Just a sketch for something in the 6th mode of the harmonic minor. I forget what it's called and don't have time to look it up right now.
I have a sample pack called "Abstract Beats" by Code Sounds. They are 4 bar drum/percussion/noise bits that I'm using as a basis for all my tracks. A preview of the pack is available here:

Constructive criticism is always welcome. Tell me all about it!

That's quite a heartbeat holding this together. The layering of instruments is nicely done. I'm about as far away from really understanding how these are constructed as you could get, but I can tell when something clashes, and this hangs together well and gives an atmospheric feel, first a little touch sinister, but it moves through that to a more intense and edgy feeling, and comes out the other side, like walking out of an alley in NYC. It was really interesting. I enjoyed it.

You meld the acoustic and electric tones very well. This opens with a suspenseful feel and I wondered about the title, but once it gets going it has a fresh optimistic feel that fits the title nicely. #listeningskirmish

Cool big beat and groove with lots of melodic and somewhat melancholy riffs drawing the listener in to a really introspective space. I like the atmosphere this creates. Very cool!

Interesting use of an acoustic guitar with electronic music. The kick really drives the beat whilst the music seems more relaxed. Nice.
@stuartbenbow Feb 2022
Well outside my knowledge base, but I really like the tonality and sonic textures you used in this. Cool groove.

Very good, nice move between parts, holding that back beat! Good track. Modern cinema music!

Wow, this is a journey! Nice job. I guess it shows that beginnings take you many places. I like all the various changes in it.
@chickenjail Feb 2022
Ah, cool! I like the modal vibe here.

Nice changes through the song as it grows from the beginning. Exellent concept from beginning to end!! Nice work on the skirmish!
