Made some edits to cope with the too sparse arrangement but removed them for the upload. If I remember I can link to it after the competition is done.
My take on the ending was about just stretching out the bass note to have a more natural decay and, I muted the last bepop on the piano and last strum on guitar. Made it a more musical ending to my ears. Some automation here and there, just on some eq and levels.
