I probably spent way too much time on this, and I'm not sure it turned out the way I intended, but any comments are welcome.

Great job! Beautiful composition
and the production is very fitting.

Overall a nice effort.
I was finding it a bit vague as it kept hinting that the track was going somewhere then it slid off in another chordal direction. Strong musical elements popped up now and again but didn't take a lead. But after about 3/4 of the piece I started to get use to the dreamy, inconclusive nature of the track and liked it. I think there is a great atmos/filmic track in there waiting to get out, but as you said, you have invested loads of time already. I would look to the bass end to shore up its foundations. Not overpower it with bass but make it confirm what is going on with the higher string section. I would also question the use of that strong wind instrument - duduk? Unless it breaks free and does a fab solo then it is a distraction.
7/10 for Midnight Oasis. Congrats.

Beautiful Orchestral Major Motion Picture Soundtrack. I'm trying to get past my phobia of reverb, and this score helps. It's lush, complex, and sweeping with its grandeur.
Be Proud.

REmmet - Enjoyed this - very lush and cinematic with no strong element but lots of story to tell - Very DARk (almost scary ) in places. Seems to be well recorded. Depending on what this is used for will determine the writing. IF this is a standalone piece it would be nice to have something come out (solo or have a stronger melody theme) at some point,but as I said, it depends on how the piece will be used.

Thannks for sharing! - Del
