It's very pretty/beautiful.
I've never heard the original, and am not familiar with it, but this version sounds very nice.

No need for apologies to the authors!
Haven't heard the original version but since it's vocal and with a guitar this is a very well done remix!
Very nice to listen to. Well balanced mix in my humble opinion :)

Nice overall feel and beat. I wish the piano and cello had a bit more treble brightness to it, though that could be an effect of my poor and rushed listening environment.
Is this a sad song?

Heya,
wow, this is really a very relaxing tune.
I also don't know the original tune, but your version is a nice song and does not necessarely feel like a christmas song for me.
All the best

This remix is really well done ! I like your mix it's 100% Xmas compatible, quiet, nice and beautiful.
Very nice stereo panning inkl. automation ...makes a hearable difference. Result: everything's transparent. Nothing seems to lay over each other.
I see you used a lot of mp2reverb instances. Try to use a 1-3 sendtracks with different reverb settings instead. Nonetheless, your usage of reverb
sounds ok. You used a filter/eq behind almost every reverb. Normally there's the rule: EQ before reverb if you want to equalize the instrument sound,
EQ/filter after reverb (in send channel) to alter the sound of the reverb.
Moreover, you did a good EQing in master channel:
It's brave to reduce the bass freqs like you did, but at least in my headphones this gives those shiny and bright Xmas feeling. Nice !
Good low cutting, for high cutting a softer roll off could be better than the butterworth8n. Try to use a high shelve filter (see preset "gentle roll off" for filter 3, but adjust this preset !). I used to use the butterworth 8n, in the past too, but a softer roll off seems to be better.
Extrapoints for the Snow ASCII in Renoise song comment and instrument list !
Well done !

I checked out the original (?) on youtube, and I definitely like your version more. :)
I have a pretty awesome snow landscape outside my window now, and this song fits perfectly.
