Really well done. I know in your message from the artist you're asking for some criticisms, but you made that job difficult. Submit WAV files instead of mp3s if you can? From what I have heard WAV files work better over a broad range of sound systems. More hammered dulcimer please! I mean that is a selflish take on my part, but your use of it pulled me in so much. Your songs progress so naturally and effortlessly, seemingly through harmonic progression and instrumentation.
In Frostbite Fissure try giving your foley drip sounds as much attention and development as your instruments. I think it enhances your track at the beginning but it was is the same seemingly through the whole track so if feels a bit flat in the first swell. Maybe try thinking of it as a musical voice just as any other instrument you use? I don't know if you have listened to The Books before, but I think they do some creative things with sounds that might spark some ideas? I really enjoyed both your tracks and thanks for creating!

Thanks a lot for the feedback!
Yeah, .wav format is the way to go apparently.
It's the first time ever I've used a dulcimer in a composition hahahaha glad you liked it!
And the drops thing, I think you're right, might consider doing what you suggest, it might be so interesting! Thanks for pointing it out.
And no, I'm not familiar with them, will definitely look them up.
Will be seeing you in your comment section! 🤟🖤
