I'm out of my element here, but to me this just sounds lovely. You are obviously skilled at your craft, and I won't presume to give advice on mixing. Everything on this track is separated and audible, while still blending nicely with all the other sounds. I actually have a Pandora channel filled with New Age-y kind of stuff that sounds a tiny bit like "Fly Away," but I thought the point of the music was to disappear. Listening to this piece is an active - and enjoyable -- experience. I like it. Take it for what it's worth, coming as it does from an unreconstructed rocker.

Nice work. I feel like I should be watching some "finding love" movie or something where the couple has fun doing whatever with the musical interlude.
 
Well done!

Thanks for the kind words Robert!

Really like this as a piece of music and technically the clarity in the mix is excellent. Nice one Dan

Thank you Daryl! I really appreciate the feedback.

Just another "+1"!    Very cool synth tune and every layer is mixed so clean and, well, "airy".  
 
BTW, Miss Blue is working well for you.   I've only used her once so far and only for a few bars, so this makes me want to find a place for her in another tune.

Thanks Steve! She isn't easy to use, but once you get the hang of it, I think the results are pretty good. I'd like her sister to have a less operatic voice, but Blue will do for now :)

I will see the "lovely clarity" remarks and raise you a very nice mix. And what Larry said about you being very skilled at your craft. Nice work Dan.

Thanks Wayne! Getting better with every mix, I hope.

Dan, I sat between my speakers for this and was rewarded with throbbing bass and percussion throughout.  I loved the various textures and the way you arranged them.  All in all, this is a sophisticated production that could not be any more professional.  Not bad for just fooling around.
