It sounds morelike jazz than chill. I like it. I do some jazz myself.

Great track, a cross between jazz and some sort of slow rock. I love it!

Great track!

Thanks man! Tone is something I'm always trying to improve. But then again, it's just one of many things I'm trying improve!..

Hi Filaofsoul, thank you for your supportive comments on my tracks. I am embarking on the RPM challenge in Feb. This means writing and producing 10 tracks in a month. Now that's refreshing...

Well, browsing the many artists on this site, A live sax section with brass was not something I was expecting! I can tell your a man of perfectionism, and obviously took some time over this song! and the flute solo was awesome! I have to say though, I was waiting for the drums to break into a powerful beat, accompnaied by the horns. But hey, suprise is the name of the game right? You are an upholder of the fundementals of music and dont let anyone else tell you otherwise!

Hi Lorin, thanks for your kind words. Point taken about the drums! I could have seriously built that kit up. Maybe time permitting I will revise the drums...

A great usage of ballad lines and slower tempo. You certainly seem to have a penchant for strong fills at the end of turnarounds and at new sections on beat 1, which shows through well on this. Have you though about changing up the rhythm of the tenor lines (in the way that makes the later choruses of the flute solo so effective), to indicate a bit more tonal movement and energy growth (perhaps a bit less reverb in some higher phrases?) A thoroughly enjoyable listen -- not often to I hear ballads done with this combination of soulful simplicity and energetic give-and-take. Keep it up!

SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Hi Npk417, the thing I like about your reviews are the understanding/constructive comments. I am a huge ballad fan (playing alot of jazz standards in a band for many years), Yeah I agree with you about the sax line, I suppose I was trying to stay simplistic, but I could have altered the rhythm without losing the flow. I'm still getting to grips with ableton, so the reverb trick I will try and sort for the next track. I will given time stop by your page and listen to your tracks soon.

Nice switch in this, some sweet sax work. I think you should work on the drums next tho, get them sounding a little nicer, and a little less rigid.

Did you play all in instruments?
SLAPJOHNSON
SLAPJOHNSON replied Unknown - 2028 years ago
Yo end!! Yeah I played everythig you hear, apart from the drums which I bought! They are real samples of live kits. I think I should get a refund after your remark lol....

My pod? I'll mind if you don't mention my unmentionables mate...

Hahaha. Sorry about that man, couldn't resist.

Okay, I pressed replay because for some odd reason this is soundin all funky (no pun intended). Yeah, it sounds like it's being played underwater or out of a speaker that's been stomped on. It's kind of distracting.
What bitrate did ya upload this at? Coz I know that when ya drop down to 80 K the stuff starts sounding all jacked up.

Pushing past that I'm lovin her vocals and this track has an Oldies vibe all about it. I could really see this being played on one of those stations. During the mid or late 60's mix (they tend to play around lunchtime). Very groovin dude. Just wished it was playin right so I could get the whole feel for it. Later on!

on Total Count by SLAPJOHNSON
This is an interesting combination of such rich horn-section sound and a more dirty harp/slide vibe. I can tell your interest heads both ways, make sure to listen carefully to how you blend them so they don't clash. The bright, polished horns (reminiscent of Motown to a strong degree) have a dominant place in the mix, and this makes it especially difficult for the tonal qualities of that harp to cut through. The same sort of clash occurs at times with the slide guitar part. This song looks toward an interesting marriage of those types of sounds - it's important to do it carefully. Kudos, and keep up the good work!

This is certainly a gem in your lead vocal selections - like Bryan Adams meets Billy Joel. And the tune is a great arrangement and piece of songwriting. Definitely some representative soul in this number! Keep it up! Any chance of this being available for download? I'd enjoy listening to it with my car's audio rig too.
