I like this month's challenge because to the difficulty of having to create a composition is added the work of finding and manipulating the sound in a way that helps us express what we want to say.
It's amazing to hear the sound designs we can get out of selected samples. Most of your sounds are impossible to identify with the original samples. Very good job!!!
It should also be noted that we have worked more on the sound part than on the composition part of most of the songs.
I also want to welcome the new participants.
Thank you all!!

Very experimental sound exploration, but very worked. You manage to make incredible effects.
With a depth and feeling of space.
If we compare it to a less experimental composition, your theme lacks a melody, a structure, something the audience can latch on to. But I guess that's what you specifically wanted.
Your music would serve as the soundtrack for a distressing scene.

Good song, more accessible than the previous partner's track.
Are you really a singer? Extraordinary change!!
For the rest of the subject, I don't have much to say. I find it very correct. Good job.

Very good sound design, in a very original song.
I agree with some other colleague that the voice sounds a little out of place. Too dry for the extraordinary sound work of the other parts. The voice is in a too real world, the rest in a very cool alien world.

You also have samples of good sound design. You have made a very powerful topic. With these repetitions that increase the sounds by stacking them and cutting the rhythm.
I don't know what to say as a criticism or improvement proposal. I find a good topic.

Great sound design and nice theme. A little more 'normal' than other entries of this one, which I don't say either negatively or positively.
Maybe I'm missing a more melodic part in the first part. But you create a great atmosphere that makes your track enjoyable to listen to.

I was immediately captivated by your topic. The sounds are really good, the repeating sequence, the sounds coming and going from the sides... nice sound design work.
As a criticism I would say that there is an excessive use of FX that distract attention from the subject. In the second part of the subject between a more interesting part that could be developed further, and extend the subject.

Brutal theme, industrial!!
Maybe you abuse the distortion at certain points, the sound becomes too crunchy.
You do have a lot of ideas in terms of sound design.

You've got a pretty original subject. Far from your style of your previous compositions.
Like the other fellows, and even though you don't like it, you've got great sound design. original
The repetition of the voice creates the main part that keeps you attentive.
Just a criticism, but it's a matter of my taste, I find the laugh you put at minute 1:30 out of place. It distracted me. On the other hand, when you use it again later I find it more correct.

For me it is the big topic of this month. Congratulations!!! I love it!!! You reached my heart.
Personally, I like this type of music.
Great intro, full of nuances. From minute 1:35 things change and you get me to stop doing what I was doing and just concentrate on the music. I love the final part, those reverberating chords, sounding in the background, far away. In the end, I didn't want the topic to end. I wanted more. My heart wants more.

Good sound design. Maybe it lacks a more melodic part. But the topic is fine with the time you spent on it. It would be interesting to hear how it would look if you had more time.

Good sound design and good composition. We've had some really good sound designs this month, but few tracks as well worked on at the compositional level as yours. Really good.
I have nothing to criticize.
aFutureInNoise_AlwaysAround_NP
Good intro but, obviously, it ends too soon.
The sounds are very familiar, I see you used the samples as wavetables in the Surge.
Too bad you couldn't develop more.
The Exponent_LifeLoop-001
Good job. Too bad we can't vote for him.
Good sound design and good composition.
I like it a lot, I don't have much to criticize, because I like it especially at the level of composition.
Thank you all

How do we go from there?
Near the end when the flute instrument comes in it almost sounds like clashing notes rather than being in harmony with the rest of the tune, but this minor. I've heard plenty of good tracks that did similar. Esp oldschool sampler work. Nice work!
