Had to listen a few times to catch it all. Very cool, i like the horns and how the beat pulls the song in and out.

very nice you three,,, an interesting journey on this late, last day of July evening,, well played,, the synth trumpet takes on a life of its own an almost other worldly feeling at times..........

Reading what goes in to work like this, I am in way over my head, but it sure sounds good. Almost ethereal with a comforting rhythm. Very clever!

This was one of the better collaboration experiences I have had - I really like what we ended up with.

interesting image, Tess, since Carlos said the following about the piece: "the final piece sounds like a band from some unknown planet playing at a Martian cosmodrome while aliens wait to embark for their galactic journeys." so i guess it does sound alien-ish ;) thanks a lot for listening!

Very otherworldly! The first 1 min or so makes me feel like I'm infiltrating an alien wine bar (hope nobody notices my dirty boots). Lovely changes in mood here - especially the build up of tension to the 3 minute mark, and then the feeling that you're eavesdropping. Great ride!
