[bloom]

Trying to base a song on the seasons has always been tricky. I think you really nailed Spring with this one. Bloom helps you imagine plants popping up from the ground, and new flowers sprouting. It is upbeat and happy.

thank you!

[crossing the vast hills]

This is a nice twist on the traditional classical genre. I do feel the adventurous spirit that was infused into this song. I can imagine myself on a quest and heading towards the next location while this plays in the background.

[Jeemboo - Melonade]

I can feel the influence of a NCS vibe. However, this is its own tune. I find it to be quite relaxing and refreshing. This is a nice House musical track.

[DREADNOUGHT - petrolgirl]

Some songs are very relaxing, and some make you want to dance. This is defiantly one that motivates you to dance. Excellent use of synth and electronic flare. The drum work and bass are top notch.

thank you!!

[Crowd Control [but slower]]

Your techno version of this song is definitely different. It has a much different rhythm and general beat. The slowed-down effect was not the best idea for me. I prefer this musical track when it is at the normal tempo.

Quarl responds:

Lol, I'm happy to hear people chime in on their preferences. The minor differences between the two versions were bugging me out.

[Hickory Dickory Dock]

I think this is the first classical song that I have heard, that has been remastered. It is a simple nursery rhyme that has an interesting twist on it. It reminds me of something you would hear in a Pixar or a Disney film.

Deemo-R responds:

Thanks! It is a bit of a strange piece in that way, but that's what makes the small challenges fun! Appreciate the Disney/Pixar comparison!

[cant get enough]

I am getting more into old school hip hop. I am enjoying the funky beat. You did a good job of not being cheesy The rap influence was a nice touch. The chill vibe was the best part.

[Rymdsylt]

I must admit that I am still new to the concept of chiptune. I am very familiar with video game music, and this is definitely it. Plenty of uptempo rhythms and happy beats. Keep up the great work.

[Melting Canyon (T.O.F.U OST)]

Video game music will always have a soft spot with me. After over twenty years of playing video games, it will always take me back to those happier days of my youth. I enjoyed the beat and the rhythm of this music track.

[Asteroid-Powered Spaceship]

Oldschool hip hop, is not my favorite type of music. However, I can appreciate this song. The piano and string work are both done very well. There is a good tone, and a nice beat throughout the track.
