The Thrill Is Back - Rhodesy

Just when I think I've heard all of the great guitar players on Looperman, I blindly stumble upon another. God, this is really good. You have mad skills that translate beautifully into real, honest to goodness, music. That guitar solo is just about as tasty as it gets.

WONDERFUL!!!! From start to finish this one is a hit. Definitely added to favorites and man, I am glad I found your work. I hope all is well.

Hi.

When I first heard this I thought it reminded me of some of my own music.

Then I saw Evisma had commented and thought he might say the same thing. And he did.

I think perhaps there is no key change in the whole track (something I struggle with a lot in my own music making) though it's not a problem.

Anyway, one of my first thoughts is how much your main chord (0:02) reminds me of a couple of INXS songs. I think The Gift and Need You Tonight.

First couple of seconds reverse fadein remind me a lot of the intro to Hendrix's Foxy Lady.

Pretty powerful, banging drums and you've got ride cymbal layered with pedal hat/shaker - the kind of thing I also do.

0:30 decent synth melody that returns a lot throughout the track.

0:45 guitar is very cool and funky. Simple kind of melodic tune.

1:06 you're layering little reverse bits of guitar in for a while.

1:28 nice drop from ride cymbal to hat.

1:34 cool little jazzy chords and nice guitar tone, with guitars oppositely panned.

2:09 reverse guitar rise I like a lot.

2:31 good guitar tone and controlled bends. A classic sort of melodic, jazzy solo with some very fluid runs. Better soloing than I'm usually able to do.

3:15 ambient synth pad is good. Maybe the first appearance of it in the track, maybe not.

Bass is solid and supports things well though I didn't notice it much the first couple of times I listened to the track.

Overall: creative, musically impressive stuff that I like.

very interesting composition.... i like it!

hello
this is one very stylish funky number! I mean not only at 0:03 but also from 0:46! 2:40 - 3:15 some brilliant guitar jazzy madness. Your instrumental skills are so impressive. The choir type of synth on the outro section is fine too.
Are you interested in collaborations? I think I could contribute some interesting synthesizers sometime.
I really enjoyed this track from you.

Best, Alex

Love the space in the track mate! and the guitar solos are Amazing! :D

Greetings.

I like the feel you have going through this. Lead lines are very nice and everything flows well.

There is a bit around 2:00 that reminds me of something StaticNomad would do. The filling of a transition.

I dig it.

Dope Beat And Great Title The Tack Is Invigorating Great Job. Im Going To Use This Will Send U The link When I'm done

If someone had told me that this was an instrumental from an Action Bronson record, I would've believed them. Classic rock textures with a nod to hip-hop swagger. Very nice.

loved the guitar solo on the end
great work
kind regards..._

I'm glad the thrill is back, I always miss it when it's away. This a very uplifting tune which struts about the place cool and confidently. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to it.
