I love those chill pads at the beginning. Very innovative chord progression you have there. The bass added a lot, too. It progressed a little slowly, although I loved it when the drums came in. They were crisp and sharp, if a bit loud. The synth at :49 was a little harsh-sounding, though. I would suggest EQ'ing out some of the highest-pitched tones of it. The next bit with that string synth at around 1:10 was cool too. You introduce a lot of new instruments here and there, and your sense of harmony is pretty good, but this piece lacks significant structural changes which would really give it a more enhanced variety and engagement value. That synth at 1:53 also got a little annoying, probably because of a combination of the repetition and extremely high-pitched tone quality it had. The synth at 2:40 was also quite loud and in-your-face, which I'm not sure is what you were going for given the chill vibe of the beat, pads, and bass. It also couldn't hurt to think a little more about your mixing and production value. Occasionally, it seems that certain instruments were distorted by others, such as the pulsing string synth and arpeggios at around 1:40. Again, you should think more carefully about how you're Equalizing all your instruments. PM me if you have questions about this. Also, I thought the ending was a bit sudden and/or lazy. It at least could've used some reverb to smooth it out a little and make it feel more conclusive. Overall, it's a piece with a lot of potential that's a little rough around the edges. Keep at it, man! ;)
