Beautiful and lush sounds, clear mix.
DMC shouts:
Interesting approach. Relaxed atmosphere. Me likes!
Oxx shouts:
Classic 0supereg0! Great guitars, great winds, I like it (Just a note on the stereo effect applied to the flute and the guitar, though. The travelling of these instruments from the left to the right and back did not feel natural to me)
tim_forsyth shouts:
The rotary panning is a bit wild when there’s not much else going on but apart from that, sonically I think this is your best yet. At times, I got carried so far away from the original tune, I forgot what you were remixing (which is a compliment)

Wow - this is superb. The high-energy of the original completely re-imagined here, mostly familiar but with some unexpected changes waiting to surprise the unwary listener!

Wow, somebody went a little too crazy on the pan LFO… 🤪

The idea of making this into a downtempo chill mix is absolutely great. However, I am super annoyed by the fast moving left-right panning, especially when it's done on the lead instrument (which is an otherwise pretty flute). I find it very distracting. It's too bad, because the arrangement is really good, I like the instrumentation, too - just please, stop your band from running around on the stage so much! It's a cute effect at first - but constantly for 8+ minutes?!? Ouch.

PS: I made the mix mono in Audacity - ahh, sounds much better!…
