Listen To Brand New Start Blues Song By Darkreine At Looperman.com

Awsome!

I'd make a new version just for you so that the sax and your singing could take first place. As they should!

I made this song for you to sing it. I just didn't know it! heh heh...

So, I've had a listen now to the original. I clearly didn't read your track description correctly as I thought you were doing a cover.

But no, you came up with the words (and sang them) so it's even better than I thought.

Original is good but crying out for a good vocal - which it got.

Good luck with the minor fixes. Small changes can make a real difference - especially if you do lots of them. Sometimes they make a difference in ways that people can't actually express.

So, if you dropped a drumbeat in a bar and then fixed it, some people wouldn't be able to tell you what had been changed - it would just feel better to them.

This is the way I try to think about all the heavily detailed micro-editing and mixing I do - all those little things will add up to something significant in the end.

This is really extremely good, as everyone has already said. Vocals and guitar really stand out (very effortless soulful voice eg on "behind", "heavy load") but it's great right from the first drum fill and then guitar solo etc.

3:13-3:16 guitar reminiscent of some of George Harrison's playing on his classic Something.

There is indeed a bit of Willie Nelson in the vocals (wouldn't have though of it if I hadn't read it).

I don't know the original but will listen later.

Maybe I can help by suggesting some minor "fix" type of improvements.

I can clearly hear an audio pop edit just before 1:24.

Guitar solo starting 1:26 is great but too loud, especially, but not only, the first few notes. I'd just lower any offending note's volume - easy fix.

2:08 the drums drop a beat (I should add it's a good and suitable drum track).

3:32 I can hear what might well be you opening your mouth to sing so it's another sort of minor pop (maybe vocals recorded without pop shield).

Final fadeout is not complete so track cuts off a little too abruptly (easy fix).

These are really very minor quibbles but I believe if something's good, why not make it even better. These minor problems are really easy to fix though playing and singing like this certainly isn't.

If you don't fix these things, there's a good choice no one else will ever even mention them as they don't get in the way of what is an excellent piece of music.

Easily the best thing I've heard from you though the John Martyn cover was also very good.

the music has a beautiful, settled quality to it. everything flows. the vocal sounds great and the overall mix too. is that you singin, sir?

three thumbs up!!!

This is amazing work Kenny. I can feel the emotions on this one. Good mixing like a pro. The reign of Kenny has begun! :) - Mr.B

Willie country blue....you just have the voice for this stuff Kenny...like the minimal kind of mix (although the harmonica does clutter it a wee bit)...something I have been trying to do for a while...but I end up having fun with all the vst stuff & it doesn`t always stay as minimal as I intend...anyway....this is just fantastic listening ...a great song...top notch accompaniment....whats not to love....great job...Ed

very nice - shades of Willie. Didn't love the harmonica but loved the voice.

Yes this deserved a download. Great lyrics and your soulful world weary voice fits great with this . I like the sax with this, not convinced on the harmonica (maybe it needs to be backed down in the mix a bit as it overshadows the guitar)Overall Great job!

This is groovy! Nice laid back sound! Your vocals are spectacular! Very pro sounding mix! Nice one!

Those words...I could've written those once upon a time, love em.

Your voice makes this so epic, can't tell you how much I love this. I can imagine the end of a movie, guy on the motorcyle kissed woman one last time and is now riding in the wind.

Very nice guitar solo. Musiclover38's got some REALLY good stuff over there at his shop.

I think the only thing I don't like is that the harmonica seems to be causing a musical traffic jam when it comes in at the end.

I am standing and applauding at the effective simplicity here, awesome job!

I like this one, Darkreine! Great vocals. Cool stuff, my friend.

Cheers,
Scott

Well, musiclover's is a splendid track!
And you put the right add-on!

Your voice is so harmonic (love that light reverb!) also the lyrics fits very well and add some poetry...

Looking forward to hearing your next track, Kenny, it's always a pleasant surprise!

Ciao, Stefano

good music,good music man..luv this one.

Hello Darkreine, The vocals and music combined give a strong and sure feeling of what you're getting across here. Sounds great. This helped let me walk away from some past thoughts and I thank you for the share. This is real and something most of us can feel. Respects to you all. Enjoyed very much. Peace.

Great Job BB Darkreine! Awesome track! I love the Blues.

Wow, love love LOVE this!
The tone in your voice compliments the laid back feeling of the instrumental and the instrumentation perfectly to create a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Then Slap comes in with his legendary sax and harmonica skills ha.
I felt at complete ease listening to this and could do so for a long time!

Pretty good song. Nice job!

Awesome. Very, very nice.

Salut Kenny ....

Waooooou! Je te retrouve.

A great moment of music, with your talent who so is customary.
I really like this version .... A great achievement for me.

Dan

P.S: Une musique pour danser toutes les nuits d'été quand la lune est au rendez-vous ....

Really enjoyed it. Your vocal part is good: like your deep "bluesy" voice.
Ciao, Domenico
