I enjoyed this. It was another satisfying journey.

All the best,

Thanx so much Noel. I really like ambient and new age music. I find it very relaxing.

Sounds a bit Bipolar to me smile

But seriously this has plenty of mood and feel.
Well done Mario. Rob4580



Rob, thanx for listening. Maybe he is bipolar, who knows?

A very evocative composition.

Thanx Peter. The trumpet is called Screaming Trumpet. At high velocities it screams but this is what you get at low velocities.
I think is sounds pretty good.

You really need to be aiming at some sort of movie/tv placements with these, they are too good to not be out there!

Fantastic job. smile smile

Mario,
all you need is a freestyle short story teller, someone with William Burroughs flavor for this. A really cool journey of it's own. I am impressed by your outsider musical experiments.
Listens very well! Thank you for sharing.

Misha.

Great atmosphere, lots of room for each instrument. Really enjoyable mysterious melody and gloomy chording. Great sounding bass and trumpet. Drum track is especially scary, I was wondering all the time is the lost soul going to miss a beat smile

That covers it!

We'll only add that the arrangement is excellent, the mix is superb in its spaciousness and melodies are captivating.

Excellent!

Hello Mario,

This is a very nice, moody song. I read the word 'haunting' sometimes, but to me it wasn't like that.
Probably those trumpets prevented me feeling it like that. The drums caused the drama, but they were more light footed, if that's how I may put it.
Instrumentals are not really my favorite (as I must have said before), but you make them worth listening to!

Janne


Thanx Janne. I am trying to give each instrument more space in my songs. I do have a propensity to put to clutter up songs with too much instrumentation, i.e. notes.
