Hi, Hartmut. I really enjoyed your tracks. Both have great dynamics and
strong dramatic tension: you had my attention 100%!

I was reminded a little of music like Pink Floyd's "Careful With That 
Axe Eugene" and maybe Can. Which is a good thing :-)

re Thorsten's comment about "vocals shy in the mix" on "Befall" : at 
times the vocals seem at the right level,  at times a little quiet.
there is a quite wide dynamic range. You want to keep some of this, but 
i would try compressing the vocals and have them a little louder.
And maybe lose the reverb so that they sit right at the front. At the 
moment they are having to compete with the guitars a bit.
maybe some reverb on the guitars to make them sit back.
(just my quick thoughts, i know your work is not finished :-) )

I am looking forward to hearing the final versions: be sure to let us know!
