that's a really nice comment, thanks a lot. And thanks for taking the time to listen to another track. I know I'm pretty amateur with this music thing, but it is so enjoyable to create and be creative. If I'm pleased with the result that's what matters most, but if someone else genuinely likes it too, all the better!! Cheers Zoot.

Awesome Zootman, great buttery vocal and nice chilled guitar playing. Nice mix on this one as well, the guitar almost sounds subtle against the vocal, good job for not over cooking the levels, sounds great ! :)
Zootman
Zootman replied 6th Apr 2023 - 1 year ago
Thanks for the nice comment! I probably fluked the balance between vox and guitar given I had the two mics (1 condenser and 1 dynamic) positioned to try and capture both at once. Took a bit of compression to get on top of some of the peaks but yeah, the problem with the earlier version was a bit of clipping. I'm still very much learning the production stuff.

Excellent! It's absolutely perfect and your voice is awesome. I downloaded it just to listen as any other song. I was thinking of making a remix with some acoustic bass and just a subtle touch of synths, on the background (softer) keeping your track on the sonic foreground. If I do that I will send you the end result. Thanks for sharing and congratulations for your brilliant work.

Thanks Memphis, appreciate that. you know I've had that guitar for about 35 years. I call it Berna after my old german grandmother who left me the money to buy it when she died. but i digress. I did wonder if it was a bit heavy on the reverb maybe I'll go back and change it but you know how it is, sometimes you just gotta move on.

I would definetly put this on my spotify playlist. It is such a good song and recorded very well. I woudnrt change a thing except make the song a bit longer :-). SOmetimes when your vocals are on a low register the lower frequencies are a itchy bit distorting, but i would keep it in to emphasize your very warm vocals. You got talent, sir! Greets, Auke

I noticed this track is also live recorded but in a proper way this time. I heard some pieces out there, that didnt sound to great when recorded live. But this one was prety well done.

The stings are all you need when you have a voice like yours. Man, you should have been doing songs like this out the box on this site. Congrats on a very amazing song that everyone can enjoy. Do not hold back any longer, give us more in the future man, the cat is out of the bag zootman2u.

Hi Mr Axel, those are some very nice words and immensely flattering. I don't know why it took me so long once I had the hardware/software to go back to where i started with making music - just mucking around on an accoustic and making up little ditties like this and singing them to the walls. easy to be sidetracked i guess. hopefully there'll be some more. thanks again for your very kind words, all the best Chris

Not sure whether you intended it to be, but this is definitely a throwback to the 60's Folk singer-songwriter era (think Joni Mitchell, Dave Van Ronk, Cat Steven, etc.). Your voice is perfectly matched to this genre. Thanks for sharing it, and well done, you!

Has a 60's era folk feel to it. Ad a synth track & some dramatic, middle eastern type percussion & this could easily morph into a Dead Can Dance kind of sound.

Nothing like an acoustic git and a singer. Singer/songwriter music is my passion. It makes the performer vulnerable and exposed and the ability of that person to write now becomes very important as the song needs to hold it's weight with so little going on.

I think it sounds fine, the acoustic has some nice reverb on it. I usually always record the instruments and singing separately, for mixing purposes, it's easier I think. You did a great job for recording and playing all at once. Dig the lyrics too!

Zootman
Zootman replied 17th Jun 2021 - 2 years ago
yeah a bit like finding yourself naked in public eh! Separate would definitely be easier for mixing etc but then when u sing you've got to work out where the words are supposed to go and i find that hard, specially like in this one with no real steady beat. guess its a trade off in spontaneity and other things. Anyways, i appreciate your time and comments, thanks.

Me personally I think there's two categories of producers if you want to call it on here. And I call myself a creator. But you and many others a real artist. Real producers of the industry. Excellent bravo. Well put together. Love the story line. So much music I listen to but I don't know how to create it. And this track and type is one of them. My main vibe is hip hop but tracks like these are the go to. To take my mind and soul away.

All the vocals were done by myself and my brother throws in some little things here and there with his voice :P Enjoy!
