Hey VTBP, another good job, I like the new percussion, busy but not over powering. Unfortunately I have to say I like the second one better, from a personal preference (bass solo was sweet, very mournful in sound) stand point although this mix sounds really good, I would say from a mix stand point I think (MHO) this one is better.Another small issue is the keyboard melody, maybe switch it between two different sounds? Give a little more contrast? Kinda nit picking here, both are good pieces, you should have good luck... Geo

Hey Vickytbp,Like this one! Has a nice jazzy groove to it. Percussion sits nicely IMO. Nice melody on the synth. Hey...I'm chillin'. ibanez468

Hola!Enjoyed listening to this!I think if you added some pitch bends to the lead, it would've made it a little more expressive. Maybe a little pitch-bend downwards at the end of some melody phrases. Like the one at around 1:02. Just so it wont have that quick cut off while being played over the returning main theme. Conversely, approaching the beginning of certain notes from below and bring the pitch up towards the target note, would give it some additional emotion.And I don't think we are ever finished with mixes...

Vicky,Unique sound. Smooth jazz with some beats underneath. You made it work nicely. I like it.Dean
