Well - I tried to retweak that vox again today to bring it up and didnt bother to tapper the end this time so its 5 seconds of floating nothingness at the end. But yeah it's 25 tracks in the final mix and some of the synth parts are constructed separately before being added in hence the wild mess of sound. Thanks for listening and the warm feedback (still got the L plates on despite my age)

Hi Micky thanks for your kind feedback, im still learning on the engineering side. was not totally happy with the volume levels, had 3 limiters on just messed to much and got fed up :))) but WTF im enjoying myself. your comment is always a plus mate thankyou.

Thank you!
It certainly did take a while.
I played most of the instruments except the guitar at the end, sadly I don't play guitar but i made the end with bass and drums and had a friend who's really talented at guitar at that then asked him for a jazzy ending so it was fire. Thanks for the feedback!

HAHA, Thanks, Micky.

Glad you like it.

Well there ya go, a great memory for sure!! Great decision Micky!

Must confess. I think I like Father Christmas as one of my favs by them, I like the song first off but I like the production on that more. Every little nuance in that song is great, the singing, the story, the guitars, the breaks....

Cheers!

Wow Micky, that's an awesome comment. The prasie makes me blush and thanks a lot for the tips!

The current drums are sort of placeholders in midi. Drums are still my weak point; recording live drums is hard (harder even than playing live drums) and the accoustics in my practice room are absolute horse shizzle, so even with a decent 4 mic setup it still sounds like bleh.

I got an electronic drumset hoping this would make recording easier, but they sound worse, so... I keep trying.

One way that seems to give decent results is to record live drums on a single mic aimed at kick/snare, then enhance them with midi/samples... but this still takes time... and I have too many projects :D (oh, and a full time job and a life of course)

I'll keep trying! And thanks so much for the encouraging words!

Big Kinks fan here, they were more of a raw 60's rock band and such great songwriting. Their music was for the common working man, it was distorted guitars and wonderful stories to be enjoyed. I liked both Ray and Dave's input and songwriting in their music.

No kidding, you saw them? That's awesome.

Take care Micky!

Mein Herr Micky,

Don't put your Guitar away yet.
We still have Quadrants to explore.
We're definitely going to need a real
Guitar player(You).
Thanks for giving the track a listen.

PEACE from the Beach hangar.

Thanks so much Micky, great points.
- yes, I generally stay away from reverb/delay - I don't really get it and whenever I use it, I generally overdo it. But it can really give a track more space, so I'll check that. Good point.
- the ending is also a good point. I'm think to do what Paul suggested, maybe a bit more guitar is warranted :)

Thanks again, much appreciated and hope you enjoy the rain! ;)

Guten tag mein Herr Micky,

The answer to your question is 3 Basses.
2 Synths and 1 Marcus Miller Funky Fingers Bass.
I really appreciate you stopping by to give my track
a listen. Your encouraging comments mean a lot to me.

PEACE... From the Beach.

Hello Micky,

You know that I have been exploring different
Genre's and kinda filtering them with my own interpretation
It's been hit or miss but I've enjoyed myself making every beat or weird sound along the way still looking for a resonant voice I can call home. Oddly enough I feel most grounded in space.

Thanks for giving the track a listen and encouraging comments.

PEACE from the Beach...

Thanks Micky. Coming up with a suitable name is a big problem :)

Thanks Micky - much appreciated

thank you micky for you kind words,now for the mix ive got 14 tracks going on this production 2 ive got for the vocals the bees is a synth bass line the rest is some thing i was feeling for the song .
thank you again micky i use logic pro x it has taken me a while to get my head around it
and yes the mix an final master is me.
thank you for listening

I really admire the singer/songwriter style of music, especially when it comes to folk music. This is basically a folk song produced to be a rock song. It's about selling the story in the song to the listener and it is hard to do. Townes Van Zandt songs can make you depressed, sad, anguished.

It's why I write so much and so fast. I'm prolific when it comes to ideas and with practice you eventually get better at songwriting, lyrics and mixing.

Honestly, I'd have a hard time making songs like you and others do and can also appreciate how you guys make your songs.

Thanks Micky, be safe!
