Love the waveform. Simple but satisfying. For using only one chord I really love that it was an add9, cant go wrong with that lol. Nice work!

At first I thought the waveform was the default one that Soundcloud puts on tracks sometimes. The fact that it is the real waveform is super neat!

I like the atmosphere you built and the notes that play are nice but I think its missing something. If this were part of a larger set of songs then I think this would be great but on its own as an individual song it feels really basic.  

In general I think that either having a second track with more variance or finding a way to add more variance to this track would benefit it a lot.

yeahhh, as I mentioned to a couple other commenters down below I didn't really have as long as I'd have liked to work on this one so was a little undercooked compared to what I'd have ideally done but I just really wanted to try and do something with the theme as it was a very cool one.

thank you for listening and I'm glad you liked what's there, will be sure to listen to and rate your entry!

This sounds really nice, but feels more like a one shot or a pad more than a fully composed track. I do like how the waveforms shape up to form what I hope you intended to be artwork for the cover of this project.

Thank you, I only had a couple hours to get something done for this so I would have liked to develop it a bit more but didn't really have time, though I probably wouldn't have added much more as I wanted to try something very minimal.

Did really wanna try and get something done though as the theme is very interesting.

And yeah I took the waveform of a few bars of one of the instruments and tiled it for the artwork, was just something I could do quickly but I like how it turned out.

Will listen and rate your entry when I get a chance.

really cool, very silent hill sounding. otherworldly. would work well in a soundtrack as ambient music, just would have liked to hear more happening.

thank you, I only had a couple hours to work on this so it was a bit less fleshed out than I was hoping, but I did want it to be quite minimal and found the theme very interesting so really wanted to try getting something done for it.

Will give your entry a listen and a rate when I get a moment
