I'm not one that likes to hear the balance of harmony, changed
so what you want to do...Is for what and why would you, want to...
If you've got the talent to change my sound...Then you should
be able to do your own...And perfect it...
See listen and learn, then you can take someone else's stuff and
do...So for today it's:
Sweet! The fact that this is an unfinished work is a testament to your musical genious. I love the soulful funky rawness of the guitar. Well done, you!
I thank you for your kind words, this is just messing around but
it turned out not bad...Genious is a long way beyond this, you don't
get there when you want to...It lets you in for a moment and if you're
paying attention, you learn something that you can, take back with you
when the door closes... :)
Really loved the smooth Allman-Brothers style guitar playing licks. Really tastefully done! I loved how each guitar fit into its own space in the track!
Allman-Brothers...A few good friends in the first band, that have
moved on to the band in the sky...
I hope to see them when I get there...hahaha :)
Guitars:
Just trying a little different placements, in the mid range and highs
bottom end is strong but to me the drums, make it feel wrong...
They will change when I find the time...
Glad you enjoyed it...
It was never meant, to be anything but a test run for my New Guitar
the tracks are logged and filed, if and when I want to get down to the nuts and bolts, by mixing my CD or something then and only then
will adjustments be done...
What an atmospherical, moody, tasty, superb track!
Just sitting around you and enjoy this jammy trip with the smile on my face...somewhere in time...:-)
The Guitar is a 1970 Model Samick...Did you know, they made
the 1st Gibson's for the Gibson company...
The one I have, looks and feels like an "SG" model, one piece
body and neck...Plays like a dream, I had somewhere in time... :-)
Thanks My Man...
And may the winds of life blow, only good things your way...
Nice to see this one getting some attention TG...I know I commented before...but I was thinking that all that snow & winter storms you guys have been getting down your way must be keeping a lot of folks homebound...good time to do some more music...I have a brother down in your Prov.and I think his place is pretty much burried......I would help you shovel, but my chiropractor is already getting rich by my just trying to keep the driveway clear here...keep on & all the best...Ed
Yep..been digging for days now, that's just around the house
drifts up over, all the windows and doors...MF'er...
Driveway my boy comes by with his Tractor Blower, 300ft driveway
wouldn't even think of doing that...
But he can't get close to the house, wish he could...
Got a few big young guys, down the road they got girls friends
and need money, if we get anymore they'll have the money... :-)
Then your brother knows how I feel...Cause I feel his pain..
Wonderful track: funky with some sadness.
The work on the guitar is really outstanding: the solo at 1:11 is "tormented" at the right point.
The only thing I am not too fond of is the drum-part: it sounds a bit too "drum-machine-like". But I say the same on many tracks from the Sign-o-the-Times album... so it may just be my problem :-)
Ciao, Domenico
Thanks...Mr.
Tormented...Have not heard that in a long time, " I was very much so"
not so much any more these days... :-)
All the guitar sounds and the drums, are the ( Digitech-RP355 )
this was one of the first tracks, I did with this Processor...
It has about 40 different Drum Kits and all the variations there of
sound wise...
Now I just use the click track, to lock BPM's to a track...
Every now and then I may use a cymbal crash or something
but that's it...For Drums now I use the Alesis-SR18 much more
flexible in every way...
singing is central I agree. I vocalize most mornings even though I would not put my voice out there for folks. that you get this concept is obvious from your expressive and flexible guitar work. thoroughly enjoyed your track. and I hope you rediscover a new actual voice. cheers.
Yes I can talk... But I've lost my range and the control I once had
in my singing voice...
I know what a good voice should sound like, and I don't have it
anymore...
But the Guitar works well as a replacement...
Glad you enjoyed it...
Hey, this is pretty groovy! I like the guitar work very much! Is that a keyboard solo around 2:45 or so? Wasn't fond of the actual patch used on that part, though the playing was awesome. Very dynamic jamming all around. Has lots to love!
Thanks Glad you like the Guitars...
