Wow, this is the second piece I've heard of yours today and they both shine. Very mellow, relaxing melody. I love your style and mixing styles. I liked those drums as well, they fit the piece nicely.

Carl, lovely tune! Great tone and articulation on the nylon string guitar, and whatever FX or natural ambience you were using worked perfectly. Like the little section with the change of pace at the halfway point, too. Great job playing the band from the keyboard. Everything sounded great.

Hi Carl,
This is a very nice tune. I've been a fan of Latin music for many, many years. I like the subtle, gentle aura of this one. The nylon ac track is very smooth yet exciting. I would like to have had the bass a bit more forward in the mix, but that's not a big issue - just a personal preference.
Very nicely written and executed.
Alan

Carl, this is outstanding.
Great chops on that nylon string guitar.
Super backing tracks.
Fantastic mix.
I think this is your best to date.

Hi Alan, thanks a lot for your nice comment - appreciated your mention on the bass needing to come forward a bit, funny my son is always telling me just that "more bass Dad"! I will pay attention to that now you mentioned it too - thanks for taking a listen!
All the best, Carl
