Thanks! Yeah, I think I agree with you about the lead at 0:55. The orchestral samples came from: Rhapsody: Orchestral Colors Ventus Tin Whistle (just realized I didn't really spend any time humanizing this, whoops) Dimension LE (I think I got this for free. I'm not sure it's available anymore.)

I'm working on an album, and I want to get some feedback early on so I start on the right foot! Here's what I've got so far. Tell me what I'm doing wrong please The Walls of Cydonia

This is "Sandstorm Ballad" by Rellik, previously hosted on VGMix. I have it on an old CD.

Thank you! It’s always interesting to hear what people’s favorites are. Swamp Luminescence came from a 2013 WIP that I pulled out of storage and reworked/finished. It was one of the key tracks when I was originally deciding on a tone for the album. Replumification, on the other hand, wasn’t started until everything else was finished. So you’ve kind of got the bookends there. I appreciate the compliment on the mixing. I’ve always seen it as my weak point, so I try my best to keep improving!

A couple years ago, I released Zest Quest, an original album about fruit planets. Since then, I’ve decided to make more music set in the same universe, and I just released number 2! Expedition to PL21-13 It contains a mishmash of retro sounds with an emphasis on things that sounded purple to me, paired with a story about unpaid interns searching a swampy alien planet for a robot sent by their ancestors hundreds of years ago. If you’re into flavor text, there's a full description on Bandcamp, and the album download comes with a 5-page PDF of log entries. The original concept for the album had no narrative context...but it turned out that giving it a story and connecting it to Zest Quest unleashed a rush of motivation. Now I’m looking forward to all the possibilities for fleshing out this universe. Hope you enjoy!

Wow, it's been almost 8 years. I don't know what's currently going on for Reckenefin, but I know I burned out on project management a long time ago. We briefly tried to get remotivated a couple years ago, and then...nothing. I don't have the energy to continue in any kind of involved capacity, but since it's really Reckenefin's brainchild, it's not my project to hand over. If he doesn't respond sometime in the near future, I could shoot him an email to see what's on his mind.

I took some time to paws and reflect on the mix, and I'm not entirely sure what else to do with it. Any suggestions?

Doggy Accessories This arrangement is about Chain Chomps and the women who love them. Let me know if I should adjust some things. Sources: Mario Odyssey - Cascade Kingdom Link's Awakening - Mabe Village

I'm lucky enough to live within the band of totality. We got about 2 and a half minutes. It was incredible. There was a lot of thin cloud cover, which worried me, but we still got a pretty clear view. I even saw a star.

I finally finished the original album I've had in the works for years! Check it out if you like anything vaguely chiptuney! https://hylianlemon.bandcamp.com/album/zest-quest Thanks to Phonetic Hero for helping out with the final track and for holding me accountable for making progress.

Thanks! The chippy parts were made with FL Studio's 3xOsc plugin, and the LttP strings were from a soundfont by Blitz Lunar.

New version! It has an ending now. Let me know what y'all think. Garrett: Yep, there's a mixture of SNES and Genesis samples.

Multi-Track Drifting Source: The Final Exam (The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks) Inspiration: F-Zero The original tune was composed by Manaka Kataoka, the lead composer for Breath of the Wild. So why not get some BotW hype started with some lo-fi orchestra hits? Comments welcome!

Hmm...Zelda's quest to rescue Link for the sole purpose of keeping the duck walk alive, eh? That works.
