Bump!

Well it's chill out alright Although I would welcome a little variation in tonal Centre and drums too. Further it sounds fine to me.

Hi megalodonnl,
many thanks for your hint.
It motivated my to make a new version.
I added a accouctic guitar and I made some little changes on the drums.

Here is the new version:

Do you think that the new version is better?I

Bump!

Well, haven't been here till now. I think u also might wanna look into better drum sounds cause these sound a bit cheap. I do like the congas. What I meant in previous post was tonal changes added to the composition itself, although in lounge /chillout music u can perhaps get away with just using one progression, I prefer more since the whole song becomes more versatile. But I like the general mood of the song;peaceful. Just what humanity needs in these days - peace and upliftment.

The pad is nice, but the beat could be a bit louder and with more variation...

Many thanks for your tips. I look what I can do to make the song better with your tips.

Today I made a new version of the song.
I take another comp for the stereo bus. It is now the Native instruments VC 2a
I made some little changes with the drum groove and I added a new groove at 5:20.

Hope you like it.
It is better now?
I am very interested in your opinion!

Very recognisable as your work, but smoother and much more sophisticated than your early work.

Hi folderol,
