Hey Wayne, thanks for the comment. Sorry that I am a bit late replying, busy with a lot of tracks at the moment .

Feel flattered by your kind comment ;)

Enjoy your download haha

haha glad you liked it, im still getting in the swing of things when it comes to mixing, and will continue to get better. Thanks for stopping by! :)

Hi Wayne :)
thank you much much for the words .
i don't know much about differences of metal and rock
i thought this is rock because metal is faster and wilder toward this for me .
but as i see some people like you have called this Metal.
so i'm going to change the genre and put it in metal ....
thank you much much again.
Elena :)

Thanks Wayne. I really enjoy trying to use music alone as a way to convey thought or emotion. I am glad you were able to see that in this song. Many thanks.

Ah, yes. Fender Squiers. Bought a lefty for my lefty wife and the thing sits in my music room and stares at me. Sad, really.

My problem with the Squier(besides being a right handed individual), is how light a touch is required. Being a bass player, I'm used to squeezing the shit out of the strings. Do it with the Squier and it all gets a bit "wonkey". I tuned several times and deleted several goes on guitar because of squeezing it sharp.

Hey, there's a band name.

Squeezin It Sharp

Take care

Evan

Thanks Wayne! I agree with you this could really be used in a commercial or a film, which was my exact intentions for this track.

Thanks for stopping by, have a good one :)

Wayne dear , first of all many thnx for attention & I really hope Mike to read your nice analysis about him & totally we(me,U&the; others who have commented)can make Mike feel good
& know he is not forgotten (althoughT he doesn't need my or our supporT-but friendship is the same we're trying to do I think).

Hey buddy, thanks for listening and commenting! I appreciate the compliments on the singing, means a lot to me! Interesting that you you found it quirky and fun... that's part of what I like about industrial stuff, it's open to interpretation. I've got more ideas, so there will be more to come! Thanks for Dl'ing! Hope all is well!

Hey Wayne

Thank you for the feedback and the review, must say did enjoy doing this one, while taking a short break from trance, currently working on a acoustic type of rock track, it is more laid back then this one, more like a chill out track, plus also start a few different styles...Thought working with vocals would be a bit hard but found them fairly straight forward, suppose if you have the right vocals makes it easier...Thank for the fav too mate...Peace n Respect...Mosaic....Listening to your piece I reviewed other day...Still stand by what I said about it being my fav of yours...Excellent track....

Thanks allot, Wayne. Nothing beats the original, so didn't want to try to duplicate it, so with the help of Franco, it turned out a bit jazzier.

Sorry it's a bit high for you. Would have liked to have you aboard. Usually vocal requests are unsuccessful, so doubt we'll get any takers.

Cheers,
Scott

Never been a DJ. Used to hang around with a lot of them in my 20's but i was always much more interested in creating the tracks.
I guess i should take it up really as all i seem to do these days is muck about with loops.
I did get those synths running in the end and they're really bloody good (But i only used one right at the end of this track, the rest was all loops and one shots)
Yeah, i should upload some loops really. I did plenty as Nick Q but FreeRadical has so far contributed a grand total of zero.
I might even make some right now.
Cheers for dropping in.

Greetings. Very laid back blues and first proper deep shuffle blues I've done.

Not really that many effects. Not sure if you mean on guitar. Mostly just delay, reverb, a little distortion - nothing unusual.

Not sure who Godfathers are. A band, I guess.

My bass is a Vintage 5-string (can't remember the model) though I rarely play it so I'm not very good anymore. Used to be much better in teen years when that's mostly all I played. Little practice these days means no stamina in left or right hand and picking fingers get blisters so easily.

But there's some nice bas guitar in this track.

Main guitar is still the first I ever bought (in 1996) and it's small and light and comfortable and cheap. It's the Epiphone Les Paul Special II (Vintage Sunburst). I also use a Variax but don't like it much and find it hard to play but it still pops up in my tracks.

Main resonator is the Ozark 3515bte and other one (that I don't like) is a Republic Resolian Steel Antique Brass.

You confused me by saying you enjoyed the resonator on here as there is none! The splashes you heard must be the sitar bits during the second half solo. Can't think what else you could mistake for resonator. I almost always say I track description if its in the track.

I do my best to feel the music and play to the groove rather than just widdle about all over the place. This is a wonderful groove for laidback playing and even more so in the later parts (that you haven't heard) when it appears to pick up pace and get more insistent.

I could do blues playing over this type of groove all day. Comes very naturally.

I hope you noticed that the drums are mostly just the EZ Americana kit. If not, you will now!

Good to hear you want to hear more. These 4 mins are really just an intro..

Hi Wayne and thx a lot for your warm review on that humble cover.
I discovered Woodkid recently (they're French :p) and was so moved by their video clip that I tried the song.

"Today I will tell you the story of a man who drowned in the cold waters of the ocean after losing the one he loved. This is the story of a man who died twice." is the translation of the priest's words in Russian.

There are songs that become unforgettable and will always convey a special feeling or memory.

Although awkward, I put a lot of heart in that cover and I'm very glad you liked it, Wayne.
Merci for your time and attention,
Peace

Thanks for listenning my songs!

Thanks Wayne,
every Time i listen to this Track it´s getting a little better. For me ,I think ,i recover a new (old)Passion making Rockmusic. As i was a Man Age 20, I played Heavy Metal Guitar in a Trash Metal Band,those Times were gone, but the Spirit of wicked Guitars and the Sound of evil Power is not a Desease,its inherent and awaits a coming out like a wild Animal.
Nice to know that you like it.

Thank you so much!

Thank you for being the first to listen! I always appreciate your reviews! I didn't even think about cinematic, I guess you have a point there. The psychogenic part was kind of funny, as the word just popped into my head, I didn't remember where I had heard it before, but I looked it up and it seemed to fit... something which is manifested by the mind, and not physiological. The sammich is between me and Spivkurl...heh. Interesting that you hear industrial with this, I guess I just can't avoid industrial ha ha. Thanks again my friend!

That's not a shabby idea at all, thanks for the input! Glad you enjoyed it as well. Thank you for the great loops ha-Charlene

Thanks man. I'm actually really p***ed off because i've updated this track but for some reason the site wont let me replace this version.
Never had this problem before but anyway thanks as always for listening Wayne.

Yo. I'm a big fan of Stewart Copeland, but mostly for his playing in The Police (great band). I'm aware of his TV and film and other work but haven't heard much of it.

I'm surprised by the comparison as I didn't think he played this loud or with as much double kick. Or with blastbeats.

Killer drumming in this is mostly thanks to Superior Drummer and the excellent kits and great performance MIDI files. My skill is in arranging those drum parts and layering them and choosing kits and when playing moves from one to the next to provide the drum variety I like to have in most, if not all, of my tracks.

I'm a good and slightly unusual guitarist but only add the 'freekin' good' through careful editing together of the best takes in my loop recording guitar jam sessions.

See my reply to Extraball for more details on my guitar cheating. Not as good a player as I sound on record!

"goes good so close to earth day and all"

That's odd. Not sure what this might have to do with that environmental protection celebration day. But cool if it trips you out. Maybe 'psychedelic grunge' is the best simple genre name for this.

Yes, slide resonator guitar is kind of my speciality and it features a lot on my many tracks. I'll play it over metal, blues, electro, funk, whatever. Lots of shorter touches of it here to provide unusual variety (clean guitar sounds over heavy ones is odd) but no proper solo. There isn't a proper solo in this - it's just riff, riff and strange textures all the way.

Lots of slide in my track Debt Black Hole, which is a favourite of yours.

My greatest chillout blues slide resonator track:
