Really happy with this week!! It starts out a bit eerie, but becomes kinda catchy. It felt like the next to last level of a platformer to me - like you have all the powerups, and you are going though a fast-paced but not urgent level on your way to the end of the game. Idk, lol.

There was some music in the SNES game Terranigma that used what sounded a little like a Gamelan instrument set, as the opening to this track does. Of course it lacks the characteristic push and pull of detuned instruments that Gamelan has. Nonetheless, if you've not played the game you may enjoy it, and I enjoy this music.
Really enjoyed this. The textures remind me of something from Goldeneye 64. Awesome work man. 
i love how the track stays fairly subdued, great background music
Starts minimalistic, gets really thick really quickly. It is much more rhythmic than catchy, but it gives you a sense of native savagery or something, where things are going to get down and dirty. There are some really subtle high-pitched squeaks (are they rusty chains?) around 2/3s of the way through that kind of hurt my ears though. You could easily work this into more ambient themes, or add a melody and then suddenly it becomes a really intense theme song of sorts, it's such a versatile piece of work. Good work!
I love how the bells modulate from hypnotic rhythm to supporting the main phrase, great ambiance
