Wonderful ebb and flow that sounds very special in the stereo. Meditative and interesting. I like this a lot.

Wow - this is stunning! Definitely getting some Tangerine Dream/Brian Eno/Philip Glass vibes here. Love how lush and vibrant it sounds. Not a single dull moment, and it flows beautifully. You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing 
Cheers, Deryk

It's always nice to hear something different here...particularly when it is produced as well as this.
To our ears it's a vibrant new age groove that we would think took a lot of thought and time to put together...so textured.
Nice!

I think you spent some extra time on this creative piece... It is an extremely interesting aural composition... Painting with music... Great job on this one!

Will, Really cool and relaxing piece! Very good arrangement and mix. Rt's and the Heavyocity soft worked together smoothly.
P.S. Seems that Vocalise soft is pretty advanced tool.
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.

Has very nice Celtic feel, good usage of vocalise, other instruments are also selected very well, although I wonder how a harp would have worked instead of the piano.

Hi Will,
This is a most enjoyable listen. I was totally captured by the sounds you used and your arrangement. This composition and its presentation really shine with imagination, musicianship and listenability.
Very entertaining.

Yes, it took some time to get the composition I had in my head translated into real music. I often spend a lot of time thinking about the arrangement, etc. before I actually do anything with instruments or software. Will

Misha. Hi Misha, Thank you for the kind comment! To be precise it is actually Vocalise 2 I am using (not the original library - which is good too). Will

Janne Hi Janne, Thank you for your kind comment! I actually auditioned the track with a harp, but I liked the overall vibe more with the piano. Take care! Will
