1st clip is really enjoyable! I like the melody and vibe you've got going here. The low end is fighting between bass and kick. There's this high string which could be a little bit louder if you ask me. I enjoy how the sounds keep moving the whole time. Apart from the low end stereo bass and kick the separation is great!
2nd clip is okay but I prefer #1 by far. The bass needs dampening and the beats could be a bit more upfront. Not sure what else to add on this one in comments.
Nice tension starting in the beginning. Bit of an oldschool ibiza vibe. Honestly if the drum section is polished this and maybe a bit more sophisticated synth instead of the one on top of the piano now and you have a great piece. Conceptually you've nailed it if you ask me. Very enjoyable. It's all chosing the sounds now to sell it well.

Did some minor updates on this. Still need to fix the too deep bassline. It needs overtones or something similar to come across well on speakers, it's just too deep. Would work well on big installations already I presume. Extremely happy with the second time the pads come into play, hence me sharing it again although it hardly changed. This is the first time I created an enjoyable piano roll. Took me almost 26yrs to get here apparently but I'm enjoying it which is all that matters.

Thanks for that ST! Yea, I have been re working this track and the more I do, the more I am liking it. As mentioned, all the layers were practically thrown in but will present when it gets more polished.
Ok, so your No Bounds WIP.
A few questions with this. I fired this up loud,on purpose. Granted, it was done in a 9x10 room with absolutely no treatment. Now then...
When this piece initially hit, I got a ton of distortion bouncing off the walls from that kick and there is this little shaker/knocker that sounds like a ringing "brush" (if you will) that really rattled the innards of the room.
With that said however, at the :35 mark it starts changing the dynamics in the room and envelops more as it progresses through till the kick hits back at :48 mark and then all of a sudden, it just blooms. I cannot explain it and you would have to hear it for yourself but the best way I can describe it is that it simply just seems more "developed" in tonality and very smooth with no rattling at all in the room.
now, not sure if this was the feedback you were looking for however, I can definitely notice a change in the "dynamics" of the sub/kick.
Composition is on the money and the arrangement is what I have come to expect in your tracks which is very fluid,full tones.
