I like the airy pads at the beginning, and the chord progression kinda reminds me of "Holy Night." :D The piece is a bit slow-paced at times, but I like the blissful mood and cutesy synths in the upper range. I wish the drums were a bit more prominent in the mix, especially the hats at 1:30 or so. You might even consider transposing them up an octave. By 2:45, the texture is really coming together well, although at some point I would've liked to hear some more dynamic melodic content. Still, nice job with the sound design, harmonies, and mixing. ^_^

thanks a lot for the detailed review, it helps me a lot :) also the opening chord progression indeed sounds a bit like Silent Night because I started working on this song right before Christmas
