Thanks Bjorn. Your observations are correct! Start off fast, maintain stability and then slowly spin to a stop. The transition at 0:40 is two bass Drum beats. I mixed their volume up a bit but it is a busy, fast transition that I struggled with and used what I thought was the smoothest sounding one. Appreciate the listen and kind words 🎶 🎵

Thanks treesha. The fast picked electric guitar solos on the first part of the song were improvised and luckily fit in ok with some editing. Appreciate the listen and kind words 🎵 🎶

Thanks jw. Appreciate the listen and kind words 🎶🎵

Thanks Nigel. I usually boost the bass on almost everything i listen to, so those highs can sound a bit strong if you don't. Appreciate the listen and kind words 🎵🎶

Great stuff. Agree with all the good observations above. Your vocals really hold this piece together well 🎵 🎶

Very nice indeed. Interesting combination of consonance and dissonance, stability and tension. Good stuff 🎵 🎶

Sounds great. You've got the slide guitar groove happening perfectly through out the song. Vox sound great. Great work. Enjoyed very much 🎶 🎵

Thanks! 🎵 🎶

Thanks so much treesha 🎵 🎶

Thanks Nigel. Appreciate the kind words 🎵 🎶

Thanks steve. Cheers 🎶 🎵

Thanks Old Joad. The song was conceived and mostly written on a rhodes. It is there in the mix sometimes in parallel with a Juno and other synths. Appreciate the kind words 🎵 🎶

Thanks Bjorn. Good points. Having only 8GB's of memory severely limits what I can do. Freezing tracks is a huge help. Already optimized PC for Cakewalk DAW. Also, thanks for the Vangelis vibe observation 🎶 🎵

Nice unique track. I'd mix certain vox parts down a bit and the guitar as well 🎶 🎵

Nice one Mikael. Good melodies that compliment each other well. Enjoyed it 🎵 🎶

Great Rock track. Nice transition section at 2:45. Lead guitar sounds really good. Great vox 🎶 🎵

Thanks! I wrote the piano parts while recording and playing as best I could. When I finally had some decent piano parts I edited what I played in piano roll to what's in the song.

Thanks Nigel!

Thanks! I'll have another listen.

Thanks treesha, appreciate the listen and kind words. I will try to revisit this and see if a bass part materializes.

Thanks Chaps. Appreciate the listen. After going over the different ways I could present this piece I decided to have the first part contain a "Rage, rage against the dying of the light" undercurrent, hence the piano's somewhat forceful delivery, but if you listen carefully, I was able to deliver softer nuances in the piano at certain times. The second half contains the quiet, solemn, reflective moods. Thanks again!! 🎵 🎶

Greetings All. Here's "An Eternal Flame". Observations welcomed.

That song is alive. Good vibes. Don't lose the great sparks it's full of when you're bringing it up to par 🎵 🎶
