I admit instrumentals often get me drifting into lyric ideas... the changes in yours kybosh that tendency and kept me alert.This is one I`d have to employ the chord mapper to get what`s going on, especially bits I like and might "borrow"! The melodic guitar keeps it together; the drums a little heavy for my taste.

Changing of the modes is a good way to change the mood of the song; Ionian (major) is "happy", Phrygian is "dark", Mixylodian is "happy, but serious". Enjoyed how your song took advantage of these mood swings by changing the mode. The ending on Idim (Locrian) definitely gives a bit of unnerving feel and I think makes the song more memorable not resolving on the familiar major chord (from Ionian or Mixylodian)or minor chord (from Phrygian.) Enjoyed the listen and chance to use my music theory while listening.

Tangmo,
Musically this is very clever.
Intuitive, classy, surprising with anticipation and tension.
You've really have done justice to your song.

You've created a nice one here... That's the neat thing about music... Every song can be an experiment... Keep experimenting & learning

Howdy, 'tangmo'...
I dig musical 'experiments', 'cause I regard the experimenters as questing souls who are not only trying to expand the boundaries of their theoretical musical knowledge, but also are following a path that their spirit is leading them on. As I've said on the Users' forum before, "music is more than sounds".
But as sounds go, your piece reminds me of the modal approach that the late film music composer, Fred Myrow, applied to his score for the 1972 sci-fi film, Soylent Green. His music for that movie has the same 'shape-shifting' feel that On Third Thought has: chordally restless, always seeking a higher musical ground, finding consonance in dissonance, and more.
I think On Third Thought is a novel, quietly other-wordly musical journey that also evokes some finely-felt emotions of the sublime kind. It could've gone on forever, as far as I'm concerned.
LOREN (a.k.a. 'bluage')
P.S. The 'jammy' thing -- you did not desire it to be such??? I think it provides a rhythmic base that sort of grounds and connects the modal flights of musical fancy you unleashed in your composition.
"Music is what feelings sound like."-- borrowed from a Cakewalk Music Creator forum member, "Mamabear".

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option
Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!
Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!
For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.
Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.
Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!
Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.
Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.
