Well, there's another track I would like to have C&C for.
It's supposed to be an intro music, as ambient, quiet and non-disturbing as possible.

So tell me did I succeed or does it annoy ears?
Is it way too simple or vice versa, not so ambient after all?
Maybe it could be improved somehow?

I've had a listen to the track, and I enjoyed it.

The largest critique I have regarding the song is that it's somewhat formless - which is to say not that it is disorganized or badly designed, but for some reason it doesn't feel very tangible - or at least that's the feeling I got from it. I think that this is largely due to the lack of percussion, or notable rhythm in the song. This could probably be worked around by adding in some drums, (Something that isn't too heavy, just something to keep people on track, working with your dulcimer-esque instrument) or something else that would asssist in carrying the rhythm a little more, perhaps around 1:10? There's not much by way of variation in the track, so by adding something new here and there, I think it'd work rather nicely.

It succeeds extremely well in being unobtrusive - it could easily float along the background in a game, but I would almost say it's more suited to background music as it is than that of an intro... depending, of course, what is happening during said intro. It feels somewhat science-fiction-esque to me, which may or may not be what you were going for. With an idea of what it will be accompanying, it'd probably be easier to pin down what exactly would help the track.

Still, I do like it. Hopefully, I've managed to convey some of my thoughts to you in an intelligible manner. I'm afraid it's late, and things don't always make as much sense outside the ol' noggin.
