This has the nice feel, actually rather more like you just arrived at the nasty level the way in super metroid from '94 you have reaching the tippy top of Norfair but not the screaming fast allegro.  I will say, some suspense movies, that's all the warning you ever get before you have to deal with the world-ending problem.  So it's still finely within the mandate.  It just reminded me more of that then necessarily the home stretch.  Otherwise the production is top notch.

Amazing stuff. I already listened to this before the rating period started and I already thought it was a real banger, so this might be my fourth listen now as I finish this review. I am just a sucker for so many of the things you used that I might be partial in my judgement, but it is not only because of great selection of synth wide sounding pads, choirs and strings, but because of the moment you chose to made them kick in and the fantastic growing of the tension. The "drop" and the section from 1:00 onwards is just brilliant: beautifully eerie and dark and ominous and aggressive. The lead sound cuts through the dense soundscape like laser through diamond (and I'll stop getting disgustingly low grade poetic here right now). I also have a soft spot for slightly distorted out of tune piano, and your usage here works fantastically well. And that's it I will stop praising your track for today.

Bandlab!!!, This is my first time coming across someone who uses bandlab, would have to hear your feedback on its work flow and access to instruments. i believe it is a cloud based daw, correct?

the beat at the beginning definitly creates tension and anxiety.
would have loved to hear reverb or echo in that water drop to create a sense of space. the texture has reverb so the dry water drop makes me think the camera in front of the leaky sink or cracked test tube. while the liquid version of the virus is dripping on the ground. From this scene the virus could become air borned, get stuck to the bottom of someone's shoe, or maybe the virus is enroute. So many possibilities. which is good. i'm think as an intro/theme song to dexter but instead the main character being a serial killer, he is a chemical biologist, maybe working during WW1 or working for hitler on experiments but digress. Stepping away from film and into games, i could definitly see this as part of an intro sequence to a game. Great job!!!!
