This was a cool piece to listen to! Not really in my wheelhouse, but I see the appeal!

I really like how you applied the rule-breaking component to this - I think it really helps keep the momentum going, and I enjoyed trying to count beats/tempos in the different sections. I also found that the contrast between the sections was really solid!

Some others have already mentioned some of the repetition with the higher pitched melody, and I would probably agree to an extent. I don't dislike the idea of repetition in some sections (as my submissions has quite a bit of that lol), but I think it could've helped if some of those sections were not stretched out quite as much as they were, IMO.

The section at ~ 3:35 was probably my personal favorite because it was such a nice contrast to the faster paced sections preceding it. I think I would've wanted the buildup to go right into this section instead of dropping down and building up again. Maybe that's a genre thing that I'm unaware of, but I think this would've been something I'd do to better introduce a contrasting section that's as cool as yours was, but also still maintain a level of repetition in the lead parts. Hopefully that makes sense!

Thanks for sharing, and keep up the great work :)

Thanks for listening and for the accurate feedback. I think your comment helps me understand clearly what the issue with repetition is. It is true that in certain genres repetition is conventional, but since that's not my target, it makes sense to discard bars that are almost exactly repeating the previous ones. The second build up is a valid example, as it extends the wait for the breakdown without really adding much. Thanks again :)
