Angel In The Ground Malumix Ft Tacatta And Eshar - Kikajon

15th Jun 2010 18:22 - 16 years ago
Description : Final update: Mahloo13 contributed to this song with an amazing mix and new master (I sadly had to compress it slightly due to looperman size limitations). If you've heard this tune before – listen again – I think it's worth it. Lots and lots of cred to Malu for his effort.

Update: Totally new vocal tracks by tacatta.

100615: Yesterday I came across a man who lost his angel. This really moved me and I just had to finish this track which suddenly found its reason. A couple of weeks ago i found an acapella by Eshar that now made its way into this song. Garageband, Strat, Eshar, fretless precision and some compassion

p.s. In case you wonder – yes, I'm a big fan of Pink Floyd.

I love to hear those rockbased tracks. And this one is realy well done, especialy the organ you used sounds realy cool for me. Your music make me think on the music of "Ayreon" (Arjen Anthony Lucassen) That is meant as a huge compliment. :)

Wow!I love what you have done with this!
It's really smooth and beautifully done.
Malu shows his genius with this mix.
Well done guys-It's a masterpiece.
And Elaine your voice really does speak to my soul!

Thank you very much. Malu and Tacatta really made the difference. In the new mix Eshar's voice pella got new life – and finally the song became complete. I am very pleased the result. Again, thank you for the very kind words and for sharing the story of Matthew.

Well, it is easy to see why Malu is one of the best around when it comes to mixing and mastering. This is fabulous and definitely a song that Pink Floyd, or any band, would be proud of.

The vox at the 1:15 mark are a stroke of genius.

Hell, the whole track is genius.

Straight to favorites - \m/ \m/

Thanks Bear. Malu made a big differnce with his skills and I am really pleased with the result. Jim's voice is so right for this one, finding Eshars pella was a fortunate thing.

Hi,
thanks for giving me the heads up about the latest version of this track. It sounds fantastic certainly.

It's been an interesting musical journey, and even though we all started from different places the final destination is certainly one we can all be proud of, and it's a very fitting tribute to little Matthew.

A big jump in time, my friend .... Yes! really "Pink Floyd" in its purest form in the game, the intonation, lack can be a good guitar solo but it's fantastic ....
I am very surprised by the artistic quality of this track.
All my respect ....

Merci, votre mots est très apprÃÂciÃÂe.
And I'll pass them on to my collaborators who all were essential in bringing the track to that quality. I played all instruments but the drums (they were set by Malu) and wrote the lyrics – but it wasn't until Jim and Malu did their parts that the tune became what it now is. I am very proud of the outcome. Again, thanks.

A brilliant track. The vocals are absolutely fitting for this track Tocatta's vocals are ace and heart felt, Esher fits in nicley during the end. Well layed out and the melody and bridge is just an anthem sing along track, that could be easily played commercially. A very good attempt. I would push this track further mate! You've clearly worked really hard on this gem, well done really well done.

Wow, Taccata, you're vocals are insane dude! Guitar, Kilk,awesome as always bro and Eshar just tops it off in such a sultry way! Thank you for blessing us all with this. Great great tune man! Huge fav! The loop is an exceptional place man, there is absolutely no place I would rather be. Thank you to everyone involved on this track for sharing it with us. It is a true example of the powers and wonders of collabs man!
Kikajon
Kikajon replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thank you so much for the kind words. This is a song that have evolved with the talent of collabortions – I used Eshars amazing poem and sung the lead vocals myself in the first version, when Tacatta added his voice the tune began to sound like I wanted it to.
But when Mahloo13 added his mixing skills I was amazed, it came out they way I didn't even know I wanted it to sound. Great collabs gives new visions.

Kikajon replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thank you, ever so kindly. But I'd be wrong to take the cred for the voice this time, it's actually Jim that does the vocals. But I appreciate that you like my voice, and your support is making my confidence grow as a singer. The duet with Jim will happen. Some day.

Ed, I appreciate your kind words and I share your enthusiasm about Pink Floyd. The vinyls, from Ummagumma and Atom heart mother to Animals, have been passed on to my daughter – and she loves them too. Pretty amazing in my book.

I had not heard this song yet. Unforgivable. Well, better late than never. Perfect everything. Symphonic rock in pure state. You are great. A really cool song. I will make a second listen, because songs like this are not made today. A luxury to have in Looperman.

This track came together when I heard the moving story about matthew, a kid that unfortunately became an angel in the ground after a fire. Eshars poem and Jim's vocals made it one of my favourites.

I love what you have done to improve this track!
It really has come together so beautifully.
The combination of the guitar and all the vocalists,Tacatta,Eshar and yourself is pure synergy.
It has been a long hard road putting the Matthew album together,with lots of heartache,tears,anger and frustration.
It has been such a hard project as it is so close to my heart and has totally drained me.
I have listened to the tracks thousands of times and I'm happy to say that I'm finally ready to let go and the album will be released on November 26.
I'm so thrilled to have you guys on it and can't wait to see what happens.
Thank you so much!You don't know what it means to me!
Much love

Wow!I am totally blown away by this.Beautiful,from start to finish.
I am so honored by your thoughts for Matthew.He was not my son,but the son of a family friend,but the pain,none the less,has been so hard to bare!
Thank you for this.You have touched my heart and I am so grateful to you for dedicating this track.Elaine is one of my best artists on this site,so it was really amazing that she featured in this.
I have written an album for Matthew which is almost complete and ready for release.I would love to include this track on the album,if I get your permission.
The proceeds are going to charity to help burn victims,but hopefully,we will get lots of exposure and may go places with this.
I have not written this album for financial success in the music industry,but to try help raise money for charity.Any recognition will be a bonus,and who knows what it could lead to?Let me know if I can include this on the album,and thank you so very much for caring.It is so appreciated!LLove.g.x

Kikajon replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
What can I say but I'd be very honored to do so. But Elaine have to give her permission. I can contact her if you wish.
I'd also like to redo the vocals in the beginning, I'm not completely satisfied.
I'm really pleased that you liked this song. Take care and speak soon.

such a cool "whiskey sipping" kind of tune. very nice and eshar's words are awesome in here. don't really know Pink Floyd that well (gasp - shock - horror)... hehehe, but i like the sound you've got going here! very nice tune.
Kikajon
Kikajon replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Thank you for the kind words.
The lyrics came after I had contact with a man in South Africa who had lost someone close to him. Eshar's words seemed perfect. Even if my vocals have flaws, I'm quite happy about the song.
