Hello DavidOrr
Lets begin our review by analysing mood and atmosphere.
heh, there is really not much to analyse, its a very happy, love torn song. I swear to god, the first three notes made me think of "You are my Sunshine!"
A very hopeful, bright future feel comes from this piece. Yet the image I get from it is quite strange. I an old man sitting on a bench, in Autamn, leaves falling in great numbers, in a park somewhere. The birds are leaving, people on bikes just going by him. He smiles, his love for this spot, this time is great, and unfaltering.
A great image.
Lets talk a bit about instruments.
Great work on that piano, I mean come on, you seem to play pretty damn well. Sets the mood right away. I also like the level of reverb going on here, enough to really make it special, but not enough to wash out the rest of the instruments.
I think those spic strings should be abit louder.
I also feel the flute was a tad bit overpowering. I like the idea of strings and flute playing the same melody, makes for a neat sound, though I can't help wondering how it would if you had it play a counter melody. When that flute goes on by itself, I feel it makes itself really heard.
You lost some points in clarity, because I had to really strain to hear those strings in the background, didn't even realize it until the third time I listened to the song.
Did you reverb that flute like a madman? I really like it, but I think you may have gone a little overboard ;).
I have nothing to add or remove from this song DavidOrr, very powerful stuff. I would like your feedback on my piece, I think you have a great understanding of music.
Keep them coming DavidOrr, I know you will go wherever you want to, and beyond that.
