Name: Better Way (All Genre Comp) Alternative Rock
Duration: 374 s
Channel: sobstory
Description: I started this track last week. I used a sax solo by SlapJohnson and a great chord progression from thehandthatrocksthedeck for the ending. It has a bit of a retro sound like The Psychedelic Furs meats Phil Collins other loops I made with Demension LE in Sonar plus played real Guitars and Bass. The Drum Tracks are Simon Phillips from www.sessionloops.com Vocals by ME.

Got my vote for the category - what else to say? I'm listening to this 12 miles east of Aberdeen and it feels like indigenous music to me!

sobstory replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thanks for taking the time to review my tracks. I am glad you enjoyed them. I will try to spend some time with your tracks soon.

My vote for the rock genre in the all genre competition.OK Martin you know how much I like this track because its a complete package, I've already reviewed it but I'm back to give you my vote for the rock track in the all genre competition because of that there are a lot of great tracks in this category (including mine, lol) but yours has everything a true rock track should have including great lyrics and vocal performance. Your fan BigPete and good luck but you're already a winner.

SLAPJOHNSON 23rd Jun 2009 15:25 - 17 years ago

Hi Sob, thanks for the mail about this track. I like the song! I have always been a fan of songwriters/musicians (Real instruments) if you get my drift. So this ticks all of the boxes. Sweet playing/arrangement and clear production helps the vocals sit just right... 10/10...

Cheers Slap...

sobstory replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thanks for the kind review. Your sax loop fits this sound perfectly. I can't wait to use more of your loops. I am doing a track now that has your harmonica loops with a Stones feel. I will let you know when it is done.

Thanks again,

Martin

Hi there Martin,

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my rock tune....so I wanted to return the favor and check your tunes out as well.
I like the guitar sounds in this one as they are nice and clear.

Of course your vocals are very good as well. Has a slight rough edge to them, but I suppose it depends on the song your doing.
Anyways, a very nice job on this song and hope you'll make many mor.
Randy

Thanks again,

Hey MrSob..always nice to find some natural music with soul and played with conviction..rolls along very well..I do like your voice,a hard gritty exterior with plenty of presence..you don't pick those up twiddling your thumbs...methinks you've been around the block once or twice...cool work!..enjoyed it thoroughly...cheers planet

sobstory replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thanks for the review. Yes I have been around the block once or twice. But looperman is all new to me and I am really liking the process and the people that are here.

Thanks again,

this is a great track. you know who it reminds me of? dave matthews band. great composition. the drums are simple and dont overpower anything. i lot of feeling went into this i can tell. if only everyone put their heart and soul into their music as you seem to in this tune. i dont really have anything negative or constructive to say as you seem to have this down. keep it up! =]

sobstory replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thank you so much, I like Dave Mathews so thanks for the comparison. I think I sang the song in about 6 or 7 takes and settled on this one, I also had a version with a double track that was okay. Thank you again for your kind review.

Martin

Spivkurl 20th Jun 2009 16:22 - 17 years ago

This song really has a lot of power, and your vocals really seal the deal! The song kinda makes me sad, and from your lyrics, it seems like this was intentional. I really like the orchestration and arrangement on this track. You have much talent! Keep it up!

sobstory replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thank you for taking the time to review my track. I'm glad that you liked it. I call myself/Band Sob Story because I can't write happy songs, I have tried. I was once a serious addict so I can write about what I know. Thanks for all your kind words!

Martin

ChrisHall 20th Jun 2009 10:41 - 17 years ago

Cheers for the review buddy! a new track woo!
Me and you need to do some acoustic stuff with this voice!
I will have a go at making some catchy on my acoutic this week if you like? another wicked song man

Chris

sobstory replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Hey, Thanks.
I would love to try and do some stuff together. I do think your voice shined on your acoustic track. But if you want to collaborate I would be honored.

Talk to you later,

Martin

Martin, loving your songs man, this is so good man, your lyrics are beautiful and deep...I wish could write lyrics..Slap's solo sounds perfect over the chords,sounds a little Stones like when the tune comes back in after the sax..another fave for me!
thanks for sharing your artistry with everyone!

victormusic01x..in the nyC listening to real songs!

sobstory replied Unknown - 2028 years ago

Thanks allot. It is funny the you mentioned the Stones because I am working a track with a very strong Stones feel right now using a Keith Richards tuning (Open G) on my Telecaster and some Harmonica loops by SlapJohnson. I hope you like that on as well.

Thanks again,
Martin
