Great track! I felt it was perhaps a bit overdrawn near the end/carried on for perhaps a bit too long considering the repetitive nature. Regardless it was still rather well crafted and addicting to listen to.

Around the 0:46 mark it actually reminded me of the original Spyro the Dragon OST on the PS1 which I absolutely love! :D

Baumarius responds:

Yay, thanks!

It used to be 30 seconds shorter, but I've listened it so many times that I just wanted more song lol

WOW! Given the description this piece is very solid! Writing 4 1-2 minute pieces in a day sounds crazy! Basically just taking a basic idea and just going with it. Excited to collab with you when you have the chance. ;D

Thanks! It is crazy, writing at this speed is the antithesis of how I work and I'm struggling to keep energy up with each new piece haha. Basic ideas for sure are the way to go (at least for now) to avoid using up every idea in a single track. The orchestra got pushed back on a bit so the rest of things have gotten a bit more hybrid-sounding.

I'm super excited to collaborate as well! Working on clearing some space for it this week!

Fantastic! I love the mix of minute dissonance in the piano chords with the solo oboe and pitched percussion in the background. That kind of orchestration/ensemble reminds me of the original Ori game music. There's also a subtle climax in the middle with the oboe solo; I especially like the feeling of coldness that the string arrangement gives with such a wide gap between the violins and double basses.

Overall, I think this would work as excellent game music! Excited to see what your next assignments or personal stuff sounds like! :D

Deemo-R responds:

Hey man, good to see you still around! I definitely feel like I lifted a light tuft of Ori ideas with this one - I just finished Will of the Wisps last month and went to a virtual event Gareth Coker did with Guy Whitmore on the music and audio implementation for that game, so it was fresh in my mind. I'm glad you like how the track sounds! I do love how subtle string textures can really change the whole vibe of any orchestration - it reminds me that I still have a lot of things to learn on the production side (which I've always been neglecting to practice). The main thing I worry about with this track is how clear the landmarks are; I think it would need maybe a bit of testing depending on how many loops it goes through on average + the ambience of the area. It's really just a concept track so I didn't worry so much about that at the time! Thanks so much for your review and I hope you're still doing great out there!
