For the softer, slower BPM version with more atmospherics but less leads, visit the 'Ambient DnB' mix on Soundcloud here:

But as for this, Milkdromeda is the title track on my in-production album. I quite like the melodies, and the track has good mixing and structure (in my opinion.)
Enjoy, and feel free to message me, review or share around!

This is quite a cool song, with 'Milkdromeda' being a very unique name. I like it! Where did it come from?

I loved the sounds of the synth leads and the feel of the drums. The transition at 1:52 was also pretty well done and probably my favorite part of the song. It was a good example in showing that even if you have similar instruments and melody, the atmosphere of a song can change just like THAT.

I somewhat disliked the repetition of the song. I mean, you kept a very similar melody throughout the song either as the lead during a break or as support for the main melody. That's not necessarily a bad thing, but don't be afraid to change it up a little as well.

All in all, it's a great-sounding piece of work. I think you could change the melody/chord progression up a bit, but for the overall digital atmosphere of the song, it works either way.

FortressLord responds:

Our closest galaxy, Andromeda, is heading towards ours, the Milky Way. Eventually the two galaxies will hit and merge to create Milkdromeda. Not a realistic present-day scenario but a very futuristic concept for music like this.

And it's weird that some people have said it's repetitive. I actually had more note sequences and even a whole pad section in the middle and took it all out and copied other parts of the song over it because I felt the song wouldn't work with too much going for it.
Now I think it may need a revision.
Thanks for the review.

Awsum, sounds like a modern tron soundtrack, great job!

FortressLord responds:

Thanks! I prefer the Ambinet DnB mix to be honest.
