BananaLu

Hello BananaLu, I appreciate you listening to my track....mean a lot. I always believe there's a time and place for the shredders, but I think for a lot of music expressions don't necessarily mean a lot of action on the neck, I think so much can be expressed using very little.....just more imagination....a phrase here and there. For me more means less, if you feel it at the right time in your piece especially when improvising. Sorry to go and on.....again thank you for listening.

Hey banana, what a nice comment. Many thanks for it. I never heard the term "gnarly drums". But I had many different Drummers visiting my DAW and this simple 60s beat fits well. Sometimes easy arrangements together with a honest loving voice are going best with the dish :-) Cheers, Oli BTW that was my first contact with the Vampire world also.

Hi Banana.
Thank you so much for your big compliment.
I wish i could find more music like this where im feeling that vibe .
Days im trying now but nothing comes out of my throat like this one.

thats what im hoping for! hopefully i find a vocalist

thank you very much! good read on the bounce it was intentional.

Banana, thx for Santana mention, even in jest. He was a pretty huge inspiration for me early on. Still is. I do like to play with feeling and of course Santana is one of the best at it. Yes it definitely would be cool to hear more guitar music. Thanks for the cool comment man, I really appreciate it.

Hey brother, I really appreciate every word of that. Sometimes the work and detail that is sometimes required for a single track can be lost on the listener, so it feels good to know that putting that extra little effort in truly matters. And the vocals took me FOREVER lol, mainly because all 3 parts seemed like they were recorded in 3 diifferent decades with 3 different types of equipment lol. Its my job to figure that shit out, and I always WILL get it figured out, but this is also a learning experience for me, anyone who says they have nothing else to learn is a damn fool. The more a person learns and the more they work with people, the easier it all becomes. And BTW, anytime u feel like u can jump on a track, do so lol. chances are itll be something I can use immediately,

Hey man, thanks as always. I fixed up that problem frequency that Doudei mentioned, I think it's a lot better now. Its really allowed the the clean delay guitar fx to come through more. Cheers Chris

Hello, and thank you for your detailed comment and your great praise. If you mean the background singers, they are Mel Shazira and Angelica. Best wishes, Manuela

Lu it was a great collab with the girls and something im extremely proud of the opportunity they give me, Manuela is extremely talented and experienced, but Angelica is a young beauty too, such a talented Pianist, composer and singer, she wrote Warriors on the Beat and i think the girls vocals for it too or at least she played a part in them in sure, she maybe doesn't get the mentions she so truly deserves again all the cryptic, that was Manuela's experience, i was naming him, Manuela said if you can point a finger yet not name, people know who your talking of, it comes across more powerful, these little nuggets i am proud to share because they benefit everyone else about self expression and for your own protection too, Zoot nail summed the track up tho' the girls jump out the speakers, simply wow, love from us all

It is so pleasant to know there are listeners. Thank you for listening and commenting. I am really glad you liked the song.
Best wishes, Anthony.

Hello, dear brother! Thank you so much for your heartfelt message; it truly warms my spirit to know that my music has reached you in such a profound way. Im thrilled to hear that you felt a connection to the composition, as its always my aim to create something that feels both uplifting and grounded. Your description of the mix as warm and well-suited for big monitors means a lot to me, as I strive for clarity and depth in my work.

Im especially grateful for your kind words about my vocals and the effects used; its incredibly rewarding to know they resonated with you and enhanced the overall experience of the song. Your recognition of the honesty behind the music is deeply appreciated, as it reflects my intention to share genuine emotions and ideas through my art.

Thank you for sending your prayers and love from a bananawhat a delightful touch! Its moments like this that remind me of the power of music to connect us across distances and bring a sense of calm and comfort.

Thanks Lu - yeah I keep trying to figure out how to improve the sound production - not entirely sure it's right on this one (kind of edgy) but it fits well enough : )

Glad you liked it enough to have a crack at singing on it! Not sure I can reciprocate but we'll see. I'll reply to your email contact with my email and see how we go. Cheers Zoot.

Thanks bro yeah her voice is amazing it's her music I just helped bring out some of the melodies and tones that were already there :) Thanks for listening!

Hi Bananarama, how are you doing? I know you're a dub man, so glad you got to hear this track. I would like to do another dub thing, I did start something recently but never got around to finishing it. Maybe I should....be cool to get your vox on something mate. Here's something you might like, not regular dub but.......kinda.

thanks for the feedback.

thankyou Lu like you my brother i always try to keep original and will have a go at most genres, i am not the greatest producer just yet and sometimes let myself down with a sloppy master, one of the reasons for the Discord was to help overcome this and polish the work then upload to LM, Nik is Manuelas engineer in Germany, the whole team there have backed me and helped me achieve more than i ever thought i could, being involved in music has improved my mental health and my health in general i have another collab coming with Manuela, all the links from the site keep coming back invalid even setting them to no time limit, we are looking in to it, but the server is known as LM COMMUNITY on DISCORD, we would love you on board, it just helps people connect and share your finished work here and is so easy to do, i will get the links sorted, but you should be able to join us if you search for us
thanks for another great review my friend

Thanks

Hey man, the loop included the vocoded vocals already mixed in, and when I separated the stems, there were some anomalies in them so I just stuck with the way-off-balanced loop. It turned out pretty good, though. My friend absolutely loved it. I really do want to be different and lift my friends as much as I can. We are all much stronger if we're together and united against a common goal. Thanks for listening, man. I appreciate your time.

moin
