Yeah so this was an entry for a NGMT, which required that you only use 4 instruments total. However I screwed it up and this actually uses 5 or 6 instruments, depending how you count the percussion. However it's a fun piece regardless.

Beautiful

This was a beautiful sound you have some really nice piano sound and really make it all come alive with your own style but really push the limmits with the piano so nice job indeed.

This is so incredibly good! I wish you made more like it :D

That ableton has done wonders for your production. Nice to hear the diversity.

Ha! I wouldn't say it was just Ableton... I happened to switch to it at a time when I started to pay a lot more attention to mixing and production quality. Ableton does have a very clear interface - which may have helped me learn faster - but I'm 100% confident if I switched back to FL I could hit the exact same level of quality.

I like the simplicity and emotion. The mood is very contemplative. The instruments and harmonies are beautiful. It also has a lot of form to it, which I like. At some points, it seemed like whatever plug-in you used for the crash got cut off somehow, like at 2:34 and 3:07. At 3:02, the percussion seems a little out-of-place. Maybe you should increase the volume a little more gradually. The instrument at 3:55 was a little too penetrating/loud as well. However, I love the transition at 4:15, and how you end the piece with the same simplicity and beauty as how it began. The structure of this piece is deeply meaningful, and it even loops pretty well. :D Once you clean-up the percussion and transitions around 2:34-3:07 and fix that instrument at 3:55, this piece will be completely perfect by my standards. ^^ Excellent work as always, Johnfn! ;D

johnfn responds:

Hmm yes you caught a lot of my errors! LIke my misplacement of the crash. That was just a mistake. This is all really very helpful. Thanks for the detailed and thoughtful review :-)

It's pretty relaxing. ^^

johnfn responds:

Thanks bro! I always find it funny how people find my tracks relaxing when I find them super energetic.
