Wow! Ashley I absolutely love what you do! I think what you do is similar to what I do and I've really enjoyed going through your pieces and having a listen, you're very talented. I love your wide range of styles and the way you've managed to adapt your music to pit different genres (i.e. jazz, classical) I can still tell its you at the same time even though the genres are widely ranging and I think that is a gift.
I especially love your third track, it is gorgeous, your instrumentation works really well and the choir sound sound adds a certain darkness which makes me feel a certain way.
Very well done! Keep up the good work!
