Hello James,

Cool stuff. I've been listening a lot to Slowdive's Souvlaki and newer
stuff like The Joy Formidable recently and I'd say it's shoegazer
allright ;) The drums remind me of old Cure stuff (Faith/Pornography) ,
especially at the end. The vocals are not that distinct but it suits the
track well, maybe they could've been a bit more airy, a bit more
ethereal. And the bass could use some more pronunciation maybe. The
ending is fine to me, maybe it should last a bit longer and with some
effects on the drums. I'm curious on how this track will evolve!

Best,

Jeremy
