Lovely warm sounds you're creating here with your bass and effects in particular, and the voice wafts with beautiful clarity over the top. Good work! The only time I feel a bit underwhelmed is with the piano lines between 2:55 and 3:20, which somehow don't seem to balance out the rich, warm tone of the guitar. Maybe the effects just need to be a bit more expansive on that, or else perhaps a bit of real-time EQ adjustment might be in order.
Nice atmospherics at the start as well-- but I wonder whether they are just a touch overstated in terms of distracting from the lead vocal and lyrics. It just feels like maybe you're letting the cat too far out of the bag too early there.
It also sounds like you've been doing some careful automation work here, because I'm getting that sense of having my attention directed at all the nice features, and the balance also seems solidly locked in a way that smacks of automation. I think you might want to program in one more thing, though -- the effect tail on the vocal during the drop at 3:25-3:31 sounds rather odd, and might be better faded out there. There's something funny happening with the way the vibrato is hitting a feedback delay, I think.
Thanks for letting us all listen!
