Theme

Panspermia (Πανσπερμία)

How does it fit the theme?
The music is mainly composed of spacey instruments and presets, aided bu immersive but slow and spacy synths and strings. This music wants to emphasize that even in the farthest outer space, lifeform could exists in any kind.

Ok, this reminds me a lot of a song by Edwarda Savitnaag that was on some anime boobs puzzle game I played on Steam :D I even bought its soundtrack, that's how much I liked it. :D

So this one reminds me of it a lot and that's just great! I really loved this song. It goes the right paths along with what kind of melancholic music I have always loved. One of my favorites in this jam!

Sounds good! Very well produced. I really didn't mind having the same chord progression all over the tune cause every now and then something new and refreshing appeared. I´d love to see another track.

The strings where a good fit.

I liked the synth you introduced around 1:00, it had  an interesting texture. I feel like the track could generally use more variation in the chords and having some instruments stop at some points to create more tension and release. The melodies were great - it's true that in the beginning it made me think to Interstellar. Good job overall!

Very nice track, I like eerie feeling and atmosphere.

Some Interstellar vibes! :)

Very cool idea ! Maybe next time try to implement some variations in the background and their motives... will  help a lot to sustain your main melody :)

I love the sci-fi feel of this track! The progression you used reminded me of Final Hours from Majora's Mask.

The chords do feel somewhat repetitive after a little while: I would recommend changing them periodically, or just extending the progression, to keep the listener's interest going. Changing the dynamics will also help! Building up to a high point and then getting softer would add more tension and release to the track.

Regardless, the final mix sounds really rich and I loved all the instruments you incorporated.

Solid entry! I liked the track's phases and it was very easy to listen to. Some parts could feel repetitive, but it was overall very enjoyable!
