I like the soothing atmosphere at the beginning and the crisp drums that come in shortly thereafter. The piece is a little slow to progress, though, and the mix is very quiet. Nice job with the sound design and ambiance, and you had me intrigued regarding the direction of the piece after the quiet section at :56. The piece has a great sense of fluidity, but it also could use a little more structural contrast, especially towards the end. I would’ve loved to hear the atmospheric coalesce into some kind of climactic melodic section, but instead the texture just gradually fades away without any sense of conclusion and resolve. Overall, the sound design, texture, and emotional qualities of the piece are beautiful, and you could really have a top-notch piece here if you flesh out the composition a bit more. Keep at it, SentientZero! :)

Nice and relaxing, and nice effects. The mixing could be improved, because at some moments the beat is WAY to loud compared the the main tune, and could do with some muffling to make fit better, but an excellent piece nonetheless
