I agree, fantastic. You've made a lot with just a little!  
 
I don't know if you'd consider an add: a very high pitched string (violin or such, or synth string) playing an "E flat" way up top, holding it, sustained. Mixed in medium to low volume. Total background. It's hinted at in the intro (:19) but I don't think I heard it proper in the piece itself? Just an idea, which are like elbows, everyone having at least two, barring mishap.
 
Loved the chill ear candy throughout!

Very cool. No glitches in this matrix (see what I did there).
I must have a play with the matrix, I've never really spent any time with it.



Thanks Daryl. You sure must. It was a new and cool experience for me.

Well, that was a pleasant surprise.  I love your arrangement, as it changed directions and kept me off balance.  That's the way to make the most of what you have.




Thanks for your appreciation Lynn.

Love this Ramesh! Could use a bit more bottom in the kick/bass, but other than that, I think it sounds fantastic.

Thanks Dan ! Agree with your suggestion on the low end. Its just that my MS40 monitors probably give more colour to the low end so its getting over-estimated. The low end seems less prominent when I listen on my KNS-8400 headphones. But somehow I tend to get more influenced by the monitors. I guess time to rely a little more on the headphones or splurge on a better pair of monitors

Thanks Tom ! And I do appreciate your suggestion. Yeah the high pitched synth string you hear in the intro is possibly harmonics of the synth pads that I mixed in. But the fundamental freqs of the pads are themselves much lower pitched aimed at providing a subtle bed of pads, hence not much of that cuts through in the main part of the piece. Maybe a much higher pitched fundamental of the pads would do what you suggest

I really liked that...    I don't know the exact genre either but I don't much care.  Just a solid piece with a nice groove, a variety of tones and a clean open mix.    Great use of the Matrix too...
