Progressive would probably work, but you can't select that, so maybe cinematic?

All the best music is difficult to pin down.

The mix is great. The music is well written and arranged. It kinda reminds me of Avatar (band), less the death metal.

Nice work.

Wow, thanks for sharing spear, I'm a big fan of Micky, he knows, he's got funk and rythme, like me, he's just a better producer I'm a dancer first so it's instinctive, was introduced to your voice earlier on Stevens, it's great. I to have been working on my Halloween piece, it's been ready for a fortnight I was waiting for the beginning of Oct, I've gone totally different to this stunning piece,

great to hear this again, this time round I paid more attention to the lyrics (and googled the poem). Had to laugh that it was her dear, true hearted pooch in the end burying a bone!

Really lovely track - the duet reminds me of the nick cave and pj harvey henry lee track (though that's quite different). Great stuff.

Ahh I love Halloween songs, we have a tradition here on looperman of doing them and posting them, so please make sure you re-post this in October. This reminds me slightly of priest (not judas, but the remenants of the original backing band of Ghost). I will post a reference. This is awesome. great mix, awesome composition.

I thoroughly enjoyed this fun piece, love the melody and especially love when the vocals go high - oh yeah, that is a great sound.

I wouldn't say spookie or experimental
More pop reggaeish 80's vibe track to me
ok that's not a specific genre either
But it's a cool track guys, well done

This track is so clean and refreshing. It sounds like you and Micky are in the same room, the vocals are great and the background music is perfectly matched to the vocals.
Great Track. Faved

PEACE...

Gran pista, donde sobresalen vuestras voces perfectamente acopladas. La música perfecta resaltando con fuerza el mensaje de esta obra de arte. Realmente un lujo que cuanto más lo escuchas más te va enganchando. Bien por los dos.

Wow awesome, this is something I am not used to hear at looperman,
and I of course mean that in a good way.
This is some high level artistic stuff I hear, great job on the vocals.
The backing track is simple but it totally suits it.
Looove the flute twist at 2:50

Spoopy is my new favorite word. Thanks for that :D

I think it has potential for a halloween track. The mix balance could be a little tighter to allow for bus compression to bring up over-all levels.
It would be a shame not to hear it next to other halloween songs if the perceived volume is lower than the other tracks.
Running it through LANDR can help give you an idea of how it would "bloom" under mastering compression if you aren't sure.
Vocals and the composition are complimenting each other nicely.
Good work here!
Very spoopy stuff! :D

Tee hee! "Spoopy" was popular very shortly. Someone made a typo and it stuck for a while. I used it here because of filk, which is a genre that got it's name from a typo; spoopy filk is what I call filk that has to do with spoopy stuff. =^-^=

When you got to the technical advice, you lost me... thank goodness you didn't lose Micky. (LOL) He's going to recompress and I'll re-upload. While waiting for the new file I'm going to try to learn about blooming, LANDR, and bus compression.

Rather interesting, if not low key track. Nice use of synths & the vocal is nicely mixed. Good one.

Thanks! I also think it's low key; mellow.

This is cool! I like the space in the song, there's plenty going on but it's wide open in the mix. Lyrics/singing are interesting, giving the song a darker theme.

Great job turning a poem into music, i think it captures the idea Hardy had perfectly.

Vibing on this one. Love the music, melody and lyrics. Awesome work. Genre? Maybe folk? Who cares, I'm a sucker for that weird tag anyway.

You are so kind, and we're both so happy to know you like it. :-) Micky really outdid himself this time.

One acapella by Elven Voice, one loop by GenaMusic... So separate but something common...I decided to merge them and to leave them as clean as I could. Just added some synth pads and percussion.
