I like the fade-in at the beginning and the rich, baritone vocals. The mix holds up quite well despite the plethora of reverb in the texture. The sound design is a bit generic, but also blends together well. The vocals get rather repetitive after a while, but I like the thick atmosphere of the middle third of the piece and the melodramatic transition into 2:09. The variations on the main melody at 2:33 are a nice way of wrapping up the piece, although the vocals are barely discernible in the mix during that section. Overall, this is a punchy and catchy track with some strong production quality and progression. Some more variety in the harmonic content and some more inventive sound design would help take it to the next level. Keep at it, JustTop! ^_^
