I think you should lose the noise buildup, though. Too many minimalish tracks use that to end the breakdown, and it has been a cliche for a while. I bet you can come up with a better way to build tension.
The vocal thing was funny and a nice touch.

Cool thanks I'm gonna try and take that noise out... I actually added it on my 4th edit LOL. It definitely is cliche.

some great idea's in this, not sure the layout is what I'd want for a track of this sort, second breakdown is probably a bit too long.
I'd bring the flute out a lot more, it's whats adding variation to your melody, yet it's almost hidden behind everything else

Old habits LOL used to be really into progressive like 10 years ago.
Will try out those recommendations. Thanks.

I really liked this dude, would definitely like to hear more of your stuff.
I'd go with Az's advice and make the background flute a bit more prominent. I have no idea what I'm talking about here, so take my advice with a grain of salt...I would also lower the volume on the main melody because it's way too loud in comparison with the rest of the track.

Really cool mix of sounds here, not my usual style but really enjoyed listening (twice). Dynamic and eerily atmospheric.. it should come with Ziyi Zhang leaping through a forest or some shit
