So nice to hear acoustic guitar playing cleanly. I have a Mitchell one I bought last year.
'Tapping' is what I call what your doing. Steve Vai and many other rock guitarist also do it. I have done some, but I am not good at it as it takes practice. However, it sounds like your on your way.
The birds in the background weren't a distraction to me. Even added to the ambiance to it all I feel, if anything.
I think you did a very nice job and hope you'll do more.
Randy
Via is pretty cool..i prefer satriani over via though...via is too flashy haha
Ye it is more or less just tapping while holding a chord...its pretty easy to be honest!
Mitchell guitar woo iv seen a few of them...theyre pretty! i own a Takamine myself...i love it to bits! best acoustic iv ever played...i had to buy it haha
Thank you for the review and thanks for listening randy!
you didn lie when you said you wer going to check mine out!! haha
Thank you for a nice review good sir..i think i will listen to your other ones and give my in depth opinion on the song!
hi m8
your guitar is incredible,like a lot your work.
think is brilliant.
about my track i must suprise you its not me on guitar,i just take some samples and work on them little bit,
very sorry if you feel disopoited.
COOL TRACK , IT WAS MUSIC THAT COME FROM YOUR HEART, YOU MUSIC GOT SOUL , I TRY TO PLAY SPANISH GENRE AND SUDDENLY I JUST STUMBLE TO ARAB STYLE . YOU PERCUSSION MIX WITH OTHER AND THAT MAKE IT WAS UNIQUE.
you know how I feel about this track, its already my fav, a bit hawaian, lol, just pulling your leg, you have a beautiful voice, no problems getting girls with a singing voice like this, and really cool girls I bet, lol. I will never get sick of this track, with SobStory Better Way my 2 favorite complete tracks of the month, and you have this vote locked in, I know both tracks are yours but this one is my fav.
I really tried to move away from that Hawaiian feel...i thought i did..but the fact that you can still hear it upsets me greatly :(..haha :p
My voice soo does not get me girls haha..i used a program to put myself in tune...BUT DONT TELL ANYONE!...it also took like a thousand takes...DONT TELL ANYONE THAT TOO!!!
Thanks for the review and vote buddy :)
p.s...me and sobstory are doing a colab in about a week haha
chrilsh, I have to first agree that your clean tone and the way you have worked on developing this chord-melody tapping makes this so enjoyable to listen to and even more so if one is also a guitarist...beautiful melody and textures, this is great work!
thanks for sharing this man!
victormusic01x...in the nyC...trying to get this voting stuff right
Wooo a vote =D thanks man!
haha ye im a guitarist lol. im working on a new one like this...im trying to develop this style..BUT ITS HARD!!! its difficult to put percussion into it and play scalic runs at the same time...im trying to get the boxed off lol
Thanks for the vote and taking the time to listen :)
Nice style, nice touch. This track has great atmosphere and a relaxing effect. Seems like a great deal better than just "messing around" to me. Good work!
haha it was just messing about :p sometimes i get massive spurts of creativity..and the rest of the time i cant write crap haha :p
But i am proud of this song....i like pretty sounding things haha
Actually, I have a different twist on the percussion here. It wouldn't have worked nearly as well if it hadn't been a step behind the guitar, and would have left the track feeling more "overdubbed" than it does. If I was remastering it, the perc levels could use some tweaking (maybe raised in places?), other than that I think it's a fabulous piece of work. Cheers.
I have attention deficit when it comes to music so it takes a lot to keep my interest. This definitely did with the variety and the changes that happen right when they are needed. It was relaxing and yet musically interesting at the same time. That is perfect. Put out more like this. I also like the bird background. I made me feel like you were tapping out a tune on the front porch on a summer day. Awesome. Kper
haha thanks for the comment buddy. i do often go into the back garden and play guitar...usually try and draw something in from different surroundings...now and then it works :p
Im glad it kept you interested and i will try and make more songs like this!
Okay, so here am, I really enjoyed it. Your voice is really soothing and melancholy all at once ( I say that as a compliment) I like how a musician can really put you in the mood he/she wants you to be in and this song really put me in a forlorn romantic kinda of mood. This is the style of stuff I see on your album!!!! Maybe we could sing and write something like this together.
haha boy this is some sick guitar, some of the back dropp instruments were a little off time...sounds to me like you spend alot of time in the studio...you get a deal or something? how do you afford it O.o
hey man..im a music student so i dont have to pay :p....the out of time playing is the drummers fault.my bass playing and guitar playing was in time...but i had to cut it up coz of the drummer lol..i wasn gonna upload this coz of that...but i did...theres only so much you can do with a crap song to make it sounds better..i tried lol :p
p.s i would love to have gotten a deal :p
hahaha bud...just wow, ive seen this playing style before, and attempted it a couple of times, but i couldnt get the hang of it...you blew it away. spot on man...beautiful as neverland bud...im really digging your stuff.
hey matt! thanks for the comment buddy i always appreciate it when you take your tome to listen to my songs coz i think a fair few of yours are amazing! im trying to get this style to a higer level...im only at step one so far out of like 10 :p....been youtubeing exorcises for it haha
Thanks again buddy!
Your sound card is better than mine. I would like to listen to this but it is all distorted. What I can make out sound like some rolling stones " Paint it balck"
i hate it when it does that :( some of my tracks tend to do it..it sounds fine from here...but goes all wierd with some of my friends like distorted :( thanks for the review anyway buddy :p il try and sort that out now!
Man this is seriously awesome...great tone and feel. Very nicely done. I would love to collaborate on some tracks. This is very clean...great recording the birds are a good touch or maybe more robots. I have a track with frogs.
you do not have a track with frogs!..you made me look then haha :p...i was thinking about putting robots in it and giving it more of a terminator feel :p i really need to get a song started for you to sing on dude...i think i will get that started tomorrow :p..gonna have a dabble in the rock genre i think...if you have anything in mind man send me it over and i will see if i can do something with it! cheers for the listen martin!
This is the very first acoustic track that Im fav'ng. I mainly do hip hop and chill out but on occasion I'll stop and check out an Acoustic track ... Well, the peacefullness you acquired with this display is unmatched, for real. I really dont know what else to say about this other than the ambiance of the birds tying everything together, it worked nicely. I have a track that Im almost done with where I incorporated birds within a forest and after hearing this Im sticking with that. If I were you, run with this style as well as your others. Keep doin your thing.
wow thanks for faving it buddy and thanks for giving it a listen! il have a listen to your track when its done..i dont really give hip hop a chance to be honest but im gonna have a dabble :p
Thank you for your kind words!
Even tho the birds were a nuisance to you. They add a really great ambiance to the composition. Beautiful acoustic playing! Liked the tapped harmonics and the reverb.
haha ye they wer doing my head in...but i thought sod it il use em!..took ages to get rid of the rest of the noise...like the cars and stuff...had to EQ them out lol
thanks for a nice comment man :)
Chris
