Shigeki...lovely track! I really liked that you took out the drum/rhythm RealTrack--it isn't needed, since the melody and the bass/guitar carry the meter very nicely. Great melody, with the initial long interval and the repeating pattern. Your vocalist is perfect for this style. Although you started with a 'country' style, you have re-made it into more of a pop song. Expert production, as usual! Excellent submission for the contest!

VERY cool.
As good, if not better, than the wonderful Jpop that seems to bookend the better anime releases.

Great work on this animarorecords! Fantastic choice of instrumentation. The different elements really glue well together and I love the flute during the intro. Great effects on the vocals, the harmonies are very soothing rich too. Well done!

Hello, Tom

Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune and the vocalist.
As you say, I also think that she is the best vocalist to sing octave leap skillfully.
Using sequence pattern in my melodies is my favorite thing.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.

Best regards.

Shigeki Adachi,

This is really beautiful. Your melody is wonderful and your arrangement supports Takako's excellent vocals perfectly. You are definitely a master craftsman when it comes to music creating.

As soon as I started listening, I found myself caught up in the song. It was a very, very enjoyable musical experience. I'm always a fan of AABA format and you've used it exquisitely well. One thing that really captured my imagination and made a huge impression on me was how, in each A-section, you used sequence to construct the first half of the melody and how this then opened up into a really lovely contrasting melody to complete the last half of the A-section. This second section of melody has a terrific feeling of 'lift' and 'development' associated with it. As I see it, this is inspired writing indeed.

All the best,
Noel

Hello, Noel

Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune and the vocalist.
And I much appreciate your detailed analysis of my composition method.
I am also a fan of AABA format, and at the same time ABA, ABAC and etc., too.
In other words, frequently using sequence pattern in my melodies is my favorite thing.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.

Best regards.

Shigeki Adachi
