Sirus:
This is interesting. Nice overall sound although I find the lead perhaps a little overpowering.

Intro percussion is perhaps a little too disco for me.

Nice use of break beat.

I think the bottom end is really missing in this track and needs to be brought forward or written as the case may be. I think the sort of low end sounds that would work in this track would be in the style of what you get in Koglin & Dewar - Pushed On if you get what I mean.

The idea is good but I think the track needs more detail as it does sound a little empty. Probably a bass melody and some pad work.

Good job though and it is starting to sound really nice.

Right, onto

Equinox

Nice beggining.
The intro could do with a few more things being worked into it. Just something to make you feel there is a build on the way.

This track is perhaps a little slow to develop for my tastes.

Nice chord change at about the 2:50 mark.

There is a stab in there that spoils the over all atmosphere in my opinion.
Not sure about the false build. The build itself was really good but I felt at that point that I wanted more to happen as not much had been taking place until then.

I think the way the track sounds at about 6:30 is how it should have been early on and you should have built off that.

I know I make some weird comments and I also know that my own style is somewhat lacking, I just hope I don't come across as too harsh.

I do actually think that both these works are very good and have great potential.

cheers
