Don't Bank on it

Another Proggy instrumental.

Its been on the go for some time as I have just not been able to finalise it.Today I thought that's it, I won't tweak it any more (but don't bank on it )

This time I have left the orchestral samples behind in favour of a Mellotron and Hammond (VB3) fest.

    You could make a whole song off the piano arpeggios.  That lead synth is awesome. I think your organ may be too dry (relative to everything else).
     
    Cool stuff Glyn!

    I'm smiling.       Yeah, this is in my genre pool for sure.   Getting a bit of a Genesis/Gentle Giant vibe.
     
    Everything just sounds good.  Loved the mellotron strings, nice touch, and the organ lines were great with a thick and meaty tone - perhaps a bit dry as Dan said, but works OK for contrast.

    Thanks, thats a real compliment coming from someone who has mastered the genre. As for the primary infulence on this one the title is just a slight variation on my original working title and the clue is there
    Thanks to the others that have commented, I will come back it it a try a bit more ambiance on the organ at some stage but I need a rest from this particular track for a day or two.
