Thought I'd have a go at something more spacious this week. Lots of different soft synths and drum machines involved. This would have one of the highest track counts of all my submissions so far. In the end, I was pretty happy with how it came out.

nice atmosphere, I feel a cool summer breeze coming through and the chimes in the window are playing a song.

Great track man!  Love it when it takes a turn.  Very cool.

Spacious indeed, and I love the way it builds. So, how many tracks are we talking?

Thanks for the nice comments guys, unfortunately, after i uploaded i noticed there was a problem with the timing of the bass synth in this one. It was being piped in via rewire from Reason (to Live) and this seems to have messed up the timing so every note is delayed somewhat. Had this problem in an earlier mix, and thought i'd fixed it. The last mix i did was just a minor level adjustment in the intro, so i (stupidly) didn't listen the whole way through to discover that the issue was back.
@Jim Wood: probably not as many as most would use, but i think from memory there were 4 (or 5) soft synths, plus the Reason bass (2 tracks in live, 1 to receive audio, the other to send midi) 2 tracks for guitar, plus a couple of busses. So maybe 10 to 11?
