Laurent, out of this world! Love the layers of synths and spacey FX. Your guitar work really sends this into orbit though. Love the ending, too. Great job!

Laurent, this is a masterpiece.
Loved those spacey sounds.
Super use of that synth voice.
Great mix.
You guitar solo was Icing on the cake!
Loved it.

Fluid, soothing song with a great mix. The guitar solo grooved with it a treat.

Really beautiful Laurent.

Totally loved that solo and the tone.

What kind of guitar and effects were you using?

This sounds like the background music we’d hear on our space flight as we’re gazing out the window.

The music is light and airy and Hayden and Solaria provide smooth little touches.

Your solo was nice and dreamy.

We enjoyed all the video shots. Thank you for the space trip!

Thanks DC Ron. As I wrote to Bob, it took me a while to put all the pieces together and get the sound I wanted and I'm glad you like the work.

Thanks David.
For lead guitar I use a custom PRS but I have a Sire L7 which does the job very well.
The problem is reproducing the sound of a big tube amp like a Mesa Boogie with big sustain. If you use this in reality you have tinnitus after 5' and a riot from the neighbors around your house. I found something close to it, it's the amplitube 5 plugin with the Mark 2 lead sound, I removed the overdrive because it spits too much, I put in a noise gate, equalized by boosting the midrange and put some echo behind.
I hope this answers your question.

Hi, Laurent. I saw the notification for this one on YT, but had to wait until now where I can sit back and enjoy it, which I was sure I would. Man, I know me. Very good write and production and outstanding use of the synth voices. Excellent harmony. Man, that guitar is outstanding. It closes my eyes and carries me along stretching and turning with a constant smile of enjoyment. So well done. Really good stuff, Laurent.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Thanks for the walk on the stars, very atmospheric song, space has lots of wonders. Those synths sound very pleasant and your guitar work is enjoyable. Nice melody and soulful chords. The vocals sound nicely like another instrument, they could have some spacy effect as well to hover around the milky way (just like in the ending).

Thank you Janne for the comments. There is a little reverberation on the vocals. I had tried different combinations but I didn't like them so I kept it simple.
