Forty-Two got it down, both beautiful and eerie. Great entry.

Bleh moon is most lunar.

The lonely moon is also very good.

The drums on The Moon Guides Me aren't bad, but would have been better as war drums, in my opinion.

"bleh moon" - This blend of noise really painted the night sky for me, red moon and all. Loved that chord change at 1:03.

"the lonely moon" - Nicely arranged; I like the fade-in notes. I guess I wasn't really a fan of the way the percussion was introduced, but it took care of itself towards the end of the piece.

"Bloodmoon Song" - I like the light "plucking" of the instruments with that underlying bass, which adds the right touch of eeriness.

Other mentions!

"Wors of the Muun" - It's a good hook, but yeah some of the chords, like the one at ~0:40 - 0:41 don't really work out.

"The Moon Guides Me" - This was pretty close to beating out my third choice. Ultimately it came down to which I just liked more, but I by no means hated this or anything. It's strangely haunting yet contrived in its dance form.

"red rarity" - Really interesting tuning - sounding almost pleasant to the ears yet at the same time with the awareness that something sounds really off. Quite intriguing.

"Important message with extremely useful advice" - At this point, I just decided to stop listening and felt the need to "JUST DO IT" (jk). This is very fun and hilarious to listen to.

There weren't that many entries this week, but they were all quite different and seemed well rounded enough. A little on the short side, but I'd say it was a satisfying round this week.

Forty-Two: the lonely moon is a lovely moon. Very pretty entry! I enjoyed how it starts somewhat dark and slowly becomes brighter. Lots of magic here.

aptbr: I really liked the textures and mood of this entry.

sci: imo this doesn't follow the theme super well, but it's super interesting and fresh.

 

awesum: aptbr, dusthillguy, Forty-Two, sci.
good: Arcana, Koekepan, Random-storykeeper.
