While I do usually work on multiple tracks at the same time, to avoid being completely and utterly bored listening to it over and over, I cannot listen to this one anymore. I hoped to get somewhere with it, but nothing remotely interesting is happening there.

It's like putting all the right ingredients into a meal and something really average and bland coming out. Can't win all the time.

Doesn’t sound average nor bland to me heart Keep up the good work!

yeah not average, really dig the sound on that thumpy kick in the second half, I guess it's using sidechaining? goes hard. really nice boards-of-canada-doing-jungle vibes.

while the drums took this piece to a more jimmac sounding space i was really enjoying the drone in the beginning of this track - it was very soothing

Maybe I'm just average and bland, but I enjoyed all of it. 

Extra big smile when the Jimmackian Bass rolled in halfway through tongue

I like this, nice changeup halfway through, and a lot of interesting rhythms and textures

if this is your definition of "average and bland" I think you're doing alright

I can relate to your feelings of frustration and being too deep into work on something and finally having to just let it go, but honestly I think you wound up with a nice tune!

Wow, if this constitutes bland and average, than you really should stay away from my WIP folder, hahahaha... As an outsider who didn't spend hours working on the track, this sounds super fun and interesting! I especially liked the sparkly synth in the background that plays every now and again, especially during the end when it plays almost alone.

oh that's so lovely when the bass drops with full beat, not bland at all(i suppose if you wanted a longer track i craved hearing it modulate in key near the end in my head(either by fifth, or even just everything a whole-tone upward), but that just tells ya it's pretty stimulating for the mind as is) a beautifully self-encompassed journey!

I actually like this a lot. The etheral atmosphere is on point!

You're all just too kind, people! Thanks for checking it out, despite my anti-marketing efforts.

You're selling yourself and this song, and thereby your fans, way too short
This is very good
