I like the voice for sure. The piano seems a bit too muddy imo. It also seems like its ending before it really starts, you could continue building it up

Thanks for the feedback guys

- Nx1 - in regards to the minimal description, this is more in terms of the piano composition - it started off pretty simplistic - it filled out over time and grew and grew, but I think it still carries over some of the aesthetic qualities of minimalist music - it's droney and over time warps and builds to something new - the underlying pads start to create waves and pulses.

In response to the piano: I agree - this is my poor man's attempt at tweaking a cheap sampled piano (it's a $12 piano from puremagnetik)
I have yet to find one that I'm happy with - I would really prefer a nicer piano sample so I don't have to distort and use so much reverb - if you have any recommendations in the $1-200 range, my ears are open!

I really liked it until the kick set in. then it turned into some strange mix of ambient electronica and trance. everything but the kick sounds pretty nice
