How does your song embody the theme "fight or flight"?
I chose to explore the flight aspect of the theme, creating a bass-heavy, synthwave-inspired track that evokes a dangerous chase between predator and prey. The music builds in intensity, moving between frantic pursuit and fleeting moments of safety before culminating in one final desperate escape.

Would you like to receive constructive criticism/advice in the comments?

The dropout after 1:00 was really cool!
It lasted just a bit too long with just the kick though. I think that's mostly a mixing issue, I didn't hear the synth that came in that well on my first listen. Needed to really turn it up to hear it.
Overall you nailed the feeling of danger really well! ๐Ÿ˜

Thank you for taking the time to listen! Yeah, I would have loved to do another couple of mixing passes, but unfortunately ran out of time. Thank you for the feedback!
