<3 you are welcome, and thanks to you too!
I'm always hearing people say that they want to hear complex tracks with lots of different layers, but I will never fall out of love with tracks like this. Such delicate harp and flute, interwoven with beautiful, airy lyrics...the kind of lullaby that makes me sigh contentedly as worldly concerns melt away. The bass that comes in at 1:55 rounds out the mix so smoothly, too.
Jordi, your singing has always been nothing short of an inspiration, and together with the additional vocal talents of Merryberry, the elven magic of Quenya comes brilliantly to life. I was waiting patiently for the overlapping vocal section that I knew was coming, and was indeed richly rewarded. It makes me wish that Tolkien were still alive to hear it.
There is a slight breath hit into the microphone at :56, but that's pretty inevitable when you're recording such soft, breathy vocals. In a way, it adds a bit of character...at least that's my opinion. Wonderfully done.

Hey Chrono! It's been a while :)
Thank you for your kind review. This is definitely one of my favourite compositions that I've made in a while. I think the noise you hear at :56 might actually be a door banging in the distance, though I can't remember at the moment! I was quite happy with the vocal take and the emotion felt just right, and once I had mixed the vocals into the instrumental, it didn't seem to bothersome, so I kept it. Well noticed!
Hope you're well <3
Your voices are pure magic that soothe my soul. Thanks for sharing this lovely piece.
