Vince, I liked the piece a lot, lots of energy and I was tapping to the rhythm. I felt more release than suspense and tension. I would expect suspense and tension to sort of hang and be more dissonant, something not nearly as nice to listen to.

I am really just an observer for this kind of listing.
Maybe a layman's reaction has some interest still.?
I felt the music had a nice build, and had tension and was energetic.
As music it was well composed and orchestrated, ( kudos for the synth).
The listing mentioned nail-biting suspense. I don't feel it has that.
But I would think that the same people needing the nail-biting suspense would
want to have this shade of the sensation too, so it should be a forward.

Besides, I don't know how universal the musical language for these emotions are,
You seem to be playing it safe here, making music that's very similar to that used for this
purpose before. I guess that is expected and wise.

This sounds awesome!
I think it's more of a Tension & Action, but my knowledge in this area is next to 0.

Are the vocal parts done through midi? If so can you try long notes instead and holding some tension notes?
Dunno just throwing ideas out there.

Awesome work Vincent!

Thanks everyone for taking the time to share your thoughts on this track, I trul appreciate it! I suppose tension and suspense can be interpreted in various ways. I just hope the screeners' interpretation is similar to mine!

Thanks aganin everyone!
