[Who I Am]

Really dig the intro. I'm not all that great when it comes to creating sliced vocals but I felt I was waiting for the vocals to go somewhere. If that's all that's there for the same then there isn't much you can do but make pitch them up or down and octave every once and a while or make a little "phrase" with another sample. I really like the atmosphere you create with the track.

I'm a beginner so take that with a grain of salt and just keep doing what feels true to you. I do like the track. That's just a suggestion.

If you have the time I just finished my second track so I know there's a lot of room for improvement and I could use feedback from other that have been at this for a lot longer that I have.

That build at 0:45 to 1:00 sounds very Martin Garrix-esque. I feel like the track doesn't have any surprises or keep my attention. It's very linear. The change up towards the end was nice but I believe that you used Gross Beat, or it's equivalent, if you work in a DAW that isn't FL Studio.

Overall it was nice to listen to but I listened to a few of your other tracks and I think this one isn't quite as successful as the others.

If you have the time, please review my track. I definitely haven't made as much material as you but any constructive feedback you have will help me improve.

I really like it. It's very light and well produced. Great job.

0:32 - 1:02 felt strange to me because it just seemed like it was thrown in and doesn't develop your track because it just abandons what you were working with. Right before that the transition you created is my favorite part of your track because it was really unexpected. Even though I felt the 0:32 - 1:02 was out of place the I do believe your most successful transition occurred towards the end of that part into 1:08. Overall I feel your track is successful.

The track has a very ethereal sound to it. The only suggestion I have is that I'm using basic earbuds to listen to your track and at around 2:20 the track pretty much goes silent. I don't get any low end out of my headphones so i'm assuming that's the reason but I just wanted to put that information out there because when it comes to headphones everyone pretty much has a cheap pair but not everyone will have middle range to high end headphones.
