I like the twittery synth at the beginning and the subtle tempo automations shortly thereafter. There’s a great sense of energy and drive to the texture by around :30, and the texture is really well-balanced between the bass and lead synths. By 1:06, though, the rhythms and sound palette are starting to feel a bit stale, so I’m glad the beat came in at 1:19 to switch things up a bit. The modulation at around 1:55 was another good idea, and the melodies shortly thereafter fit nicely. I’m not a huge fan of the clap sample at 2:14 - it felt a tad sharp and treble-heavy. The more minimal melodies at the breakdown at 2:45 are a nice touch, and I like how the piece ends how it begins (with a tempo automation, that is). The dreamy outro seemed fitting, and overall I really like the composition and sound design of this one. The mixing is solid, too, although the compression on the drums is very heavy in places. Still, you have a memorable track here. Keep at it, Answare! :)
