I wanted to make an ambient track but make the structure and melodies of the song to be complex but simple.

I like the dreamy texture at the beginning and the crisp drums at :10. The production quality is really solid, and the texture, while pretty minimal, is also pretty well balanced. The progression is pretty slow-paced, though, and overall the composition is pretty underwhelming. I like the prominent hi-hats in the drum beat, but that’s not really enough to keep me engaged after a while. The cutesy synth riff at 1:29 works well, but I would’ve liked to see a smoother transition there. The riff seems like it’s building towards something, but it ends up being a bit anticlimactic by 2:09. The outro at 2:51 was nice and dreamy, but overall a bit bland. The atmosphere and sound design here are really cool, and the mixing is solid as well, but the composition could’ve been a lot bolder here. Still, you’re clearly a talented producer. Layering on a more dynamic melody would go a long way towards improving this piece. Until then, keep at it, Equinaga, and thanks for coming out to the NGUAC this year! ^_^

really, thanks for the feedback! what's cool about owning the music, is you can always go back to a song that could've been, and make it the best it can possibly be

that drum beat was sexy

Igive feedback to all tracks for Final at contest i kinda expect pretty good competition.
I have listen to few other of ur tracks and can say you could have done this alot better. Sounds harsh but this track sounds you rushed it.
It has like no structure.
Intro its ok but it feels like its not complete consider at 4s into the song small cap when u change score and chord progression sounds abit off tune.
Progression work is pretty nice.
Break at 1.29 is ok, melody no so great.
Outro also not sure it just flat end 3.29 its like song is missing something.

good work tho but sorry for low score.
But i really like track the voyage that would been pretty nice song as final entry.

anyway gl with contest / TN
