Sweet and jazzy. Has a nice samba kind of groove to it, and I really like the melancholy edge on the melody. A lovely instrumental :-)

Sweet and delicate. What a nice combination of sounds. Love the upright bass, the soft background, the finger snaps at the end... not to mention the cool progression on the uke.

I thought that I might tire of this but you changed it up as it progressed and made it surprising and interesting.

I find that I am extremely satisfied with listening all the way through and for a second time as I write now :-)

cheers,

ian

Very nice instrumental Nick. Simple arrangement but very effective and some clever chord changes to hold the interest. Really catchy melody line as well. You really evoked the changing seasons, well done.

Nice one Nick.
 I Like how the piano takes over the melody at the 2.50 mark.
Its a haunting little melody,sticks in your head.
You certainly have taken to that uke.
A great crisp,crystal clear recording as well.
All good.

Delightful track and so well recorded - crystal clear. I like the chord progressions that alternatively sound sweet & bitter creating a nice yet restless ambience.

Peaceful and relaxing piece of music. To my ear this has a High Llamas vibe, which is a good thing. Nice entry for the fest, Nick!

Oh yes this is lovely Nick.

I was looking for inspiration and I've certainly found it here!

Thanks everyone for taking the time to listen and for your kind words.

This was a piece I'd recently finished and coincidentally fitted the theme. In lockdown working from home I spend a lot of time on Skype calls on mute and having the uke in hand makes the time go quicker.

Like the way it builds, then drops back to the basics.  Memorizing!

Uke sounds great... very well recorded. Perfect evening listening as the sun goes down.

I like that chord progression. Kind of a subtle texture/color. And the slow build of an arrangement works very, very well. That piano to end is a delicate, but gorgeous, touch.
