I like the synth at the beginning that sounds like a flute. The texture comes together pretty well by :20, and the sound design is really quirky and fun between the heavy snare, slap bass, and flute-sounding instrument. The piece is a little slow to progress, and there’s a tad bit of atonality at around the 1-minute mark, although that might be because of the reverb. I like the riff at 1:15, which came in right as I started to think that there could’ve been more legato elements in the texture. The mix is loud and crisp, and I like the melodies at 2:24 a lot. I think the piece could use a bit more shape throughout. The harmonies and drums are near-constants throughout the body of the piece. An atmospheric breakdown or minimal bridge would really help give this piece a stronger sense of ebb and flow. That said, the mood, atmosphere, sound design, and melodies are all pluses here, and I like the gradual outro, even if it ultimately ends in a fade-out. Keep at it, Shima33! :)
