Hey Rei you got your funky boots on again..cool stuff man!..I'm loving this track maximus appreciato...from Eshar's cool cool accented prose to that hipshot guitar work all makes for a hot track....your guitar playing reminds me of these American yoyo experts that came out to Australia on a promotional tour in the late sixties,they blew everyone away,we all thought they were golden gods from the promised land! lol...man you weren't standing at the end of the queue when they were handing out guitar skill that's for sure!...awesome!..cheers Dave
hey Dave!!!
I love your reviews maximus appreciato ... hehe
if those guitar gods ever come back to Australia, give me a call ...
thx a lot for listening ...
You are such a professional Rei and when I say that I don't mean that you are just clinically good...because there is real emotion too.
Ha I am not explaining myself very well unfortunately. So I will just say that this sounds wonderful and I am honoured that you used my vocals. Thank You!
your voice and your lyrics are pure inspiration for me!! that being said it's easy for me to work with your work, so to say ...
thank you, thank you, thank you!!
heya rei, nice to see you in the fold again. I love the way you've mixed original riffs with pre-made content.They compliment each other quite well I think. My fav bit is the slow bass paired with piano. They give this a retro R&B/Pop vibe. Can't think of anything off-hand to suggest for this (maybe using Eshar's vocals more? expiriment with widening the overall range of everything, for a more stereo-scopic dynamic?- shrugs). Beyond all that this is golden. Later on!
thx Donnie for listening and your review!!
about the stereo dynamics, well, what your hear is only the rough mix sent through a master limiter ... it's not mastered at all, no eq's or anything ...
and I love that bassline myself ...
Rei, wow! this track gave me goose bumps. love the guitar riffs, the vocals just fit in perfectly (a playful conversation between guitar and vocals). oustanding work.
i see all kinds of awesome visions here, great material for a soundtrack. awesome quality and very "in the pocket" tune. no need to go back and listen to the old track cuz this is GREAT!
Rei, you blow me away. You've surprised me yet again and I like it. That's what great artists do – give something unexpected, still excellently performed. Now where's that fav button?
/pmk
Strong drums and bass ... very good. Synths not interfere with the voice, but it helps to create a sexy environment. All with high quality and creativity. Do not know all your work, but I heard many tracks, and yes, very eclectic. The end result is always very good. Guitar? hehehe ... Next time do not forget it ..!!! One more thing .. It is short .. great job ..!!! / VlaRB
What can I say, except everything you touch turns to gold. Well arranged, everything is well pieced together imo. I admire your diversity, something that is rarely heard among many artist, and unlike many you have a vast ocean of imagination, manifesting in to beautiful creation of music. Oh, kick a** bass line BTW, it sounds fat as hell. Thank you for this wonderful share Rei.
No Guitar?...hehe, I can dig it....no one said you have to be chained to your axe..(though I bet you sleep with it occasionally!)....I'm detecting a signature Rei keyboard style though...and a throughly throbtastic bass line!...Very cool big sound and I love Effluence's vocals(super presence)......You got that post Thomas Dolby EuroFunkDiscofrankenspurter sound going on man! lol......I dig it mucho mowcho...cheers Dave
ThomasDolbyEuroFunkDiscofrankespurter sound ... awesome ... for me that's the word of the year!!!
and how can you know that thing with the guitar? that's a secret ... ;-)
maybe you're right with with the keyboard style, thinking about it I listened to some other tracks of me, and I really found similar forms in my playing ... interesting ... I wasn't aware of it ... but that's just me I guess, I never thought "I want to sound like ....", I always just played sounds (on both, guitar and keys) and looked if the sound is telling me something, if there was a response, I wrote a song ... that's the whole secret ... haha
No guitar?? Say it aint so Rei...for the love of god man!!!
Just kidding;)
I like the funky feel...the bass sets the pace and those drum hits are consistent with the Funkness.I love the subtle sounds that cover the background with the synth and of course the voice is perfect.
I was telling Elaine in a review about how playful I hear Funk, well obviously that is very emphasized here by the synth in the back however the bass takes it on a darker side and sets the groove and kinda makes you move.
Really like the arrangement, maybe a change in the drums would have made a bit of difference on that synth solo, something a bit more aggressive and dirty.
Takes my mind to same track I kept hearing on the radio but I can't remember the exact title.....
hey ... thx Mahloo!!!
maybe you're right about the solo part, and I'm not sure if the sound for the solo could be a better one ...
but thx a lot for taking the time to listen!!!
well appreciated ...
Another Master's class in musicianship, production, arranging and composing.....which is why you are one of the most respected people on this site. This is marvelous work.
You always set the bar so high with your work and this song is no exception. Amazing and I wish I could find the favorite button :)
This track has all the right elements in all the right places,which I come to expect from you my friend.It's like sequels to a movie and they keep getting better.
Your style is very unique and I love that I can recognize your sound and that's not a bad thing...don't we all recognize our heroes?:)
The change in the song was at the right time and I do love that jazzy funk combo that you do so well as when you do a rock song..you "get it" Rei!
rerum natura is my favorite track from this site...hands down rock with a twist of funk at its finest!
Your latest track is original,unique and wonderfully familiar.
