Good track

It's a good track. The atmosphere it creates is great.
I like the sound samples you used throughout the track. At first we can hear some birds chirping, it seems as if it is a nice and warm day. But the music already foreshadows that there's a storm coming.

Later we can hear the rain falling, the music now creates an almost sad atmosphere. As if the rain doesn't bring relief and doesn't wash away all the sorrow... but it carries sorrow with it.
This impression is strengthened by the fact that we still can hear the rain fall even though the music already faded away.

The ending may be a bit too long though. Or the sound of the falling rain is too low. Maybe it would work better if you not only fade out the music, but also fade in the rain sounds at the same time, so that it seems as if the rain outpowers the music in the end.

Thanks a lot for your review, that was really helpful! Glad you liked it.

Ambient Rainforest

This is the sort of track that you get playing over the videos of the wonderful things about rainforests and jungles, with things like orang-utans hanging around in the trees and then the more active creatures, like colonies of ants busily harvesting a few leaves off a banana tree, to take back to the ever expanding nest.

Wonderful sounds, but I would question the use of the thunder - not every rainstorm has thunder and lightning, so why does this one? It's maybe something a little too powerful for the track, so I would just omit it, as the song is good enough on its own, without the extra gravitas.

I like the rainforest thing lol :) Um about the thunder... hmm... I guess I just wanted to intensify the emotion. I think it has a different effect before and after the song drops out so that's kinda cool i guess. You gave me something to think about...

Thanks for the review

Beauty that invokes wonder..

Thank you for this song.. it's beautiful. I must criticize the repetitive beat, which could have been altered slightly at some point in the song, almost to mimic the varying intensities of rain. Otherwise this is perfect, calming ambiance.
