Sunbuster:   Bad

Overall:

The first part was a bit too hasty for my taste, but the second part was pretty nice.
It had a sort of medieval feel to it, sounded like some soundtrack to an adventure game or RPG. Nice. It could have been longer though, the melody and structure had the potential of at least 3 minutes more of music. 2:15 is not enough to build up a nice ambient soundscape.

The good:

The overall mix was good, as was the sample quality. The use of the instrument synth and the instrument volume envelopes was also good.

The bad:

What disturbs the balance of this track, and thereby the ambient/chilled effect, is the change in tempo after 50 seconds. Especially since both parts of the song basically use the same
melody. I think it would have done the song good to use the same speed throughout the track. And in that case the speed of the second part, as it sounded more fitting than the first part.
Instruments 08 and 09 are not needed, the same effect that is created using these instruments could have been done using instrument 01 and the panning column/effect.
The drums could use more variation,
especially in a track like this where there are very few other elements.
The flute-melody of the second part sounds a bit forced at some points, but that's more a matter of taste.
You could have used longer patterns, that way you'd have more patterns to work with and you wouldn't need to copy/paste so much. This is purely a matter of being lazy or not though :)


the conlcusion

I find it very good that you took a shot the ambient genre, one of the genres at least I find very hard to master well. For your first track (as you say in the parameters box) you show good potential to become alot better. What I would suggest is that you start to experiment with Madtracker a bit more, see what the different effects can do to a sound, and learn to use them in your music. You could try to develope this track (mystic) a bit more, make it longer, use some more fx sounds and so on.
As I said, the potential is there, just don't give up! :)
