I love some of the really crunchy dissonances you got in there. Very interesting shifts between clean and highly colored chords. Nice work man.

Thanks so much for listening lelle! I've been toying recently with the idea of having a pretty romantic sound but getting those additional crunchy chords in where you would expect a resolution to prolong it and then to maybe make it modulate. I find that it results in a lot of interesting tonal possibilities.

I liked your use of augmented harmonies! Always effective when promoting harmonic ambiguity.
