Yeah, I know ... I have been busy with life and still am. So, I thought I post a track here that I did not too long ago. I actually did quite a few tracks, but this one, I am fond of. It started out with the original _ATMSPH3.STY and evolved from there... tweak this, tweak that... you know how it goes.

At any rate... I thought, with this one, I give Yanni a run in the New Age genre. LOL! How successful was I? You be the judge smile

Mike, you've further demonstrated the amazing flexibility that can be offered by this program. Really smooth delivery, cool new-age presentation. The gentle build all worked to produce a great song.

Really nice for sure.

Beautiful Mike. My kind of music. Very well done. Excellent playing and tone

Mike,
It works for me. I like the New Age genre. I think the drum could use a bit crisper timbre and a bit louder.

Lovely song. Nice build and lead guitar. Enjoyed my listen.

I just love this track. Ambient + guitar gets me through the day, and this is spot on. BB really can support all genres of music.

My word, this is Good!
Well thought out and a great mix.
Excellent
Ian
PS - my only sadness really is that BB pedal steel RTs tend to be very mundane (IMO only of course) and I think you have done an amazing job in stopping the repetitions being boring.

Very ear-catching, from the first bar. Atmospheric and moody - very much a sonic journey.

Very successful Mike ! Songs like this inspire me to make more songs in same style, so thank u for provoding info that I can use for creating something similar.... Love the style! Makes me emotional ! Got tears in my eyes when litening to this, but that's just me with a few beers inside... crazy

Beautiful lead that sits very nicely in
an excellent mix. The soundstage is
well executed and the entire production
sounds great on our monitors.

Kudos!

HI Mike ...

Cool! I (Alan) posted one in this genre a couple of weeks ago. I, too, enjoyed working with that style. It's a challenge and something a little different.

We loved it! The mix is real nice and the track selection is great. we also loved the building of layers as the song progressed.

Thanks for a super listen! Best to you ...

Alan
