the beats are great, but as always, its the synth sounds and melodic compositions that really sell me.
on my first listen, the arpeggio-type breakdown really struck me as too melodramatic, and i felt it really broke the mood of the first part, which is delightful. On second listen i might step down from that decision a little bit. it feels more natural this time around. a quick compositional fix to something like that, though, might be a textural or single note slow build up to that sort of 'flood of notes' you create. a simple addition like that could be really unobtrusive and also help the flow a bit.

but i'm really just nitpicking-- regardless, i love it.

that's the kind of nitpicking i'm after....good advice, thanks.

Jesus. way too much on the low end. But I love the delicate melodic plucks/staccato notes, and I actually like the arpeggiated parts. Its hard to pick out other parts though with the bass so loud...its really in your face.

I think that the song does seem to drift from idea to idea..there doesnt seem to be any motif or central theme, or hook, whatever. I am not sure what you are going for..but overall I really like the melodies.
