Interesting that you used the vocal you used, I was (very pleasantly) listening at work and the male voice came through...and made me sit up, eyebrows raised. :-) Your work, of course, is of great quality and this was easy listening. This will be played over and over while relaxing in the is thing called life. Always a pleasure visiting your place Dave. Pretty soon you're gonna have to start making muzic again, just so I don't run out of reasons to stop by. :-)

Love this piece. Lot of great music and tasty guitar packed in to this track. The sax jumped out at me with a happy yelp of surprise. I like the subterranean vocals going on. And the fade to rain at the end is way cool. Excellent work.

Very thankful for this tune, since I hear it from the point of view of one of those specks of "dust." It's uplifting in all of the right ways, and gets me past all the BS quickly. The song made me wish I had been enjoying a glass pipe instead of my tobacco pipe, I'll just have to download it for later! Like someone mentioned, the bass sounded well intonated! Been fashioning a rosewood bridge for a guitar in the last couple of days, so I guess my mind is just on that sort of thing. This very much has a vintage reggae feel to me, and that is always a welcome surprise (one we don't get very often lately). Your performances were awesome! The vocal thing being a VST really surprised me, and considering it had pitch work done, it sounded quite good! Very fun to hear this one, and I will Fave and DL. Thanks for sharing it!

Hey Pat...glad you liked the tune mate, I took various parts of the vocal samples mainly the ending phrases and combined them with a little pitch correcting, man I wish I could sing it would make things way better (trouble is the only times I ever sung was when I was drunk and I gave up drinking ages ago, I need to get over my hangups and try it sober maybe! lol), good to hear your making instruments mate as you know it's so very satisfying getting hands on with your music in a literal sense as artistically...all the best mate cheers Dave :)

I am putting together a radio stream in memory of my late son who died from cystic fibrosis and would very much like to use this track. He was into dub, house, reggae, trip hop and many things electronic. The stream, sonnypieradio.com will be ad free, and will not pay royalties, however I am happy to give you a credit and links. Hoping for your permission. Thank you. Chris

Really dig this one Dave. Brings back some memories of hanging with a few old band members and checking out different guitar music. I was never much into Reggae but one of the guys was always trying to get us to do some and was always playing us tunes from Marley, Dennis Brown, Mikey Dread and others. This undoubtedly has a fair amount of Jazz flavoring which I really enjoyed. Such a pleasant groove all the way through. Great listen , great track.

I don't know how you do that : your tracks always have that very special touch that makes them unique. I had a nice trip somewhere else while listening to it. Thanks a lot for the oxygen.

Hi Janis, thank you for the very kind review! I guess like a lot of muso's I try to channel the experience while I'm playing and hopefully it gets me somewhere from where I started, if that makes sense....glad you enjoyed it all the best!

Sehr schön!
Yeah this is great. Really like this old style reggae mixed with the ethno and jazzy things. The sound is really well and the same can be said to the play skill.
This was a pleasure to listen to. I bet that this one is something where a talented singer could do some nice vocals on.

A really good reggae song.

stay tuned

hey mon...welcome to d` island dis late evening.....is there anything you can`t do musically...reggae of a somewhat different class to my ears as I keep getting a wee sip of something jazzy...like the moon rising on the horizon....superb musicianship by all members of the band (named Dave)..lovely clean production with perfect levels & natural placement...To say this is damn good would be a big understatement....standing ovation from up North....Ed

Planetjazzbass replied 2nd Dec 2016 - 9 years ago
Hey Ed thanks buddy!...went along to a Marley concert only because a friend of my sister's offered me free tickets..they were second row dead centre, a totally awesome experience for me...while I had always liked calypso and early Jamaican styles I'd never been exposed to full blown live reggae before, became an instant convert (along with most of western youth at that time) and still am, though Dubstep doesn't appeal to me..I wonder why. haha....thanks for your kind review mate much appreciated! cheers Dave :)

Hi Dave!

Nice one! I'm a bit surprised, by virtue of your loops i expect a lot more "dark" track, but this was pure fun. 5 mins passed very fast.

Regards, traz

Planetjazzbass replied 2nd Dec 2016 - 9 years ago
Hey Traz, thanks man! I'm always in a different mood I guess when I make loops, but it's really more to do with trying to do something in a very short space of time...cheers mate Dave :)

Sweet. Just nicely tasteful reggae style from the late sixties early seventies sound. I used to go to a reggae night back in the day back in the states and watch this band do covers. There version of ¨Hey Joe¨ kicked ass, and the lead singer could also play a soprano and an alto sax at the same time. quite a feat. What I love about this is the bass work is awesome. The first part of the phrase is traditional reggae and you end the second part of the phrase with scalar jazz, brilliant composition. I did not realize you released a tune with the word Dread in it as I put out an ambient tune called Dread, But ever since Halloween we have been on a mental simpatico that is a bit spooky. My song was about the dread people might be feeling after the US election. Your dread song is much more uplifting and musically equates some hope. Congrats on another great piece of work Dave.

Planetjazzbass replied 21st Nov 2016 - 9 years ago
Hey Steve thanks mate!..same track names different inflections, haha when I hear the word dread it's always pronounced with a Rastafarian lilt, no wot I'm talkin about mun (accompanied by sound of big spliff getting lit up in background)....it's kind of sad that Dubstep has replaced what used to be occupied by reggae but that's life, a cousin of mine recently spent two years working in the Seychelles and sent me heaps and heaps of their local music which is very reggae based but way more pop oriented, sort of reggae without the ganja! lol...ah me no partake of de erb dees dayz mun doze rastas wud tink I'ma crazy mon mun!...cheers mate Dave :)

i don't know if it's my sound system or yours VST plugins but i have too much reverb on some intruments during the first part of your track (until 01:36).

Nice track, really groovy with magic feeling

Planetjazzbass replied 16th Nov 2016 - 9 years ago
Hey Bleep thanks man, yes the reverb was a little strong in that first part as I'd been listening to a lot of Marley's very early work and it had very similar rhythm guitar verb, backed off it after awhile though...cheers mate Dave :)

Thanks man glad you enjoyed the tune, the vocals come from a Vsti, Native Instruments Ethno World, I had to slice them and do a slight repitch to get tuning continuity...cheers Dave :)

Description : Deep beneath this house stand forges no hand has lit in decades, their iron cold, their bellows collapsed to dust. Yet I return to them still, tracing my fingers along soot that remembers heat long after the fire forgot how to burn.

Every wound I ever shaped, every choice hammered white-hot in some forgotten year, still holds its form within me, cold now, but never truly extinguished. Strike the right anvil, and even ash remembers how to spark.
