I gladly return back to where I started listening to this song - the bar 1 all over again. Swam Bansuri sounds lovely, excellent playing, beautiful and serene arrangement. Magical soundscape by arch-elf Mario himself, leading me to the Mystic MIDI land.

Janne Thanx Janne for this wonderful review. Arch-elf? I have to be the tallest chief elf in the history of the Fantasy World  Plus if I had ears like that I'd be a Vulcan

OK, a random thought; Why does toilet paper need a commercial? Who's not buying it?

Hi Mario, this new year had done a lot of good to you! I couldn't imagine you start with making songs about midgets, dwarfs and elfes. I read what Marty wrote about this and that song of Al. Because I had a break and now trying to catch up listening to songs on the forum, I listened to Als'song first. So I had the same feeling as Marty described. It made me laugh!
But a very beautiful song, dreamy atmosphere in which the Bansuri fits very well.
