It reminds me of the music background music of old space shooters, and that's awesome.
Thanks for the feedback! That's more or less what I was going for, with the whole haunting thing. As for the synth drowning out the vocals, I can see what you're saying there. Eventually I'll go back and fix it, maybe tweak some things here and there, but I may leave that until I've built up enough material to make a full length album, or maybe EP. In all honesty, my youtube and soundcloud accounts are kind of like my filters for feedback, so I can go and fix things when people give pointers and feedback. I'll try to release a song as perfect as possible, but of course, i don't have producers or editors, so people like you (listeners, fans, etc.) are my filter for errors that I may miss in final editing/production.
Sorry for the wall of text, but, long story short, thank you very much for the feedback, and I'll try to get on fixing the problem asap!
(btw, the space-shooters comment made my day, and I literally squee'd when you mentioned the hardstyle kicks! I didn't think people would recognize that!)

cyrricky has some good advice though on what could help tidy it up. That said it doesn't need that much more work as its rather solid so far. The vocals don't necesaarily match the pitch of the vocals but its not a huge deal. Ending is a little weak but i guess that's the point (she's tired!)
Will definitely subscribe to you as I wanna hear more of what you got.
Well, may I first say, thank you for the feedback and the support!
May I also say that what I said to Cyrricky above applies here as well, however, I don't want to burden you with a wall of text, so, I'll keep it short:
I can really see what you are saying there about the synths drowning out the vocals, and, as for the pitch of the vocals, I feel like its "off-ness" kind of adds to the feeling of the song, however, I can see some places where this effect may be a bit strong, so, I'll fix that as well. As for the ending, you basically hit it right on the head; that's exactly what I was going for!
Once again, thank you very much for the feedback and support! Hopefully my new material won't disappoint!
