Beautiful layering. Perfect bass. The chord progression is nice and interesting. Those vocal (?) sounds have a great timbre to them that fits snuggly in everything. Love the calm intensity that's building. Feel so epic and large!! You created a great space. Would love to live in this sonic landscape. Congrats to finishing out the year super strong!

I'm so into this piano melody!!! It sounds so pretty!!!!!
And when things get full, with percussion and all, it's so dreamy and sweet. Fantastic job!!!
Looking forward to seeing you in 2026!!!

Wild soundscape. So full and lush. Really nice work.

When I was listening to this on stream, my internet was a pitch patchy, and I was sometimes getting a bit of a warble, like a stretched tape, and then it would speed up a bit sometimes, giving it this wonky feel that was really cool. I kinda want to try to emulate it

Gorgeous and epic. Loved the chorus especially. Fav'd.

Absolutely enchanting, stunning, beautiful. That build at the end with the drums and everything coming together is just the best kind of magic, it'd stand proud on stage beside M83. Wonderful. Conngrats on a great year of WB!

ha, i think i was listening to this while you were commenting on mine 

what a heroic & poetic way to coast out into the moonlight! love the patience and layering that you build into your magic music. and those cronchy drums are such a nice touch.

do you think we might see a lcb album this year? if so, please make sure to let me know!
best to you and yours

beautiful .. great chord choices

beautiful .. great chord choices :)

Beautiful and serene sound.  Love how it builds in the beginning.  I say it every dang time but love your chord progressions.  They have a way of revolving around in such a way that just puts you at ease.  Ooof when the drums kick in and that airy synth comes in \m/  That is such a cool synth sound  It cuts right thru everything in the mix but doesn't overpower the sweet arpy line that plucks my heartstrings.  I too look forward to any future lcb albums!  Mayhaps on da BC?  Oh dang we climbed another level at the 4min mark! It's been a pleasure to listen to your music this year and an honor to have worked with you on 'wistful woodlanders'.  I def plan on revisiting a lot of your music later this year.  So many inspiring themes.  I hope you have a happy new year and def keep me posted via email! Cheers!

As a cloud pop enthusiast, I was delighted to see the title and this did not disappoint! Love the gradual build with some familiar progressions/motifs sneaking their way towards the heaviness and intensity of the original. I have no doubt this could stand on its own as a compelling piece of music but I looove it as a pairing to the original.

Congratulations on another WB in the books! Thoroughly enjoyed getting to experience your music and all the many modes/styles you worked in this year. Hope you're feeling stoked and proud about everything and can bask in your successes for at least a bit

Very fitting for a final dramatic scene. It's an elegant blend of sounds I'd expect from Slowdive, Edward Shearmur, and M83. Rises from serene into emotionally epic. Perfect mix, no notes, five stars.

Congratulations on keeping the streak alive all year! WB24 is over. We did it! Hope 2025 treats you well.

Thank you for another heavenly beautiful song. I completely got carried away at 2:30 when the track took off into an epic dimension.
Have a good time in 2025.

Amazing sendoff, great combination of piano, strings, vocals, bass and drums
this truly feels like the end of something great
It's been a blast listening to your stuff as always, hope to see you again next time

Congrats to you too! And thanks so much for listening.

Thanks so much. Looking forward to catching you in 2026 too!

Sounds like an interesting prompt for a new track! I'd love to hear it if you take it on. Hope 2025 treats you well, and hope we'll all be back in 2026!

Thank you!

Congrats to you too! Hope 2025 is fun and restorative and that 2026 will bring us all back together for another year of music-making!

Thanks so much JWH! Best to you too in the off-season. As for an LCB album...we'll just have to wait and see, but if one ever comes together, I'll be sure to let you know!

Thank you!

Looks like I'll have to get serious about writing an album! It's been a pleasure making it through WB with you this year as well. I had a blast working with you on wistful woodlanders and I can't wait to see what kind of music you'll bring to the new year!

Means a lot to hear the original had that kind of impact. Glad this sendoff turned out okay! It's been a blast getting to do WB together this year. Congrats on all of your victories this year, and on so many beautiful songs written. Here's to a hopefully happy new year!

Thanks so much! and congrats to you too. Hope 2025 is a good year on your end!

Thanks emily! Happy 2025 to you too. It's been a fun year of WB, in no small part thanks to your inspiring songs!

Great outro to 2024. Love the steady build over the song. A great mix of retro instrumentation and the more realistic piano and percussion sounds.
