Default "When quiet is too loud" (original)

Good morning to all of you!
A small minimalistic piece, just recorded: When quiet is too loud?" Maybe you like it. I´m enjoying your comments! Thanks for listening!

Wow, great tone and recording. I also like how you left it unresolved at the end. Very cool piece.

Very nicely done, Andre, both your writing and playing. No need to change a thing! That said, to make it moodier, more pensive, what about playing it a bit slower, with more "space" between phrases, as if you're reflecting on lost love or deep disappointment, or maybe some other situation when even quiet guitar playing is too loud? Maybe with a touch of reverb and the sound of crickets, frogs, and loons from the edge of a swamp at sundown? OK, that might be too cheesy, but that's the kind of mood your title evokes in me.

Don't care what the name of the song is - that one goes to 11. Seriously, pleasant and skillful.

Mood piece with picking pattern hook. Sounds good. Tempo seems right to me.

Beautiful mood, playing, tone and recording. I love the single note lines, just beautifully phrased. Lovely!
