A genre very new to me but I did my best

I like the cute, dreamy arpeggios at the beginning. The pads at :19 are a little cheesy, but fit the atmospheric vibe well. The progression pretty slow-paced here, and the mix is pretty quiet. You clearly have a good sense of melody and harmony, and I like the minimal drums at 1:17. That said, I think the piece is missing some higher-frequency tones throughout, and the arrangement/structure is not very advanced. You could’ve done a lot more with the composition here, and I’m not sure the sound design or production quality make up for that, either. It’s a good start. The dreamy mood and cute instruments are both pluses, but I wanted to see you take some more risks with the composition. Keep at it, Walpang! :)

Really good and calming, but I do agree the bass drum is to deep, I’m fine with the snare though

Pretty calming piece, I like that though the synths sound kind of retro, they aren't too harsh.
If this were in a video game, I would expect it either in the menu section or in an introduction phase, like a tutorial to a puzzle game.
There isn't too much of a complex melody, but plenty of new elements every once in a while to keep things going. The drums sounded a little off for me, the kick was too low and didn't fit with the rest of the track for me, and the snare part was a bit too loud.
Other than that, this sounds like the kind of thing the audio portal may have been intended for, as a source of music for the games and animation developers, and it fits in there nicely. Keep up the nice work!

Walpang responds:

Very much appreciated. I agree that drums aren't my forte, and I'll try to work on it.
