When the sax and guitar kicks in the song reaches a different level. Nice chill out track, Good stuff!

Brutal honesty? All right - the bass is wicked and real. The reverb guitar in conjunction with the sax is brilliant, and the dialog you've got going on between the instruments...the way everything drops out except for the perc and bass line - Wow! The vocals do need to come up to the front - hell, maybe some Parisians might get bent if you've mispronounced something, but they're too much of a "tease" at the volume you've got them. "The Black Night" is an intriguing title and I found myself struggling to hear what you were saying. Singing in a language that's not your first takes real courage - don't hide them behind the instruments. Even so, I have to fav this one anyway as I'll be listening to it more than a couple times. Cheers.

10 Nov 09 UPDATE: Still a favorite. Fantastic work with this piece!

Thx much for the review and for adding as a fav...most unexpected (and appreciated).
I think I'll heed your advice and pull the vox up higher in the mix and see what flavor that brings. I hope to post a few others soon.

I love ya bass line!! It's sleazy and moody! The things that let it down in my opinion is the perc. it may be too live sounding, I would try and use electronic perc. Then i would try and build the track into the chord stabs and the horns with sweeps/breakdowns/risers, something. I would love to get my sticky hands on your bass line and the vox!!

Listen to anything by AIR and you'll know what i mean.

Cheers for the feedback. Still need to explore how to execute on the advice you've given as I'm new to the game. Will check AIR and see if I can connect. If you're serious about the getting the trax, I'll see if I can pull them and post or send direct to you via your inbox. Peace

I used an acapella by RayKoefoed - The Sum Of A Body ( LM ), actually just one verse.
