Orchestral music, weird instruments, and sample libraries just about sums it up.

So the website was getting to cluttered again. This previous iteration lasted about a full year! I decided to go with something more sleek and minimal. Check it out and let me know what you think in the comments! Suggestions? Thoughts?
I also put up the score to a game I did a while back if you want to check out what my game music sounds like. Some sweet old battle tracks in there.
Also: How's everyone's day going? :)
I like the look/design. Some things are missing such as links to social media etc... Going to add those?
I didn't realise the 4 of you (You, Skye, Nimble and Troisnyx) were a team, that's pretty awesome. Do you seek out others to join (as a kind of label or something) or did you just start the endeavour with those guys?
I'm still going to add social and some footer stuff when I have time.
Right now we're kinda just a group. I started VS alone a few years ago and invited them onboard about a year ago.
It looks nice! The blurry background works particularly well.
I think the first menu level should be expanded by default. Otherwise, it just looks like your website is only one page. Also, the fancy italic fonts look great, but they may be very difficult for some people to read, especially because some of the letters are missing pieces.
It would be good if you could provide visual feedback on the music players, to show whether or not a track is playing. I kept accidentally having multiple players going at once, and couldn't figure out which ones to stop!
I'll try to work on adding more visual feedback to the site and find a replacement for the italic font eventually. Thanks for the feedback!
Good job with the game soundtrack. I noticed most of the non-battle music has a heavy/sad tone to it.
My day is going well. A bright spot in a dark time, I guess you could say.
The game was pretty dark. Lots of death and dying and stuff.
Glad to hear you're having a good day! Good days are always good. :)

Good stuff. The 'Versilian Studios' header looks simple yet elegant.
The calligraphic text looks beautiful and all, but I think it's a difficult to read certain sub-headings (like all of your names for instance, especially Troisnyx's name and the 'Service Request' title.)
I don't know you've cut out and edited some of the text, but it looks like it's got some gaps in it. That might just be me though, apologies if that's how the text actually is.
Minor aesthetic nitpicks aside, it's a neat little site that's easy to navigate through and I do admire the team profiles and everything. To answer your last question: my day's uneventful and lazy, I hope to at least do some 3D later though.
Take care, Samulis, and keep going on your audio and artistic works!

Hey Potent,
Thanks for the feedback. I'm still not fully satisfied with the calligraphic text, I defo agree it can be a bit hard to read. :)
The kernelling with the calligraphic font is a little durpy. Not much I can do though.
Best of luck with the 3D stuff! I need to do more... I've almost forgotten how to use the program.
