Some really interesting and unique combinations of genres here that work really well, with lots of interesting ideas :) You could be more confident in developing the textures you use in the more subtle moments, and also look into libraries like Spitfire Labs (their free), as such sample libraries would really help bring out the sense of atmosphere you creating even further. Great work!

Description
This soundtrack combines elements of baroque clavier works with breakcore drums and metal rhythm guitar.
It is composed for the imaginary game "Chernobyl's Basement" which takes place in present day Chernobyl. it is about a task force that goes into a cave in Chernobyl to cull a population of sentient animals mutated by radiation. All except for you, the player, die, cuz plot armor.
The goal of the game is to escape the cave, killing everything foreign and hostile along the way, and I believe this soundtrack encapsulates this.

Theme
How does it fit the theme?
The cool, chilling, electronic arpeggios of "Limbo of confusion" juxtaposed with the aggressiveness of the French harpsichord and the rhythm guitar create a sense of chaos, confusion, and hopelessness similar to being lost in an unfamiliar place. In this instance, a cave under Chernobyl dug by sentient mutants.
