I really like the shoegaze/dream pop vibe here, very nicely produced too. I'm all for instrumentals and the piece honestly works great as it is, but I feel like some vocals on this would be an addition worth exploring!
Nice. Appreciating the shifting of musical gears at 0:30. The move with silence then the bells halfway through, is very nice! I will say that I went back and forth, especially in the first half, whether ot interpret that horn-sounding line in the back as a lead that I wished was further front, or as a counter-melody that belongs in the back. Good one!
The music box was a great surprise, and an awesome contrast among the wash of ambience. Loved the whole vibe here!
Digging the jangly almost dreampop feels on the guitar. A very pleasant listen.
This is so cool. It's like something out of a movie. Talk about vibes. This here is a vibe. Awesome playing to boot.
It’s a mood like appreciating a cloudy day, because it can’t always be sunny
Great sense of space, just sounds like someplace I want to stay awhile 🙂 nice one. Dig all the elements.
Oooh...so airy and kinetic and beautiful. I was bopping around my bathroom while brushing my teeth.
Beautiful, melodic, rhythm, I'm awash in a sound bath... great sounds and cinematic, too!!
Really enjoying the airy guitars and that glockenspiel is nice touch Mike. Perfect and spot on choice. I picture someone driving and their passenger is looking out the window when I hear the main part. Nice first song MA!
This is joyful and has a kind of restful character both at once. It has this kind of 'mission completed' feeling, I could see this as the end credits of an adventure game or movie, when the hero finally comes home with all the stories from his long and adventurous journey.
It breathes beautifully, like rain on a night full of dreams
I absolutely love you have created a song about made-up words, that has no actual words in it! others have said dreamy shoegaze and i agree - that little drop out at 1min is a nice touch.