Well the soloI did a while ago, not being a good keyboard player
I gave it a shot...I think it may not be my best solo, but I don't
mind it...At this point the song done, as far as I'm concerned so
be it as it may, that's the way it's going to stay...
hi. this is cool. I am in a funky mood now and it is sounding really fine like this. for me it is definitely a pop kind of oriented funk. a perfect track to sing over some great bnb/blues song. it might be very hard to find a proper vocalist that way though... I mean... I put so much effort to reach the musicians on this site personally but still find the 'collab' thing as extremely challenging.
Good luck!
I really enjoyed your song. Alex
Yes...Alex thanks for stopping in...
I'm not really looking for someone to sing this, this track
is not about love or pleasure, it's about frustration and pain
nobody wants to hear that in words...So I'll leave it just Music...
"Collabs"...Are hard if you have a controlling producer that wants
you to play what he, wants you to play...
I don't work like that anymore, this is just fun for me I don't want
to email and talk for a week, about a track unless there is a
potential payday at the end...
I just don't have the time other wise...
Yeah...Not really looking for any words, know body want to hear
the things I was saying, this was way more then Adult Content
and I won't even want to go there now...
Glad you liked the Guitars...
Can understand that you feel frustrated, but to sing THIS track realy good, the most will have some problems :) .....
Very cool track for my opinion and words come while listen. But they come and come and come and come. Like a fast rap but sung in a funk style ..... very powerfull ..... I am realy not sure that i could preform this track in one go :)
And you have your guitars ... I even cant play realy barre.
I like the track and hope you will not be to frustrated any longer ......
I'm over it now, that was a moment in time that we all, have to face
at one point in our life...There is just no way around it, as you get
older...And we all do that...
This was my therapy and it worked... :)
Really glad you like the track and NO...I don't think anyone could sing these line, unless they've been where I've been and feel what I feel....
Well, I came back in reply to your reply and comment on my track. I guess upon listening again, I will try to be more clear regarding the high hats. What I meant about the crispness was regarding comparison to the rest of the mix. The hats seem like the loudest part of the mix, with the most "presence." The seem to make the other drums sound very distant, while at the same time masking some of the guitar frequencies. I realize this is an unmastered track, but I can't help but think that mastering would be more successful if the balance was enhanced. I also realize that this is funk, and that is often very punchy in the high frequencies. Don't worry about my opinions too much, as funk is not my genre of choice by any means, and my ears are obviously very strange when it comes to drums and percussion... Just ask StaticNomad...heh. Thank you for your reply!
Hey, really groovy sounding stuff here! Love the guitar tones very much! "I won't quit" sounds like me when talking about tobacco... heh. The high hat part is very crisp, maybe too much so, but who am I to judge? Having a lot of fun listening! Seems like someone around has made a bit of a funk craze happen. Good work!
Thanks...Man
Really glad you enjoyed it and took time to comment...
And the drums are a little top heavy all together, I didn't
Master this track it's just a strait up mix...
So I figure if and when I do that, I'll knock the top off a bit
basically those soft touches, are the last thing you do...
I just haven't gotten around to it yet, plus it doesn't bug me
to much now...But thanks for pointing that out...
Mr. Funk pushed all, the right buttons and the loop packs so
blame it on him... :)
just keep playing that Tele, Strat & P bass TG...and I will keep tuning in...they provide you with a great voice the way you use them...I think I last did vocals in youthful band days (assisted by a couple of brews) but discovered that I had neither the voice or confidence to do what I wanted....This is finkin good listening my friend.....loved it....keep em coming.......Ed
Thanks Ed...
I hear auto tuning today, and I laugh at how they use it on those
that can't sing, in fact couldn't carry a note around the corner...
I have to use my guitar because I know I can't sing anymore but
they never could sing and use a tuner... What a joke...

now I think I understand : you wanted to sing in this track but finally have the conclusion about the guitar thing.
So finally this tune hadn't lyric at all!
-Antonius in die tribulationis
p.s hope im right.
If you can do it let me know...Lyrics that is..
And thanks for the interest in this track...
Peace...TG.
on I Wont Quit by soundhound
Im also a bit curious about the lyrics of the original version?!?
well done dear soundhound !
-Antonius in die tribulationis
And the lyric are what the guitars are singing, words of frustration
just don't roll off my lips well...losing my voice and all...
Peace....TG.
