Thank you very much for your submission. This song has some nice moments for sure. Ultimately I found the vocal to be nice and pleasant. However a little too gravely in the delivery for me. Just a preference and nothing more. Thanks again.
Hi Ed Kirwan, Thank you for submitting your craft to us for a possible placement and review, Interesting concept, but the vocal delivery feels inconsistent.Your sound is unique, but this particular track doesn’t match what I’m looking for right now.

Hello. The song, with its soft, enveloping melody, strongly stands out for its good sound, with a rough, hoarse but tuned voice that is very well supported by those guitar arpeggios and that background violin with good acoustics that surround the whole piece. When the voice falls silent, the collective instrumentation takes over very fully and can be appreciated. Its structure repeats and its intensity is maintained with the same idea. The track differs from the playlist’s style, but everyone in the office liked it and it will be added. Kind regards!

Hola. La canción con su melodía suave y envolvente llama poderosamente la atención por su buen sonido con una voz áspera carrasposa y entonada que es muy bien acompañada por esos arpegios de guitarra y por ese violín de fondo con esa buena acústica que envuelve todo su trayecto. Al callar la voz, su instrumentalización en conjunto se hace cargo de forma muy completa y se deja apreciar. Su estructura se repite y su intensidad es mantenida con la misma idea. El tema difiere del estilo de la playlist, pero ha gustado a todos en la oficina y será incorporada. Saludos cordiales!
Hi, Ed Kirwan! It was great to receive “In Your Arms At Last - Acoustic” for review. The track has an acoustic and sentimental approach. However, the orchestral elements, such as the violin, combined with the grander timbres, lead the song toward a more epic aesthetic, different from the sound we currently seek. We appreciate you sharing your music, Ed! Wishing you success with your upcoming releases.
Hii, dear Ed Kirwan, how are you doing? Thank you for trusting us with your song "In Your Arms At Least." We really enjoyed the beautifully balanced dynamics in the track, carrying such a touching melancholic feel. The way the violin is guided around the 02:20 mark is wonderfully executed, creating a deeply serene and calming atmosphere. However, the vocal delivery brings a slight retro aura to the song's foundation. This nostalgic mood gently steps away from the more contemporary aesthetic we are looking for across our playlists right now. Because of this, we unfortunately have to decline your track at this time. We hope to cross paths with you here again somewhere down the road. If possible, please consider leaving us a review on the platform and letting us know if this feedback was helpful in any way, your opinion means the world to us. Wishing you great success in your music career, and we hope our paths cross again.
Hey there , nice track . Really liked the vocals , vibes and emotions . However , at the moment we are looking for a bit more jolly mood , Crystal Fighters style . Rest , it has got some really good potential. Good luck! can't wait to hear more tracks from you.

The music fits my playlist, I really like the tone of the guitar. However, the mix of your vocal sounds too unclear and muffled for my liking. Sorry for declining.
Hey there, very beautiful tonal palette, first off. It's really nice and organic and they work well together. The singing is really well done also, and really creative, as are the variations. I still have to say, on the technical side, the vocal recording / processing would need a bit of tweaking, at least that's what it sounds like from here. Not exactly sure, but it sounds quite brittle, and could have been and EQ issue as well. That said, it really is excellent songwriting, I want to underline that. All the best!
Hello, Ed Kirwan, how are you? I listened to In Your Arms At Last - Acoustic. You bring a light touch and a nostalgic Country feel to the track. Despite the elegance of your vocals, I noticed a more retro quality in the sound, which doesn't quite align with the more contemporary Chill direction of our playlists. I hope to see you here again. You have real talent! And don't forget to leave a positive rating for our profile. Nage, Chill Connections
Hello, Ed Kirwan, How are you? Thank you for sending us your song! The instrumental stood out for creating a pleasant atmosphere, with well-balanced percussion and a violin that added more depth to the arrangement in moments such as at 2:20. However, I felt that the vocals sounded somewhat muffled and lower in volume compared to the instrumental, which ended up affecting the overall listening experience. In our playlists, we look for vocal performances that can establish a stronger connection with the listener. We wish you the best of luck with your upcoming releases and throughout your musical journey!
Hola Ed Kirwan! La temática gira en torno al amor, la conexión y esa sensación de paz que aparece cuando finalmente encontramos nuestro lugar junto a otra persona. Es una idea romántica y cercana, con potencial para generar una identificación genuina en el oyente. El formato acústico aporta un carácter más personal y delicado a la canción, permitiendo que la emoción y el mensaje ocupen un lugar central. Los instrumentos que has elegido utilizar son llamativos y ocupan un papel importante en tu canción. Sin embargo, considero que por momentos se escucha más alto el volumen de la instrumentación que el de tu voz, y se pierde un poco. Un balance más ajustado en esos puntos hubiera ayudado a resaltar aún más la emoción y el impacto de la canción, asi que por este motivo no podre compartir tu cancion en esta oportunidad.
