Runaway Robot

Title: Runaway Robot

Genre: Metal, Dark Synthwave, Ambient 

 The idea I got from the theme "Runaway" was a robot escaping its factory by fighting its way out to the outside world with nature and such to be free. I've made the robots story around 3 separate tracks sort of intertwining with each other. The main things that describe my music is glitchy, heavy and kind of a dark atmosphere overall. 

The first track "The inside" is meant to be the track acting as the intro, a buildup into the second track. In my head it was acting as the breaking point for the robot to breakout of the factory and try to runaway. Most of the layers in this track are incredibly distorted and granulized. I would take synth patches I made in serum and put them through fruity granulizer, glitch machines fracture and just kinda see where I got with them to create some cool sounds. 

The second track "Firefight" is to act as the battle theme for the robot breaking out of the factory getting into a shootout with the guards there or something like that. If this track was to be used in a game, I imagine it would act as like a dynamic battle theme similar to games like DMC 5 or metal gear rising. The song is divided into multiple sections that all fit into a battle theme but each section have like different levels of intensity. I tried to keep the consistent sound with this track as well. I also recorded some heavy guitar sections for this track which I think just sound cool. 

The third track "The outside" is to showcase the outside world the robot gets to when it escapes. I tried making something like a ambient nature track mixed with the glitchy sound of the other two tracks. There nature sounds throughout the track like birds chirping, the sound of water and wind are thrown in there as well. I even put in my vocals and put a lot of effects over them to sound like a robot. Overall just a nice calm conclusion.

First time writing a small soundtrack like this I hope people who listen like it and any feedback and such is much appreciated, thanks!
