I like the smooth guitars at the beginning and the crisp drums. Your voice is really soothing, and the lyrics feel really pensive and vivid. I really like the richer atmosphere at 1:05, and the sound design aids the reflective mood of the piece nicely. I think a second verse would be a good way of adding a sense of progression to this piece. The harmonic framework gets a tad repetitive by the end of this piece, although I really like the string lines and thicker texture during the second half. Overall, really beautiful and evocative work, KCJSDP! Keep it up. ^_^

Alrighty, well, this one was both frustrating and fun to make. I had a whole second verse in mind that changed chord progressions and keys and all that fun stuff aaaaand it didn't work at all, so I stuck with the first part and added a fun ambient synth journey to end it with.
Lyrics:
Cities fade in, stateless in our settings
All along the train tracks of our times
Feelings trace in, hardened around empty
Feeding on the products of our pride
We're waiting, waiting for a sign
Until the day when open hearts meets minds

Thank you! Yeah I was pretty much running on 3 minutes. Meaning I was doing anything to get to that which hindered the piece. It really means a lot that you sent such a great constructive review. Thank you.
Dude... You have no idea how happy I am right now.
I got the urge to listen to your music today and thought "I hope he put everything on Newgrounds" After the collapse of iCompositions, I wasn't sure if all your stuff was still available...
But here I find you with BRAND NEW music, and you're BETTER THAN EVER. I said "What???" to my computer monitor. Fantastic, and personally very inspiring, Kev.
Keep at it!

Steve! Thanks Dood! Yeah so glad I kept music here on Newgrounds. RIP Icompositions.com - just sent you a message that was way too long to post here. Thanks for stopping by to check out the new tunes! I was hoping that changing my name wouldn't make it hard to find me.
This is beautiful man, great work. 👏
