This song immediately gives a crystal vibe, at the start and at every moment in the song.
The crystal sound, seems out of tune around 1:07 and 1:58 are out-of-tune. I understand if you are just leaning in to that interentionally for the more atmospheric parts of the track. But they should not overlap with the more in-tune segments (2:05).
As a castle, well there are horns, strings and choir in half of the song. The melody at (2:05) fits very well as a royal theme, and is also kinda epic. I wish that type of sound happened more in the song.
As crystal song, yeah, it fits really well. As a castle song, well it seems to vary depending on the segment. Sometimes it's almost there, a great fit, to sounding more like an enchanted cave.
Maybe if you combined this crystal at 1:06 with high or low strings, you could have leaned into a castle theme more often during the song.
A real neat song. 👍
Cool intro, i like how it slowed down and went into something else! I wish the horns at 2:05 were a touch louder. Your bass work is incredible, the bass melody that happens at 2:20 is so good. At the end tho, I feel we didn't need to return to this slow section of the song, especially after hearing some super dope hype melodies. Nevertheless, I enjoyed the song, good work!
I liked the melody line around the 2 minute mark, and also how the drum came in earlier on in the piece- that felt quite natural. Some of the transitions (especially the last one in the last ten to fifteen seconds ish) felt a little quick/unexpected, so I'm wondering if maybe you extend the space between each part or if you use something as a pivot between the two sections? Overall a nice piece which I enjoyed :)
Nice sound with that bowl/water drum for lead - I really loved the supporting bass synth for the second half as well.
