I love everything about this! I really like how you gave each instrument its own little personality and purpose.
The storytelling is top-notch and every section has its own emotional intent.
This track offers some of the best variation I've ever seen in a soundtrack. It may even have been a bit too much, but since you stayed in the same culture, I think it's fine.
Looks like you followed my advice in terms of limiting. Thank you! ;)
Well, from my point of view, your chances of winning this thing are pretty damn high, and to be honest, I would be glad to loose against something like this. :)
Wonderful work!
