Flight of An Angel

Pretty sweet! I thought the, for lack of a better phrase, "rhythm" guitar that comes in at 15 seconds seems to be pretty loud and kind of buries the "lead" guitar that opens the track. Its not wrong, and it might be a stylistic choice. Just bringing attention to it.

What does stand out to me in a more objective sense is the drums. Are they programmed? The hi-hats are very robotic and stiff. Consistent volume and timing greatly contrasts with the looseness of the guitar playing. The snare and bass drum are fine sounding how they are, but the hi-hats could really use some nuance and flow.
 
I really liked the main melody of this one. The guitars sounded very nice and at one spot I could almost hear a pedal steel quality. Sounds like it could easily be a vocal song as well. Enjoyed it .. mark
 
A lot to like here. A "Wonderful Tonight" lead motif over a different chord structure, with a spaghetti western vibe. I don't care for the rain effect and think some nice natural drums should come in at 30 sec or 43 sec at the latest to give it some rhythm. Lower the volume of the second guitar slightly, and warm it up a bit so it blends better.
 
Thank you for the feedback folks - I've added a rhythmic element to the first half and changed the hi hat sound. I'm going to experiment more with the volume balance between the lead and rhythm as well as the hi hat pattern velocities.

Usually not a fan of instrumentals, but this is nice. Pleasant to listen to. As others have said, work on the balance between all the guitars. Good job.
