Hi Gabriel,
Wow 14 instruments.
You are very talented, and very innovative musician.
Yes, the bass could be a bit louder.
Very nice composition.
Rene

Mix is kinda cool. Impressive for a one-man show.

I am unsure was this intentional (artistic choice) but you misspelled the name of the country. ? Since you are using English to name the song, it should be "Ukraine" no?

[Gabriel_West]

You're right kmonkey, admittedly it was a mispelling mistake by myself, its corrected now,
also thanks a lot for your feedback

Problem is Putin isn't going to stop and to stop him you risk an all out nuclear event. We just got to hope he doesn't go any further than Ukraine. It is really all very scary to me.

The mix sounded really good to me. I did not get a stop war feeling from the song though. I mean the song was really good and I did enjoy it but just didn't get that particular thought from the song.

It is good that you made a song against the war in ukraine.

ATS wrote: "I did not get a stop war feeling from the song though." I agree with that. The song sounds like a nice harmless pop ballade about happy summer days, good friends and ice cream.

War is not happy summer days, it is good friends dying, hungry scared people, raped women, collapsing society, cruel indifference of caused pain, death and destruction. Not Putin, nor Zelesny cares about any end the war messages, they will keep on fighting until one or the other army is destroyed.
