Description : Covering a band like Floyd is extremely challenging but you learn so much while playing and mastering; not to mention how much fun I am having. I think I am hooked.
I am using my PRS Custom for the main rhythm part throughout. The accent rhythm and solo are performed on my Les Paul.

Wow! I am very very impressed with this cover. I have tried over the years to cover a song or two and a dismal failure followed. You not only kept to the Floyd your vocals gave it a unique flair and was a great plus to its already great sound! Yes very impressive!

Bro, looks like that new studio set up is working out nicely for you! Great cover of what is one of the best songs ever written. Like Ed ssid, pretty close to the original and dude, you flat nailed the solo, hahaha....OUTSTANDING!!!!

Looking good brother. Here's to a great 2013. And onward and upward to part 3 of the series from Pink Floyd :)

Bear,
Thanks man. Yeah the solo was a looming challenge on this one. The more Floyd I do, the more Mr. Gilmour teaches me...the guy can play like no other. But yeah, I got it. I tried using the Les Paul for the main rhythm but humbuckers gave it too fat of a sound to try to mimic a Stratocaster. The new studio is a gem for sure and I have been blessed. I have a couple more Floyd in mind...
Mark.

Description : This is a complete redo of a Jazz track I wrote a while ago and uploaded earlier this year. I attempted to remaster the original, and it bit me. So I bit back and here's the result. Jazz with a Latin flair. For those interested, I mastered this using the HUM JAAL mastering limiter. I'm loving that BEAST! Take a listen and share your thoughts Enjoy!

Description : What up LM family, next up is a track we put together last week, and one of my current favs. I got the stems from Nea Mera's remix of 'Make Em Feel This' and made some dope samples that really accent this track. He said it's hard for him to hear everything that I did with his stems, but I also know that LM is full of audiophiles who will pick out everything in a heartbeat. So Remember, this was your suggestion, Nea Mera LOL. I remembered to list the personel this

Description : "Tears of the Moon" is just a melody practice of mine, so that's why it sounds a little sloppy, as always Don't forget to share your thoughts and ideas with me. They help me a lot with improving myself. Special thanks for KayOs2.

Description : Shorten My Days is a deeply personal prayer about examining the true intentions behind our relationship with God. It wrestles with the uncomfortable question of whether we seek Him because we genuinely love Him, or because of what we want from Him and the world around us. It is a plea for God to strip away selfish motives, sustain us through life's battles, and teach us to live in a way that brings glory to His name.
Guitar: Nameless.

Description : 'Main Barbaad Ho Gaya' means 'I got destroyed in loving you'. I had created this track last year. The vocals are AI. However the music and the tune is mine. Hope you enjoy this tragic love track. I was inspired by the Bollywood movie 'Saiyaara' when creating this track.
