Man, what a beautiful waltz with a desert touch and tumble weeds.
It's Quentin all over and I guess Bill better watch out, Beatrix Kiddo wants to get even.
I love the heavy bass and the song – an instant fav. Excellent work, my friend.

I love using the waltz beat. Ya, I think the bass is carrying it's own weight in this song.

Take care!

Thanks again Jamie. I was just reading your earlier review, one of my first reviews as well. And I did check out Randys track(s) and then he reviewed this just after you, haha! Thanks for checking it out again.

Wow.
I got chills instantly.
That's a fave in my book.

You rock tits!

OH, haha, again going with my response thing, a thing I learnt workin in a studio for a bit, was when recording some acoustic steel strings, is to soak the left hand in water for 4-10 minutes before the take, then the skin becomes kinda soft and won't cause any of the squeaky mouse sounds.
Lotion works too, but then you get grimey strings.

I loved it man.
You are a standout musician with a twenty foot ear for music.

theHumps replied Unknown
Thanks man. I know what you mean about the string squeeks. I have a great tool in Audition called the spot healing brush, it removes these squeeky noises and things like that. I got rid of the worse ones and left a few in to show off, haha. No really, just left a few in to show it was an honest day at the office.

Thanks for the nice words, much respect back!

Sweet and Latin flavor. I was delighted and I know that the Spanish guitar solo is tempting. But you should make a longer version, no more than three minutes (I know you), with a singing part in the middle. So sure was my fav, because the sound you've done is tremendously tempting.
theHumps
theHumps replied Unknown
Thanks, I knew you would like this, haha! I would like to get some of the feel of this track on the track you sent me. This is why I play guitar, this song makes it so much fun to do it!!

It might be short, but it's really effective! I love the bass on this, I'm guessing you played it. Nice jazzy percussion! Love this track!

Thanks Spiv! Actually, the bass loops are from Audition's loop package, don't own a doghouse, yet.

Very good Wayne!I can see why they wanted to use this...the lead is actually singing the notes which is so nice to hear.Did this have vocals or could you just hear the melody?Some of my songs I have a melody in my head but most of the time I just ramble on and hope for something to happen:)
Hope your feeling well my friend.
Allen
theHumps
theHumps replied Unknown
Thanks Allen, the lead just meanders it's way through the song, nice and simple. This never had vocals, just played the melody on guitar. Sometimes I add a couple of melodies on guitar in a song and I leave myself no room for vocals, ha, the decision to make it an instrumental is easy at that point!

Take care Allen,

Ah, very good medicine for the ears. Very beautiful guitars, a strange guiro in the distance. Is that a guiro? yes I vote for some minimal vocals for this track. Thanks for sharing.

Beautiful melody, beautiful sounds, no many instruments, a music plaid at the right level, which sends me to my young years.
Ok, I'll listen it again, if you wish !

This is a great track, but might be a bit too well done for a true punk song from back then, lol. The only criticism I have is that it ended too soon :-) Other than that the track is super sweet.

Heh heh great punk song my friend definately has an iggy popish sound to it and the lyrics totally match the 70's-80's style you were very obviously trying t convey. Keep up the good work mate!

He also said you have to be the change you want to see in the world, if depopulations your thing, then so be it.

theHumps replied Unknown
This isn't the place to argue politics and everyone's entitled to their own opinion so lets leave it at that. No hard feelings here but maybe we should keep the discussion to music, a much happier topic. The lyrics are tongue in cheek in the song, taken from the self centered punk attitude of the late '70s of, why is everybody picking on me or something like that.

I also have a song called "My Way or the Highway" which has the same "poke at society", tongue in cheek lyrics. The two songs make a social statement to some degree, and were meant to. They were also written to be chuckled at at the same time. In a way, I'm glad you responded as you did because it struck a nerve with you, but isn't that what a good song is supposed to do, stimulate some kind of emotional response? I think I succeeded at doing that with this song.(a shameless pat on my own back,haha)

btw, I don't and will not have any children(46 yo)so I've put my money where my mouth is. ;)

Take care,
Wayne

Good track, but the planet is NOT OVERPOPULATED. It's an agenda to cull a bunch of people on the planet. Hence the UN sterilising starving women for cash and food. Don't believe everything you hear. Good music tho.

You really captured the true essence of punk rock with this track. the message in the vocals really explains the angst almost everyone feels at some point now a days.

Thanks man! Ya, I know what ya mean about the angst we all feel, that sums it up here!
