Scott, you and Robert have a great signature sound! Really unique but musically compelling and never boring. Everything sounds great, with solid instrument choices and clear production. Especially strong vocals and guitar accents. Super job again!

Hi Scott and Robert,
Splendid video with very pleasant music. I enjoyed the guitar solo with its effects. And Robert's chorus well done.

Fabulous production. Love your guitar work on this, Scott. Robert is really good at those videos, and of course the lyrics and vocals with harmony really elevate the appeal. Spirit Level soars.

I'm running out of things to say! But this is a great track with ace instrumentation, plus that guitar work is superb. Good video, too.
Some favourite Waoist Adages:
#1: Play on the Way.
#13: Ask not for whom the flower blooms, it blooms for you.
#58: Bring consciousness to it.
#63: On the road to effortlessness, effort must be made.
#92: Be Love Now, the rest will come on its own.

Hi Scott and Robert.
Congratulations on a terrific presentation.
The song, its arrangement and the mix are all excellent.
Everything about it mesmermised me.
Scott: As always, your guitar work was superb.
Robert: Your song, its music and lyrics and your performance really captured my imagination and took me down a road of highly entertaining creativity.
The video was superb. I haven't heard of Leonardo.ai or Kyber.ai and I was very impressed how you used them.
You've got my enthusiastic round of applause!
--Noel

Well, your guitar steals the show, Scott, as it is lovely!
The melancholy lyric fits Robert’s vocals well.
These lines especially got our attention:
“if there is no ship to see
in passing morning clouds
why do we cling to dreams
like sailors in the shrouds”
That’s another cool AI vid too and your mix and master are ace!
