These chords find something new in Calling Sister’s melody. Which I have heard so many times I didn’t think someone could find anything new!

The change in the tempo at the end is certainly a change of pace. And nice work crafting a harmony!

As always, thanks for listening and commenting, Richard. I surprised myself too, to be honest. PhiltheNil’s guitar stem was the one that made it all happen, I think. This was one of those “hit or miss” attempts, which went the right way this time. Btw, just headed over to your music site and read your updated music bio. Always nice to get to get to know more about a fellow community member :)

Nice vibe. Thought the guitar was a little too prominent to where the vocals got lost. Nice song structure though. 3/5.

Thanks, panu. I was only responsible for moving the chairs around, setting up the mics and maybe sweeping the dust bunnies a bit :)

Very nice job Ivan. I really enjoyed listening to this track. Moments of melancholy that opened up into a feeling of hope.

nice intimate feel at the begining, gets going nicely towards the end. Gives me a feeling of twilight, and being outside in the evening, being thoughtful.

Really nice Ivan! I love it:-) As written before, it would be great to bring the voice forward in the mix. I’m writing this with my Alhambra J4 on the lap, ready to re-play it at 100 BpM, just in case;-)
Thank you again.

Hey, it’s thanks to your guitar stem that gave this remix the feel and texture. As for bringing the voice forwarded, maybe next remix. Not that I’m unappreciative of the comments so far (I am!) but I kinda like this current mix. However, I would like to have a go at any new acoustic guitar stems that you might have :)

Great remix Ivan.
You’ve turned the excellent pella in a new direction, full of melancholy and pensive style, in a perfect way!

Thanks for the endorsement, donnie. And thanks for pointing me towards the mix in the first place. Your upload resonated in me and the mix really just flowed along.

It’s all been said up above Ivan, fantastic backing track to this. I love the openness to it and the second half has a Traffic like feel. Well done :)

Hmm.. you meant this Traffic? Listening to some preview tracks in Amazon.com. Thanks for the referral.
