So-so from compositional standpoint, but mixing is not bad, I daresay.

Negative reviews are welcome. ^^

I think this one actually souds guite soothing and calm - i reckon that im kind of waiting this to continnue, it feels like good intro to me.

I like it, but i think it would have potential for a longer story - this feels like an opening chapter.

Not bad at all - i enjoyed it.

Hmmm.
Some of my friends told me almost the same. Looks like a good point, after all. Statistics has it :D

Big thanks!

Ok, it sucks. Just kidding! I often hear people’s music that is too complicated (or perhaps I should say too augmented), and this is nice and clean and simple, relying on musical fundamentals. By making sure your music is really strong at this minimal level, your fuller, up-tempo stuff will benefit for sure. The lesson is: know when to stop! With this kind of music the psychedelic part has to be *very* subtle, but I do think there is room to play with the piano sounds. Nice work!

PS Que idioma hable en esta cancion?

Thanks for the feedback, Jahful .)))))

I didn’t really have any intention to spice it up with psychedelic vibes — most of them just wouldn’t fit in there .)
As for piano sounds, hm. You’re right, I should have been a bit more creative smile

PS
Speaking of fundamentals, I wanted to stick to more or less simple tertian harmony to avoid that spooky 2nd/4th sound. Otherwise, it would just sound freaking weird, like a nightingale on DMT xD

Basic chords would sound TOO simple, so I chose Em11 followed by Bm9.
