Will,
First thing that jumped out was that great jazz bass . . . beneath the piano, it’s just lovely. The acoustic solo just resonates. Real pretty piece, very well constructed and executed. I went back a couple time to listen to the drum introduction . . . I’m wondering if they overshadow things a bit . . . perhaps dial the volume back a bit to let that guitar and piano continue to lead? Just a thought—see what others think.
All my best to you,
Deej

Very enjoyable mood, the acoustic piano fills the air nicely at birth, then the acoustic guitar leads to youth. Bit expectant, but finally the drums shift the gear for the free ride on the highway of life, describing the restlessness of the soul very well. Beautiful chord progression all the way, but especially on the guitar right before the drums. Melancholic from start to the peaceful exit or maybe it's just a break for a dinner.

om Thanks a lot to both of you for listening. Very much appreciated! Initially I made another mix with the drums lower in volume but I felt the track lost a lot of energy that way, so I decided to go with this mix. I understand that this is probably also a matter of taste. Thanks again! Will

Will,
super job putting this together! That beautiful guitar track is the focal point but the backing band is the glue that holds it together! The arrangement is lovely as well as the chord structure! Very nice job with the mix! Thanks, Torrey

Will, you have produced the most perfect melodic instrumental. That nylon string guitar was the perfect lead instrument. The piano was spot on also. Personally I don't think that you needed the drums, I'd like to hear this without it, but that is just my opinion.
An excellent piece of music.
Back in my day the only time we started panic buying was when the bartender shouted "last call"!

An excellent piece of music. Hi Mario, My "ambient/chill" part of my musical brain absolutely understand what you mean, but I needed the drums to confirm the picture and feeling I had in my head about driving... it is difficult to explain... it just didn't feel right to me without the drums (I tried the mix without drums). Thanks a lot for listening and commenting! Will
