Description : I guess you would classify this one as a power ballad. A bit different from what we usually do, but we'll try just about anything! Credits go to Franco Q as composer, on guitar, bass, hammond B6, arrangement. Scott Burkholder on drums, percussion, arrangement and mix board. Dan Rosati on tenor sax. Dikaiko (a1000times) vocals/lyrics. Hope you like

This is damn good! Everything is well done and sounds professional, but the vocals are fantastic! Reminds me of Ghost Lit Kingdom.

Good stuff all around. Favorited.

great music ... but I was expecting nothing less from you guys!
a power ballad in 70s style
you never disappoint me!
ciao, domenico

PS: hard to pick a highlight here, perfect drums, beautiful vocals, wonderful guitar-solo, such tasteful sax ... simply perfect!

PPS: Franco, what have you used for the organ part?
the sound is so sweet...

happy song. a beautiful feeling. i liked especially the sound of the drum at the opening and the effect on the sax (was it some delay?) nice work!

Many thank for your kind words, Midisparks. We all appreciate you comment.

Yes, the sax had a touch of delay and reverb.

I couldn't help but laugh at Ed's suggestion to have you guys and gals as his neighbor. He lives where it's cold though, it's sunny and warm here at the beach...just so you know.

It's really hard to put this in any particular genre, rock is generic but there are a few styles of music mixed together. I like the singing, a great strong vocal track. The guitar was interesting around 1:00, the clean rhythm and another guitar are playing some funky licks through that part. Around 1:45 the clean git does it again. Good to hear a gong now and then. :)

Doesn't matter the line-up, you folks always bring something worthy of praise. Excellent job by everyone!

You're right, Wayne, this one was hard to pin a genre to. Rock is a good catch-all, though.

We all thank you so much for your compliment. We all love making music and words like yours just make it all worthwhile.

There is a house in my neighbourhood for sale in case a drummer by the name of Scott would like to move up this way...there would be room for the rest of the band too...haha...always top notch music and production...a pleasure to listen too..the horns do take this one in a bit of a jazz direction with the swing beat..its good in any genre..I`m diggin it....well done...again (I think Franco is a bit of a musical genius)...Ed

Hi Ed,

You gave Scott a nice compliment with a chuckle. He said if he were to move there, you'd be the first person he'd look up for a great jam session. I agree, Franco is a musical genius. He is composer of most of our tracks.

Yeah, this one was a bit tricky to put a genre to, but thought 'rock' might be a good catch-all.

Anyway, we all appreciate your ear and for taking the time to leave your kind words.

Ciao,

Such a groove. I love it. The drums sound so crisp and up close, and I really appreciate that from a producer's perspective. The organ adds a nice flair to the song and the panning was appropriate. Great work on this. The guitar solo was a pleasant surprise!

Thanks so much, Brado. Really glad you like it.

Scott does the drum tracks and also the mixing, so he's quite particular about that aspect.

Thanks so much, Lechina. Glad you like it and took the time to comment.

This track is actually 'adult alternative' which is not an option. I've never cared for the genre options here on LM. There's too much of the 'not needed' and not enough of the 'needed' genres, but that's another discussion.

Ciao,
M.

Description : My third rap song. Still not entirely sure how I got here, but I'm having fun with it. This time, I brought along my alter ego, Cool Grandpa. He's got more swagger than I do and helps bring a little street cred (although not much) to the operation.

Description : Unfiltered. Just me and the Squier Stratocaster. Comp edited the recorded guitar freestyle clips so it all sounds like it was recorded in one take. I used one of my old beats. Trying to get my guitar to scream was my goal, but in the process i made the guitar make sounds i didn't know it could make.
