This is a little gem you’ve created. The ambiance worked really well with your guitar tone and choice of genre and creates quite an ethereal feeling that fits the given theme. The structure of your song feels very gentle and dynamic flowing from cloudy distorted peaks into those beautiful calm and clean valleys. While the sounds are good, it at times feels a bit to much on the gentle side and feels like the whole song takes a bit more distance from the listener. Specially with bass, distorted guitar and the leads in the more climactic parts could have used some more dirt (not necessarily more distortion but also maybe some more push in the mids and higher mids between 1k-2k hz for the guitars and 300-400 hz for the bass) that would liven them up more and make them a bit more present. But, besides that nitpicking this was just an awesome experience. Keep it UP!

Thank you a ton, Einel!!
And thanks for leaving feedback as well. Yeah I'd probably agree with what you said here. I think I originally had the sections a little more balanced volume- and dynamics-wise, but I was worried that the effect wouldn't be as impactful. That second point is an interesting idea, hadn't thought about that before. I'll give that a try next jam.
Thanks for taking the time to listen :)
