Very nice song this one. This song would deserve a good mix and also bass guitar could be used here in certain points.

I like the slightly gothic mood of the song. Those weird middle eastern loops on top are very good too, they add to the mystic feel of the song.

Vocal melodies are excellent! This song just needs someone to mix it and really make all the sounds bit more clear and fatter.

But dont get me wrong, this is quality stuff! Merci beacoup!

The quality of your images is impressive. I would never have thought someone would use one of my trax to illustrate a documentary ! I love the idea, thx a lot for sharing.
T'was nice to fly above the ground :-)
Just, maybe the song is a bit too loud, I don't know. It's a "side order", not the main dish ! haha
Merci beaucoup,

This is really good. not sure I would call it weird. I'm a cinematic person so to me it has a end credits feel. I love the vocals. great piece.

Wow! My favorite singer is back!
And what a track!
What you do in the first section is really remarkable: not many people could sing with such a "minimalist" background. You are a real talent!
The second part is a bit more "standard" but very well executed and spot on (maybe a more "fluid" transition at 2:00 could help in "gluing" together the two halves).

I have only complain, but it's a bug one:
I WANT TO HEAR MORE SONGS FROM YOU!

:-)

Ciao, Domenico

janis71 replied 31st Oct 2015 - 10 years ago

Oh hi my friend! :)
Happy to be back and read from you here & there!
You're right Domenico, this sounds real awkward with these too different parts. I should've worked more on it but I'm so in love with that beautiful song.
Daccordo mi amico, I'll upload more thingies asap.
Take good care,
Kiss & hug,
Carole

hello.
the first section sounds really stylish. The transition around 2:00 with male choir is quite strange but that second part is interesting. Overall those 2 sections of the track seem a bit disconnected for some reason, at least to me. I guess it was intentional so I won't bother.
I just checked the original on yt. Your vocal version is definitely much more western-influenced but it is still very evocative. Your vocal possibilities are really impressive.

I enjoyed listening, Thank you for posting this song. Alex

janis71 replied 30th Oct 2015 - 10 years ago

Hello Alex and thx for your nice and detailled comment :)
You're right about the intended disconnected parts. Sounds a little awkward, I know, but I wanted to create a sort of soothing after a tensed beginning. Sthg like a hopeful opening.
Merci for your visit & words,
Peace,
Carole

Oh, it's so good to hear your voice again, and the improvements you have made through life experience! I know that I have heard this theme before, and it makes sense as I used to listen to gypsy music several times a week. I feel for your dark times, as I know that there is so much pain in this current. I'm just happy to run across one of your songs in the rare moment that I feel like listening to streams now. Thank you for sharing! Fave!

janis71 replied 23rd Oct 2015 - 10 years ago

Hello Spivkurl :)
Merci beaucoup for your encouraging and supportive words :)
I used to hang around with gipsy people once and discovered a brilliant culture, be it musical or cinematographic. Just wanted to pay a tribute to those friends.
I'm real happy you know (and recognized that theme, lol).
Thanks again,
Peace,
Carole

Erm.. thanks a lot but what's that "though" at the end of your sentence ? I don't get it, I'm sorry.
You're right, I did use some Persian instruments. I love them and thought they matched the thing well, that's it :)
Merci for your visit & words,

WOW!

Unbelievable pipes Carole. This is the first track I've heard of yours, so I have to make a point to check out your repertoire. I'm a bit embarrassed to admit that I have no idea what this song is or have any familiarization with Bregovic's work but I do recognize and appreciate a beautiful voice.
Thanks for letting us sample your amazing talent.

janis71 replied 23rd Oct 2015 - 10 years ago

Hello Neomorpheus,
No need to feel embarrassed at all, please !
None of us knows everything and everyone, huh ? :)
I do thank you for your very nice comment (and surely undeserved !).

Pretty Cool. It would be good if there was a collaboration coming up. I'd like to see what your song would sound like with somebody else's style of sound thrown in as well.

Hello Sford,
Thnx for your words. Yeah, why not consider a collab together.

Well hello again Carole you did have a good sense of timing to release these deep messages. Dig the instrument sounds and vocals, did you put everything together yourself? Felt cinematic to me I liked it and your voice and lyrics really share a strong view of hope. Nice. I enjoyed the ideas here, thanks for sharing. Peace.

janis71 replied 20th Jul 2015 - 11 years ago

Hello Dave,
Nothing much to say about the "music", honestly.
It's just so moving to get back here and come across friends like you...
Thank you from the bottom of what's left of it.
Take care.

Nice place to be lost, when one looks beyond ones nose and
travels beyond what one can see, they are not lost...
They have found that place we all seek, that is the place where
Ideas are born dreams are lived, "The walk about" that transitional
place of growth...Take time to understand it all, just got to live it... :)

Your talent tells me, GOD gave you a gift, that he only gives to his
Angels that sing for the world, when they are here...
It is a gift that you must learn to enjoy and not let it destroy you
as a person...I'm sure you've seen them by the wayside...

This is more then Beautiful it's Magical I would like to hear more...
And will look at your page...

Peace...TG.

janis71 replied 20th Jul 2015 - 11 years ago

I don't know how to speak what I felt while reading your comment, TG...
May God bless you for your words that reminded me how good it feels to be alive. T'was so dark where I've been. I'm sorry, it's still quite hard to get back in touch with the world...
Be welcome on my page. May you survive my poor music skills :)
Merci, from the deep,
Carole

janis71 replied 20th Jul 2015 - 11 years ago

Hello Orlando,
Erm no, I really can't accept any compliments from you about the music, as I told Ed.
I thank you for listening to my humble try on that piece you visibly know.
Brekovic surely heard it sung by an angel while sleeping.
Merci for your words.

That transition to the last section (around 2:00) is great Carole...but so is the whole performance....So good to hear that talented voice of yours again...its been a long while....Bravo..Ed

janis71 replied 20th Jul 2015 - 11 years ago

Hello Ed,
So good to get back here... Far from the surrounding dirt. Erm...
I just wanted to try singing that beauty of the gipsy folklore. The music around is crap, nothing compared to what true musicians like you, Behnam, Bear and loads of others here are able to do.
Music and true love are the only treasures on earth to me now.
I've missed you and the fam...
Hug and kiss.

How good to see/hear a new post from you Carole...I am a bit late finding this one I see...but I had stopped by your place several times in the past hoping to hear something from you...perhaps I repeat myself but you have a fantastic voice and such expressive delivery...and your versatility shows in this one again....Like it just the way it is......It is a bit of an unusual combination but that is the kind of thing that makes it creative and your talent makes it good listening too....well done....Ed..(PS: I had a track posted using some of your acapellas until I started reducing the numver of posts over on my page....not sure if you had a listen but would be happy to send you a copy of the mix if you like...still have your contact info from last year )

I only have 2 qualms with this one:

1. Audio quality. Easy fix: Render out in wave, then convert to either 320kbps or 450kbps.

2. Vocals. Easy fix: Turn them down about 1-3db

That's about all I can think of ^_^
