Nice tune! And a good dark tone.

FWIW... to my amateur ear it sounds like either old strings or that you could perhaps add some sparkle by rolling off some of the lows below, say, 150 Hz and then adding a little boost right around 10-12 kHz.

Unless it was recorded live by a river, I'm not sure you need the water noises throughout.

Thanks...I added the background nature sounds for kicks. ;)

For miking I used a Neumann TLM103 and I was pretty close to it....probably hearing some proximity effect giving the sound more lows.
