Nice one. I'd like to hear something that isn't 100 % wet reverb tho . Not saying it necessarily is all wet reverb, but it sounds a bit washy overall.

Thanks! Yes, I agree on the reverb, it's not 100% wet, but positively drenched; very long decay times. I guess I was going for a warm&woozy feel, but part of it was also I was trying out a new outboard reverb unit - I hope I find the time to do a more extended track soon & definitely will try to avoid cutting corners by washing everything in reverb.

Loved it, only thing I could think of is if you could make the piano a bit louder so its easier to get the melody through

Thanks! Yes, I think that goes together with the too-much reverb mentioned above. Will try to bring it up a bit...and then next time try and isolate individual instruments a bit more...while somehow maintaining coherence.

I always find it difficult balancing between isolating the instruments and "gluing" them together

The part at :45 was a really nice surprise. It is a nice piece overall.
