[For What It's Worth]

Damn, I absolutely love the vibe on this! To me, it has this really eerie and haunting atmosphere to it and I feel like I'm walking through an abandoned factory or facility slowly uncovering the secrets it once held. It also kind of makes me think about wandering down a misty path and wherever you go, you see nothing but the remnants of a destroyed civilization. It's just nothing but a burning path of destruction.

Anyway tho, I love this and that guitar during the final part is probably my favourite thing about this. I feel like it's the perfect addition that just makes the song feel complete

[Cvmpliant- DIVINITY]

This is just beautiful! Just from the intro alone, I feel like I'm being taken into this divine world that's beyond imagination and it's landscape is filled with vibrant colours that blend together to form a sight you never forget. I can picture those trees, plants, the animals and that sunrise or sunset that just lights the world up making you feel like you're transcending into a place you can only describe as paradise.

Anyway tho, I think this perfectly suits the name and it personally really makes me think about some divine place or something that's just beyond our imagination

[hpx - unfounded thoughts]

I really love the atmosphere on this! It really gives me this feeling that you're searching or longing for something that you've lost and you're trying your hardest to find it again. It's like you're running through a maze trying to find the exit but no matter where you go, you just can't seem to find it. You always just end up at a dead end wondering if you'll ever find what you're looking for

This is really amazing! I was not expecting that final drop to be like that since it really feels like it suits the meaning of the song and it perfectly fits in with everything else. I really like how chill this is as well and how it slowly progresses since it's like your nostalgia is becoming stronger and those connections are becoming more of a distant memory. I don't really have much else to say about the song but it's really chill and I like how things slowly build up until that final drop.

Kz-N responds:

thanks a lot! i always try to tell a story in my music, even if it means having 1 of the 3 drops in a lofi song be dubstep lmao, i'm glad you pictured it just the way i intended :D

[[EUPHORIA SYSTEM] - The Void Promise To Remember Me]

I really like this and I kind of like the way everything flows in the song. The intro and outro kind of feel like opposites to each other in my opinion and the vibe they give off is really different yet they're really similar. The intro feels more like your stepping into a new world or something like that or you are sitting on a bench looking at the world around you remembering the things you've experienced. The outro is similar to the intro but the vibe of it is really different and it feels more like things are fading, like you're watching as things change until eventually it becomes a unfamiliar sight. The sounds in the outro kind of remind me of a heartbeat in a way but that might just be me. As for the other parts of the song, I really like how the melody kind of doesn't really change despite other parts of the song changing as it progresses. In a way, it suits the name of the song since it's like the void is keeping it's promise and it's remembering you. Even if it's memories change and it starts to forget or not quite remember everything, it still remembers that one specific part. I also feel like the little vocals repeating remember throughout the song also kind of represent that and it's like this being or whatever the void could be is telling itself to remember and to not forget you.

Other than that though, I don't really have any thoughts or stuff to share since I couldn't really think of a way of describing my thoughts about this song so I tried my best to at least write something. Also, I really like what you've written in the author comments since to me, it feels like that could be telling a story or it could be part of a story and it also really suits the song as well. I do wonder if there is some meaning to it or if that was just something you decided to write for this song.

Edit since I can't respond to the reply: That's really interesting, I didn't think about that with the meaning of void since I personally thought that for this song, void might've been referring to something or someone. I didn't think about the literal meaning of it but that's really cool though. I guess what I said about how the outro feels like things are fading suits what you were going for with this song. Now that I know what this song is about, the vibe of the song feels very different when I listen to it and so does what you've written in the author comments. No need to thank me for the words though, I just wanted to share my thoughts since I really liked and enjoyed the song.

onumi responds:

Thank you for the words, in the case of this song “void” is used as in “null and void” , as in invalid or expired. “The void promise” means more like “the broken promise” , the song isn’t about being remembered, it’s about a broken promise to be remembered - so it’s actually about being slowly forgotten.

