Soothing, calm track
Although I have not heard the "original" Endless Space yet, I have to say this is a really soothing track, the synth work is masterfully done. I can feel some "spacey" aura, just spinning away in some empty galaxy, but I must say the pad is a little thin in some parts, and I heard a dissonance chord somewhere in the track. Also the entry of the second lead synth goes well in harmony with the first, and the drop in the first synth is very calming. However, I think all that is left to do is to make the hi-hats a bit lighter and have more reverb to it. Also I think the second synth could benefit from a reverb and delay.
A well done track I must say.
