Hey Mod8,

I dig the track a lot and Howie did a super & tasteful job infusing guitar on this, helps make the tune stand out in my mind and some great sounds including that creamy '80's drive. My two cents would be:
0:39-1:13 = consider having the driving guitar mix it up between 3 and 4 strikes, not just 3 all the time
1:57-2:14 = same as above but varying more like from 2-4-3 strikes or something along those lines would work nicely
2:40 = synth sounds too perfect/robotic/uniform
3:15-3:30 = sounds like the guitar is a little ahead of the beat (maybe), can probably adjust in DAW if so

Anyhow, welcome to the forum and keep posting.

Hi! Not a bad musical theme in an ambient style. Feel free to offer it as a soundtrack for a movie in the genre of science fiction or post-apocalypse.
