This song is so amazing and gives me serious travel vibes (geometry dash talk) and I would love to use it in a travel level (and 8 minute level) but it's only 4. I know this is much to ask but could you maybe make a song that's just this twice in a row so I can make a 8 minute art level. Thank you for reading this. 5/5 song!
MAN! I love this song, all this energy, I feel like in a medieval adventure. Really neat, best of luck in Round 3!
thanks mang, and same to you!! =]
xtrullor shouldve won tho
ssh bb is ok
I like the tranquil vibe at the beginning. Tiny detail: when the harp cuts off at :09 it disrupted the flow a bit. I like the cute instruments and harmonies. I think the bass is actually a bit too loud this time - sorry for the complete 180. The piano melodies at :40 are cute too. The texture breaks down a little quickly at :49, but I like the structural relief that :53 offers, and the percussion at 1:12 is a nice touch. The riser at 2:01 didn’t quite fit the character of the piece IMO, but that’s another small detail. The transition at 2:11 could’ve been smoother, too, and then the mood goes through another sudden shift at 2:17 - all of a sudden it’s got this tranquil, funky vibe that heavily contrasts the bouncy energy of most of the rest of the piece. Not that thematic contrast is a bad thing - I just think you could’ve connected the two a little better. 3:34 is another example of a time when the reverb and crash combo doesn’t quite cut it as a transition. I know I’ve nitpicked a lot in this review, but overall the sound design, atmosphere, and mood are really quite strong. The mastering is also strong, but you may have gone a little overboard with the reverb. Still, the cutesy melodic content and instruments really hit this piece home. It’s a fun piece. Keep it up, guys! ;)
9/10
thanks TL! it will indeed be kept up, at least for another round! :o
