This must be the first chill out track that actually worked for me. Even now, i'm so damn calm just typing is a huge hassle, why type, when I can SEND you my thoughts!? *humms violently while trying to project thoughts*.

I hope you didn't get that thought... filled with secrets... >_>

Anyways, the abundent amount of soundeffects really works out pretty fine, I wonder how many you used. I'm sure well over 20, I just can't count them.

Awesome stuff man. I don't think this track needs vocals at all, I love it the way it is. 5/5 from me.

Woah! thats why I suddenly had an orchestral arrangement and movie unfold in my mind. Send me more ESP ok? I was wondering why that happened ;)

I'm really happy if it filled its purpose of bringing a bit of chill, thats what its all about sometimes. And I appreciate the review no end, as usual. Thanks for your time!

Thanks man.

At the beginning where you introduce that cello? string way low octave, that really gave it a darker feel, I wasn't thinking charmer, I was thinking, Succubus murderer X_x.

Still I liked the plucking instruments, to be honest, it sounded a tad random, but when I pay enough close attention to it, it does have a structure, but it is easily missed, I would advise looking over your melodic feel. It works, but I felt this time it was bordering on chaos.

Maybe you wanted that.

Good percussional works, I think I heard bongo drums somewhere back there, you should definately make those louder!

Good stuff, 4/5 from me SirFiNiX. When you have the time can you check out my piece? Thank you.

Author's Response:

The plucked strings? Are you thinking of the Koto/Honkytonk? More bongos. Yes, I think you might be right. And chaos was sort of what I was going for. :) I love complex rythms. Maybe they're a bit too advanced in this piece, to the point that it's defficult to make out.

Hmm, my first thought, is you need better samples. What program are you using? I would like to offer my assistance in helping you get some better sounds. I feel with some better strings samples, this would have invoked the image you wanted.

I'm not saying I didn't get it, but it was distorted, and hard to picture, not because of the song, but because of the samples.

The song didn't change in direction too much, as it seemed to be the same thing again and again, but it makes for a good loop.

I would have liked to hear a flute in this piece, I think that would have said "open fields" a tad better.

Oh well, good stuff, keep them coming!

Flutes. Okey Dokey. As for where I can get better samples, I really dont know.

Hmm, a sweet melody, that flows gently into my mind. Except that part where you play that lower octave, that part was a tad oppresive in my opinion, as if this special place is a tad depressed.

The beginning as stated flowed very warmly, I could totally see a child sitting under a tree looking out into a great large glistening ocean, the soft winds and crashing waves weaving itself around this child's ears, dancing with his imagination.

Great theme.

I didn't quite like that last half with the oppresive octaves, but that is personal taste, it was still well created.

Thats all I have to say about this piece, good stuff SirFiNix. Keep them coming! 4/5 from me.
