Lol did you mean the image of the like 300 plus tracks?

Excellent excellent excellent... This is so so so good, man. Your balance of the dynamics of the sounds, the subtlety of the percussion and hidden instruments are masterful. I believe we may share the philosophy that the beauty comes from what isn't heard.

Haha I am super glad you recognized my progressive influence- I listen to a lot of progressive metal and jazz. Tesseract and Periphery are huge influences for me funnily enough considering the overall happy mood.

I've been informed by my lawyer that I am not liable for any damages, injuries, deaths, or conditions inflicted by my subliminal whale noises.
with that being said- I didn't have access to an ocean for the music video unfortunately. I made the whole video with my wife 7 hours before the deadline haha! But that is a good point. Thank you for your kind words!!!

I definitely felt like I got away from the theme at times, but I tried roping myself back in often enough to get myself back on track- but at the end of the day, if you're flowing and you have a certain direction, then that matters more than the theme. I don't think for a second you should ever remove what you've done because it doesn't fit the theme- but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't guide yourself in the right direction every once in a while! Additionally- something you have to consider, my interpretation of the theme is likely different from yours. If you read my post you'd see that I saw my daughter and my wife in that painting, which gave my music a certain element of emotion that no other piece had. I'm sure you saw something in the theme that you may have connected with, consciously or not, that makes your music uniquely you! Great job :) and you're welcome!!!

I'm assuming those sounds you're talking about are those super subtle sounds that sound like whales? I'm very glad you noticed them, I tried to bury them to the point where they were almost subconscious . As for the instrument? I'm certain you've heard the instrument, it's called whistling!!! hahaha!!!!

I absolutely love the cute and bubbly feel to this song ! It has a strong sense of adventure and wonder to it- Great job !!!

As everyone else who has commented stated, Sea Frog is by far the best song I have heard from this music jam !!! It gave me a very mobster esque feeling to it and felt very jazzy and spicy. My wife, dog and I were having a blast listening and dancing to it !! Awesome job !

Clicked on your twitter and lost my whole comment :(

Long story short, your music reminds me of early 2000's  zombie movies like Shaun/Dawn of the Dead.
Super spooky, you did a fantastic job!!!

All I have to say is that I am very impressed with all 3 of the tracks you have created. It definitely gave an underwater aquatic feel and vibe to it, as well as a triumphant and laidback feel. I also love how it felt jazzy at time as well, especially in  Isometro Floatine. Also- I loved the YT video of it ! Great job !!

The length of the track is not only highly impressive, but very well executed ! This song mostly gives me a feeling of curiosity and wonder, mixed with compassion at the end. The tone is very soothing and at some parts a bit ominous. I love how it made me feel as if I were floating underwater while looking for something, only to find it towards the end and make it back to the shore- Overall, this was an amazing piece to listen to and you have done a wonderful job at capturing the theme of this jam !! 

great job with the ocean vibe! You managed to make two unique songs sound coherent in a central theme, while still making them both sound original in their own way. I loved the high energy of the second piece too- I see why you called it the Dance of the Sea!

Woohoo!!! The first track is super fun to listen to- but definitely starts off WAY too quiet. I'm sure you were going for a very dynamic piece, but I think you may have gone a little too far with the quietness of the first bit. But I loved the first track!! My dog was dancing to it the whole time!

Just played the second track, my dog started dancing even harder... please make it stop...

I'm on the third track now and my dog has begun to ascend to the groovy realm- I would be mad at you, but she looks so happy just dancing her way up there... I've... I've never seen her so happy...

Thank you, Mr. Me256 for sending my doggie to the groovy realm... May she boogie till the end of time...

You did a wonderful job, all of your songs were super memorable and fun to listen to, definitely one of the better submissions I've listened to so far :)))

Wonderful sound effects on the first track. It definitely gives me a good mystical ocean-y feeling. The percussion on the first track is super cool sounding, reminds me a little bit of some of the more percussion centered Halo (Marty O'D) tracks. The piano arpeggio through all of it was also really cool!

The second track was very different from the first, and the Vocals were a really pleasant surprise - were they actually recorded?

unfortunately, I couldn't download the third track for some reason, but I very much enjoyed 1 and 2!!!

I love the combination of the instruments with the main flute melody!!! As others said- at times the mix can get a little messy, but overall it is a very friendly and whimsical sounding song, with some equally intense and dramatic sections, especially the awesome climax at the end :)))
Very good job, I loved the reliance on orchestral instruments. My wife described the ending as very triumphant- like Beethoven - so you definitely did something right!!!

