So many vivid images you have painted into this one, my friend. I was on the edge of my seat Wondering what each stroke of the brush, or note, would reavel next!
I enjoyed this 🤔🎶👏

Dreamy and meandering both on the guitar and through your words. I like the chorus.

Wow that guitar tone! Reminiscent of a favorite song of mine, Bob Schneider "The Bridge Builders". I love the subdued pace, plenty of power but also no need to go any faster than this.

self prod

tell me
do u got the chops
are you made enough

hurt you
they just want to hurt you
youve had enough

u don't have nobody
to turn to
they burn you
patch it up and move on

but these shadows way too strong
i don't wanna take too long

i'm on the edge
i'm feeling things
i never felt
i'm just a ghost

phase right through me
the days turn slowly
nights they're too short
for me to meditate
i over medicate
to get my head straight

but i been leanin
soft day dreamin

despondency

THE GAME : 

In "Reset Rhythm" you will be facing mysterious creatures coming from the deep space-time !

Those have the frightening power to twist space and time... The fantasy world of your character starts crumbling and behaving weirdly. You'll be embarqued on a quest to find what truely happens and you'll face them. Then, you'll enventually acquire this power to fight back !

To resolve the mysteries occuring around you, fights against these odd entities involving time and space distortions will provide a refreshing gameplay !

Time to Reset Rhythm ! :D

THE MUSIC :

This one track can be seen as a teaser/trailer for the game "Reset Ryhthm". 

I used Risset rhythms (named after Jean-Claude Risset) => hence the name Reset rhythm ^^ <= in order to translate time and space distortions. You'll also hear accelerations and decelerations with the synth/beat conveying a battle/fight mood. Then there are some spaces for airy moments - which I love doing, to picture  the fantasy world of the game.

I hope you'll enjoy it !

Timeline for thee fictive trailer :

How I imagined the video trailer : ( it's a colorful and playful world overall !)

0:00 =>The opening of the song is set in space, and some kind of giant distorted portal slowly opens.

0:44 =>The build up leads to these aggressive synths, where mysterious creatures starts flowing everywhere.
It get intense as more ans more are coming while disturbing space and time around them.
The video zoom out to reveal your character alerted by those strange disturbances.

1:13 =>Then, on the switch to the slow piano part, the hero finds himself floating in space, drifting away from the giant portal seen earlier.

1:32 => As those reversed synths lines comes, he is thrown faster ans faster into a tunnel of rainbowish light until the aggresive syht comes back.

1:57 => From now on, along the accelerations/decelerations, he is panickingly trying to avoid the mysterious creatures assailling him.

2:27 => On the following piano part, he finally make it back to home. Everything is messed up, but he finds courage in his friends and somehow finds an artefact. Giving him the power to twist space and time too.

3:16 => So, when the aggressive synth are back, it's him this time ! Escalading in a space light tunnel and crushing every creature on his way.
3:36 => With the arpegiated syth, he gets to the portal and closes it ( or twist or distort ^^) thanks to the artefact.

3:46 => Finally, that last slow part shows everything gowing backwards or being fixed in a happy ending :)

OST Comp Jam 6

Reset Rhythm

Moonbeams in satellite
Floating seeds in sunlight
All that’s left to be
Is inside me

Like a hummingbird out of sight
Or a stubborn candle that will not light
“I have tried in my way to be free”

Paint-covered Stencils strewn across faded wood flooring
An old dog begins snoring
Prisms of rainbows erupt in the sky, after the rain was pouring
Rolled up empty tubes of acrylic paint
Tarot cards of the saints
Did you ever make it back there?
The old abandoned church
Cradled between lilac and silver birch
Verdant ivy vines peaking through broken window panes
The great blue heron the sandhill crane
That broken organ they abandoned
Through all the rubble, no treasure left unexamined
That four-leaf clover pressed into a kids scary book
The chorus of the frogs alongside the babbling brook

So softly singing
So softly
Singing
Singing so softly
