Fantastic voice, surrealistic atmosphere...is it pop? :-)
Hats off, Danke
Ya know, I had trouble picking out a genre for this. What do you think it is?

Love Heavy Weather! I still have the LP. You reminded me, I did a cover of a track from "Heavy Weather" but for some reason forgot to post it, so just did, and you can check it out on my 'covers' page, if you like: http://www.looperman.com/tracks/detail/159326. I also plan to do "Birdland" one day!

If anyone believes playing fusion is easy, all they need to do is give it a go and they will find out it takes a huge amount of talent, and you and Franco are gifted with immense amounts of talent.
Definitely one of the best jazz/fusion tracks I've heard in a long, long time. Well done gents. I hope all is well.

As stated in the comments, I almost gave up on this one, but it was too good to just let die unfinished. I do love fusion mainly for the challenge. I'm glad I brought it back for another go.
Thanks much for your listen and comment. Franco and I really appreciate it.

A nice track, well done :)
Yeah, several hours went into this one, but we wouldn't have it any other way.

Wonderful!
You are right, there are a lot of Weather Report atmospheres in this track. Then, around 3:10 we have a Miles Davis section (Tutu era).
Respect guys!
Listening to this is pure joy!
Ciao, Domenico
PS: the final drum solo is very tasty, maybe not the best way to end a track, but I enjoyed every bit of it :-)

Nice one!

Sorry it's a bit high for you. Would have liked to have you aboard. Usually vocal requests are unsuccessful, so doubt we'll get any takers.

Franco should do this more often: deep and interesting voice.
And I like how it has been recorded: very warm.
Ciao, Domenico
PS: I haven't written anything about the guitar and drums, just to avoid repeating myself... excellent as usual!
Keep "rocking" guys! (or should I say "funking"?)

I wasn't sure about the pella. I knew it was the same person, but didn't really recognize it.

I guess you're saying you have 15-20 hours of material that you've recorded together? OK but I'm not sure what that has to do with any issues that I point out as being errors (as I see them).
I can only call it as I see/hear it. I don't know if someone wanted something to be in there or is actually grateful for me pointing out something they hadn't noticed or were in denial about (I'm often like that with problems in my own tracks).
"When we post them, they are finished and we feel they rarely need editing or correcting in our opinion."
OK, well I guess you're saying there's no point in me pointing out things that could be fixed as you will automatically disagree. I upload tracks in as good a state as I think I can get them. And then I sometimes go back and hear the problems and generally then fix them. People are free to point them out to me. Sometimes I agree, sometimes I don't.
I posted a new track last night which I love but now think the end section should be longer and some other bits don't quite sound right. I haven't put that in my track description as it's already quite long enough.
I've actually been a bit disappointed in the past that people haven't pointed out errors or how to improve my tracks as they just gave me high praise so perhaps I thought my work was done (when it really, really wasn't). I had to work out how to make those improvements for myself so just as well I didn't settle for people thinking a track was great.
"I can listen to anyone's track and hear things I would change if I was doing it"
Yes - that's partly how I've learned to make music. By listening to things and getting ideas from how I would do things differently.
Anyway, it's your music so do as you please with it but maybe I won't give any critique on your tracks in future. So, either a praise-filled review or no review at all.
I hope this reply is more clear. We're all friends, here.

Ciao____Orlando
Glad you like it and took time to comment. I agree, I like the accent. Actually, Franco had a very small vocal part when he sent the track to me and I encouraged him to do more so I wrote a few lines for him and when he sent it back there was the cool Italian rap which I really dug. I hope to do more of this in the future.

Before I get onto that, you've got to fix the guitar issues early on.
0:12 and 0:16 pops/edits really have to be removed. It's a good part. Have you spliced together a couple of takes but forgotten to crossfade the parts?
Also, on 0:54, what's that high buzzing noise? It comes in later too and sounds like an error.
Anyway, errors aside, I like the timbale sort of drums fills eg on 1:49.
5:08 cool big, exploding noise that is a bit of a surprise. What was that?
There are also some problems at certain times with the kick drum being too loud. I can give details if you want.
Otherwise, it's some interesting stuff that sounds like it was fun to make.
That explosion sound at the end is just an FX loop I had for a nice impact to finish things off.

Love the jazz/funk feel to this, the vocals sit nicely in the mix with the guitars at just the right level. Nice work.
Best wishes,
Mark/Larry!

Love the percusssive section, the keyboards, the bassline and the guitar.
It's got a kind of Carlos Santana vibe to it and goes very well with the sunny weather that we're having at the moment (Well, we were at least anyway)
Dig this track.
One suggestion, You should drop out some of the low end on the reverb you used on the vocals. It would add a bit more clarity.
Other than that it's a hot track.
