Yeah, the mandolin gives the special melancholic touch. I personally miss some acoustic drums coming up half the track or so.
Nevertheless, great song! cheers

Hello Mr.Frenckid !

A very melancholic but pop sound you have here, with that catchy little ad-lib vocal you put in now and then. Definately a track of real substance and has gone into my fav's....well done you and the Humpsman.

What excellent lyrics! Love how the mandolin works with the guitar here - great dynamic in that combination.

Yeah, you and Wayne are a great team!

You have such talent! The vocals on this song are so well executed! The mandolin really seems to add a lot, though I didn't hear the version without it. Very cool subtle percussion! Nice track man!

StÃÂphane - hello! A gift to hear you and Wayne work together again - the sounds are sublime, but i gotta step out on a limb here and say the lyrics would be better served with drum in the last verse/chorus - nothing splashy but something that anchors the point - the finality, the track starts with such lightness, but by the end things just ain't funny anymore. well, how's that for two cents, my friend - peace.

Hey Michael,
Thanks for your review.I think you got a point with the drums in the end.I listened to the track again and you're definitely right!The problem is that I'm not a beatmaker really so I thought maybe you'd like to add the drums?
Thanks a lot for the very relevant suggestion anyway
Cheers

Wow, interesting mix, you chopped and placed things where you wanted them, cool! I was wondering what you were doing over there with all those tracks I sent, doing some mixing I hear!!!

Your vocals really stand out now and they sound great too. No bass? It was a bit busy with the mando, I didn't care for it when I put the two together, well, they were recorded seperately and prob not meant to be in the same mix anyway.

Nice job Stephane, always a pleasure!

Hi Wayne,
I felt so stupid when you told me about panning last time and so I have to thank you again cause I've been remixing a lot of my tracks these last days and some were really improved I think thanks to that.I made a version with the bass but I still think it's a bit busy with.
Cheers

Great guitar sound and song,It really does sound good stripped.For myself I hear a Santana lead maybe or clean and jazzy,I tend to think on guitar terms.I might have to plug the guitar in and jam with this one myself!
Allen

Hey Frenchkid,I played with this.You know the more I listen it seemed to have a complete life of it's own,everything I tried took away instead of adding to,you don't want to cover up that sweet mandolin.It does stand alone as a great song,I have played guitar long enough to know when not to.Now having said that,let's definitly do something together!

You decided to go with an electric rather than the acoustic, I think you made a good decision. Nice vocal performance and nice effects on them. Excellent recording overall, is it mastered?

I'm volunteering to add a bass line when you get to that point. Percussion, bongos, and more percussion, lol!!!! That's all I have to say about that.

Send me this version when you get a sec!!

Hi French kid.
When I listen to this tune I get this urge to play guitar, good music does that to me.
Can't wait to hear the finished piece and how you will arrange the tune. (Probably a bit differnt than I.)
Again a fantastic song.
Cheers

nice work Frenchkid

if you add anything make sure you leave the intro alone and gradually build it up....still sounds great as is though

Well done

Great acoustics really enjoyed this one the lyrics especially great metaphors in your song writing, good quality sound, can't think of no suggestions but i was feeling as if a shaker was going to be introduced down the line at some point, don't matter tho really enjoyed this, nice one Frenchkid

FrenchKid18 replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hi Stephen,
Thanks for the nice review.The shaker is a pretty good idea cause I think the drums or percussion part mustn't be too forward in the song.Thanks for the suggestion
Cheers

Description : This fragment, tells you a little story about me. Before iam going to upload something again. Its been a while since i was here. But somehow i never forgotten about this place. Because in the early days of looperman. This was my place to be as well. And somehow it will always remain a soft spot within me. And yeah it was probably time for me to return back to this place anyways. And see what happend and changed here all together throughout the times. when i left the place some while ago.

Description : Beneath moonlight, men become bolder, braver, foolisher, more themselves than they dare be beneath any watching sun.

I understand this pull well, pleasures I would never confess to seeking, temptations the day's judgment kept politely caged.

There is joy in it too, I'll admit, laughter sharper, drink sweeter, desire honest for once. But the night that liberates also loosens what should stay bound.

Every dawn, someone wakes wondering which version of themselves the dark set free.
