Inspired by Moonyzier's work and trying to represent how our lifes branch out into different and unforeseen periods. Also featuring a little celtic-style melody ;)

I like the idea of using unconventional combinations of instruments as a way of representing branching paths. There's a lot of cool ideas the piece goes through, and I love that combination of electric guitar and pizzicato strings towards the end.

One thing I find interesting about the track is its take on branching in a figurative sense. Branches, despite being different, are still connected to one source, and the idea of having these instruments "connecting" to each other by accompanying each other's parts was quite neat. A lot of the composition does, however, feel a bit like a bunch of different jam sessions put together, and they were mostly short-lived.

Overall, this piece has a lot of intriguing ideas and a strange sound design to boot, but I think it generally works in the piece's favour, especially when it comes to illustrating its own musical concept. I enjoyed the unique interpretation of the art and how the end seems as though it's bringing the piece back to its candle-like form, thus connecting with the picture.
