[The Dream (with vocals)]

Wow I really enjoyed this!! It's definitely a hard-hitter. Your vocals are so enchanting and seamless, and the melody and chords you've chosen in this composition are unique yet so suited. I think the vocals are mixed nicely and the strings are mixed quite nicely too, but there are definitely some other things you could focus on the mix, just to make it crisper and take it to that next level!

Glad I found your music :)

backwardecho responds:

Many thanks! :D I'm glad everyone seems to be happy with the more organic element of the song aka the instrument in my throat, ahah! Thank you so much for the constructive criticism too, I will put it to good use with my creative work.

Also very glad to have found your music, I will definitely be keeping an eye out for future songs from you! =)

[Empress' Den]

This is lovely! Your oboe performance is particularly well done!

Joelle responds:

Thank you so so so much!

[Desolate Dust]

The amount of projects I've also got rotting away in dark folders on my C Drive... this is beautiful and very atmospheric! I recognise the string instrument VST... I think I've used it in the past but I'm trying to recall it... I'm sure it's a pipa or an oud VST? I'm too lazy to search my library though haha! Really beautiful!

larrynachos responds:

Uhh, the lute was from ERA II's Medieval Legends library. I wouldn't be surprised it others have used it, cause it's one of the best medieval libraries I've found. You should upload some of your older projects!

[Scarborough Fair]

I love it.

Krichotomy responds:

Thank you Jordi. :)

[Ancient Voices - Ambient Piano & Strings]

This is beautiful... a real pleasure to hear! Cait's voice is so pure and stunning too. This track has a lovely ambience about it and it's easy to hear the amount of time and effort you've spent on paying attention to every little detail. Thanks for this!

Grandvision responds:

Aww no thank you for inspiring me to get back into music, I am glad I reached out to you and listened to your latest compositions a while back, it really did made me realise something, that music is just that, music no matter how small or large, different or varied it is. Maybe we'll be able to collab at some point although I'd have to learn a couple of chords first, it isn't as easy molding orchestra with a unique voice such as yours, got to be harmonized.

But yes, Cait has a beautiful voice and it took me quite a while to find the right phrases that would sound in harmony with the melodies being played, including finding the right mix of instruments.

[Jazza's Song (Cover)]

Really well done sir!

LucidShadowDreamer responds:

Thank you very much, mister! :3

[It's Raining and I Can't See]

This is beautiful in the most superb way possible.

larrynachos responds:

You're too kind, Jordi <3

[Walking through the endless road]

This is really nice! Muito obrigado :)

guilhermevl1 responds:

Thanks a lot. Your stuff is even nicer!

[Song Of Storms (Synthfuck Cover)]

I'd have to disagree with WhiteWolf - I really enjoyed this arrangement. I think perhaps the mixing could make the sounds more vibrant!
