Excellent work. Nice use of exotic percussion as well.

The opening part of the song has a Chariots of Fire feel!! Could be in a film in the opening Credits! Very powerful piece of music. Love the melody in the transitional part of the composition, very cool!! This is just a glorious piece of composing, hats off for the originality. The more you listen the more this tune pulls you in!! Wowza!!!!!
Oh, God..........the ending is incredible!!!!

The nice thing about New Age - Meditative music, is that I get to create my own imagery when listening. So, when I listened to this I imagined travelling to the gem-laced spires of Helixia Prime and then ... oh! ... some cirrus clouds float by; enticing me to travel further to the mystic plains of the white butterflies. A jungle village of pleasant folks greet me to their world of spiraling 50 feet daffodils and blue-spotted ladybugs. The enticing pianist beckons me further to the waterfalls of blue hues and then resting back at my fireplace, sitting here, listening and dreaming to this fine-crafted piece of music.

Wasn't expecting the beautiful chords at the beginning. They got my attention. Sounded like an intro to a Deadmau5 tune.

Very relaxing music. The transition near the end is a nice touch, and gives it a bit of a classical feel.

The music gave me a sense of floating--I am not sure if that was your intent, but that's my initial observation. I liked the dynamics you built up with the arrangement and even on individual notes and chords. The song transitioned well between sections and kept me going on a "musical journey" of sorts. The melodic content was strong, but not to "in your face", which I think is good for new age type music.

A nice, lush, gentle and peaceful piece.

Beautiful music for many applications, definitely soundtrack material. Also wonderful for relaxation, meditation. I could also see a Cirque du Soleil performance with this as accompaniment.

Great laid back chill out composition. Very nice!!!

An extremely varied arrangement - coherence achieved via the percussion. This lengthy piece remains interesting right to the last note. Great job!

Well constructed and lovely instrumentation. The finished product sounds professional. It would be a good backing track in a movie.

Great job on this piece. Catchy but not at all cheesy. Great job about creating such a peaceful vibe!

Very relaxing and therapeutic piece!

Very nice and relaxing! Well played and the mix of instruments is a nice blend of sounds. I like the tribal drum change.
