Merrry Christmas Micky, im getting the FL keys 61 midi board for Christmas and a new mic but i'm unsure on the mic, maybe a Shure but i like the T Bone too, thanks for the check out

thanks aboe, i agree when the music gets louder it gets a little lost, i very rarely use side-chain on vox, i tend to multi-layer and chop, then i keep the main vox centred and pan everything else, all on a separate channel so i can fx everything separately I am still trying to master this engineering game, im not bad but theres lots to learn & bags of improvement to be made lol, it was just a quickie one take and minimal production, but it turned out better than i thought, thanks for ALL the feedback its appreciated

thanks so much mate, Florida sun, that would feel so strange to me, Christmas we usually have snow, thats part of it, its done nothing but pissed down for a week on the UK its grey and miserable it certainly doesn't feel festive lol, this was really just a quick piece think it will probably be my last this year, got some good rap to bring in the New Year, have a wonderful festive period Bear and we'll catch up in 2026, Happy New Year

Merry Christmas to you too Bruv, thankyou for the listen and comment its appreciated

thankyou Fanis, i can be sweet brother :). i love this time of year, i have 4 grandchildren that are my world, this is a magical time for them and grandad beard (that's what they call me) always spoils them, i never turn up with empty pockets ever, they all know that now tho, little buggers

Merry Christmas Matthias, have a great festive season, its always good to receive a comment from you mate, hope you find more time next year to bring your thing

hello Richard, I was sure you would agree with this piece and its message, we can only ever hope for peace for everyone, thanks for listening and a huge Merry Christmas from the UK brother

Merry Christmas Robin, thanks for the listen mate, a little different from me Xmas spirit and a time for reflection with a message of peace, Im sick of wars and seeing people suffer, the main news is always war somewhere tbf it feels like its been that way forever an we are supposed to be civilised

thanks for the lovely words Glenn, Christmas vibes and heartfelt, Im happy its had a good response, is all about sharing, Merry Christmas have a great time

Merry Christmas Mark, thanks for the endearing comment, i think Rudolph was guiding my path, its Christmas a time for sharing but also thinking of others too,
having pre-sets that I've built is great for workflow and your own signature as i only need to tweak things on future tracks, i occasionally add a different plugin depending on what my end result is, I've learnt so much from my own perseverance and this incredible community, thanks again for your time and support bro

thanks for the check out bro, i enjoyed doing a Christmas track, i found your track and dropped a line too bro

thankyou Emmonia, your description sits good with me laid back and upbeat enough to give Christmas feelings, i dont think i could have described it better, your a new face to our community welcome on board, enjoy yourself and let rip, show us what you got :)

Merry Christmas Anthony, i don't know whether i told you before my second name is Anthony named after my mom's brother, he is known as Tony, he was a football scout pro level Newcastle mad, he's now got dementia its so sad to see.

glad you liked this piece, it was delivered with good intentions, Christmas is a time to be happy with family. greed and power as taken over, everything 24/7 life's fast and hectic and you got to keep up,
you can really only wish for a better world, i might not have it bad but there are lots out there who really struggle, this time of year everyone should come together. thanks for the support bruv

cheers bro, i had fun on this, have a great Christmas mate

thanks Paul, i've always fancied doing a xmas track, i was happy with it tbf, i did want want my 5 year old grandson to say 'tell me a story grandad' at the begin, as the intro but my son said no chance pops he's 5, music's your thing lol, thats why its a pre-chorus opening :-)
i do agree with him if i stop to think about it tho, exposing him to social media what was i thinking. I've got 4 altogether 2 of each from my son and daughter

thanks Kay, a modern twist for the world we live in, i really thought hard on the lyrics, i appreciate your comment especially about the sentiments. i wanted Christmas but also wanted people to reflect too, Merry Christmas to you and your family

thanks for the stop off Jared, Merry Christmas bruv, i think its a tester to write a Christmas track but i thought the lyrics i wrote were cool a modern take and wow, it was Beatle like, i feel honoured. my pops was a massive Beatles fan i grew up listening to them, i have always wanted to do a Crimbo piece, so that's that box ticked. its so far from what i normally do but i love the festivities too, i got 4 grandkids

thankyou Dan, its quite difficult to write something for Christmas without being cheesy or sounding like a remix of a classic, so I was really pleased with this, although i spoke of loneliness and war , i tried to keep it bright and delivered it positively,
its my Merry Christmas to the community, I hope everyone has a great festive period, this is the real Paul,
dimestop is the character i created some people need to realise that he is NOT Paul

thanks bro, sleigh bells always say Christmas, this is so far away from what i normally do but i had fun, I have 4 grandchildren, its always a great time and its a magical time for them, thanks for the nice comment

i'll check it out bro

bro so sorry i missed this mail, thankyou for the kind words, i only ever did 1 rock track, i like listening to rock, Dankes track had me singing straight away, i should do another lol

nice to see you around bro, yeah a rhyme a day keeps the brain in shape, hope your well and still making music im sure we'll get to here you again, its nice you stopped of and left a comment, its always appreciated especially from another rapper, thanks Jonnie

thanks for the time Aaron, i tend not to go back on my tracks once i bring them, i just move on to the next, but im always up for collabs, and you being an FL user you can download it an split the stems and have a play, or if you want the original stems, i can oblige, and V, I would never tell an artist i respect to FO, i save that for the haters :) i appreciate the artist we have among us as you know and i always like feedback from them to improve my own engineering skills and sharing with colleagues is good for the soul your time is appreciated my friend

yeah loads lol, there from Nottingham 40 mins from me in Brum, they East Midlands we are West Midlands, they been about 15-20 years or so, Jason the singer and Andrew is instruments. i have been compared to them by others :) only for the lyrics tho, they sound nothing like me lol, its because we both sing about life in general governments etc, they are what you call Post Punk, they good, but Im a better singer than both of 'em lol

so nice to see you about Bear, its always a pleasure for me to see old friends still active and in music, this is my home and always will be, simply because if it wasn't for this place and especially the old school when loads took part, i would be nowhere near were i am now, this site and our community have taught me everything and im still having a ball age is just a number eh!
