Interesting!

I am unsure what to think of this track. I really like the instrumentation and the mix, but the composition bewilders me. I really want to crank this and jam to it, but there are so many different rhythms happening that I cannot follow it. It certainly sounds like it could be in a video game, but I cannot think of anywhere I would expect it to be. There are no games, genres, or scenes that come to mind when I listen. The emotions or aesthetics you are trying to convey are lost to me.

The polyrhythms are certainly unique, but I'm not sure if it helps the track. It seems to want to go to two different places, but never reaches either. The light melody is trying to go one way, but the mid-range rhythm synth is trying something different. I want to move my head with the music, but I don't know whether to follow the drums, the bass, or the lead melody. The polyrythm technique is very useful for building tension, so I would use it sparingly. You should use it to build a crescendo. Also, I would very up the melody a little bit more, it gets repetitive a little too fast. I noticed it does drop down and plays an arpeggio in a minor chord, but perhaps have the melody play something different on every fourth repetition, or every third time in groups of four.

I am curious what software you used and what time signature you wrote it in. (or if each part was written differently)

In short, the sound is great, but the composition just needs to be a little clearer. Don't give up! :)

LOVE this track!
