Original tune - I played el/nylon/12-fret ac guitars, piano, rhodes, bass & strings on the keys, drum loop. Drums from BB 2021 Mac - 'silky smooth bossa' I think? Carl https://soundcloud.com/user-851029178/stillness-calm-bossa

lovely carefully done intro.
very nicely done and clever playing.
all i might suggest is trying via editing/plug in reduce the fret noise if you can.
clever ending.
happiness.

Smooth, intriguing tune. Multi-talented musician. Very good work.

Beautiful song and nicely arranged. I like your guitar playing. Fret noise could be reduced, yes, but I wouldn't, because it's not annoying and in a world where everything's clean and digital (just look at what I do  ) it adds a nice human touch!

Great melody Carl, and I loved that intro. and the panning in the drums was terrific. I liked that triangle off to one side that way. Everything here sounded smooth and relaxing. Nice job!

Thanks so much Brad - I often wonder what kind of speakers or headphones forum members listen on?? The hardest thing is to make mixes sound good on ALL systems - here's an excellent Swedish blues slide player/sound engineer who also understands how to mix 'for depth' rather than just L to R panoramic mixing: https://pederafugglas.bandcamp.com/album/go-easySomething I would dearly like to learn, Peder achieves such beautiful separation in his mixes - thanks for your constructive comments Brad and for listening! Best regards, Carl

Sounds really great on my headphones!
Most of the time when I'm listening via headphones, I'll be using my RealPhones option, which simulates listening to speakers. It's a bit easier on the ears, and I don't have to have my speakers compete with the television sitting nearby...

Thanks a lot for your comment David - very useful to know that my mix sounds ok on your RealPhones, dSONIQ presumably?
I often mix on my Sennheiser HD650 headphones these days, I think they're great for the price - after much use over several years I feel I can pretty well trust what I hear through them. If I have any doubts, then I re-check the mix on Genelec speakers with a sub - that of course brings in the effects of the room I'm in, so it's 'swings & roundabouts'!
Thanks for taking a listen!
Cheers, Carl
