[AlpiNeve]

Woah sexy pitch bend work. Awesome soundscape too! You should compose for indie games lol.

ClitBait responds:

I wish I could compose something for a game

[Crystals]

Dang, nice E/Q and synthwork work man. Suuuuper chill and cosmic goodness!!

[AIM - Thingamabob]

Reminds me of SMT Soul Hackers a bit, or Persona. I recognize that Saxophone sample too...really powerful VST for a freeby. Nice work!

[AIM-Tragedy]

Very beautifully done. Who's cutting those onions??
The craftsmanship and attention to humanization on those violins, cellos etc is just amazing! Really digged the arrangement too! T_T

DigitalProdigy responds:

thank you so much for that. I really appreciate that!!
sorry about those onions!!! 😊

[Taking Out The Trash (AIM2022) Roberta]

Sounds as violent as the description. Excellent. And well produced too!

[AIM 2022 | Siberg - The Journey]

Pretty sick EDM Bladerunner vibe going on here. Definitely fits the animated pic to a tee. Good jorb! Not a judge though, so don't get your hopes up too high hehehe.

Siberg responds:

maybe you should be a judge tho :)

[AIM - Storytellers Tale]

Fairly decent humanization of those acoustic instruments there. I think the reverb level is decent enough. I second L-Mitty that some sort of atmospheric pad/environmental atmosphere in the background wouldn't have hurt. But I think the humanization of your VST instruments here isn't that bad.

[AIM - Stalwart & Ready For Battle]

Produced well enough, but it does get a touch repetetive. I didn't mind the transition phases too much, but yea they coulda used some mild kinda audio cue to let the listener know there's an arrangement shift, particularly since the rhythmic stuff is quite repetitive. I think you're getting there as a composer, keep at it!

[Lost]

Decent enough start. As a simple BGM loop, this could work hehe.

V1ZION responds:

I’ve got something in store for the extended version. :)

[AIM - Where Even the Monsters Cry]

Strings at 0:28 1:25 could've been mixed down and given a lot more reverb imo, plus that segment coulda been shorter as well. Took us a bit too long to get to the 'good part'. The rest of the track is decent enough, especially with the percussion. Nice work.
