Fantastic :-) It is a beat of maybe 65 bpm? Normally I'm up to something faster. But your arrangement kept me listening. "There was the end of this phrase" ...now I wanted to know what comes in the next  one. Nice tension and release in a song, which don't got so many obvious contra-points. Good  job. I heared it over my computer speakers only, but mix seemed to be fine as well.

Good work!

Hi Philipp
Yes you are exactly right 65 BPM it was actually 130 but I did it in 1/2 time
FYI The strings are Spitfire BBC Orchestra , simple chords with some top notes
in harmony on the 2nd part I just copied & transposed it up 1 3rd

Thanks for listening & your comments are well received

Very chilled atmosphere...
I liked the way the vocals have been recorded and produced, and  I liked the 'heart is made of plastic' lyrics a lot too.
There's quite a long instrumental section after 1:04 before the vocals come back in at 2:07, I think I'd be tempted to trim that section down to half length (as the vocals are one of the key hooks of the track) so you get a song about 3 1/2 minutes.
It's definitely got a slick, poolside, sunset vibe.  Nice work.
It's all too beautiful.

Hi @subvibe,

I really enjoyed this a lot. Love the mix between the electronic sound, the guitar and your voice. Felt like immediately transported "far away" :-)

Regards
Alex
