Nikolas,
This is really cool. I think its greatest aspect your piece's ability to really engulf the listener in sound, very atmospheric. It somehow reflects the fragmentation of postmodern thought, and yet manages to connect itself. That said, I feel like despite the amazing sense of direction the piece has...the slow beginning is not boring at all (despite that being a comment i'm familiar with
), there wasn't really a...well, a "point". Thematic material that I could discern was little or nothing, besides a few techniques. Perhaps you'll think its "not my place" to be criticizing you, but hopefully you can accept my opinion
. Perhaps I'm overlooking something, but besides the cool sounds, the entire piece was built around...well, nothing. That was probably intentional, but it just bothers my ear. Purely atmospheric music is interesting, but I find it pointless, not to say the piece was, it was extraordinarily enjoyable, I can't stress that enough, but...phew, hopefully you understand what I'm saying.
Anyway, nice job
Nico
