Interesting Mike,
Who played the melody and one what?
You've certainly livened things with your panning.

Thanks, Ray. I played the melody on a DX-7 Kontakt instrument. I'm thinking of doing a new mix because when I listen to the current version (on SoundCloud), the DX-7 seems a bit loud and the rhythm guitar a bit too soft in parts.
Hope you enjoyed it.
Mike

Very nice!
Outstanding use of the BIAB components to create a very enjoyable, perky, track where the melody is discernible.

Nicely tailored AABA melody—something that sometimes gets away from instrumental composers, often resulting in wandering melody lines.

I must simply say: I really liked it!!
