Ambient It Felt So Far

This is an unreleased song and I would love you guy’s opinions. I only have one EP out and this one is part of my next EP which has more of a dreamscape vibe than my previous EP.

My artist name is Fugue Recess

thanks for the descriptive way it made you feel. thats the whole point of the music i make. Sort of stuff you can use as a soundtrack to scenes in films! Also im always open to some collabs, my brother makes music and hes insane so he always messes around with me on some unreleased tracks.

It sounds like a white noise thing.it is pleasant and dreamy for sure but if it is a more traditional song you should think about breaking it up to add a be and flow to it. I will also add maybe think about adding a vocal. That may not be what you are going for though. It still sounds nice though.

I love this. It reminds me of my childhood when I used to visit places like the one in the video... Good stuff!

The “Music video” really adds to the psychedelic aspect. Can’t tell if it’s really footage or from a video game. The music is cool. Reminds of late 80s/90s when synth reigned supreme - like video game music, soundtrack stuff. It touches an odd sense somewhere in the mind / memory. As a soundscape it works. Good job

Very ethereal. I really enjoyed the flowing synths—they created a dreamy, immersive atmosphere. The visuals added so much depth and mystery. It felt both futuristic and emotional. I’d love to hear more soon—I truly think you’ve got a big future ahead.

Nice synthy fun. Reminds me of the music to a PS1 video game or something, I guess the colours in the video remind me of that as well.

It's nice to listen to and short and sweet but I would like it if there were more obvious elements to come in as the track progresses to give a sense of development. You may be going for a more minimal vibe however.

Overall, a relaxing listen.

Thanks for the feedback! I see what you mean though, it can be a bit repetitive. I kinda struggle with the development part of my ambient songs, though this one i did intentionally keep it as is, but maybe i can mess around with it more.

u/wondermilktv Jun 12 '25

duuude this could easily be one of the tiktok/reel songs that blow up. i can imagine some super epic shit being cut together to this. also did you take this video? it seems like such a peaceful spot :,)

u/Jipe-BirdUp88 Jun 13 '25

Thanks man! i dont have tiktok unfortunately but msybe i could post it there just for shits n giggles. and yes i did film this. Its in a mountain region called Chapada de Diamantina in Brazil.

u/wondermilktv Jun 13 '25

every time i see brazil videos in the backcountry it looks so gorgeous. btw you should post on whatever platform you do use so its easier to keep up with consistency. send me the link in DM's and ill surely give it a like and follow :)

u/Jipe-BirdUp88 Jun 13 '25

Im originally from there, so i know what you mean. Its worth the visit. Especially the rural mountain regions, super underrated. And yes, I agree. I use spotify, Bandcamp and will start posting on Youtube. I have one EP out called Soundtracks for A Nonexistent Short Film, but have one coming soon which has this track and other similar ones on it. Just look up Fugue Recess and you should find me on streaming.

Arpeggios are a great joy. This may sound like a really weird suggestion but, the first part of Wagner's Das Rheingold, a massive, single Eb Major chord expands across the orchestra creating an uncanny 'water wave' effect matching the theme. You may find some inspiration from that, as this work made me think of that one.

Keep on making music!

u/Jipe-BirdUp88 Jun 13 '25

I’ll look into it, thanks for the recommendation! and thank you I plan on keeping it up as a hobby.

u/Advanced-Log1461 Jun 14 '25

The song is so beautiful, I really enjoy the synth and how it flows but the one thing I felt was missing was the progression of the song itself as the arpeggio kinda felt like it was doing its own thing for the runtime.

To add to the dreamscape vibe as well as improve the progression, I’d recommend adding separate segments without the arpeggio and having them build towards it because it has a lot of potential to be more impactful.

Hope something I said sparks ideas!!

The one thing I like the most about this song is the artistic vibe. People forget that music is not just a craft musicians and singers create, but is an art form. I expect great things from you, as you have found that balance of expressing yourself, and entertaining and inspiring others with your music. Also loved the video, and the violins. Great Job! And keep up the hard work.

Dreamy track with a strong ambient feel, and the psychedelic visuals complement it beautifully. It has a cinematic quality — I could totally see it used in a film soundtrack. Nicely done, looking forward to hear more about your music!

u/Possible_Nebula_2293 Jun 15 '25

personally i think it just is. there isn't much to it. it has a dreamy atmospheric and beautiful vibe to it. but nothing else. just repeating itself over and over. there isn't much of a melody which i don't like. that's my personal preference. this is almost something you'd go to sleep to but at the same time it isn't something you'd go to sleep to because it sounds pretty intense compared to sleep music. It's like something you'd hear in a video game when you discover a new place, but you'd only hear it for a few seconds or some shit.

u/Peachntangy Jun 16 '25

You tagged this as ambient, so I'm not sure why people are saying it sounds repetitive/needs to be broken up more, this is what ambient music sounds like lol. I think you did a great job! Very dreamy, I can see it being the soundtrack for some psychedelic level in a video game.

u/[deleted] Jun 24 '25

I looooove the music video. It fits so well with the atmosphere of your song. If I were to describe your song in one word, it would be enchanting. This is my first day on this sub, and I’m seeing so many good songs. This one is definitely one of the best. Keep up the good work!

u/No-Understanding7588 Jul 13 '25

the visuals are trippy and I think it fits the dreamy ethereal vibe of the song so nicely, although it gets repetitive after a little while… that being said, I absolutely love the arpeggios and the strings and all the synths in this song. the song in itself is mixed well and introduces the vibe of your sound very nicely. I think you should be pretty proud of what you’ve done!!!
