That bass is so nice a g-g-grrrooowwwwwwly! The screamy lead fits in nicely with the sound palette as well. Nice groove!

Duuuude you're working magic here, this sounds greeeat!!! I especially love the first minute or so, feels extra groovy/swingy. Srsly, I'm very envious of your musical skills here. One week for this? Amazing!!!!

I'm honored! Really appreciate this comment. I'm just trying to make music I'm happy with every week and continue to enjoy the process. Every time I feel myself slipping into the feeling that music making is a chore I end up just having fun and making something I'm proud of and for that I'm grateful.

i would be stoked to make something like this!

Paying special attention to the times you mentioned:

1 minute - I agree the entrance of that bass synth is a really nice addition that changes the feel of the track in a great way.

2:00 - The transition really didn't bother me at all.  I think it was actually effective having some sounds drop out.  Kind of gives it a feeling of dynamics and lets the track breathe a little before more stuff came in rather than having everything going all the time.

2:40 - Yeah that call and response thing is sweet.

Nice work!

Great arrangement. I think it builds up to a great ending, I like when sounds cutoff like that!

If this is too be the last rain ever, I can't complain. Don't worry about the transition, it's fine.

Really enjoy this groove, the drums and plucky melody are so bouncy and energetic. Super cool how the bass and different synth parts really change the feeling throughout.

The processing on the plucky melodic voice is dope.  Oh and that like Juno sound that comes in almost like reinforcing the pluck delays (eg. 0:44)... very nice touch.  Great layering throughout too... very nice track.

Excellent variety of sounds from that slick bendy bass synth to the higher arpish melody.  Drums give it a good groove immediately and had me nodding along.  Very fitting name and this could easily fit in a game i've been playing called Katana Zero.  So many cool nuances in all the different sounds used for that melody.  Oooh the lead at 2:45 hell yais.  A dark track with feels of hope on the horizon.  Nice work!

Amazing, because I'd be stoked to make any JWH track!

Whoa appreciate the breakdown! Seems like I was overthinking that transition, and i'm glad I didn't spend too much time trying to "fix" it.

Hell yeah thanks!

Spider, thanks as always, such a prolific commenter.

Thanks! Always fun to see where an idea takes you.

Thanks! I think I'm getting better at the layering. M8 software now includes track level EQ which has been helping, so nice to eq as you build layers.

Awesome! Love to hear when a song fits in with a game. Yeah, it def came out dark yet hopeful! Thanks for listening and commenting!
