Some great sounds here, one thing I didnt feel is the percussion. Since this track is more chill try using something other than a woodblock kick or a big trancey snare. Really liked the piano, but it could use some more reverb, maybe around the mids.
My 2 cents, good track and good luck

I really like all the sounds you have created and used, they fit very nice together. I feel the track just needs one or two more elements to spice things up.

Nice sweet melody, I agree the percussion elements are a bit cluttered, Some more space between elements would be great IMO, the percussion could be fitted more to the front due to the kick being really upfront, and I would shorten the attack and add some more rever and delay to the keys.
Nice vibe, looking foward the final work!

Thanks guys
I've deliberately left a big hole in the middle of the mix for the vocals and then i'll add stuff once they're in place.
I hear you on the percussion as well. Not my strongest skillset, and definately something I need to work on.
Thanks for listening.

Great open mix and lovely sounds.
I personally love it this clean and uncluttered - you indicate you may add more layers / sounds, but I dunno, it does'nt need em.
Percs are good, but could be a little more esoteric and really up to date- maybe grab inspriation from sander van doorn or deadmau - his percs even from 3 years ago still seem fresh.
Give me a prod when the vocals are dne as it sounds real nice to me and chill.

I'm not gonna fill it up with arps so don't worry :p I'm just talking about percs, hits, some layering of what's already there and some vocal frills.
We've done a sketchy test vocal that's not sung in the right voice (misses was in classical mode still ;) ) but i'll PM you a link so you can see where it's going.
