This is some kind of instrumental ballad, quite sentimental in a way.

The basis are guitars, with a very simple lead melody as the main focus (towards the end there comes some kind of solo too), but of course I've added quite a lot other stuff (drums, bass, piano, strings) - I'm kinda glad with the result of the melodic bass myself  Wink
Hope you'll enjoy, and as always I'll be pleased to hear all your thoughts and suggestions.

bye,

frederik

Very enjoyable, well paced, good clean mix, faultless selection and blend of instruments. Delightful subdued finish.

Hi Frederik
I agree with the above, this is a pleasure to listen to
The guitar melody is simple but effective, and the arrangements works for me
I like the bassline, it adds variability to the progression.
Well done

Cheers

This is a very heartfelt performance,saturated with soulfulness & passion...very moving stuff!

I like it.  Smiley
Really melodic, and I understand your way about the feeling "sentimental".
