Nice track Bjorn mix works well here.

[Ross S]

Nicely done Bjorn, spacious mix, cool beat, and really nice use of enveloping and emotive synth textures 

[jwnicholson78]

Lovely.  You had me with the opening chord, and then the drums came in to add the rhythmic feel.

Wookie,  Ross and Jeff,   thank you I appreciate the comments.

Cool. Interesting structure and nice sounds with space ambience. Well done instrumental music.

[PhonoBrainer]

The mix sparkles with clarity on the upper mids and highs, all the evolving textures are quite distinct and clear. A pleasure to listen to!

I found to my ears the bass instrument (guitar? Synth?) much less discernible, and wanted to hear more bass in the groove. Ymmv.

A very creditable job handling these synths. The melody was a bit scattershot. Curious, in this genre, which artists do you gravitate toward?

A very cool listen and well handled with a lot of elements coming and going!

cheers,

-Tom

Thanks Tom. I appreciate the comment on the mix. My hearing loss keeps going downhill so
I'm relying more on helpers like Ozone for the mixdown. For ambient stuff I always have Klaus Schulze in mind.

Thank you Makke.

Nice orchestration of synths!  Transition about 1/2 through worked well..

[treesha]

Nice intro. Enjoyed your choice of sounds and working them together. Interesting rhythmic interlude. The highs work well. Good trippy stuff !   

[Bajan Blue]

HI Bjorn - I really like this - excellent mix and great groove - enjoyed listening to this, great stuff

Great mix. Interesting musical journey 🎶 🎵 🎶

Loved the first third and the last third: I didn't feel the arabic(?) scale part in the middle worked though, musically or sonically (the solo synth didn't gel to me).  But the rest was absolutely beautiful.

Larry T: Thanks for listening and commenting.

Xoo:  What you commented on is exactly what I was thinking. The 1st third or so is pretty good (IMO) but after that I couldn't get it to transition into something more than just acceptable.  After numerous versions and getting real tired of working on it, I declared it done (for now). 

 

[Martin Schiff]

Very nice, Bjorn. I enjoyed listening. 

I loved the beginning and would have liked to hear more of that somewhere else in the piece. 

I enjoy and create space music as well.

I know what you mean - I've been in much the same position and just done *something* in the end to get it finished.  That said, the 1st third is really, really good!
