Description : So... I incorporated the early synth treatments of Talk Talk, With the Duran Duran sounds on Rio. The distorted vox is the depressed voice, and the Clean Vox is the outward shell many of us present even if underneath we feel like shit. Very rarely do I sing, but I tried to use the distorted sound under the clean sound as sort of a counterpoint, weak (often out of key, depressed voice), While Showcasing the veneer we tend to present daily to each other.

Steve! How are you? It's been a minute. This track is full of creativity. The groove is infectious. The section starting at 2:16 really grabs you. I love the drive here. Nice work.
Peace,
Mark

Hello crucethus, out of my usual genres but on occasion I like to check out other works, love the guitars and vocals are pretty solid.....very good rock sound as well. This reminds me a little of the Duran Duran sound, very good track.

Thank you so much, I love being able to add my influences with a modern production sound. But at the end of the day I just like making music I like to listen to (Call me selfish ehh!)

Great track. A real mixing pot of genres, which keeps it interesting. I'm hearing bits of classic rock guitar, drums and synths reminded me of Massive Attack at times and I loved the distorted vocals, had a hint of Trent Reznor/NIN with the vocal delivery. You should sing more. This is a great song.

Thank you so much, all those great artists have been such amazing influences through the years.

I liked it from the beginning, and it hasn't diminished throughout. To my ears, it's very well produced, and while I recognize the influences, I still see it as a standalone work. You have something to say and you execute it artistically very well. I find things like that difficult, which is why I don't even attempt it, but you clearly succeed. Aside from the message, it's simply a beautiful piece of music. Do you play those guitars yourself? Hats off, man!

crucethus replied 11th Jul 2025 - 8 months ago

Thank you so much, Mickey. I wish I could play Guitar like that, but I come close with my Synths, and a Nice Roland Me-30 Guiar Processor. Been doing that since 98!

Amazing track, with beautiful vocals (you should sing, it's a singers voice), great drum work, the synths, that awesome guitar solo. Overall as I already wrote, sn amazing track.
Best regards, Anthony

Thank you so much. Maybe I will sing more. My wife, who sings Opera, has traditionally made negative comments about my voice. So we shall see.

Zoot said that you should use your voice more. I agree. It's like Dave Gahan had a kid with SImon Le Bon, and then sent it to grow up with Richard Patrick.

I had completely forgotten about Talk Talk. I was never that deep into them, but I never complained when they would come on. However, Rio is a great album! You were right to use them for influence. This track has a great mix of the 80s/early 90s sound. Listening again, I'm willing to guess there's some influence from Uncle Al J. via the Twitch era, too.
I like this, man. I'd love to hear more from you like it.
Definitely going into the fav's for sure.
Take care, mister.
Aaron.

Aye mate! Talk Talk burned through New Wave synth to eventually create this thing called Post Rock. Duran Duran is so underrated musically. I have no Idea who Richard Patrick is, I will explore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fKtp3SOQE6I
