From the title I was not expecting those thundering synth booms at the beginning! Glad to know evil did not triumph.
I much enjoyed the guitar solo. For some reason, the backing made me think of Robert Fripp, of all people.

Hello Mario
Brilliant instrumental piece
Great background with a cool melody
And really great guitar elements
But the intro is absolutely top class
Great work Mario
Thanks for sharing
Many greetings
Andi ;-)

Great atmospheric soundscape Mario.
The intro could be taken as "War on Earth" too.

Nice arrangement. Lovely guitar playing. This could be a movie soundtrack for sure. The sound wave indicator (don't know the official term) on Soundcloud rolls like a gentle sea.

The introduction certainly got my attention!  Nice and melodic, and it kept my attention. Pleasant listen, despite the ominous undertones.

A beautiful piece, Mario.
Cool beginning.
The guitar sounds great. Nicely played and well recorded.
Atmospheric. A great listen.

Hi Mario,
what a tough intro... The whole thing is in a most positive sense so cinematic - kudos
The nylon guitar and flute parts are so beautiful.
Very enjoyable and impressive!
All the best for the year ahead - most of all: Stay safe,
Stefan

Mario,
Nice dreamy & moody piece of music. Excellent work on that Windy Flute and that nylon sounds great!
Thank you for sharing and Happy new year!

Hahaha. It took me a bit to catch your bit about a beauty contest. What a wonderful piece to express your peace, Mario. A very engaging background track and then you come in with that nylon guitar. The flute is a nice touch, too. Really quite interesting choices in the guitar melody.

Contemplative, cinematic and excellently performed. Nice arrangement and mix also - no surprise there. The guitar and flute are standout. Even if we remain clueless how you do it. Best to you in 2022! J&B PS Janice did a perfect imitation of a contestant stating your title Bud

Yes, it took me a second to realize what you meant about beauty contest, but I finally got it. LOL. Enjoyed your soundscape, mellowed me out real nice once the sturm and drang of the intro was over. Nice work as usual.

Well done Mario. I am starting to play with some synths right now as well. Will be incorporating them into my future songs. Lovely soundscape. Super mix as well..

Great piece Mario...an eclectic soundtrack evoking not only peace but tragedy, conflict and contemplation...it's the flute that seems to be the voice of peace in all of it hiding there behind the synths that want to dominate ...I love it...there's a movie out there that needs this soundtrack. IMO
