It's a mellow d&b piece - quite minimalist (but hopefully 'complete').

Any comments very welcome!

Heavy Mellow!

...subtle, minimal, very...nice.

Drifting, dreaming...

I wonder what it would sound like without these drums? I find them distracting me a little bit.

Good tune, crying for vocals, or some kind of lead instrument for a melody?

i like it.
personally, i would like the sounds to be a bit more integrated. on my little speakers, it seems like there is the drum part and then way in the backround are the synths(which really are in a different room).

gary has right I think.
I like the song very much, but the drums are a bit naked, and they also sound rather clean, as loose samples so to say.
A bit grunge would complete the mix I think

Good work anyway

I don´t care about rooms, great feel to this Royston. Sounds like an extreme chilled out holiday.
Welcome back.

Thanks guys. My friends were in debate as to whether it should be played in a supermarket or an elevator...

I find it nice to put on when I'm doing the washing up!

I was in a two stock supermarket, where a woman in the elevator was doing the washes up, while she was listening to your song that came out the ceiling speaker.
She looked totally happy

I shall move on from my new genre/style of "Elevator D&B" and next invent..."Paternoster House"!
