Description
At first I wanted to write a composition similar in style to the music from "Celeste". But in the course of writing it turned out to be a soundtrack for the main menu of some dark fantasy game in the setting described in the theme, and I think that it fits the theme more than my original idea.

Nice composition.

My gut for this mix is more reverb to match the sense of space that the piano and the composition evoke.

I feel like I would want some nice female vocals to come in and start singing a melody.

Great work!

All right, sweet minimalist piece. Since you have only two chords, it will help a lot to space and change your chord voicing, keeping in in triad at first works, but the more we listen to it the more we want to spread out. The strings is a nice idea but doing fifth with the melodies doesn't work so well, there is a bit of unvolontary dissonance in the mix. Arrangement is nice we can feel the build up. There is a lot of free strings plugins that can also help playing with modulation and expression to have a better feel of the strings.

Might seem a brutal comment but since its unranked I went all in to give my opinion, so don't be offended it seems alot but its a nice track overall.

Great minimal arrangement with a solid, captivating melody.  I wish the two chords you chose were more harmonically dissimilar.  Adding some relative sharps/flats would create a more dynamic 2-chord vamp.
