Ok, I really liked the jazzy piano riff, but by 00:40 I had a mixed opinion.
And then! the little synth panned left entered, and I started to really like everything.
I like the harmonic complexity! It's a bit like what Animals as Leaders would sound if they moved from heavy metal to indie electronic.
The mastering is ok. The ideas thrown in are nice.
BUT the bass is annoying! In both pieces... I'd suggest trying different masterings for it, different EQs or something. It really hits my ears like nails, and it's a shame, both ideas are sooo good!
In retrospect, I absolutely love the first piece, the second one is ok. Not as complex as the first, and that's what I really liked about the first. It's exactly what it's supposed to be, it's true to itself, and that I wholly appreciate!
6 stars for the first, 4 for the second, average is 5 stars, lol.
