I think one of the stand out elements of this song is that tremelo'd (is that even a work?) trance-y lead , and it leads into that big washed out pad that just sounds delightful.

I could easily jump on the flow of this track and get carried away. It was developing smoothly and kept my interest. Well done.

Never used images/gifs here before (hope it works) but this is such a head bopper I had to show it This track builds so much anticipation, I think largely through harmony. Moments where it sits on one chord for an especially long time work really well for my ears. Also, the sun?!?

I used to play so many ps1 scifi games back in the day and this just sends me back to those times.
Amazing textures and swells

Side note: I recently saw a capybara and didn't realize how large they can be. Like I thought they were the size of puppies. Idk why

Love the pacing and chord progression of this.  The melodies blend so nicely together with the pulsing sort of rhythm that goes on throughout.  Really calming effect.

Thanks! It was one of the last editions, and I struggled with what to do with it, so I’m glad to hear it worked out okay.

Thank you! That was my hope for this track, so I’m very glad to hear it.

All aboard! Hehe, thanks.

Thank you! It’s funny - I started off the year in pursuit of a heavier, darker sound, but I guess I’m back on the mood for some upbeat energy these days. Maybe there’s a way to tie the two together somehow.

Thanks so much! And yep - the sun! I hear the weather there is always perfect.

I’m very happy to hear that. Thank you!

Very happy to hear this too! And yeah, they’re surprisingly big. In fairness, they do start off the size of puppies when they’re very little.

Wow! Thanks so much!

Neat! Thank you.

Thanks so much!

missed this last week and so glad i came back. WOW! really playful but deep track, totally uplifting without being cloying.
i love that trick at the beginning where the more lofi keyboard sounding beat transitions into big main beat. almost like an image coming into focus or something. may have to try that sometime!

Me too. It's a work in progress, but I'm hoping I can stick the landing.
And yep, the sun sure is pretty warm this time of year! Just be sure to wear plenty of sunblock.

Thank you very much! Glad to hear the intro worked alright.
