Hey I hear a lot of potential in this track, I hear a great Beck or Montreals sort of modern vibe in it. I read your reference to previous mixing problems and I know what you can do to get that bass guitar to settle in the mix properly! You don't have to turn down the bass frequencies in the song, certainly not on the bass guitar track, but instead throw a filter on the bass track to take away some of the /treble/. The problem is the bass guitar was real present, but you cut the bottom end off, and it almost sounds like a regular guitar, making the volume war between the two even worse. If you roll off those high frequencies which are just not necessary from the bass guitar here, and turn up the bass frequencies a bit, it should settle in just right. I only write this much because I want to hear the track sound even better!

great!!! a very relaxed and backseated track, real fun to listen to ... silent happiness ... blues vibe makes everything possible ...
very nice composition!!!

peace, rei

That's awesome looping + singing. Was that pno or really hard-edged damped-down gtr harmonics?

This is a great track and thanks for the avenue for us non-Gallic speakers to explore more music - I gotta check out Bashung.

I must admit my French music vocab is really limited. Etron Fou Leloublan, the original Honeymoon Killers, Plastic Bertrand (is he french?), Passion Fodder. Please point me towards more!!

As always, thanks!!

no more singing in english for you, young man...this is supurb. love the drop when the song picks up. your guitar is amazing, as usual.
loves it!

Nice to hear you singing in your mother-tongue! you should do it more.

Fun song, sounds like something on our alternative station here in Seattle!

Wow great still. It's come to a new place now hasn't it. A little bit. Wow.

Love your voice still.

Loved the intro. Love when the beat comes in.

This is as fresh and well-instilling a track as it ever was.

Beautiful work on the vocal harmonies there! flawless, love the way they are weaving in and out with each other, like just 2 nice banners moving about in the breeze. That was a very nice treat to hear.

Great work brother. Cheers.

My email is mayz2201@gmail.com, and sure id love to sample it, and if its ok I would love to write to it, when I get it done i will send it back to you to see what you think!

Im gonna be honest, I love it, and man this is totally something I would sample and just write something viscious too!!

pseudo 50's style thing happening...
I love the attack of the wurli when the groove is kicking... almost has a distorted rock and roll thing to it yeah?

Vocals as always cool... I wish I had the thought and nuts to pull something like the stuff you do.. but you are exceptionally talented!

Do you work with locals and stuff?... You should think about it?

Maybe a little clipping, but negligable!

HIGLY ENJOYABLE!
Dang on the no d/l.
Definitely faving.

Is there anyway I can purchase your stuff?

hi frenchkid, wow great work with guitar, i'm glad. Really go so well both sounds, electro by one side and guitar on the other, great track.

Love the fusion/electro funk this tune has to offer. Nice guitar work and hip-hop style beats. Reminds me a bit of Tone Loc from the late 80's early 90's. Nice work, --Davey--

Nice! This sounds like something I would hear on kexp.org during the daytime variety mix. Reminiscent of Spoon. And the Beatles.

Now this is pretty EPIC man!

I love the update!

Quick and inconsequential points of views from me, I noticed the changes in timbre and tonality man. (I am thinking it's compression???) If you are using ableton or Cubase or something, I would drop some room reverb on some of your vocal takes and make it seem like I am in a room with you? Just a thought.

Just saying!

I love it... it's really a sadistic comedy on men... And it's brilliantly performed.

I still wanna cover it ^_^

Who is your favorite painter?

AND I have just found out in your profile that you are a lover of Depeche Mode and the Line 6 ux2! Good man!

I have some pellas just going through clearance at the moment if you fancy a bash or a cover version?!

this is beautiful, it sounds like a mix of old Joy Division, with a slice of funk and some other elements that i can't describe but like! I am going to have a look at your influences now but feel free to reply any influences to this review.
On other matters i think that Minette, you and i need to work on a collaboration, i have a possible song in mind that i wrote called "off the radar" that is perfect i think for our slightly sad but ultimately upbeat writing and recording styles.

I didn't hear this track before all the changes, but it sounds really solid now! The piano and vocals are both beautiful, and they compliment eachother well. Those subtle beats are just right. I really like what you've done with this track, it's very haunting!

weeeee..... wow!! i love this track... faved... i haven't come across this track yet i guess... i love the melody and the lyrics... whew!!!! Kudos, FrenchKid!

God Bless,

normally 'rock music' isnt somethin i'd listen to but i am enjoying your track you can tell you both put hard work into this and its great in every angle, sounds like it could be a classic!

edit ..well i do like a fair bit of rock, its just somethin i havent listened to in a long time! i'm more of a letters-to-cleo person, ram jam, metallica etc..still brill track i enjoyed!

Wow, the recording and performance on the new vocal track is top notch! I still really like this track! It's nice to hear you revisiting some of your songs, they definitely are worth perfecting. Nice one!

realy like this track very different and creative well done D. :0)

Nice track, very interesting sound a bit different from your previous ones. I love the electro feeling to it. If it was my I would add some fx effect to it

hey man this stuff is awesome! i think between you and Minette i have found my new favorite artists!

You're a very talented storyteller with your songs! I really dig this one, it sounds finished without being over-produced. Wayne's subtle percussive treatments really work for a song like this. I like the rawness and the honesty of it. Great work!

youre strumming in the story of that guy fucken sick all i can say keep it up
