Boy, another fantastic one Mario. If you've missed anything it could only be the title. It seems to be the consensus, me included, that if I were lost in this wilderness I wouldn't want to be found anytime soon ... I like it a lot! Thanx Brad. Yes it does look like I could have picked a better title for this song.

Beautiful piece Mario. Very nice listen. The nylon string arpeggios were really cool. Harp like. Love the quote from Joe Friday. :-)

Ok. One of your best, straight from the off. The low flute is just magic, and the orchestration sublime - and I mean that. Pure magic, purely sublime. Forget alpha waves, this is a theta or even delta wave creator. Superb.
The B major modulation at around 2:10 ... ahhhhhh :-)
and the return to D major at 2:30 :-)))
Is this track for sale, anywhere? I'd pay for it, honestly. I've had a busy, stressful day, and this calmed me down on the spot. And no wonder, since it's so well written, produced and performed. I'm just going to have to bookmark the link and come back to it, right? :-)
Sincerest, sincerest congratulations.

Mario,
Beautiful (as are all your new-age offerings).
Excellent job with the controller. The nylon sounds good (well recorded!)
Good mix.

Thanx for this fantastic review, I really appreciated it. Just DL the song, no need to purchase it. If you can't DL it just give me a PM and I will send it to you.

fj Thanx Floyd. I used a cheap piezo pickup on my $79 USD nylon guitar. The original sound was very thin and tinny. It took EQ and reverb to get it sounding like it does unplugged.

Beautifully done! This could be used as a soundtrack for a scene in a period piece, lovers in the twilight.

Mario,
Yes, I am old enough to get it! Man do you know how to create a beautiful piece of music! The soundscape created here just carries the listener away to another place, and a good place I might add! I love every part of this!
Thanks, Torrey

You drag a good net Mario. This is a good one - you've come to grips with life without the wind controller.

So pretty and soothing. I've only been lost in the woods once. Otherwise I loved walking in the woods. when I lived in TN. Down here I'd be afraid the gators would get me. Just lovely. Josie

Thanks, Torrey Thanx so much Torrey for those very kind words. You drag a good net Mario. This is a good one - you've come to grips with life without the wind controller. Thanx Ray. I'm slowing coming to grips with that pedal board. Right now it is about 65% live and 35% editing but I'm sure with more practice that will improve.

Josie Thanx Josie. We used to take walks in the woods but since my wife broke her femur right near the hip (they still called it a broken hip) walking is hard for her. We don't have gators up here, the taxes are too high for them!
