Description : improvised vocals in swedish, a lot of mumbo jumbo really. But fun to record my first tune in months. And yeah, I love that telecaster

Hey, this a future Kikajon classic to my ears! Very cool walking beat feel, and that telecaster sounds very sweet! I've always wanted to jam with one of those, but then I think about the effect it had on my first three piece band back around 1994... I still have the epiphone les paul that my friend smashed so his parents would buy him a tele, ha ha! Always liked the sound we had before that better. I guess I got a free damaged guitar out of the deal. The Tele's do have a killer pop-rock sound to them though. Impressive that the vocals were improvised. I always find that hard to do, especially without a bunch of chopping and editing later. Totally cool track! Fave!

Hey Spiv! It's kind of fun how a guitar can change the way you play. I would never have made this song on my stratocaster. I've never used a les paul, I were more into explorer or the flying v.

Hey Kika,great rockin tune man!..You wouldn't be the recently reincarnated soul of Herman Brood by any chance? haha....apart from an excellent downbeat and solid rock guitar with a great live feel,I love it that your singing in your native tongue!!..all too often European musicians feel compelled to adapt to English to get wider appeal or fit into the Western world's ingrained music industry template...sounds awesome mate keep it going man,big thumbs up!..cheers Dave :)

Thanks pjb! I can't imagine how swedish sounds for you – but it's som much simpler for me to ad-lib in swedish. Still the words come out making no sense - but I kind of like it doing it this way. Again, thank you for listening and commenting – much appreciated. /pmk

Nice to see you back around Brosef. This has a Lou Reed vibe for me. At least music wise. Vocally I wish they were louder in the mix. Dig the Guitar lead at the end alot.

Nice job. I would flesh out the vocals and boost them in the mix.

Thanks for the feedback, I tend to mix the vocals low, probably a confidence issue. Anyway, I'm glad you took your time listening and I will try to punch up the vocals. Again, thank you.

Thank you, Joe. It was a fun thing to do a saturday evening. And the vocals hardly makes sense to a swede either – even I don't understand the lyrics but that's improvisation for you. Take care.

Hey man, good to see ya! This mix is sounding pretty clear and punchy, nice job! Nice easy tempo to rock out to, can't stop my foot from tapping. Great guitar tracks, well played and the tone is nice and thick, gotta love those Fender Tele's! Reminds me a bit of Lou Reed.

I just did an update on garageband and played with it for a few minutes. There are some nice sounds in there, loved the stand up bass plugin they have.

More tunes please!

Aw, thanks Wayne. It was nice to get inspired. Got a few tunes in my head and somehow they might just pop out some days soon. Just to keep your feet tappin'. Cheers.

Nice track. Very prfesionnaly sounding. Nice and raw vocals. Could bve a bit louder maybe. But it is a great song!

Thank you. The song was recorded in my bedroom, on my laptop using only Garageband, a Yamaha soundcard, my Telecaster and my Iphone handsfree as a microphone. Final touch in Adobe Audition. It's fun to be sort of minimalistic.

Hey Kikajon, man I really enjoyed your track bro.
Reminds me a lot of Dire Straits or Mark Knophler.
Very cool slide too, that was a bit of a surprise. Your vocals are quite distinct and despite my lack of understanding Swedish I thought you did a great job. Drums and bass are really strong in here too.
I like your style man, I will be checking out some more of your material soon.

Description : I like to play with myself... Thats not how that sounded in my head lol. I finally am satisfied with my digital VST band. I have a Drum, Bass, Lead Guitar, Rhodes/Keyboard, Synth and some go-to Vocals.
Now all I need is some good ideas for tracks and more practice on my Mix/Mastering game.
This track is a slow 97.5 "Chill-ish", I'm trying out my new Band :)

PEACE...

Lyrics are literally just an absolutely abrasive and unrecognizable part of the verse to John Lennon's Working Class Hero which
illuminates my bullying more than any song I have come across ever.
