Not sure about what Jordan said, but the synth-string pad could do with longer attack. Pad and organ are both way too clean. I would try a pitch envelope on the strings, making them start tuned down a bit and fading in some vibrato (slightly different for each voice might be optimal) The organ asks for tube amp / tube warmth and perhaps leslie. But the notes themselves could be improved. No strong point of my own music ... but anyway: Especialy at the start, the lead should be more staccato. A bit short-breathed, impulsive. Try increasing the whole tempo, it's not jogging through the night, right? -- Thorsten Wilms
