Perfect for relaxation (except towards the last minute or so) and gives it a nice night time mood, like Xtriua said! :)

Lubloom responds:

I was trying to go for a more relaxing feel on this one, so I'm happy you think that! Glad you liked it :)

came back to this, forgot how much of a banger this is. the perfect balance between chill and energetic is what I like about this so much.

Lubloom responds:

Thanks a lot! Glad that you enjoyed it. I've been experimenting with similar stuff recently so I'll probably make something like this again in the "near" future :)

Excellent melody, but the drop lacks a bit of power. Wish you a good success for the contest!!

Lubloom responds:

Yeah I agree, so I'll be doing something with a little more power in the drop for my next piece. Thank you very much! :)

I like the atmosphere at the beginning. It has a very dreamy and pensive vibe. Nice and spacious mix and good use of reverb during the first minute or so. It’s rather slow to progress, though, and by 1:20 or so I’m really itching for some more textural fill and melodic content. You have a good sense of harmony and flow, but the piece lacks a strong sense of direction sometimes, as the pacing is very slow. Instead of having a sense of continuity for long stretches of time, I’d suggest doing more with phrasing, dynamic contrast, and filtering. The mixing and mastering is pretty solid, and the sound design is refreshing. My main problem here is that the piece needs more shape and variety. Keep at it, Strykur! ;)

8/10

Lubloom responds:

Thanks man! I agree with what you said, I had quite a bit of creative block when making this so I didn't really know what to do with it. I'll take those suggestions on board!
