The track is nice itself, but IMO something is wrong with the melody.
My website MarcelDeneuve.com. There I post my music and write different thoughts. I'd be glad to see You there!

I listen to a lot of smooth jazz and jazz fusion. I'm not hearing a problem with the melody.
Mix: The bass needs some eq attention. The synth lead is a bit loud. The drums may be over-compressed or possibly the mastering is to blame. The guitar @ the end sounds horrible. Fizzy. Needs some body.
Very cool having the sax solo after the guitar solo and then breaking down to a lovely finish.
Overall, if the mix / mastering were improved, I think it would make all the difference. It's very nearly there imho.
Nice arrangement!

Hello, i've listened your track,and i like but i think you can improve it .In my opinion is a ambient,cinematic track with some elements of jazz and fussion.But the feeling (to me) is electronic ambient music.I think a little bit more reverb in the synth lead and guitar could be great.As Aloysius post above,the bass can be improved.But the track is very good anyway.Thanks for sharing!

I thank you for your comments, however about the mix, today I can recognize more errors than in the past, when I made the mix. Maybe tomorrow I will resume my work better. I feel happy about the composition work already. An increase in mixing and mastering is always welcome !!!
Thank you again.
For Marcel:
I'm sorry but I don't hear anything that doesn't work in the melody

not a bad track man, arrangement wise...funky. it got better as it progressed. I think maybe the main melody is sticking out too much and could do with being blended back a bit with some delay or reverb? Maybe also add some tail to it (decay, release).

First of all, Frank, thank you for your comments. I created the melody on the piano before recording it and I can tell you that in my humble opinion it is in perfect tonality. I can't see things that are wrong, respecting personal tastes that can be different. Different is the mix / mastering that needs corrections as you kindly observed. Thanks again.