The voice is saying “member, remember, member, remember me”

[Cyberiaclub_01]

I really love the atmosphere in this song and the general build up of the song! It has this mysterious feel to it and I can really imagine some kind of sci fi or dystopian city while listening to it. I feel like this would really suit a game that's set in some dystopian city where the protagonist is trying to find out the truth about what's going on in their city and why it is the way it is. This could be played while they explore like a factory or an abandoned place where the truth has laid dormant for years and you get to see that the truth is far worse than you could've imagined. This would really help to give off that mysterious feeling and it would perfectly capture that moment.

Anyway though, this is really good! I don't have much to say about it since I pretty much enjoy the whole thing from beginning to end and it was really nice to listen to.

[for what i was born?]

I don't really have much to say about this song nor do I have any thoughts about it but I do have some things I can say about it. I feel like the song can be a bit repetitive at times but I feel like that matches the title of the song since it's like your asking yourself the same question. I also feel like the sounds that are going on in the background as well also help to represent the confusion and how you're thinking about why you're here. It could also represent how you ask yourself the same question, always wondering what it means.

Other than that though, I don't really have any other thoughts for this.

[sophie (cover)]

This is really nice. Even though I haven't played it and only know about it from it's music, it reminds me of silent hill a bit. I listened to the original after this and I feel like both your cover and the original have a feeling of desolation to them but they're used in different ways. The original feels more as if someone has lost hope or someone who is wandering looking for something that they'll never be able to find. It also makes me think about seeing someone change and no matter how hard you try, you can't bring that person back to who they used to be.

Your cover on the other hand has more of a post apocalyptic feel to it. I can imagine someone sitting on a roof of a buliding that's now been taken over by nature playing this remembering things. They remember what exactly caused this and what happened to everyone that would've lived nearby. They remember what life was like before whatever caused the world to become like this, what their family was like and how everyone would be like in the world's current state. The jokes their friends may have made, what their family may have done to comfort them or keep them going. They're one of the survivors now though, alone searching for any remnants of life that may be left or maybe they may just be enjoying the peace, reminiscing on what could've been if the people they cared for were still here. They wish those people could be here to see a world that's ruled by no one, just a quiet place where the wind blows. To this person, it's a tragic paradise. One where they can get peace and freedom like they've always wanted to but to get that, they lose something that they may never be able to get again.

Anyway, I really enjoyed this. It's similar to the original but it has it's own feel to it that makes it slightly different from the original in my opinion.

[golfstream]

This song has quite a melancholic feel it. It makes me think of a character in a story who wants to get revenge for something that's happened and they're standing looking at the destruction or the death that's happened. They think about everything and no matter what, they're determined to find the person responsible for it no matter the cost, they become blinded by vengeance. The entire song could be a represntation of that. The beginning part up until 0:32 represents the character witnessing the event and seeing the destruction or the death that's been caused by someone. The part from 0:32 to 0:44 represents the character seeing the person who caused it and that's when they become blinded by vengeance not thinking about anything other than killing that person. The part after that until 1:35 represents the charcter growing up and the extent that they will go to revenge. It shows the extent of that person's vengeance and far how they will go just to be able to find and kill the person responsible for their pain. The part after that until 2:01 is when the character finally finds out exactly where that person is. The part after that then represents the moment when they finally are able to get their vengeance for what's happened. The very final part after 2:52 could be a representation for two different things. It could represent the moment when they are finally free their vengeance and their pain. On the other hand though, it could represent the moment when they realize that their vengeance hasn't done anything. They may have stopped the person but they question whether getting revenge was truly worth it after everything they've did and after how much it changed them.

Anyway, overall, I really like this. I quite like the glitchy sound or whatever it would be called since it does help to add an atmosphere to the song. Other than that, I have no other thoughts on this.

eukoraoff responds:

Well, of course you are a philosopher. everyone may perceive my tracks differently, but I named it glofstream after the strait golfstream, which has been flowing in one direction for several centuries, which I interpreted here as eternal stagnation in terms of development, fear of leaving the comfort zone, fear of starting something new due to fear of failure and criticism from society. That's why I make my tracks without lyrics, so that everyone can feel their own atmosphere, reminding each person of something different. And I’m also shy about my voice :)))))))))
