Thank you Mark! The bass is an old sampled one from Gigastudio (RIP). I made some adjustments on the piano. In my poor ears I find the piano levels optimal. I guess it depends on if you listen in headphones, speakers or whatever. My headphones are a bit forgiving that's for sure.
Tried a new concept by reciting the lyrics. Unfortunately the microphone seems to be collapsing by producing variable noise. I don't know why. Tried to record dyring its short periods of somewhat silence. The tune needs a prolongation but I ran out of ideas. A collab would be nice and since English is not my native tounge a real vocalist from the Anglosphere would be very suitable.
I usually put reverb on a separate bus and use this in different amount to the tracks. This time I put it separately on the piano and I agree, it's sounds a bit distant. Thank you kindly for listening and I am glad you enjoyed it.
In the beginning of the calm part it seems that the bass leaves out marking beat one in some bars. But listening to that again, I realize it's done on purpose and I think it's quite effective and contributes to the mood of the second part of your tune. Sorry for nitpicking. I should have listened better.
