Welcome back! Interesting piece. I don’t know what your intentions were, but the kick is SUUUUPER loud. I found it difficult to focus on anything else.

Perhaps it should be a SoundOfThunderCloud?

That's the only reason I created an Instagram account (because there was so much inspirational artistic stuff on there that you could only explore if you had an account).
