Pretty cool atmosphere, a bit dark souls like but toned down, I think its nice the first minute then we're stalling a bit. You can also add some EQ at some point to the percussions and transient to make it pop a little more if you want to create more tension later on instead of keeping it the same, you did it at some point with the doublebass but I think it can be more in your face. But if we want to keep it ambiant it will need to be subtle. I think the overall mix can also probably get a little boost in dB. But thats pretty good overall , good job :)

Description
Wrote this track for the Impressions Composing Jam, not ambient in the music sense in that the notes change more than once a month but I feel it fits into the umbrella of video game ambience in that it could exist as the background atmosphere to a setting.
First time getting involve in one of these things and only just found about about this one with a day to go so this was written across a frantic afternoon/evening.
I'd love to hear any thoughts and criticism but just generally keen to be involved in the general. If you want to get in touch (would love to just chat and make new friends) drop me a message on my Instagram linked at the bottom or email me on archiegaultmusic@gmail.com.

Description of Setup (Optional but recommended)
All made using Eastwest libraries (Mainly Hollywood Orchestra and Hollywood Fantasy) except the mandolin which I recorded (badly) live.
