Hi Scott Very nicely played Especially with a lot of feeling Maybe the sound of the guitar could have a little more pressure. But that is just a feeling from me All in all very well done Many greetings Andi ;-) Thanks Andi Glad you liked the song. It's always enjoyable to receive an instrumental occasionally, and this is no exception.
Nice mix, and a clear performance of the lead instruments.
Thanks for checking out the song. Glad you liked it. Scott, Very interesting airy track. I like how you spaced out instruments in the mix and your playing is excellent. Thank you for sharing.
Misha. Thanks Misha. Good to hear from you. Glad you liked the song. You are the master melody maker, Scott. I appreciate the explanation of your recording process. It's amazing how the same recording can sound so different with mic selection and placement. Thanks Marty. Still dialing in this modular recording process. Another tone journey to explore. Glad you liked the song.

Nice work Scott. Excellent guitar work as usual. When the guitar tone changes a couple of times it suggests a change of tack, adding to the sailing theme of your song. Cheers, Mike

I see you are a worthy challenger my nimble-fingered friend!!
And nicely played!!
But I have challenged you! See my latest post!!!
And it is not over yet!
Thank you David for checking out the song. I have to bow out on the last challenge as my poor nimble fingers would be in a sling. I did look the fellow up on Youtube as I had not heard of him. Very impressive guitar player and song writer. Glad you liked the song You have some interesting changes in the song. Nice job. Thanks Herb for checking out the song. Glad you liked it.. Hi Scott,
I think this is better than Al Di Meola, Scott. So you won the challenge! Very nice melody and solo, but I was not at all surprised by that. These are (a few of) your strong points. I have one 'but'; at 2:20 it looks your guitar had less volume than before. at least that grabbed my attention.
Hans Thanks Hans for checking out the song. Glad to have your vote on the challenge. I have been playing with volumes and energy between the verses and choruses to try and improve the songs LRA and dynamics. Glad you like the song.

What a beautiful song in every way, Scott. The melody, your tone (as so many others have mentioned), the melody and the BiaB tracks give us such a lovely escape from the day to day.
Very cinematic.
We wonder if your brother has this kind of song going through his head while he is “lost” in the magic of sailing.
Thanks for the backstory on the creation using the Helix, etc.
Enjoyed it!
J&B Thanks Janice and Bud for the awesome comments. Really glad you liked song. loved your boat pic ...and OF COURSE your tasty changes and playing. i found it a very peacefull and relaxing piece. well done.
happiness om Thanks om for checking out the song. Yes the pic is one of my favorites as well. I have on the boat when it has been leaning over like that. Very nerve racking. I have white knuckles while he has a smile on his face. Glad you liked the song. Thanks Mike for checking out the song really glad you liked it.
