I liked the beginning, the movements are very good, but in the middle and end I look forward to variation and better driving. But I liked your music! And mix I think it works better if you review the dynamics and see that too much reverb is too much to use then use it with more sense and use it to condition the development of that idea. And I would also use the initial idea to have more variation or return at some point and actually use the theme that appeared in the rest of the song but develop it. I liked your music! Congratulations!

It’s a pretty tone and I like the effect from the chords and the reverb. It’s fine as it is, and there were some opportunities for some accent with some very light high notes. It reminded me much of the Ocarina of Time mythology cut scenes.

I love that arpeggio opening leading into the dissonant chords. my favorite part is from 0:25 - 1:00, the chords with delay pair really well with the bouncy melody and makes it sound really nice! My only critique would be that at times the chords can sound muddy because they are layering over each other. Other than that, great work.

I love that nice, crunchy arpeggio opening, it's amazing! It feels very 'particle-y', and I wonder if you could incorporate it more into the rest of your composition. For example, you could use a variation of it as accompaniment in the left hand while the right hand is playing those echoed chords. I think it would be a great supporting element to those heavy chords you have playing throughout, and help diversify the texture of your music.

To add to Jofes' comment, when you use Delay then lower notes can get kinda muddy and weight the composition down a bit.
also when using clicky keys the delay can amplify the clickiness which can make it kinda "hurtful" listening to

You can Filter out the lower frequencies on the Delay's channel (if you used parallel effect) and EQ the "hurting" frequencies to make the tone of it a bit more pleasant to hear.

other than that keep on going!

The echo is so cool but you just kept hitting the notes once it hit 25 seconds which would cut off the echo! 

I think if you had just let it sit for a while with the ambient notes I heard throughout then it would be a really atmospheric piece, but as is it feels claustrophobic.
