cool tune, very atmospheric, some cool noises.
i feel like your drums could use a little more work from time to time though for a bit more variation.
cheers,
steve.

Whenever I see a title "My new Track", I wonder who the "my" was. I'm not sure if that's more or less effective than "New Track by Atomsplitter", but here I am!
Starts off with some pretty standard-sounding organ/pad sounds, and then at first I'm uncertain about the winds the jump in-- they sound almost like some dude just 'warming up', rather than orchestrated placement. When the drums come in, I'm not sure they match the rest of the track. And then the "warming up" winds tend to stay a bit off-rhythm. The effect isn't horrible, but my ear wanted to hear those winds (pipes? What to call them?) slowly become more and more in time, until they're perfectly-timed. The pad chord changes are also "on" sometimes and "off" other times.
The chaotic sound of the non-drum bit isn't bad in and of itself, but when set against the clinical sound of the drums, the resulting contrast isn't as musically interesting as one would hope. Each time the pads come in "on time", it's like a sense of relief, "Aha! NOW it's all gelling!" But then the rest of the track doesn't gel with it.
I'd like to see you go from the sort of "warming up, tinkering around" vibe that the beginning of the piece has, into a "now we're warmed up, listen to us lock onto one another!!" feeling.
All just personal perspective.
