(lol, look at me try to speak norwegian)
Anyways, I've followed you for years, Waterflame. I've become a big fan of yours and a semi-stalker (though we are across the world). Your latest sets of songs have allowed me to spark some seriously thought out feedback for you.
I think this song speaks volumes to a very deep style. Each note has some sense of balance yet lies within a chaotic order of things. The concept of intangible, yet noticeable, lyrics within a song is something to expand on. I've slowed the song down in tempo and you can clearly hear lyrics, but at the same time, you cannot. I think it's something you should explore more. I've always been a big fan of your dark themes but this new style of synthesized voice is incredible. Village Up North is another example of these techniques.
I know you are a man of constructive criticism, and I kindly hope you take it to heart and not take offense. I only offer my opinion, for what it's worth.
While there are some awesome ideas within this song, I feel it lacks luster. Maybe because it was made out of sheer inspiration, but the introduction stems way to long and the whole thing seems to build up to something that never comes. I think it is a brilliant song nonetheless.
Keep up the work and let me know if there's anything I could ever do to help ya!
