soothing... so calm, crisp sound, really enjoyed this one... thanks for sharing!

Excellent! Relaxing with great sound design.

Perhaps there is too much sibilance on the vocals.

Breathtaking... :hail:

I really enjoyed this track.I like when the synth bass starts around 1:25 and also when it returns at the end.

I wish the vocals were a little lower in the mix at the beginning. There's also a bitcrushed type of sound that's moving between the left and right channels from around 0:40 to 1:25 and 3:08 to 3:35 that could be changed or removed. As is I think it detracts from the overall feel of the track.

I like the strings at the end and the last 1:00 of the song.

Epic soundtrack!

Carefully mixed, really cool!

@ColeFromMA : Thanks for the detailed feedback on the individual aspects, in case you´re reading this - have you noticed these points by listening with headphones?

Yes,

I listened on Sennheiser HD 201 headphones.

I could listen again on my monitors or better quality headphones.

EDIT:
I listened on monitors and I don't notice the bitcrushed sound at all.

The vocals at the beginning still seem a little loud to me.

Thanks a lot for checking it out once more 8) , I´m glad it sounds better on speakers (that´s how I mix) but I´ll have to check it again with headphones then, just to make sure!

I only just heard this, so it must be the De-essed version. It sounds great. Don't change a thing. Great sound choices and the vocals are a great fit. Good choice of title.

Good work :)
