I think I agree with the sentiment that, although the sounds and composition are great, it ends up starting to blur and feel a tiny bit monotonous by the end. A really lovely achievement, nonetheless.

As others have said, the brass is a real highlight, here.

You made a beautiful swing with that synth trombone. I know it's not easy to get swinging sound with synthesizers

Fantastic -- odd, organic, kind of twisted even, but really cool. Good one!

this is really well done. But there is an underlying sense of weirdness - like I am not sure I want to stay in this place.....

Bass part that somehow turns into the melody - nice! Creative. Fun. And great "trombone" solo.

The start of this piece plus the image makes me wonder what could possibly happen here!

Very nice brass sound, and well composed with the brass and bass working together. Plus some nice spooky sound effects! I think it's the music for a detective story where everyone's a ghost.

I will say though that 5 mins is a bit long for me. that bassline makes me feel a bit drunk. I think I'd have preferred the song to be 3-4 mins.

Awesome. I did an OSC track a few years ago, 'Cooper's Dream', aiming for the noir vibe, it now feels like the support act at the Roadhouse from that same David Lynch show 😁 Doffs hat.
