I liked the idea behind the suite. I was left wondering why there was
a bottle blowing sound in the first tune.. perhaps a clock chime (or a
variety of bells) might have suited it better? I think this music
would not be at all out of place in a children's cartoon or as
background music in a related documentary. That being said, it did
sound very "background". No real tunes to hum. Some of the melodies
seemed random to me. Also, for a clockwork based theme, there were a
couple of iffy bits of timing for the lead parts I think? Complete
hard quantization would be entirely appropriate here.

The whole does hang together well though, and I enjoyed the sounds you
used. I think the last one is my fave - has some bladerunner-ish
aspect to it. What's the analog synth sound you used for that tune and
also the other sound you used for the main part in time thief?
