This is a wonderful journey through a magical land. There is a river that reflects the stars, or maybe it's the stars that reflect the river. Beautiful track.

Between the sounds of the instruments and the chord progression(s), this track got my emotions going within seconds. I love this track.

Lovely, friendly, well tempered, colorful music. Thanks

can i play drums over this?
can you send this to me without the drums?

this is so sick

I’ll get your way this week. wink Nothing beats that magic Orange Drink on a track, drumming included. And thanks!

Thank you very much!

absolute magic!

This is absolutely gorgeous… i really the way you transpose the chords in unexpected, but melodic ways. I also like the fm type sounds very much, especially when they are layered so finely as here.

The sequence of runs at :45 feels so magical smile This works so very well both with and without the drums - I'd have been happy enough listening to either version on a loop but having both is even better. Love the balance of calm and intrigue achieved here.

Your chord progressions always get me and take me to a magical place. smile  Love how the bass interacts with the ostinato part.  This almost sounds like it could be in the same world of "Wistful Woodlanders".  Excellent work as always!  Oooh and Orange Drink drumz sounds interesante yikes 

excellent use of sound sources. nostalgic and kinda strange - in a good way!

Nice! once again.

delightful

Thank you! Just about everything in this track is from Korg Legacy Collection M1. I love exploring that library and I’m still finding new ways to have fun with it each week. wink

Thanks! It’s a feeling I got a lot from puzzle-solving mystery games growing up, so I’m really glad to hear that. heart

Thanks! Working on Wistful Woodlanders with you was so much fun. It’s definitely a fun sound world to play in!

Thank you! And with that, I guess you could say this track is…

…squared away. wink

I love this one too, the progression is really nice and masterfully arranged with the different instrument layers

Thanks! big_smile I had a lot of fun with this one, despite the short amount of time I had to put it together.