Very ambient sounding, Sometimes I think the pads are a little overwhelming in the mix, but it also gives me the feeling of being submerged, unable to really hear much of the fine details- save for the occasional underwater clicks and melodies of distant creatures. You fit the theme very well. Some times the melodies feel a little off kilter, too- which is likely intentional, but sometimes sounds just a little strange. I love the dissonance in the track, especially near the end, you really sell the ambient nature of the ocean!!! Great great job :))

I'm glad you thought so- thank you :)))

Woohoo!!! Couldn't ask for a better review :)

Very impressive! I can't believe you managed to compose over 30 minutes of detailed music within the time span. Altogether you had some very cool pieces with a lot of variety, and I appreciate that you kept referring to the main theme throughout the compositions. You definitely did a fantastic job with these compositions. The more high intensity tracks were an absolute pleasure to listen to. Everything had a very coherent feeling to it, though I will say I didn't exactly see how it fit the theme- but the theme is also very subjective, so you likely saw it in a different way. Very very well done, I am very impressed with the volume of music you've produced.

You did a wonderful job with the dynamics of this composition! The build up was very gradual and natural, it felt very smooth to listen to.  It seems like a very emotionally driven piece, which I think is a very good thing!!

I love your use of synths in an orchestral fashion. It reminds me of some of the music I used to make when I was first getting into FL studio- very grand and free. You fit the theme very well- and I definitely got the vibe that you were going for- however, I think in your pursuit to tie the tracks together into a coherent package, they did end up sounding a little similar to each other in form. I think you may have benefited from combining these tracks into one and blending between them naturally rather than separating it into four tracks. I very much enjoyed it though, you did a really great job!!!

have you recovered yet?

Wonderful tracks- I am also appreciative of the Bear/Chicken warnings. I made to fully equip myself before listening to "Bear with me." Even with a full set of medieval plate armor I was still taken aback by the music. It was very silly- I love the percussion, but I will say that neither bear with me or chicken fight really resembled the theme to me. Like a bubble did resemble much better though, so that's good. If you plan on doing more jams like this one I would recommend trying to hunker down on those tracks that intentionally latch onto the themes presented for the Jam.

Of all of your tracks, my favorite was Like a Bubble. All of your tracks were very whimsical and fun to listen to! Great job!!!

Thank you so much for referring to it as contemporary classical- you don't know how much that means to me. I try not to label my music as classical because I feel like I would be disrespecting the name of it by doing so. I don't know if that's unproductive, I just never thought my music would be considered worthy of that title.

Your comment is extremely valuable to me, I appreciate it so much, it truly means a lot.

I listened to this while doing some level design, and I would definitely say it had it's effect!! This was a nice little listen!

Woohoo!!! YOU ARE THE SILLY!!!!

You certainly know how to compose! I liked all three of your tracks, especially the first one!!!

I just listened to Monster Bubble, I hadn't listened to that one yet. Definitely the best one of the track, the break beat was hilarious with the chiptune music, sounded really intense and fun

Super silly sounding, sounds like something I'd go blind to looking at an old CRT past my bedtime. You fit the theme very well while still keeping a very unique sound to it! Very cohesive, fun to listen to, and I liked the recurring theme (even though it was a really silly melody)

As others said- the clipping was pretty bad at times- but I had the same exact issue when I was starting to make music with FL.  Even now I'm not great at managing my levels and mixing and all that. The music gave a very relaxing ocean adventure vibe that you definitely sold well! Great job. From now on, focus on the bar that tells you how loud that is, and never let it hit the ceiling!! You did awesome!

very pretty! Your composition fit the theme better than any other song I've heard before. I listened to it with my dog and it put her to sleep, haha. I very much enjoyed it, and it's excellent that youre getting into this at such a young age. If you haven't already, I would seek out some classical music and really absorb it as much as possible. I wish I had an appreciation for classical music earlier in life. Your piece is definitely one of the better ones I've heard so far!

Your words are warm in my heart. Thank you so much for saying all of this :)

Awesome!!! Best one I've listened to yet. My only complaint is I think the ascending synth comes in a little too loud, in my opinion kind of taking away from the subtlety of the piece. Despite this, I imagined the young girl taking her bubble momma by the hand and glide through the ocean seeing all there is to see. One of my favorites so far :)

i like the chill ocean vibe the music sells for the most part. The second song might not fit, but it does sound cool, especially as a sort of boss battle.

uhhhhhh....... it was....... audible..?

pretty music! Definitely sounds like some anime music. I would recommend trying to vary the velocity of the notes do they aren't all the same intensity. Because of this the song felt a lot more flat that it could have, especially with some of your pretty chord progressions. Altogether I think you did a great job with a simple idea, and expanded on it very well.

Your piece definitely picked up in the second half! The first bit had some questionable melodies, but once that big change came up it picked up into a nice flow with those nice flowing notes.

awesome job!! I like that you stuck to a congruent theme and varied on it throughout the different songs. I will say I didn't see or hear it's correlation to the theme- but that could just be becausee I had a pretty different vision for what the theme portrayed. Altogether, this was a really fun thing to listen to!!!
