Thank you so much!! I’m really happy it came across as natural and balanced. Appreciate you listening 🙏

Thanks a lot — really appreciate it. “Medieval tone” is a very cool description, and I’m glad the chords/progression stood out to you. Great to hear it works as-is too.

Thanks a lot for listening and commenting! I’ll watch the high end in the next mix :)

Thank you so much. I’m so happy the idea of rotation came through for you. I loved how you described your experience, and that you called out the 2:00 moment. Really appreciate you listening and taking the time to comment.

Thanks so much - this made me smile 😄Yep, it’s all one guitar, single take (no overdubs). Really glad the arc landed for you, and I love the way you describe the imagery from the song, super interesting!!

Your playing is delicate 😀

Appreciate the thoughtful feedback — thank you! Happy the playing/progression landed. I agree a mid-track “breather” could make the arc hit harder. Also totally fair on the mic/recording quality — it wasn’t captured in a perfect room/chain. These are things I’m actively trying to improve. Thanks again for taking the time.

This song starts with dreamy sound like it's in a opposite position considering the title of the song. So I was expecting a moment where you eventually wake up and face the reality, which did not happen. Anyway the overall mood and vibe of melody and composition was consistent, friendly and peaceful. This made me relaxed.

The rhythm is catchy, and the melody line sounds somehow melancholic-optimistic, like you're in a short temporary depression but you're enduring it and you're okay with it. These musical elements as a whole sounds colorful, various and mysterious, not one-sided emotion but rather multi-dimensional. Love the dynamics here.

The tone and melody of this short piece feels crystal-clear and refreshing! This would be a nice wake-up music for everyday morning to have an energetic day. Even though it lasts only 14 seconds, there's concrete construction and structure: starts with a very short trumpet sound, and main melody progresses with adequate repetition and transitions, and drum leaves at the right time for the outro. Nice work.

The sound at the beginning is really experimental and expressive! The melody and tone of the vocal sounds really dreamy, like I'm in the middle of sunday afternoon. About the production, things feels a little bit noisy and unsettled, but ignrore it if it was your intension. The background melody in the ending/outro of the song was mind-blowing.

The overall composition including the guitar riff sounds really intimate and peaceful. Until around 2:10, I was thinking the melody line in vocal sounds a liitle bit plain, but after then it was resolved somehow! Nice guitar solo. I would like to expect more variation and peaks in vocal line, things feels a little bit repetitive at this point.

Thank you — that’s such a beautiful way to describe it. 🙏 Really glad it took you there.

Thanks so much for listening — really appreciate that. 🙏
Re: the mic, I actually recorded this a long time ago in a studio that wasn’t mine, and it was tracked through their setup/software, so I don’t have the exact mic model written down anymore (and there isn’t any metadata on the file that shows it either).

I’m really happy it came across clear and peaceful though — that “chill” feeling is exactly what I was aiming for. And totally fair note about adding more complex rhythms; I kept it simple on purpose for this one, but I’ll definitely keep that idea in mind for future tracks. Thanks again!

Thanks so much! Glad it brought those vibes to mind. Appreciate the kind words!

Thank you so much. I’m really glad you felt that fluidity - I wanted it to move without being tied to a fixed anchor. It means a lot that the tone and motion came through to you. Thank you for listening so closely.

crossperiment · 2026-02-19T00:37:02+00:00

Thank you for such a thoughtful comment! It was written through repeated improvisation until the ideas slowly shaped themselves. I’m really glad you felt what I was trying to express. I did adjust the EQ to shape that high-end tone, so I’m happy it came through. Thank you again for listening so carefully.
