This is an instrumental song I've been working on and off for awhile and possibly needs more improvement.

I appreciate any advice (mixing/strong structure improvements) or anything else that might help.

Cheers!!

Ps. The song/sound actually begins about 10 secs. into it.

My first advice would be trim the silent 10 seconds off the start.

If this really is one of your first songs I will have to say I am impressed! I really love the whole mood of it, sort of sad but happy at the same time, had ot explain but I love it. After listening I know this is not one of your first songs unless you are a baby Mozart lol, but I enjoyed the song and say well done! Oh I see one of your first posted. My advice would be keep posting your music, it is great! Maybe a higher bit rate. I did not much care for the record scratch sounds at the end though.

Thanks ATS for the kind words. Oh no, this isn't my first song written ...lol. This song actually was just a noodling on the keyboard when I jumped in on IK's group buy they had a few years back and wanted to do it with just that synth/sounds.
Around the same time, I also got CamelSpace and that's the scratch sounds I got when putting it on the drum loop. To be honest, I don't know if this song is completely done or needs more variety or whatever.....

More importantly, how did the mix translate on your system? I basically mixed this on Headphones (while the children were sleeping)and couldn't really get a good referance.

Thanks and appreciate all the input I can get.
