New song ... completely instrumental (once more).

Done with the "Pop Piano Liverpool Ballad" _POPPNOL.STY BIAB style, but without the drums ... and with the "2668:Pedal Steel Background WestCoastBallad Ev65" soloist track.

Hope you like it? :-)

Hello!

Very pretty, indeed. The pedal steel coming in around 1:35 was a real nice touch. Nice work! Best to you.

Really nice work on this, James smile Really peaceful, and really beautiful. It has an almost cinematic feeling to it, like it'd fit nice as part of a movie soundtrack. It brings to mind imagery of mountains and forest-scapes.

Good job here - thanks for sharing!


Cheers,
Deryk

James, I listened all the way through and there are some nice elements here, but I felt like it’s a track that is begging for a clear melody line...and why not add in some nice strings? As a basic track to start to build up from, I think it’s very good, but I think it has the potential to be even better with some additions. Thanks for sharing your work!

Thanks everyone once more.

Yes, Tano Music, I couldn't agree more ... it needs something, something more to make it better than what it currently is. I'll go back to it and see what I can come up with by way of a melody - and to add strings is a thought! Will find some quiet time to myself and see what I can do!
