Description : My fellow Looperman ShortBusMusic pointed me in the direction of this fantastic acapella (thanks Bear)

The timing is a little odd and there are a couple of 3/4 bars in there to keep you on your toes. Acoustic guitar on one side and my Godin Xtsa on it's acoustic setting on the other. Electric down the middle picking out the chords, acoustic piano, strings, EZdrums with a tam mirroring the snare, an arpeggio thing going on in the background and a self indulgent guitar solo. I had a great time putting this together!!

This is really good Richie, wow. The vocals are great and the music. shhh. The music feels too good. I listen and get lost in this moment. When I hear your music man I feel good all the time then when the song has finished I start to think "Now this is real music that anyone could feel" then I realize that the so called "music" I make is wrong. My apologies. Thank you for sharing your great music with all of us. I appreciate hearing such good sounds put together. Keep creating and have fun Richie. I enjoyed the listen, as always. Peace.

What's up Richie. How's it going man. I always say that I'm sorry for not being around but I'm so into music I lose myself into my own world. I wish I was a vampire so I had all the time to listen and review everyone. Haha .

On the serious note, this is a serious track bro. dam. I want to jump off the subject for a second and say those fellow musicians/producers and engineers, when you make awesome tracks like this make sure you back up your work. Trust me. LOL

I went through moments where I have lost valuable stuff and wanted to pull my hair out but that's another story. lol

Sorry for the blabbering :P I enjoyed this tune a a lot Richie. Take care. :)

What a great ballad! Excellent crisp production and a well balanced mix. Amelia June's vocal is excellent and I really like the Larry Carlton-esque sound on the guitar solo. Top track Richie.

Hey Jamie

Always good to hear from you. Thanks for the great comments and how did you know Larry Carlton was a hero of mine? I try to emulate even if it's only the sound I can get near!!

Thanks again.

Dang man, you have some talent putting a song together. This sets such a somber mood. Reminds me a bit of a Sarah Mcglachlan piece. Emotional and peaceful, intriguing and wonderful, just to give a few words to describe this. Thanks for sharing this!

Hi Wayne

Thanks ever so much for stopping by and commenting. I really appreciate it. It's a great vocal track and Amelia June has fantastic timbre to her voice. I was trying to be very careful I didn't destroy any of that in the process of producing the track. Glad you enjoyed it and thanks again.

Hi Chris

Thanks very much for the comments. I really appreciate it. Amelia June's vocal is just so good I felt I had to put something together using it. Glad you liked the production and your comment "very precise" is indeed a great compliment. I do try hard to get it right and spend ages deliberating over a single note and if it's in the right place or not!

The guitar patches are mostly those within Logic although my Roland GR55 has some good sounds in too. f$*'%ing good I'll take any day - thank you.

I haven`t caught up with all of your tracks yet Richie, but every time I hit play on another one I am totally taken in by the talent....like this one for example...Beautiful vocal for certain, but being an old guitar guy (whose listening skills have expanded over the years I think) I pay a lot of attention to the instruments, composition etc...I would run over the word limit to try & describe everything I like about this one...so let me just say a very well done to both of you...This one goes on my MP3 player...beautiful work....Ed (P.S:.I don`t own a Godin (yet) but they are one very high quality instrument that don`t get near as much attention as they should...I have played a few in the music store & love the feel of the slightly flatter neck radius...you`ve got your XTsa sounding extra sweet)

Hi Ed

I'm glad you liked the "guitar only" approach to the track. I just felt like getting back to a basic three guitars and drums live feel was appropriate. Thanks for your very kind comments - much appreciated.

The Godin XTSA is a lovely guitar in many respects. It's beautifully made from high quality materials (never had a guitar with an ebony fretboard before - really nice) and has three distinctive playing opportunities. Normal electric (two humbuckers and a single coil), acoustic (using the built in transducers) and MIDI using the Roland GR55 compatible connection. So versatile. Anyway, I could go on and on (and on) about guitars so I'll stop right now.

Thanks again and always a great pleasure to have you visit and comment.

Regards

Hey Mim Fouree

You are so kind, thank you for the comments. Glad you liked the track and my interpretation of it. I had fun putting it together and always enjoy the challenge of a guitar solo (and trying to make it sound like something I haven't already played before - always difficult). Thanks again P.

Richie, what a wonderful treatment of Amelia June's vox. I love everything about this, from the guitar solo, to the mix, to the pacing (wow, just brilliant) to the beautiful chord progressions. I've heard just about every interpretation of her pella, but this one ranks right up there at the top.

Superb in every aspect, and in every way possible.

Bravo my friend. And a huge thanks for the download, straight to my all time favorites.

Hey Bear

Good to hear from you. Thanks for the comments, particularly about the "pacing". I wanted it to be a bit "sleepy" but with plenty of interest to keep the listener engaged. I had lots of fun puting this together and thanks for the link on your track to the acapella on Mixter.

Best regards and thanks again.

As wrote some time ago Bear, It's an a capella which was incorporated a multitude of times (also by me for that matter). Here, it is an aditional a very good sound quality.
Fantastic moment .... Fantastic guitar too ....

Description : the other end of the scale from me, yep people, this is a ballad. its for all the people who have lost somebody long before their time was due,
i used my experience of tragic loss and how i hid my mental health issues that stemmed from it while writing it, its repetitive but has fresh verses
its to Matthias music Du Bist Nicht Mehr Hier almost the same title, He has suffered too that's why he wrote the music and dedicated it to his brother. i hope i have done it justice

He was a simple man. A high school teacher; wife, kids. He never thought in all his life that he'd end up alone in the middle of the Apocalypse, his family dead, doing his best to survive against all odds. The zombies have grown hungrier. More agressive. They have him trapped. There's nothing he can do now.

Description : I intentionally made this song minimalistic. The drums I spliced together from some drum loops I had, there's one other loop in the mix, the rest of the instruments are played by me (bass and synths). I used the excellent (and free) Cakewalk z3ta+ vst and the BBC Symphony vst. My intention was to create a very simple and dream like ambient track. Feel free to download or comment. Feedback is always welcome. Thanks.
