Great sound on the guitar and vocal and excellent performance and composition - Im thinking your daughter must be very happy with a song like that for her own : )

on horse to water by Zootman
woo hoo - nice lots of interest and shifts in the tone and instruments coming in and out. I was thinking it would be better faster in the first part of the tune - you know a bit more ska like for the energy but I think it settled into a very nice groove

Good Cooking - (said because) using samples in like going to the fridge and cupboard and trying to figure out what you can do - sometimes a great result even with a recipe

Excellent! It's absolutely perfect and your voice is awesome. I downloaded it just to listen as any other song. I was thinking of making a remix with some acoustic bass and just a subtle touch of synths, on the background (softer) keeping your track on the sonic foreground. If I do that I will send you the end result. Thanks for sharing and congratulations for your brilliant work.

Instantly transported back to the 70s. Sweet sounding guitar.
Love the echo on the vocals.

Thanks Memphis, appreciate that. you know I've had that guitar for about 35 years. I call it Berna after my old german grandmother who left me the money to buy it when she died. but i digress. I did wonder if it was a bit heavy on the reverb maybe I'll go back and change it but you know how it is, sometimes you just gotta move on.

I would definetly put this on my spotify playlist. It is such a good song and recorded very well. I woudnrt change a thing except make the song a bit longer :-). SOmetimes when your vocals are on a low register the lower frequencies are a itchy bit distorting, but i would keep it in to emphasize your very warm vocals. You got talent, sir! Greets, Auke

Wow it feels like I'm discovering pink floyd again for the first time. I can't really explain it, something about this is nostalgic, yet I've never heard this before. This is like a live performance where the singer actually sounds like the studio recording.

Greetings Zoot, I did love this track all the way. To bad it was a little bit to short for me. But still, It has a pleasant ring to it. So yeah very well done indeed. So thumps up for this one. I noticed this track is also live recorded but in a proper way this time. I heard some pieces out there, that didnt sound to great when recorded live. But this one was prety well done. Have a good one and keep up the good work, Verdi

A star has been born! You have a raw natural talent not heard by many here. It is that raw unplugged human sound that draws people to your song. You got natural timeless vocals. The stings are all you need when you have a voice like yours. Man, you should have been doing songs like this out the box on this site. Congrats on a very amazing song that everyone can enjoy. Do not hold back any longer, give us more in the future man, the cat is out of the bag zootman2u.

Cheers!

Hi Mr Axel, those are some very nice words and immensely flattering. I don't know why it took me so long once I had the hardware/software to go back to where i started with making music - just mucking around on an accoustic and making up little ditties like this and singing them to the walls. easy to be sidetracked i guess. hopefully there'll be some more. thanks again for your very kind words, all the best Chris

Really liked the honesty about this. As mentioned in one of the comments, I would like to hear this re-recorded, guitar and vocals separate. I think that would be a masterpiece. But, what do I know ?

Keep up the good work....

Not sure whether you intended it to be, but this is definitely a throwback to the 60's Folk singer-songwriter era (think Joni Mitchell, Dave Van Ronk, Cat Steven, etc.). Your voice is perfectly matched to this genre. Thanks for sharing it, and well done, you!

LovePeace&Light,

Hi Mykael, thanks a lot for your time. No real intentions beyond getting my clumsy fingers in the right place on the fretboard and being half satisfied with the result! some illustrious references you dropped there though.

Has a 60's era folk feel to it. Ad a synth track & some dramatic, middle eastern type percussion & this could easily morph into a Dead Can Dance kind of sound.

thanks a lot, appreciate the listen and comment. i am familiar with dead can dance, or at lest one album anyway.

Nothing like an acoustic git and a singer. Singer/songwriter music is my passion. It makes the performer vulnerable and exposed and the ability of that person to write now becomes very important as the song needs to hold it's weight with so little going on.

I think it sounds fine, the acoustic has some nice reverb on it. I usually always record the instruments and singing separately, for mixing purposes, it's easier I think. You did a great job for recording and playing all at once. Dig the lyrics too!

Zootman replied 17th Jun 2021 - 4 years ago
yeah a bit like finding yourself naked in public eh! Separate would definitely be easier for mixing etc but then when u sing you've got to work out where the words are supposed to go and i find that hard, specially like in this one with no real steady beat. guess its a trade off in spontaneity and other things. Anyways, i appreciate your time and comments, thanks.
