Hi. Took a lot of mixing but I'm  satisfied with this mix but I still am open for some suggestions about how to improve the track. I already got a nice tip to use a harmony line from a fellow forumite in KVR forum which imo boosted the second and third choruses. I haven't, iirc, used that little trick because I tought it was difficult and I haven't really even thought about using it like i did here. I hope you like the track and I hope you give some feedback too.

Nice sound, Son.  I like it.
 
All but fifteen seconds of your piece contains virtually the same background sound from beginning to end.  Perhaps keeping the basic overall sound but changing instrumentation from time to time would prevent it from being monotonous.  No chordal background for a full minute somewhere in the piece would be great as a contrast.
 
Good work.
 
Best,

Thank you Larry for commenting and the good tips. I try to use them to improve the track and perhaps in my future tracks too.

I really like the melody lines you've used, and the synth pads support them nicely.    As for the drums...   They come across a bit muffled and maybe over-compressed?  For me I'd like to hear them more present and punchy, to hear that snare really pop. 

Nice retro sounding piece. It brought to mind Pet SHop Boys and War of the Worlds - a strange combo!
the tune is really good and I think you have enough dynamic variation to hold the attention. Agree drums could be a little more punchy but overall it's nicely balanced

nice melody and soundscape
Pleasant instrumental music

Thank you for your comment. I tried not to use compression on my latest version but I haven't put it online yet. I will try improve the tune.

Thank you for your comment.

As usual you produce very melodic pieces which are pleasant and easy on the ear's.  I agree the drums could do with a little more punch and as suggested by Larry some instrument variation would add some subtle movement without distracting from the overall feel of the tune.
 
Thanks for sharing.

You mixes are getting better and better. I enjoyed that one even if it's not in my wheelhouse.
