And that, ladies and gentleman, is why you KEEP THE TAPE ROLLING...
Mario, you and Bob have quite the musical chemistry. Love that you could keep the theme moving and evolving on the fly. Very nicely mixed, too. Never would have guessed the way this one developed from listening to the final product.
This should be the soundtrack to one of those ASMR nature videos.
Super duper job! Thanx Ron. Bob and I do have chemistry even though we come from very different music backgrounds. i'm glad that you liked it.
I arrived early to a restaurant. The manager asks, "do you mind waiting a bit?" I said no. "Good", he said. "Take these drinks to table 3"

Very melancholy and peaceful listen. Enjoyed this one a lot. Thanx Charlie. Hi MarioD,
Very soft composition, very pleasant to listen to. Melodyn is a great tool for readjusting sometimes dissonant notes. Well done. Thanx. Melodyne is also great for adjusting the volume of individual parts. That is mostly what I used it for in this song.

I feel I'm reaching the sky and flying to the jamming session with Bob and you. Very cool mood, you are certainly in a trance, eyes closed, nodding your heads, receiving sensational chords and notes from another dimension. Very beautiful combination of guitars and strings.

That's nice and peaceful jamming. And only one take? Somehow this is much more what music should be about than produced top list loops.

Mario and Bob
I saw the title and thought it was some sort of code for something! It's a lovely, gentle flowing little piece! For a one and done it's pretty awesome! You and Bob did an excellent job here! Everything you share is certainly worth the time to listen and enjoy! Mario, you are a treasure to this forum, with the material end encouragement you share and give! Take care, TB

Peaceful and serene. Nicely done.

Lovely, gentle, soothing. Just what I needed to hear right now.

Mellow and chill.  Very nice, but the harmonics were an especially nice touch.

Mellow and chill.  Very nice, but the harmonics were an especially nice touch. Thanx David. I used Melodyne to increase the gain of the harmonics. I think it helped. Beautiful, relaxing. You are the King of New Age. Good mix. fj Thanx Floyd. Not so sure about that King statement but I do like New Age music.
