It's a strange sallad of different melodies, but really nice ones. It has a nostalgic feeling to it, although I heard it for the first time not long ago. I like a lot of old CNCD mods, but this is one that I listen to more often than most others.
Technique, Arrangement, Composition (7/10)
The composition technique is simple because it's a 4-channel mod. The structure / repetition pattern is typical for old mods. It doesn't sound restricted by the format's limitations though, but very natural for the style.
Development (9/10)
Very lovely. There's nice variation and development, but i'd still complain about the suddenness of the middle part.
Creativity (8/10)
Difficult to judge. It's much more "silent" than most mods i've heard. I think it's harder to compose with this style than more rhytmic music where you can follow the chord progressions over and over again. The melodies themselves are nothing unheard of, basic major/minor scales in 4/4 rhythm.
Enjoyment (10/10)
This has become a classic for me. It has variation and some catchy melodies. Maybe because of them I like to listen to this every now and then, never in a loop though.
