Forgive the brevity; I did this on paper. If I'm correct, this is the first iteration of your submission -- great, will make a good baseline for evaluating the next piece.

Opening house beat had me primed for some super chill disco, and that looks like what we've got here. One of my favorite genres. Synth lead feels like a modern EDM fusion. Chord progression satisfies -- one of those infinite loop progressions. Smooth as glass. Extra half star.

Obvious synth bass is obvious. I'd have liked some more modulations with that and sharper articulations. Slap bass is super punchy. Synth bass has the proclivity for just laying there in a mix if you don't really watch it.

You may appreciate the free bass synth ABPL from Ample Sounds. Massaged the right way, it does funk and other non-low-tuning genres flawlessly. If you decide to check it out, do also pick up AGML; I haven't used it in a long time, but if I remember correctly, it's a nice Taylor Acoustic.

Now, your arrangement does feel a bit empty with just bass, lead, and drums -- what feels like a drum loop at that. Pretty cool that you whipped it up in a few hours though; efficiency is a thing to be prized in the music business.

My favorite song so far.

Very nice sound

I would say my fave of this track is about "00:57" and onward it really brings that "UNIQUE" sound and really pushes some quality detail within the song, you should have more drops and build ups to give it more variaty through out the whole piece, Here you have an interesting piece, very refreshing and delightful with some unique style about it, a nice tune of sounds here, and it was a pleasure reviewing it, And now that we come to the end here I would like toclose offby saying it was a pleasure with this tune, it was pretty interesting and entertaining at the sametime, hope to see more soon so keep up the good work. So anyways keep up what you are doing and keep making wonderful sounds.
