The percussion, instrumentation, composition... ambience. You nailed it. Everyone in this competition should be looking at your track for an example of how ambience is done. I want to hear it mixed/mastered more in-your-face, with high contrast stereo imagining, and overly produced dynamics, because it deserves it. I was extremely impressed when I heard your progress in the discord channel and am delighted with your final work. Beautiful and evocative!
