That's a pretty cool tune - I do think it needs vocals though.

Thanks for listening and comenting. Yes I am working on the english lyrics but as you probably know writing lyrics is not as easy as seems to be. At least to me. I'll try my best and will post the song later.

Lyrics would be cool, but works OK like it is. Sounds like it would work nicely as a theme or soundtrack material.

Yeah ....many movie moments go thru the mind a bit on this one :o) enjoyed it .
....is cool....lil '80s retro maybe ? ....cool nevertheless . You could put some serious heavy solo on top of all of it here n there too of course ....n vocals would be the bomb....especially maybe lady on it :o)

I love the driving bass. It is a memorable song that does need vocals. The best part for me was at 3:15. I think I would make that dynamic way sooner in the composition, maybe do it twice, it adds character. The ending is a little choppy, but I know how that goes. Keep it up, your guitars are cool.

Nice foot tapper, could use some vocals, sounds like a tad to much reverb generally could be me. Thanks for sharing, will keep the furry lugs out for version with lyrics.

Ok, 1st off, comes in great! ”THE HOOK” What I don’t like and it's part of my problem as well…
Your guitar parts repeat too much with no air, you never deviate….
But it's hard to really tell without the words... You could just sing the words you have even if it's not English..
Cool is cool...
I really only understand it as I do and would explain it like this…. You are playing a guitar of musical loop
(X bars long). They seem to be all the same for the most part… repeat… repeat… repeat…
Play some longer Melodic parts. Mix it up. Hotter notes… get that car off road! Ha!

@Bassjoker: thanks for listening. Unfortunately the only one who can play the role of a singer now is me and I will sing lyrics... (I'm brave enough to call myself a singer  ) @Jesse Screed: thanks for taking the time. I wanted that part you liked to be placed right after the actual solo part (of the version with lyrics that will come soon) to give a little silence to it. I didn't want it twice not to make the recording too long. @Wookiee: thanks for listening and commenting. Lyrics is 95% done. It' comming soon. I have gone through a few tutorial videos on mixing and some new mixing results will come as well. @Dave000: thanks for checking the recording. The guitar you heared is not a final something. Just recorded it because no lyrics were ready to go. It will be gone and lyrics will be sung by me... (if we can call it singing) New version is comming soon...

Nice. Before I read your song title I saw this playing in my mind as the music behind the opening titles of a movie, as a fast car with the top down rolls along PCH past Malibu and points north. As music for cinema it could stand alone. I'd love to hear what the voice is going to sound like.
PS: With vocals you're going to lose the drums, so the snare needs a lot more snap, and probably not so many hits. And you might need to back off some of the keyboards to make room for a singer.

A jolly tune, for sure.
As it stands I think it sounds okay, mix wise, although I'm far from being the expert on that sort of thing.
I think Larry has made some good points in his second paragraph.
cheers
