Thank you Jon and Rik, need some new voices for that Rik which I am working on.

Hiya Wookiee,
 
Apologies for not getting to this sooner. I tend to follow you, and others here, from SoundCloud so I spotted it there when you uploaded it a couple of days ago.
 
Lovely track this
 
Reminds me of an Edgar Froese track I used to like off his Stuntman album. Might be that lead sound which you say is the Synclavier.
 
cheers

Thanks Andy, I understand there are only some many hours in a day.

Wookiee - interesting piece of music. I ended up being drawn into it - felt like I was going to miss something if I didn't listen all the way through - I'm glad I did - enjoyed it very much.

Thank you Mark, glad you stayed to the end.

I listened to this as my wake up song.  I was feeling kind of depressed at the dismal grey morning, but it felt like a eulogy for the year and *it was good*. :D:D  Did you say that was a synclavier?  I remember my school (c. 1985) buying a synclavier.  It was 10's of thousand of dollars.

Thank you David, yes Arturia's implementation of the Synclavier.  The interesting thing about this is they actually got the original programmers/creators in to do/help with the coding. 

lovely and very Autumn, it felt like you needed to sit by a fire in a country pub with a pint and listen - maybe The Olde Dog in Herongate if you know it...love the warmth of that synth tone

 Great use of sounds to create emotions.  I think that your intent (the trepidation of the coming winter and reflection on the summer past) is reflected in your music.  When I lived up in the Great White North, the only thing that got me through the winter was the hockey season.
 
Well done!!

Hey there, Wookster!
 
Excellent job on this beautiful, very classy instrumental with a smooth texture and variety of tasty melodies!
 
The synth choices you used are "timeless" and blend perfectly for the piece, and the mix sounds clean and wide on my system.
 
I agree with Dan about the "Angel" sound on the lead synth, (I can't remember the name of the song though), weird coincidence, my band manager during the 80's actually managed them in the 70's!
 
Nice job, John, great stuff!
