This is a wonderful journey on the land of music...when imagination snaps and stories unfold...what music making is all about...this is art...acoustic guitar is just like Minor2go's acoustics loops in feeling...piano is perfect and jammy as always and the whole song is drivin us into another dimension...
huge work my neighbour, thanx for the upload, fav, dl, handshake, Danke
Always honoured when receiving an approving review from my dear neighbour and friend Danke....really means alot! Thank you so kindly for all nice thoughts and the fav !:)
Very emotional piece! this should have more views and comments, nicely done and very passionate track, love it! the quality and productions deserves a listen, a fav from me my friend, super awesome work, Larry
Dear Mr Orlando,
Definitely you can stay relaxed since there's no need for you to change style. You are very good at what you do!
Beautiful song.
I like how the rhythm section is "in the background" and let the piano and guitar shine. The string part is creating a nice "change" in the song.
Special appreciation to the subtle work the strings are doing when accompanying the piano (e.g. ~1:50): I like when there are so many little details in a "simple" song like this.
You are a real master.
Take care, Domenico
Really glad to read such a generous review and some very encouraging words. Also nice to know there are still people
who appreciate a kind of music that is pretty much out of predominant trends of today. Thank you so much my friend !
Hello Leon...I see (for a change) I am the first to have the opportunity to comment on another superb rendition by Orlando51..beautiful piano as always and played with that great touch of yours...really nice pacing...kind of puts a song in ones head...nice job on the acoustic guitar by the way...honestly a very enjoyable listen (no surprise there) and among your finest to this ol boy`s listening tastes...big well done to you...Ed
Hola Ed...this is truly an exceptional pleasure to find my favourite LM musician in a role of the very first reviewer. There's no greater satisfaction to me than to hear the words of approval and support from my dear friend from the prairies. It seems I still can't detach myself at least a bit from my standard style and try something radically different although I would like to, but on the other hand I
simply stick to what feels natural to me and as far the audience don't mind I guess I should better stay relaxed...haha...Thank you so much my friend for your generous support...and the 'fav' ofcourse !:)
So, there is so much magic going on in this one, which is no surprise when you combine the talents of Ed and you, Leon. I loved the intro, but when that bass kicks in at 0:36, I knew I was in for something special. Beautiful chord progressions and those buttery guitar tones of Ed's, along with the elegant piano work...truly a thing of beauty. And then you throw in that masterful engineering, and you have created something truly special. I did see someone offered to sing on this, so I'm going to give it a listen next.
A tip of the hat to both of you, and definitely added to favorites. Well done gents. I hope all is well.
Such a sweet track with a cinematic feel to it and also because im Scottish a kind of celtic vibe im getting. I'm sure echo and delay is a black art for me at least but without that its like a good dinner without herbs or condiments. You have done a very good job of this which i enjoyed immensely. Robbie.
Thank you so much Robbie for your generous feedback and I'm glad your ears have detected a bit of celtic touch which is otherwise frequently present in my works.:)
This is a stunning piece of work my friend. There's so much texture. The guitars, piano, violins, the water and the low toms all fit together to make the perfect mood. Pure serenity.
Ok. So dont take anything as a negative as I am a very critical listener. Plus, I feel as if the goal is to uplift folks. Comments are just people’s personal opinions and preferences.
!. Overall, its solid IMO. The only reason that its not as boring going from the D#minor to the B major over and over is due to the different elements or instruments that are used in a timely manner.
2. I thought the intro was great; especially liked the shakers and snaps(?). The pad choice at the beginning is nice and open.
3. Then you add the guitar loop and congas. This obviously increases the listeners emotion with the progression. Makes sense.
4. Next, the violin comes in and this is where I personally started to try and dial some sounds in. The drums come in and are mixed well, but the violin starts to compete with the guitar because of the wetness of the reverb. To me, the verb of the lower register on the violin is in the same frequency range of the lower voicings of the guitar.
5. Speaking of the violin, around the 1:27 mark it goes up in its higher register and crescendos. The issue I had here is a mixing one: when you sit on that note, it makes the reverb almost have a feedback loop in it which makes that particular voicing harsh.
6. Love the Rainstick!
7. Next, the delayed electric guitar (I believe thats what it is), comes in (3:15 mark) and does its thing. However, its very mid rangy, which also clashes with the frequency of the acoustic loop (lower register).
8. Piano does the same thing as the electric guitar. But when it goes up to the higher octaves it pops easier. You place a couple grace notes in there which IMO weren't needed because its all step wise movement.
I know this seems like a lot, but as I said in the opening statement, I'm a critical listener.
Now this song was a enjoyment to listen to. Very natural and well balanced feel & ring to it. Which i always like & value in a good track. Such as this one. So yeah a job very well done once more. I also loved all the elements you used in this track. Probably going to fav this one along the way as well. At least it is well earned in my point of view. So yeah good job & keep up the good works. * bro fist *
I am reminded again of why I am a big fan of your music Leon...like this one it is often touching...something that speaks to the inner person and carries you along on a wonderful journey....a masterful piece of musical art my friend (and that is usual for you).....obviously I will be downloading this one....Ed
Good day my favourite visitor....always the greatest pleasure ! Your generous support always gives me strenght and determination to carry on. So glad you enjoyed this one as well. Thanky you so much...also for the'fav' and 'dl'...
...means the world !:)
3 minutes in i was trying to realize your thoughts behind this beautiful track....
such an amazing guitar.
4 and a half minutes in and im amazed at this beautiful piano you used.
delay gets to me, im a freak for the delay.
you have some sick piano skills. thats an understatement
love the delayed slides
i like to listen to tracks in full and i give my points on them.
however this song just really got to me. amazing i hope to hear more from you
so good

Such a clean crisp mix, fantastic, beautiful and peaceful! Guitars have a nice reverb on them, makes them sound big and spacious. Violins are layered beautifully too! Delay on piano works nicely as well.
I must ask Leon, how bout sending me some of your talent? ha! Enjoy the rest of your summer!
Hey Wayne my friend...always a pleasure ! So glad you enjoyed this one and your generous feedback is much appreciated as always ! Well, my so called 'talent' is still in developement phase and if in the future by any
coincidence happens there will be some surplus of it, I'll
send it over...I promise...haha...
