Inspiration can come at the strangest times and in the strangest places. This came while I was in the hospital.

Very nice,first minute of the song makes me think of a Cat , because there`s that background pad that sounds like cat "purring" which makes song very calm in tha beggining. I would of add some Hi-Hat (F# or G# note in drum set). What keyboard was that?

oops... loaded up the wrong one. The newly loaded demo4 has more audible strings & horns, very slight closed hat, almost not there, and timpani at the end. I appreciate your feedback.

Nice composition and execution.
Here's my suggestions.

1.I think the drone intro is a bit too long.

2.I think you have the potential to do quite a bit more with this mix. First I think it needs the panning gone over, sounds like all the instruments are sitting one on top of the other so vary your panning for the different instruments, take them all off center pan.

3. The drums sound thin to me and scrunched up, pan the 2 tracks hard left & right and add some mid boost to them and a bit of bass roll off. A touch of reverb too, to make it sound in the same space as the choir.

4. Lastly I like the melody but I think you might develop it a wee bit more for more interest and movement.

Thank You Terry.
I've got an idea for a guitar piece after the first bridge, either electric or go 180 and use classical guitar. I can also envision a lonely trumpet...somewhere...but I'm not sure.
Gonna have to wait until I'm up to playing guitar again for any great length of time.I appreciate your comments.
As you say...I will continue to Jam On
Thanx again...
