[Lost Chronology - The Egg of the Incunabula]

I am digging that corrupt, glitchy vibe with the beat. The other elements definately lend to an alien vibe. In fact, the vox/pads remind me of some classic sci-fi animes, same with the semi detuned strings. Also, who's playing ping-pong in the background? Haha...it just works. Damn good piano melodies. Love how this evolves. Nice work dood.

LostChronology responds:

Thanks for your feedback man! :)

[~Adventure Land - Mysterious Opening~]

Pretty chill. Not a bad take imo. This'd make a great Low-Fi/Atmospheric beat for some other project for sure.

[Astro-Reality - Space Loop]

Trippy. Nice Earthbound vibes.

[Disc Gun OST]

Great arcade vibe. Reminds me of Daniel Baranowsky's work. Loops perfectly.

[Akira Yamaoka - Float Up from Dream [J-DieswYx Edit]]

Kinda wish you added a bass-line so the drums had more of a home. It'd also be a bit more original and less cover-ish too. Oh well. Interesting idea.

[Before Summer Ends]

I enjoyed it, very entrancing style...they say 'slow and heavy does it' (Actually, they don't, but hey, someone has to quip that line)... I hope to hear more of your works down the line and that your life will be a bit less hectic in the future. :D

[Halo: ODST]

my friend and I had a helluva time with that campaign lol. Too bad the guns were nerfed compared to Halo 3. Oh well. I did like the OST though!

Love the sample quality here. The timber of the strings is fantastic. Beat is good too. Nice interpretation man. Oooo 2:45 choirs are sexy...why does this part remind me of 007?? Oh well...great work mate.

Desmae responds:

Thanks a lot man, poured a few hours into this, I'm glad you like it.

[TRASH HORSE]

Pretty kewl. This'd make cool mini boss music or something. Would like to see it more developed :3

[Spider Cavern]

Damn, this is hella creepy and jank - in the good way. I think it's mixed pretty well. The wet/bony sound is very disturbing... Like we're inside Pennywise's Sewer. Ick.

BakiTheFox responds:

Thank you! I actually made this from objects in my shed. Haha

[The Resurrection]

And another under-appreciated tune at NG. Great vocal sample - love the haunting distortion to it. Reminds me of some Western RPG's made in the early 2000's. Actually, I'm also feeling some Chrono Trigger in this. Like a VERY remixed version of the Queen Zeal theme. Lots of applications here. Oh! Great production too, especially knowing that you used Sonatina Orchestra - some good use of freeware for sure - that takes talent :)

BakiTheFox responds:

Thank you, I was having a lot of issues working out the mixing for it but I got it as good as I could. I think maybe there's some phasing issue but eventually I might go back and fix it.
