Talk To Me Joni - Nonube

6th Oct 2024 07:18 - 1 year ago
Description : I had the idea that this lyric could be rapped over my track but not having the skills to do that repurposed Joni's masterful voice - It seems a little jarring at first but I kind of like how it fits as it goes along - My multitracked classical guitar and my constructed beat from various vst kits and 'you know who ' sampled vocal (cut up just a little). Not sure about genre

Nailed it! It needed a story, that's what I was going to do. Will still do soon as I get the chance, tho Joni will do it much better.

I like what you've done with this. It's very similar to the original, but still worlds apart. Your addition of the percussion takes it to a different place. Honestly, no offense to Joni and her crew, but I like your bass guitar tones much better. The effects on your acoustic make it a little softer too. Even though you say it's a little jarring at first, I have to disagree. Your version actually seems to be more relaxed, even though there is more to it. I think with what you've done, it almost gives it a darker feel. Like something out of an old 90s indie flick.
Yeah, good work.
Take care.

nice work bro its got a unique vibe, yeah folkish but it has a blues vibe the vocal i think complements the difference you were trying to get, a creative piece of work, guitar sounds great, nice share a fresh approach and another artists stretching boundaries and being adaptable, that works for me

I think it is mostly bluesy stuff here. I will admit it was a bit of confusing the way the vocals "stood" in the song, not making it unlikable though. Keep coming with fresh ideas
Wish you the best, Anthony.

I love the unconventional mix of instrumentation on this track - that vocal has such an interesting quality - slightly Alanis Morrisette-ish and it soars and dips, chaining the whole track together. There's a Spanish feel, adding extra interest. You listen once and you want to listen again. Exceptional. You should be v proud! Kay0s

OOooh this on another level it has a touch of that raw bluesy feel, I absolutely love music that speaks! to the heart and makes me sit up and take notice. The vocal is so mellifluous and compelling. I become bored easily when hearing the same ole thing these days when I hear something different and interesting It instantly grabs my attention & this did. I like versatility and unique-ness and this, *Hands down* is very unique, I know you mentioned that it was slightly jarring but I think everything works, eclectic, innovative, unique, supreme I could go on but Overall this is created by someone that clearly has the MIDAS touch (That'd be you sir) OUTSTANDING! you can tell I liked this a lot! FAVED!

Aww shucks - thats such a lovely comment - thank you. Im very pleased you like it - your latest one was gorgeous - with your voice you could have rapped the joni lyric over this music of mine but I had didn't have anyone to beg so just borrowed and stole (as the old saying doesn't quite go). Thanks again.
