Wow, I really like this, nice and progressive, great atmospheric synths. The only thing I can say is maybe blend the intro a little more, it kinda sounds like two different songs when the pads stop and the bass drum starts. And make it longer!

Good stuff.

Hi John,

Can't help you much on the production front, but as a tune it is, as my friend says, "causing me to reflect". It's got that draw to it that really makes you listen. I love it, it's emotional and very peaceful and yeah! I like it very much. I find the notes and the chords really spark off different emotions for me. makes me think. It's really suiting the mood I'm in right now.

PS What's with the crappy stuff? You've got a talent man, don't be down about it go with it!! Not everyone can achieve that.

Really liking this John! Sets up a nice atmosphere, everything has a nice sound to it - those strings especially sound great. Only one piece of constructive critisism to give, but it's already been said:

thanks for listening all! im glad you like it

i'll work on the intro didnt spent much time on that yet.

@SoM: i'll work on the intro! didn't spent much time on it yet.

@luke: i'll do my best to finish it

@bassangel: i'm flattered to hear that and about the crappy stuff, well..it's more because of that fact that the soundquality isn't as good as an avb track or something. which i tried to achieve ofcours, but it never worked out properly yet

@fundamental, i promise i will get this finished! and hopefully this month

anyone else please?

anyone?

Crappy? No way, in Holland we call this 'Lekkere relaxe trance voor in je luie stoel'

Sounds good! I like the percussion with that little reverb. Maybe you should make these ambient sounds starting at 1:43 a bit longer.

I'll be waiting for this finishing touch!

Cool intro! There's some clicking in it though, what's up with that? Also is it just me or the bassline out of key from the ambience? Percussions are very nice, as is the beat, but I think the bassline could be a little faster; seems sorta sluggish compared to the rest of the track. Melody is really nice too, as is the synth you use for it.

Lots of potential here man. The track has an overall muddyness to it that I can't pinpoint on anything specific (though I think the bassline is part of it), but once you get that sorted out you've got something really nice here.

sounds very nice, needs more of a climax tho
