    You created a very pleasant ambient sonically. Just the right mood for lazy Sunday here.

    If it is a work in process, I can suggest that you sparingly add some variety with harmony, maybe repeat the cycle on IV(C) , add some sus chords and then V.. but not too much - nothing too jazzy, as IMO aesthetically it should remain as it is :bow: (visuals inc)

    Quite nice. I'd find it useful to know what exactly is in progress, or process, like this sub is called. Is it a H.I.P., an A.I.P., a M.I.P, or a V.I.P. (harmonics, arrangement, mix, video)?

    I'd say it's simple but straight. Sadly, arrangement is what I struggle with the most, too. Veeery noobish 'suggestion', at 2:13 you're repeating that first part from 0:33 in the same way (other than at 1:23). Maybe add or drop an instrument there to create more tension. I'd at least try to mute the bass or the drums and see if that works. Or maybe change the drum pattern. I think 2:13 is the typical time in the arragement where something new should happen.

    Have you already tried muting or changing the drum pattern?

    Maybe another member has a better idea?

    I enjoyed the vibe but then it quickly got too repetitive.

    At first, I was hoping this was some kind of a Boards Of Canada/Avalanches inspired effort where you have taken some obscure samples but I'm guessing it's all original parts?

    I think the arrangement is broadly OK, but without some new parts, it would probably say all it needs to say with 90 seconds removed.
    Alternatively it's already naturally quite lofi sounding, so some sprinkling of lo-fi FX samples wouldn't feel out of place and would add some extra interest.
