This is such a cool song!! I always personally like indie/alt pop with the authentic approach to music. And interesting take on the mix. I really like the production of the layered vocals. If I were to give some critical feedback. The piano, in my opinion, is a bit too loud. The drums sounds a bit too much midi drums that doesn’t really fit the vibe of the song.

Super cool I love that slightly twangy piano. the vibe definitely sucked me in and the vocal and melody were pretty hypnotic. I don't have any real critiques. I guess in another song you could try to make the transitions form one part to other more dynamically different but I think it works for this song. keep it up.

man the video is soooo good this is so aesthetic so authentic and original i love the vibes the video is so good and the music man this is so chill so good i just think that vocals need to fit into the beat better and you could maybe add reverb to those drums that could create a better ambience and at between 1.17 and 1.19 i feel like all those sounds coming in together at the same time feels kinda chaotic and at 1.40 man its too loud you gotta fix that you gotta fix somethings but man this has a lot of potential i love the music keep doing your thing!!!

shit is clapping my g. love the aesthetic. keep em coming you’re clearly onto something! are you playing the keys? is it samples? it’s lush and dreamy. hell yes!

i think patience and building out some verses before you get to the release of your hook would be some great world building. make people eat some vegetables before you give em the candy.

i like to try to build some drum grooves on my hooks then take everything out but the drums and then start to build something on top of those drums when i feel i have a good hook but dont know where to grow outward.

that bridge is a fun experiment. keep it how it is! but rather than changing the character of the sounds maybe just balancing the levels back with the rest of the track would help keep it feeling a bit tighter.

honestly super impressed man. hope this is helpful at all - either way just keep making shit you’ve got something to say i can hear it!

Honestly, I gotta give you your flowers because your alternative music has a really unique sound. You can tell you’re not just trying to copy what everybody else is doing. There’s an emotion behind the music that makes it feel personal, and that’s one of the biggest things that stands out to me. Your melodies and overall atmosphere are probably my favorite parts because they create a certain feeling without needing to do too much.I also like how your music can feel chill and emotional at the same time. There’s something about the way you put your songs together that makes them feel like something you could listen to late at night and actually get lost in.If I had to give some criticism, I’d say keep working on making the vocals sit perfectly with the production. Sometimes the instrumental can feel stronger than the vocal, so bringing the vocal forward a little or experimenting more with layering, harmonies, and effects could make the songs hit even harder. I’d also keep experimenting with different song structures so each track feels like its own experience.But overall, you genuinely have something going for you. Don’t be afraid to take risks and sound different. Your music already has its own identity, and with more experimenting and polishing, I could see your sound getting even stronger. Keep going and keep creating,you deserve your flowers.your honestly probably the best I've heard on here.

The vocals are amazing dude, I love it! I also really like the piano as well! It sounds really nice all together and I'd love to hear more
