I like the smooth atmosphere at the beginning. The piano sounds a bit harsh in the mix, though - I might suggest using an equalizer to knock down some of the treble-range tones down a peg. The pad slides at :19 and :37 are really cool, and I love the relaxed mood and the rhythmic syncopations in the percussion. The production quality is solid, although the piano and other harmonic instruments could’ve had a tad more room to breathe after the bass comes in at :59. The harmonic content here is very repetitive, though, and at some point I would’ve liked to see you vary the main riffs of the piece or otherwise give the piece a stronger sense of progression. Still, the haunting mood and airy sound design are really nice here. Keep at it, Rilo15! ^_^

Excellent atmosphere! I love this

so sick. such atmospheric samples mixed with punchy percussion meshes incredibly well. also love that subtle blip on beats 1 and 4 bcuz it ties the more light samples and heavy drums together really nicely

Good work!

Sounds like something Fat Jon would do, minus the swing he typically puts on his drums.
