I've had this done for about a month but just kept changing tiny things and working on other projects. (mostly AIM) I've made it better by putting more time into it but I really need to publish some more of my tracks soon. :P
I don't know what genre this is, I just sort of mashed together instruments in parts I liked together, though it is mostly simple electronic instruments.
I feel like I finally got a good feel working percussion into this track, as well as mixing in melodies together. If I did something horribly wrong please tell me.
Enjoy :3

The synths are a little cheesy and generic, but I like the addition of the harp. It actually meshes really well with the smooth 8-bit vibe of the piece. I’m also really enjoying the percussion at around :50. The minimalism gets old after awhile, though. I think you needed some more fill between :50 and 2:00 - pads, mid-range harmonies, or maybe some hi-hats or toms to add some punch to the percussion. Compositionally, this piece is actually pretty strong. You have a good sense of melody and harmony, but the texture lacks fill. I want to see you use the entire frequency range to your advantage at most (if not all) times in the future. The fade-out ending came across as a bit lazy. I didn’t hear any particular problems with the mixing or mastering, so that’s a huge plus.

7/10

Thanks for the review! I didn't know I was progressing so much with my mixing.
