    Ramesh,
      I like this one a lot, you have some great melodies going on and the bass and drums fit really well into them.  My only critique would be that my ears would like the drums and bass to be just a bit louder in the mix.  But it sounds really good on my system and I am not having trouble hearing the bass and drums, just feel like they are sitting a little under and apart from the keys.  Loved the change up at 1:35ish with the glides. I assume that inspired the name of this tune?  Nice work, thanks for sharing!

    Well, though the music is pretty, the basic melody and rif doesn't change much.  I don't know what to say.  It is good music but not my cup o tea because of the repetition.  But, you did a fine job and I listened to the whole thing.  That doesn't always happen.

    Thanks for your generous comments Tony and I appreciate the feedback. I am working on getting better at mixing. My tracks generally sound good on headphones and reasonably ok on my MS40 (room acoustics not treated though). But I guess I need to listen to them on more output systems and look at mixing more closely. I am generally just focused on composition, sequencing and arranging.

    You bet that doesn't always happen Warren. You have been kind. Thanks. 
     
    Well, repetitive phrases in melody is sometimes a kind of its own liked by some. I am looking to try other things too... music is life after all... so watch my space... cheers...
