It's always a little sad when so many people read a topic but nobody responds.

The link in your first post seems to not be working for whatever reason. Fixed link:
https://soundcloud.com/copperscreen/eggshell-fsol-cover

I think this is a great piece. There are still ways to improve it, however. Especially the start felt a little forced, where the sounds did not seem to fit together. It seems to be slightly too dissonant in some places. Although that might be on purpose, it does make me feel a little odd.

But overall, great track!

thanks for your feedback!  yeah I forgot to link it to the track specifically xD

the 'hairdryer' scraping beat at the beginning is supposed to sound out of time since it's an ambient track with minimal rhythm, but i'm not so sure about the dissonance; the trouble is a lot of music I actually listen to seems to sound dissonant to others, so I think i've got SO used to it now that (while composing) I fail to differentiate between what would sound concordant to others and what wouldn't lol :(
