Very spacey and to me I had a vision of an 80s movie when I heard the electric guitar

All the sounds are very nice everything fits, love the piano and I'm assuming your wife's vocals? All comes together very nice.

Did you used a real guitar to make it? It sounds like a real one haha

Thought you could use a worthy reply, since you help me out so much.

The mixdown itself is stellar. Dynamics for the keen ear. It has qualities that I enjoy when I listen to Dark Side of the Moon, by you know who. When the vocals reached their loudest part, I could tell it was the loudest part of the track at that moment, but it reached perfect intensity without being to searing or overly pervasive. Or simply, loud without being too loud.

For instance, the guitar is also mixed down perfectly in the mix, as well. I actually just got done listening to a late 2000s trance track with loud guitar, but it was in the the loudest, most prominent item in the mix. So if you don't like shredding guitar, the track would really throw you off. So since you have placed things in the mix nicely, it's a lot more suitable for a listener like me compared to the trance item I mentioned previously.

Started the track on a MacBook so I could walk away, talk on the phone and crack open a beer, then came over and plugged in the trusty Ultrasone DJ1's and the bottom end suddenly warms me up, good stuff man. I rather like it, good qualities all around.

Just honest words from me, and good work from you!

amazing stuff man, in my opinion, i think you should do a notch down eq on the master, i cant tell you where exactly because id have to feel it out, but around 250hz.

edit never mind, just got a new pair of headphones, it sounds fine
