Last Man Standing - BigPete

Good song, very strong in the production department....
All the guitar sounds play their roll perfectly...

Crazy mix lots of flavour....

Peace....TG.

Wow, i think on the time 1980/1990.

Not sure if I've ever commented on one of your tracks before. Pity you didn't describe the instruments and what you're doing here as it helps me evaluate what's going on. So I'll just have to guess.

Pleasant piano intro. Acoustic guitar that I think might be VST plus a lead, emotive one on top. Then another panned to the left but a bit strummier.

Drums and piano playing a good melody.

It's a fat rock kit you have here. Have you got it sort of reverse panned? I ask because hat is on the right and ride/bell cymbal on the left, the opposite way round. Not a problem, I just wondered. Busy kick and it's a snare sound I like.

2:27 little drum pause but good the way the strummy guitar continues. Then we get some far out lead synth and strings added to the two other guitars in the mix. This is a big, thick mix - the kind I like and like to do myself.

3:32 good brass rise.

4:08 sax that I think must be a real one. Your playing? I have no way of knowing. It's good.

4:41 guitar solo has too agressively screaming a sound. Playing's pretty good but the sound really dominates the mix. Seems to push everything else back.

This is big and heavy due to the busy mix but also kind of chilled out. Sort of pumping emotive rock. Nice bookend as well with the return to the piano. I do that sort of stuff a lot in my own music.

Mix is good and my only problem is that guitar solo so well done.

Hello BigPete!

Epic track...atmospherical and live...like the tone of every instruments...what instrus did you play? maybe all? :-) sax too? :-)
Incredible feeling I had, after listening this opus...
Your drum sound could be a model for us who like 'live' music...

Much respect, Danke

Immediately I hear a great track captured. In my opinion everything is created and mixed very well. From the melodies to the tones is just right. The layering and transitioning is perfect I thought. The combination of this instrumental rock with that cinematic feel definitely strong and enjoyable to hear. Like your live expressions here, making the music speak full. Absolutely enjoy that sax and solo guitar pieces. Well produced track. Did you create all this from scratch? Really outstanding track. Appreciate you sharing this with us. Motivated. Stay this way. Peace.
