SOFTLY - Mackit

Smooth beat

wonderful beat

You know I am a Big Fan of yours- I love a great guitar and you always deliver on all fronts with outstanding playing and musical composition on all your songs just a pleasure to listen to -don't know how I missed another Jewel! Fila

so sweet

Great work, nice slow guitar, coupled with nice effects, a solid drum beat that you cant go wrong with :)

WOWOWOWOWOW!

If I send you a music track can you lay your guitar skills on it?

Hey Mac Man...I owe you an apology...(my comment on your young age is likely off side)...I was reading profiles on the Loop last night...and while I was reading sevenola`s I hit play on your track....and went WOW....this doesn`t sound like a 19 year old musician...it was just too good....so, anyway..sorry about that...and it is a really good track by the way.....Ed

This is nice smooth jazz... I like this a lot. It sounds a like something that I would compose. I play a lot of jazz chords. You are playing the guitar bro... keep it up!

Upon another listen I really really like this tune. It bridges Jazz-chill and hip hop in some very interesting ways. The percussion is so good on this one. It also reminds me a bit of Roxy Music's Avalon album in it's lounge-slick-cool-attitude. nice work!

Hi mackit....at your age I could have never come close to doing anything like this...I was reading your bio so was a bit surprised (pleasantly) to find a chillout track on top of your list...I notice some comments on production..actually it sounds really good to me so I`m not sure why...perhaps a little widening on the accompaniment instruments??...but we know that reality is often best represented by just some placement of the instruments in the sound stage rather that too much artificial processing...The music is really well done..the composition shows that a lot of thought has been put into it..I often insert a ms (mid-side) processor vst on some tracks just to keep the away from centre (and the lead) a bit but thats a matter of taste ...as is reverb and the other things we use...I enjoyed this one just the way it is...and listening to this kind of music composition from a young guy makes me think you are going to really raise above the crowd in the future..You`re part way there now...Your passion and investment in learning shows....keep on doing it...I`m sitting here with a smile after listening...way to go....Ed

Toy Amp was only a description I didn't mean any harm.

I loved the song very good work. I think the mixing needs some tweaking unless you meant to make it sound like to was being played through a toy amp. That being said you are very talented!!!!

I usually skip the 'chill out' tracks, but I saw 'jazz' so had to check it out, and glad I did. Very good job!

Cheers,

Delicate and elegantly sensual . The guitar playing is lacework . Wow, I loved listening to this little jewel !
Thx a lot for this soft beauty .

it was really cool
smooth is the first word that finds its way into my head
also im a big fan of the mix
its really awesome !
keep at it ^^

thanks for share

I love this style of music. Memory jogging music.

woow man, this is amazing! i love it

A little jazz chill, cool !
Really nice balance between the piano and guitar throughout, it flows ever so sweet. I totally dig adding the pad in there, it really smooth's it out.
This really put me in a good mood this morning bro.
Thanks and a big thumbs up.

I'm beginning to become a fan of "chill out" tracks and this is why. This is really awesome!

This is so smooth. Great musicianship and you captured a such a chilled mood in sound. Agree about sharpening the edge on the guitar, without losing the warmth mebbe, but the mix really shines in all areas.

Thanks for a great listen.

Peace!

How smooth is this?? Very relaxing and chilled, I have to say that the production sounds fine to me, even on my in- ear phones! Excellent work here my friend!

Very nice mellow groove....chilled me right out!

Great song,cool melody and arrangement. I agree about the panning ! maybe drop the 200hz a bit in the eq to gain more snap on the drums and stereo widen. Nice soft pad at 2:46 btw.
Steve

cool one!

Lovely!

Nice bro sounds like im watching PBS...

I really like this. the guitar work is so accurate and smooth, and the orchestration and mix is great. I would have given the Guitar just a touch more edge, and moved the piano and guitar apart a little in position, say piano left, guitar right just to give some separation. Anyway that's all subjective.
Great work

Bob
