Hello Will, fantastic choice of instrumentation on this. This is beautiful and I really dug the chord progression. Excellent use of Band-in-a-Box and Vocalize, it shows!


Cheers,
Joe

This really is a league apart from many. These days, I don't really get time to listen to every song on here I'd like to (if any, in fact), so I'm so glad I clicked on this this morning. This is a work of art - well done.

What a lovely sonic experience!! The transition from ambient to the up front feel is wonderful! Those synth pads part of Heavyocity? This is some great score music!! Take care. Greg

Hi Greg,

Thanks a lot for your kind comments!

There's no synth on this track - just two guitars, bass, drums and piano. But I manipulated the Vocalise-singing a bit - making it polyphonic to suit my track.

Thank you for listening!

Hi!

Love both the layering and the texture. This song has mysterious yet settling captivation that's so easy to listen to. Very, very nice! Loved my listen! This is an excellent, well-planned and expertly executed musical treat. Best to you
