Great sound design here. I like the water dropping and vibrating squealing quality of the lead. I also think the amount of reverb is very fitting. The beginning of the song with the absence of measure marks and some discordant notes here and there gives a timeless mood. My only critique would be that, lacking contrast, the ears start to grow tired of the aimless roaming with no point of reference to grasp. I understand this can work extremely well as a pure minimalistic ambient, but as a song, elements such as the variation in timbre that appears around the 4 minute mark would be needed earlier to keep interest and a sense of progression.

Quite a simple piece- perhaps some rhythm changes would help with variation? This piece gives off a cool and a bit of a sharp atmosphere, as if I can never truly relax. Nice work!

Modular!!!!!!!!!!!! Love the setup!

Im imagining  walking in a crystal cave where every step creates echoes. and as you walk you hear get accustomed to ambience being created by simply moving in the space. Simple enough to compliment very design heavy game art. Nice Job!
Curious, is the 3 hours reference how long it took to set the patch up?

Nice sound design lots of richness and the delay and verb fill out the spaces in between well!
