Good morning my friend,
as always your music enchants and surprises with its great variety. At the same time it is almost impossible to close what you compose into a defined genre, but this in my opinion is precisely the most innovative and interesting characteristic of your music.
A warm greeting
Marco

OK, Steve! This is a great track. I loved the contrast from section to section. You are getting more and more inventive.

As I was listening to it I felt like it definitely could be a song performed live by a progressive rock group. Great energy.

Guitar parts were really, really good. Drums just drove the track, especially in the section beginning around 2:40.

Very nice work, my friend!

Hello Esteven!
These guitars are great! I also really liked the FX effects. The whole song was very elegant.

As always excellent work.

Wow, my dear friend, you are untouchable with Rock.
Great track my friend.
The guitar is weeping lovely there.
Well done mate.

It´s ironic because I did a song years ago called She is Untouchable, and apparently so did a rapper, so everyone clicked on my song thinking they were gonna get this.

Yeah, they didn't get that from me.
Sigh, got a lot of plays though back in the day.

Cool mate. I'm really working out that smooth intro, intense opening, ambient middle, and intense ending idea to see if it will work for future music styles.

This is freaking! amazing!...Another supreme track by you love the guitar in this and the change of pace was just divine! very ethereal. The vocals are so on point and add a nice touch to this track. Steven, you are in a league all of your own, another golden nugget here indeed, always blown away by the level of music you produce. Bravo!!!

Nice, interesting track. Liked the syncopated vocals part, almost like horn riffs. Only thing I would maybe do is dial back the phase intensity on the lead part that happens a couple times. Other than that great sounding track.

crucethus replied 6th Nov 2020 - 5 years ago
Thanks, mate, I agree with you on the usage of the vocals as almost another instrument. I can play around with the solos since I am using a modified fab filter volcano patch and I can try backing down a bit on the wetness in a future mix.
Cheers

Sometimes it has to be just some rock.
Really rocking stuff with a nice relaxing part.
Everything is, as always, well produced and sounds over all very good.
But, :) and thats really only me and my feelings to sounds, i had made the guitars sound more like a real guitar or more like a hard synth sound, cause so it sounds to me like a synth that should sound like a guitar :) if you know what i mean.
The drums are extremly cool sounding!
A really cool work for sure and i enjoyed it a lot

stay tuned

Thanks, Joe.

I know you are a purist when it comes to sound and authenticity. So please bear with my experimenting trying to drag rock into the future. I purposely am trying to blend the guitar-synth sound textures using VST´s to create something new. This is a strange hybrid of Blast beat drumming, Ambient pads, U2 edge like guitars over thrash chugs with a moving bass, and strange synth burps. None of that should work together in theory, but magically it does.
But that's the fun of experimentation, you never know what you will get until you try.
take care.
Steven

Description : New and kinda final version of track using acapella from JakeBuzzad.
Instrumental track recorded with Guitar, Bass, Drums, Keyboard, MPD and various percussion then vocals and movie samples added in cuebase (all samples taken from public domain movies from the 1940s-1960s.

It should now be in a half decent stereo mix - however, I am deaf in one ear and it makes it difficult to get the cross over right so feedback / comments more than welcome.

Thanks
