I make these for practice as I'm dipping my toes into ambient music. There are two tracks as of posting this. They aren't related, there isn't any theme I'm aiming for, it's just pure playing around in Ableton Live and seeing what works.

Feel free to give feedback, I encourage any criticism you think might help me. Thanks!

I like these a lot. I wish they were longer. I lean toward the darker vibe, so the second one is my favourite, but the bubbling LFO in the first one was tasty.

Ayy, thanks! I actually thought to keep them under 10 minutes because I felt people wouldn't give it a listen otherwise. But that's nice to hear, then! I'll loosen up and take them further.

I hear bubbling LFO in the second one (insect-like). Gives it an organic flavor I enjoy.

Would need more elaborate arrangement to justify lengthening them IMO. Is it worth the bother? You may enjoy arranging though - just saying that to me they sound perfect as they are (although I only listened on phone speakers so far, but your getting drone music to sound good on lofi is an achievement in itself).

The first track scratched my spectral itch (though the track isn't strictly spectral). Well balanced tonally. My 2c as a listener is to ask for more new tracks.
