Absolutely loved how expressive the violin was! As somebody who can't play violin it always irks me that I have to use the DAW - whether you recorded yourself or not it felt awesome to listen to throughout

Description
A relaxing, ambient track for Impressions #2
Comments
I liked the textures in the violins; they added a lot. The ambience is also very good! I definitely see the video game inspiration and would like to see this inside a game!

What Some Will Never WitnessI really liked this, very soothing. the only criticism I have is with the violin(cello maybe?). it is a bit loud in my opinion, but I think you should keep it there, just make it a little quieter.

What We Cannot ReachVery nice ambient and minimalist track. Very well mixed. For the cello, I suggest you to play with expression and modulation if your plugin allows it, it will help alot especially when you jump from a note to another so it does not sound too stiff. Good job !

Forever's EdgeI love cello, I'm not sure what resources you used but I think you can improve it, I recommend this solo cello legato library if you use full kontakt, it's free

Then, Now at the same timeBeautiful textures and harmonies, you've created a really nice motif out of the interaction between the instruments. For such a minimal arrangement, it sounds very full. I like the noisy fuzz in the koto-like plucked instrument. When the cello comes in at 1:47, it's really jarring and almost hurts my ears though.

Pilgrimage to Amida FallsHey really nice song! I thought the cello did get a bit outta control by the end of the track, but overall pretty balanced :)
