The start is very ominous, giving the sensation that something is about to happen. I love the moody bassline, it gives the track a lot of depth. Perhaps the intro is a little lengthy though.

At 2:08 the drums kick in and things get a bit more interesting. I get the feeling of travelling through space, but into mortal danger.

After a brief interlude without percussion, the drums return at 3:32 and it sounds like the music is building up very gradually. However, it just continues much as it did before.

A slight change occurs about 6 minutes in - a high note to break the mould. But the drums continue their stop-start approach, which makes me forget about the slight change.

After 7 minutes the background melody comes to the forefront, and at 7:30 ish a higher melody comes in. However, it's just too similar to what came before.

The track is very minimalist and simple in terms of track progression, but the melodies are quite layered. Sadly it doesn't do a lot for me but I think it has the potential to be phenomenal. As ever, just my opinion.
