I listened to Dragonfly
 
Love the drum sounds, and the understated keys,
 
is the ringing @ :16 intentional?
 
This has many layers, like a wedding cake, each one sitting atop the others.
 
The guitar seems a little awash.
 
Nice work my friend.  I like the video too.  How did you render that so it had that quality?
 
I look forward to listening to some of your other creations.

Thank you.

I don't hear any ringing at :16. Does it still exist if you play it again?

I do draw on layers quite a bit in my own work. The guitar that comes in the right channel half way through is intentionally drenched and not quite defined. My tremolo picking would be very prominent and upfront without the wash and I didn't want that, tried to keep it more as a textural layer.

The "lead" guitar has quite a bit of reverb too, it needs it to sit within the mix alongside drenched guitar.

The quality is a result of a decent video capture then using the absolute highest rendering settings youtube allows. Which is 8megs at 1080P. Use any more than that and YouTube will compress what you upload. It is also set for the max audio allowed. So it is all compressed before YouTube touches it. Using these settings, they don't further process it for the highest setting.

Interesting, Brian.  Takes a bit too long to develop for me but I am an old blues/rock guy and I am impatient!  There are some really full nice sounds the deeper you get into this.  I got a video of a praying mantis in our pumpkins the other day.  You video is captivating.  The music fits well.

The 5th video I posted is likely more your speed then.
