on to the sea by Zootman
Nothing like an acoustic git and a singer. Singer/songwriter music is my passion. It makes the performer vulnerable and exposed and the ability of that person to write now becomes very important as the song needs to hold it's weight with so little going on.

I think it sounds fine, the acoustic has some nice reverb on it. I usually always record the instruments and singing separately, for mixing purposes, it's easier I think. You did a great job for recording and playing all at once. Dig the lyrics too!

yeah a bit like finding yourself naked in public eh! Separate would definitely be easier for mixing etc but then when u sing you've got to work out where the words are supposed to go and i find that hard, specially like in this one with no real steady beat. guess its a trade off in spontaneity and other things. Anyways, i appreciate your time and comments, thanks.

on PROXIMITY WARNING by terryjmhitsong
Nice track Terry!

Brought me back to those days of piling up and burning disco records in large stadiums in the US, lol. I can appreciate it more these days, especially there were some really great musicians in those r n b and funk bands. It did bring me back to the 70's, has that Cool and the Gang feel.

Some real nice parts in this track, some peaceful moments. Hope you get someone to do a vocal part that is appropriate.

on Deutschland by ClickbaitCabaret
I like the guitars in the track. I suppose you could substitute some of trump's rants and get the same unfortunate result.

But if you overlaid someone like Martin Luther King or Thich Nhat Hanh on top of the music weather it would have the same emotional response.

The instrument selection in some odd way reminds me of the Cars, Moving in Stereo song.

You created a nice atmosphere right from the beginning. Chillin' out music after dinner, sitting on the deck relaxing. The bass is singing like Barry White, he.

on The Floater by StarTravels
The real Space Jam! Well done fellas, such a cool blend of sounds and effects, live guitars, synths, pads, drums and the kitchen sink. Intro was fantastic and the journey after that was fun, a kaleidoscope for the ears.

on Painful Numbness - SuicideJ - Julio Oliveira by Juliooliveira
You're right, the pella is damn good! I like the "in your face" mix, this song needs that impact. There's good dynamics in the song, some nice changes that build up and bring down the song. And great intro/ending too!

Very cool!

on Sitar Funk by chesterfester
I have no problem with the sitar, hell, George Harrison played them on Beatles albums. I like the track, puts me somewhere in my mind. Nice composition, lots of space in the song, nice breaks. Great percussion and a lot going on, had to give it a few listens to soak it all up.

They sell an electric 6 stringed guitar that sounds like a sitar I've always wanted to buy, someday.

Thanks Hump, yes GH was a master of any stringed instrument I bet.

It is just the tones you get from one, must be in my DNA somewhere! I do love a good curry too...........

Thank you for taking the time to listen and comment.

Positive and uplifting track. I like songs in minor keys. This would be nice with some drone video over some beautiful scenic parks or landscapes.

on Nothing Before You by Micky
Man, I smiled through the whole song! You fill the whole soundscape with textures and sounds with great effects on them so well, it's always a treat for my ears. Classic strat guitar sound, always loved the rhythm guitar in the r n b and dance tracks from the 70's.

You commented on how simple my song was the other day, this one is so much more complicated with all thats going on, almost the exact opposite, ha! It's all good!! Great job Micky!

Wayne
Micky
Micky replied 4th May 2021 - 5 years ago
Oh, I'm sorry, but this is no Strat but an Epiphone Sheraton – the one that Gallagher used with Oasis. I play just everything with this wonderful thing. You know I need a better wah pedal – my old one is no use. I always wanted a Maestro Boomerang - that's the one Melvin Ragin used. But they're so rare and if you find one you can't afford. I'm sure I can find a modern alternative now that's a bit cheaper.

Your 'simple' song – yeah I'd say simple songs are the royal class. I think in writing music there's nothing more difficult than a simple song. I mean one that's simple YET striking. You come pretty close to that!

Thank you for the friendly comment,

Micky

on Pop Smoke Type Beat - Spanish Guitar Thing by randomuser13
Very cool, I've always loves acoustic guitar with a latin flair to it. I agree with Terry, many styles of singing, scatting, spoken word.... would work well with this.

This is nice! Relaxing vibe and I like the mix too. So many audible textures and layers to sink into and float around in. Yeah, so you did your job well, I'm certainly more chilled out than earlier, cool.

on signing off by xstokes
I like the amp noise, as a musician it is a sound of expectation of the sound that will soon follow. The Edge would appreciate your use of effects to create space, an atmosphere, a setting, a place to escape to.

"Cat"atonic vibe! he, sorry.

on TURNING A TRICK by terryjmhitsong
Good to see ya Terry!

This one certainly makes you want to grab your favorite dancing partner and get your whole body moving and jumping to the beat. All I can picture in my mind are the dancers in Setzer's vid of Louis Prima's song Jump, Jive and Wail going off to this one. Fun song!

on Mirjam Is Really Something by Orlando51
Good to see you Leon! Hope all is well in your neck of the woods.

Nice track but I've come to expect that from you, the quality of the composition and the overall production is top notch. Terry mentioned Stevie Nicks. You know, I can almost hear her raspy voice singing over this.

btw, who let the dogs out? Nice touch, woof!

on Cold Beer Blues by HamsterLewis
Firstly, anything regarding cold beer always gets my attention. Friday night jam song, while drinking cold beer. Upbeat, expressive and fun. Sounds like you may have some people adding a few things, look forward to hearing a remix!

I think I have the cold beer blues. I was metal detecting the beach this morning and found a full, unopened beer in the sand....warm. It's in my fridge chilling out now. On a good note, I found enough change to buy a frosty cold one. :)

on The Destroyer of Worlds by ClickbaitCabaret
Ah, the destroyer of worlds, Robert Oppenheimer. Recently I've been watching docus about the Manhattan Project and how the scientists felt about the bomb after it was realized it would work at the Trinity test. You've created an ominous and dark mood with this track which fits the situation at the time and how many scientists felt then. Well done!

Kinda reminds me of Nine Inch Nails a bit. Some Trent Reznor vox and I'm all in! Punchy beat and a dark feel to music. Decent mix, loud and in your face. Cool!

Was diggin' this from the first note! The lyrics are simple but say so much. The bass was great. The guitar was tasty as hell. Man you put me in the summer mood and just so happens we are getting summer weather this week.

Well done all round, mix, music, effects...!
