Really cool atmosphere, nice Celtic mood, especially the fiddle and dulcimer give it an exciting vibe. Very good work with the drums. And the guitar playing is really beautiful, I wish there was a ScottC RealTrack, I would really need one in my next project  Janne Thanks Janne for checking out the song and loved the review. Glad you liked it Man, all that technical stuff is beyond my pay grade.
However you got there...........it turned out well!
moto Thanks moto for checking out the song glad you liked it.

Scott,
Drums sound good.
Lovely guitar work. Clean, melodic. Well played.
Good mix. Stops are well done and add just the right pause at the right places. Cool ending.
Enjoyed the listen.

Thanks Floyd for including the comments on the mix really appreciate it. Glad you liked the song. Scott,
This has a cool and unique sound going on! I love all the different textures happening that keep changing as the tune progresses! Nice guitar! Thanks, Torrey Thanks Torrey Some of the more obscure styles have some very cool grooves. Glad you liked the song

Hi Scott,
Very nice song!
Cool how you worked along with those drums.
The guitar on the far right worked out very nice (to my ears)
The way you play feeds all kind of images in my head, mostly about green fields and hills, daffodils (and other flowers of course) and lot's of sun.
I've enjoyed it (again),
Hans

Scott...you are a player...this one is very unique...it's not as melodic as some of your other works...like Torrey said very textured and interesting to listen to...your guitar voicings are always appropriate for the piece you are presenting...WELL done! Thanks for checking out the song. Really appreciate the comments. Glad you liked the song. I don't understand all the production stuff you did with the drums but I understand good electric guitar playing - and your work is coming through loud and clear. Very melodic. The Band is good too. They seem to mix up rhythms and beats and your playing blends in nicely. Good mix. I like it. Thanks jpg Glad you liked the song. Hi, Scott. There's a lot going on here - a bit like traveling through a dense music woods. I'm a simple-minded melody guy, so I got lost in the weeds a couple times. But it was a nice trip. Thanks David Glad you liked it

Quite the successful experiment, I'd say. Original and intriguing composition. I enjoyed it.

Your experiment worked very well Scott. Your guitar and the drums are excellent.
This has a very cinematic feel and we think it would be a good tune for the sync libraries.
The whole band sounds great. It's mesmerizing (in a good way) and one can track along with the nice changes.
Well done!
J&B Thanks Janice and Bud for checking out the song. Really appreciate your comments. Glad you liked it. Scott, your guitar mastery really shines on this one. The Celtic feel and mix are spot on. Super tone on that axe!
I can see this one in a movie.
Great instrumental - two thumbs up. Thanks Mario for checking out the song. Glad you liked it..

So much good goin' on in there. Scott. Of course you guitars steal the show, but you really developed the perfect supporting cast of musicians. An interesting choice of instruments, and you blend them perfectly, weaving in and out of the shared spotlight. Excellent mix.

Hi Scott C,
Cozy atmosphere, the playing of the guitar lends itself wonderfully well. It's rich in variations of the background and it pleases. Well done.

Scott,
There’s so much to like about this one—of course, the impressive lead guitar melody among other things. For me, from a production standpoint, I would have liked to see a little bit more build from the intro to the meat of the song—starting a bit leaner and mixing the additional instrumentation as you go. But that’s a subjective thing . . . as it stands. . . impressive. Love the choice in stops. Nice work!
All my best,
Deej
