interesting track, it gets a little repetitive though. I would change up the last half a little more, maybe just with some more effects or automation of the existing effects, just so it doesn't sounds so much like the first half.

I love the eery atmosphere that you've built all the way through. However, I think the points made above about a heavier sub bass presence and changing up the second part of the tune are spot on. I think a poweful bass with a slowly evolving melody would really drive the tune and could also be the element that distinguishes the second half from the first (ie, upping the tempo, chaning melody). The tune works in its own right, but definitely potential to take it up a level.

Like the mood, but it's quite repetitive. Maybe add some variations, and also some build-up/breakdown elements to give it more structure.

Thanks for the feedback.
Originally it did have a super powerful sub behind it, but I thought it was too much and kind of ruined the eerie mood set by the pads.
Probably going to take all these suggestions and do a lil' VIP of it.

Digging the atmospheric feel.
I think the bass is fine, doesnt need any more sub. This one is pretty powerful as it is. I'd maybe using a softer attack on the bass in the first louder portion, or a longer tail. I like the dynamics, but they feel a little sharp. Maybe sidechain the bassdrum to a compressor/filter on the bass to give it a little more pop with the kick, and leave it a little room. Maybe that with a long descending sub kick-tail in the deeper parts. Give it a little 'droop'.
