Star Rider - Zappo

Smooth track... love the quitar keep up!

So, a bit more detail - as promised.

Gentle ringing chords and cymbal work to set the scene.

Then introduce some bass guitar. Maybe those guitar chords get a little boring but it all sits fine.

Good solid drums but I'm having trouble hearing the kick. A more solid/louder one would be good.

Lead guitar is pleasant and this is all smooth stuff. I guess this has a bit of a jazz prog rock vibe to it. I'm up to 4 mins now and those guitar chords are still there so I they've probably been there too long.

Either remove them by this point or maybe add some other FX to them or try playing them on a different guitar.

5:42 we drop down into some gentle, groovy stuff. Bass guitar has a good tone there.

Percussions makes me think of water. Would soundtrack a river scene in the heart of the jungle very well.

Tell me how you're doing your drums and percussion. Percussion loops, perhaps?

On second listen, I'm now thinking I don't like this as much as the first time. I'm noticing its meandering, wandering nature a lot more and it's maybe all a little too laid back to maintain real interest and excitement for me. But could be some very effective sountrack work.

well done.

Great stuff, man!

We have some things in common, I think. Like very long tracks!

I will give this a much more detailed review tomorrow. But it will be a good one, don't worry about that.

Great, lazy and also kind of funky, chilled melodic faroutness that appeals to my sense of melody and space and preferred tempo.

I don't see many people on here (apart from myself, obviously) with lengthy, deep far out stuff like this.

More tomorrow...

Hi Zappo!

I'm very happy to know your artwork in this song...this is fabulous, professional and moody...your guitar usage is hyper pro...those feelings what you put in your play is naturally borned and could never learn...huge respect that you play like this...your music is classical already in it's life:-)

Thanx for the upload, Danke
