Those ambient textures on the first piece are really cool, I frankly feel jealous as hell that I didn't think to do that. Can I ask what methods you used to get those specific textures?

That aside, I liked the organs on the second track, but it felt like the frequency buildup in the low mids was really aggressive, just a quick reduction of a couple db in like the 80-140hz range (I did a quick and dirty check and that seemed to feel about right maybe?). Also you might get some decent results by carving out some space somewhere in the spectrum for the piano to come out more, and might get really nice results by putting a super subtle chorus on the organ, because rn it feels kind of mono. Take these suggestions with a huge grain of salt, bc I kind of mix to my own tastes and don't use organ super often, so these suggestions may or may not be something you want in your mix.

Also, whatever programming you did for those strings in the third piece sounds great, super killing it. The piano sounds great as well, the composition as a whole feels super emotive and I really like it.

I hope I didn't come off as negative at all, it just takes a lot of words to describe this mix stuff and way less to say that what you made sounds super beautiful and I really enjoyed it!

i would like to say i did some crazy complicated technique for the texture but i just used a mixture of some pads/synths from spitfire LABS :') i believe the primary one that gives it some texture is the "arctic swells" plugin pack-- it uses a blend of violin and a native american flute. 

thank you for the feedback on the organ piece! it's def the track that i regret the most in regards to its lack of polishing. i kept trying to balance things in a way that sounded good but alas i am an amateur and didn't have enough time :( i honestly was struggling for most of the jam just to even write the actual song, so proper mixing was really far off for me. its something i genuinely don't know much about and am hoping to learn a little bit more about, at least at a rudimentary level so i can do better in the next jam :) 

i honestly really appreciate constructive criticism because 1. it shows you actually did listen to my pieces and formed your own thoughts about it 2. criticism is just as, if not more valuable than compliments in helping me refine my techniques as a composer <3
