on No Sooner by theHumps
I love spaghetti, especially the western kind. It's always fun to go back a few years and listen to your work. This piece is timeless, and really does belong in a movie. I watched Cowboys and Aliens last night and this would have worked in several scenes.

Awesome Wayne. Love your guitar work. I now await a spring break song from you, haha.

Thanks man! I recorded all the tracks through the mic input before I owned a digital interface. For an older track it still sounds pretty good. I'm trying to do some recording and learning on Ableton and trying to recapture this type of sound again but with more quality to the recording.

Thanks for stopping by. New songs soon!

It's fun to go back and listen to some of your older tunes, and this one is especially nice since it is the season :)

Absolutely beautifully constructed and orchestrated. It shows your compositional skills off nicely. A great tune to listen to with my hot chocolate tonight. Happy holidays Wayne. I hope all is well.

Hey Bear, Happy Holidays! One of my first attempt at using loops and is one of my most dl'd song.??? haha, oh well.

The beach has been fun and I've made many friends and met a bunch of musicians down here. It was 80 degrees the other day and this morn it's 38. brrrrrr, lol! In the 70's almost every day, not bad for winter weather and no shoveling snow!!

Thanks and take care Grandpa!

Thanks Kenny, this is one of my fav tracks I've done. Got some great help from using the loops of some talented people here, I tip my glass to them.

wow,Wayne, talk about painting a picture. This has such a great cinematic feel. Brings me back to those great Sergio Leone's films with Clint Eastwood. The mix was the best use of my speakers today, this track is mixed to wrap right around your head.
The only thing that would improve this is if the smell of Gunsmoke, leather, Whiskey and Cigars started to come out of my monitors.

Faved!!

(p.s. thanks for catching my slip-up the other day and saving me even more embarrassment)

Good looking out!

This is simply played and was put together with no effort. It has a bit of a western feel to it, kinda my style I guess. Glad you liked it!

Sorry I forgot to get around to wishing you Merry Christmas but I'm not late for wishing you and yours all the best for the upcoming year!!

Awesome awesome awesome! Definitely a bullfighting or cowboy riding through an open desert at dusk song. You did a great job arranging the percussion loops and beautiful guitar and bass playing. The harmonica adds to it perfectly and overall a moving piece.

Had to hear this one twice! Love the intro! Your guitar and bass work is fantastic, as usual! Good to hear TheThanx's harmonica in there, it fits right in! Those percussion loops are awesome, they work perfectly for this style! Totally awesome intense song! Faved for sure!

Thanks for checking this out. All the loops were great, I chopped and edited some to get them to fit where I needed them but they were exactly what I was looking for.

Play 2 now...

Well, I'd say that you achieved yer goal rather nicely here. I could see this being used for a jewelry ad or luxury car commercial. And I dunno why, but this kept making me wanna sing along to it. Then I remembered that car scene in Scary Movie 2 and then the song started reminding me of that one Vitamin C tune from about 10 years ago. Which prolly explains the singing along part, haha. Only tech-side thing I could suggest is if those mini-piano loops were done in midi to switch 'em out to a grand for certain parts (to help give 'em a richer quality, ya know). Otherwise, this was pretty nicely done. Cheers!

These were all Audition loops that came with the software. Sounds like Canon loops, fun to put together, hadn't used loops much when I did this. It has a nice holiday feel to it.

Happy Holidays Donnie!

Thanks John! My mixing is getting better so my mastering is easier, the result is better sounding productions I guess. Planet's loops were great, they really set the tone I think.

Hey John, thanks for the nice words, I'll swing by soon and listen to more of your great music!

Happy holidays!(i like your avater, now that's what I want to find under the tree!)heehee

I don't know how I missed this track earlier, but this is great. Everything flows together nicely and really tells a story/sets a scene, which is very powerful in my opinion. Good job with this one.

As a Taurus, I find this track completely offensive!! And you better watch out, I'll gore you with my horns!! haha, just kidding, Wayne. I am glad that after my long absence I can come here and listen to new tracks from you. Hopefully I will stick around this time. As for this track: you have a serious talent for arrangement. You really know what works together and what doesn't. Keep it up!

theHumps replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
You are personally invited anytime to listen to my music. I hope you stay healthy enough to be here a long time, just stay off those scooters!!;)

horns, ok, I'll leave that one alone...haha.

Thanks so much, you are great, look at all the reviews you just gave me. Thanks for the nice words.

Talk to ya later,

This reminds me of my youth in Wyoming, when it was legal to drink at the ripe old age of 18, and some of the nights I spent in the Silver Spur Bar. Man, what a nasty place that was, but the beer was cold and cheap, and that was all that counted.

The place was full of cowboys all the time, smoking Pall Malls, reeking of horses. Deep lines etched in their faces as they stared into their drinks. These were real tough guys that would just as soon kick your you know what as look at you, hahaha. I miss those times.

Thanks for bringing back my youth, if only for 2 minutes and 53 seconds. A masterful job.

I love when music takes you back to a certain period in your life, certain songs do that for me too. I can't hear Jose Feliciano's version of Light My Fire without it bringing me back to a child of about 4 y.o., sitting in the backseat of the car waiting to pick up my Dad from work.funny.

Thanks for stopping by,

Great composition! I can feel the western/mexican fevers for sure! Really well built up, between the tension and suspense while the torero and the bull are fixating each other, considering their next move, and the confrontation itself when the beast is charging...
Great track!

Wonderful composition, Wayne. El Torero about to enter the ring. Just before his ghosts and after praying to the Virgin de la Macarena. In the square, waiting for a morlaco of 500 kilos of Valdeamor livestock. Great ...

Hey Wayne..man this is so south of the border it tastes of salt and lemon!it might be worth pointing out before I go any further that "The Western" demographic is hard wired into my brain,has been since I was a kid.....love the whole motif running through this,it's traditional Sergio Leone in some aspects but also has a contemporary darker crossover hovering around the periphery..Thanx's harp fits in very well and the guitar is straight from the cantina!great bass as well!.....I also like the space within the piece,lending the listener ample scope to experience the whole soundscape..great work.Love it!..cheers Dave :)

I know what you mean, I'v always love the music in western movies, especially in Sergio Leone's. Appreciate the loops, they were fantastic and really are a big part of setting the mood and impact when they kick in so thanks a heap!!
