i wrote this song about the darkness in all of us. Most of the time on earth I feel lost, but theres always someone or something we can trust. I love frequencies it protects us from the dark.

Hola amigo BananaLu, he vuelto a escuchar tu tema y no he podido evitar volver a comentar sobre la fuerza y el sentimiento desgarrador de tu voz, la cual me llega muy adentro. Cada vez que la escucho me gusta más. Es especial. Que tengas una buena noche compañero. Paz y salud.

Hey Andre, I think you already know i love your vocals. Pretty sure i've listened to this a few times at least. Darkness can be a place of peace and safety, a blanket to hide under, or it can be a place of fear. maybe its a mirror and you get back what you feel and see?! anyway, this is a great performance and an emotional trip. Looking forward to more. Chris

good job BLu; vocal is great, really good power and clarity as usual; has alot of presence; I think your vocals are perfect for acappella section.

thank you alot ioncewas. It´s a big compliment what you wrote. I really think about to put acappella to give back to the community. But sometimes when i hear other stuff i´m not near good. The last 6 months i really focus to extend my vocal range and i force myself everyday for singing lessons with piano. I´m right now building my first project studio to get hq shiat out and then i will upload into acappella. thank you for listening and send you energy.

BananaLu, yep this whole production came from the depths of who you are. Thanks for that glimpse. For me the vocals are spot on and strong with a vintage analog overall mix. You doing an outstanding job and please, more tracks with your vocals. Unique work here. Be and stay safe.

thank you kingmt77 :) i´m in the process to find mindself as an solo artist and expriment right now with more honesty in an digital age. I got myself the virtuell mix rack from slate and i really like the comp they offer. I dont have enough money for monitor speakers so i have to mix everything with headphones and i have to learn more. i´m a huge fan of your production. I send you good vibes.

I think this track coincides with the dance. And so I combined music and video:

Well this is different mr. banana. There's a cool tension built up with the music and the vocals. The backup singing parts are neat and the doubled lead vox(with some delay?) makes the vocals so much bigger in the mix. The acoustic instrument at the end helps the dynamics of the song.

Very cool!

Hey Wyane, thank you alot that you listend to my track. And thank you that you noticed the little details in my track. I´m very inspired of Kurt Cobain and David Grohl. So my lead consist of 3 layers. First i sing lead with 100 percent power. 2nd layer is a imitation of Dave Grohl backing vocals 50 percent power and my 3rd lyer is a slighlty pitch corrected version with -20 db mixing. and i put on vocal bus like 3 different reverbs and 3 different delays each have their own task and i automated fx by my mixing desk. I wish you a great Sunday and send you energy.
Danke

Hey Angelusyeux777Sc, thank you much that you listen to my songs and write me kind word. I´m all the time insecure because i don´t have a huge vocal range or fancy timbre. My only way of singing is to just give the lord everything what i have. I´m a huge fan of your voice as well and now i have the change to write you about your Track Rupta Promisso. your vocal really calmes me down and it hit me hard. My long time relation fell last month apart and your line: "All the things that you promised never caught true, because you´re not honest". It hit me hard, because i saw myself in this line. I wasnt honest with my partner. Your song caught me off guard and i had to really think alot about myself. Your work helpes me to get in touch with some of things i want to change. im a big fan of your vocal and your 100 percent clear pitch it´s heaven on earth.

Gran tema mi querido amigo BananaLu, muy bien producido y tu voz me llega hasta el alma, algo tienes que me tiene totalmente aducido, será tu autenticidad o la emoción que consigues con cada palabra. Me encanta los efectos, le da más expresividad. Gracias por la letra y la descarga. Que tengas un buen día hermano. Paz y salud.

im a big fan of alternative music/pop and this is in my ears alternative.
It reminds me of some tracks from Sia when she was with LSD .
Real great track mister...well done!!
BananaLu
BananaLu replied 31st Oct 2021 - 4 years ago
hey rita, yeah i think it´s more alternative and Sia is a huge energy source for me. She sings very emotional and weird and she is just a wounderfull mess, i consider her the modern version of Björk. thank you very much Rita , you don´t know how much energy you give me with your productions and weird af tracks. I don´t feel alone.

Description : I continue the hybrid procedure of creating music. This is a relatively recent song of mine that after the in DAW processing it was used as a prompt with certain guiding choices to AI machine. What was produced was di novo imported into the DAW to be blended with the original recording. It ended to a long music piece which I believe can be of interest to the listener. I hope you will enjoy this listen. I think Rocking Ambient describes well the genre.
