This is one of the biggest pieces I have ever written in my life. It took me 3 months to write this.

It would be nice if you could tell us more about how your piece is structured or name specific sections you would like to hear feedback on.

I really like the intro with the sudden chromatic shift and the iv-I resolution in the introduction. Also, I am quite fond of the bluesy section in the middle and the more calm sections. Then again, the intermittent sections somehow remind me of videogame music with their harmony quite different from the common practice period and the (MIDI) brass, but in a good way, I might add.

What I think does come sudden and unexpected is the ending. After the chromatically shifting arpeggios and the four-note motif traded between the instrument groups, the ending is rather surprising. Also, did you check the instrumentation? Transposing instruments and winds and brass are my kryptonite, so I could not tell whether it is fine or not.

It is definitely a unique and nice piece, hard to pigeon-hole. Structurally, it works better than the first piece you posted here("Bad Deads"). Keep composing.
