NGUAC elimination round submission. Going retro for this one, I guess?


Inspiration: Richard Clayderman

Hey TheGrassGuy! Believe it or not, two months later I'm still circling back and trying to give people some NGUAC feedback on tracks where the judges didn't provide it initially.

Love the laid-back mood and acoustic sound design here. Reminds me of a 70s soft rock ballad or something. There's a great sense of gradual build-up into the part at 1:35 or so. The breakdown at 1:52 comes on a bit suddenly, but you transition well back into the upbeat and busier section at 2:25, and the expressive piano there is especially nice. The mixing here is also rather good - crisp drums and well-balanced frequencies throughout. The rich strings and melodies at 3:08 hit the piece home quite nicely, and I'm also a fan of the mellow outro. "Radiance" is a fitting title - this piece just has an elegant kind of buoyancy to it. Stellar work! Hope to see you back in the NGUAC next year. ^_^

Bro, this is giving me chills, great piece!
Chorus cadence is out of this world

Sadly didn't make the cut
