Positive Comments: I love this kind of sound. Cara Dillon…Wailin Jenny’s etc. The instrumentation was more in line with what I think of for a fantasy video game. (I’m a former game developer, so that may be part of where my ear went haha) I found the harsh plucking still soothing. Usually, Harps sound abrasive when not soft, unlike here, good work! The underscore, of the strings, is very sweet. Loved this most. They were lush and organic sounding. Mixed well with the rest. I feel I could literally see green when I listened. So you’re doing something very, very right to make that happen <3 Constructive Comments: The vocals were not on part with what I expect from this genre. It’s one of the few kinds of songs the standards are just, so high. Don’t be afraid to fine-tune in Melodyne. It can be done without sounding auto-tuned. Your vocals are good, they would be fine for a live setup, studio versions have a higher bar in my opinion. For how long it is, and not having a clear verse/chorus structure, I actually recommend making the lead vox a woodwind or some other sort of lead orchestral piece. The backing vocals added a lot of texture and would make it a perfect soundtrack song, rather than a Celtic/folk singer-songwriter peice.
