening to all of these tracks. Great job and thank you for sharing!

I've seen you leaving some pretty exhaustive write ups for many of the submissions. Thank you for taking the time to do so and keep up the great work.

Same to you - thank you for all the detailed comments you have been leaving as well. I think that active listening helps me appreciate others' music the best while also allowing me to learn the most from it. Not to mention, it feels really good as a composer to know that somebody has really been thinking about your music, and I want to help others have that feeling as often as possible!
