I agree with charystuj, that part at 0:40 is a really magical moment. Those arpeggios give an other-worldly space vibe which I think fits with the colorful neon environment in casinos. This is kind of a random reference, but I imagined this track fitting really well with the environment in the level “Invasion at the House of Horrors” from Kirby and the Forgotten Land. I really love the part leading up to 1:35 where the cymbals sparsely play with the crescendoing electric guitar and then it builds back up to the full sound.
Constructive feedback: The one part that I think limited me from completely getting lost in the groove was the extent of your swing on your hi-hat which made it feel a little stop-start-y/limpy. I think this track probably would work better without a swing rhythm and would benefit maybe from an open hi-hat/crash cymbal on the off-beats with the snare and a consistent straight 16th note groove on the closed hi-hat.
Overall this was a really fun track to listen to and made me wonder if there are games with space casinos that this could groove in! Nice work and thank you for sharing!
