When I saw Charon in the title of this post, I was really hoping it was the Charon of mythology and I was definitely not disappointed! I think the way you described your song really suits Charon and the myths surrounding them. Really cool inspiration you found from such a well-known mythological figure. Thanks for sharing!


Cheers,
Ember

Hi Lawrence,

I love this kind of slightly outside the lines production. The seamless flow between the two time signatures is so smooth and well-executed.

An engaging, cinematic sound that just holds the listener's attention from beginning to end. the choice of tracks is so well executed and the mix - well, it's fabulous. Thanks for a great listen. A tip of the hat for a great song and listen!

Alan

The time signature change is very inventive and effective. A great sounding outside the box instrumental piece, Tom

The unusual meters sound very easy on the ear.
Which I found a bit of a surprise.
Good one.

I am a big fan of Yes for sure. Thank you Josie.

The riff of the intro and flute melody are excellent.
The two meters 7/4 and 4/4 are very cool and effective.
The way to use the change of rhythm is splendid.
It is a very ambitious work.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Thank you Shigeki.

We are clueless as to how you put all this together but the sound for an mp3 of a 20 year old production is amazing. And so are you!

I used some a bit of alchemy on the production lol. Thank you.

Thank you Torrey. That is part of the reason I moved away from instrumentals, my friends kept asking "the songs with words" lol!

Lawrence,

Firstly, my sincere apologies for taking so long to get to this.

The intro is spectacular! And the song that follows is incredible... I love the way you've created a synth-based excursion in the realm of instrumentals. Very, very enjoyable from start to end.

Without any hesitation it's two excited and enthusiastic thumbs up from me, too!

All the best,
Noel

As others have said, there's a wealth of interesting musical ideas that move this along. It does the "musical journey" that so few instrumentals pull off well, and it does it in spades!

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?
