PeterthePapercomPoser Posted 15 hours ago Posted 15 hours ago I have borrowed a motif from my Ice Cave VGM track that I published not long ago. This time I applied a microtonal inflection to the motif (in 24 TET). The environment would require the player to go cave-diving during this music. I tried to make the piece sound watery through the use of Alto Flute and a low Vibraphone (played by Lumatone) ostinato. The idea that prompted the creation of this track was to layer on top of each other heterophonically or polyphonically different microtonal variations of the same motif. Let me know what you think and whether I've succeeded! I welcome any of your comments, suggestions, critiques, or just observations. Thanks for listening!

chopin Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago Certainly a very water-like feel to this. Almost hypnotizing! I definitely am getting a very claustrophobic vibe. But in a way, this sorta reminds me of Mario 64's water theme. The moods are completely different, but textures are similar. Your music is much more complex especially with the microtones, and more focused on atmosphere, whereas Nintendo's version focuses on melody. But both pieces of music achieve their intended effects! 1 Quote

But I thought for sure that you would say that it reminds you of the Zelda: A Link to the Past cave music because of the col legno strings: Thanks for your review! 1 Quote
