on Easy take by FrenchKid18
StÃÂphane - remains a devastating track, the enhancements on the vox really serve the lyrics as well as the understated but smoldering music - here's to better roles, better souls, my friend

on Bayou by CmsProductions
really digging yr gtr parts and sounds from them here - i guess the rythm section is intentionally droning mecha but it drags a great guitar song down - truly hope you keep playing with this track.

on Cairo by jfw
this track has some very interesting mirage-like qualities - it has an arid, desert feel even tho every second is full of events - it seems like the gtr parts are 10 feet tall when they really only last under 30 seconds - and i must add the belew 'references' are right on - the riddle of the sands?
Safe journeys, Jamie

Thanks for the listen Michael - I'm glad you liked it! It's no secret that I like the work of guys like Belew/Fripp etc (just look at my avatar) and over the years I have made a study of the way they play. I just couldn't resist playing a little "Elephantosity" on this track - it just seemed to fit!

Cheers, Jamie.

on SongOfDepths by danbo
very pastoral and intriguing - voices and basses work really well with a nice melting quality - only the harmonica is jarring - i think the juxtaposition is right on but could use some cutting or other technique/z to enhance the flow
a comment from the peanut gallery - i always respect your musicality
danbo
danbo replied Unknown
Thanks for the review. I love the voices. I'm working on a subject today.
Yes, I've to look at the harmonica, but at it's level. I'll look and listen many times to adjust the tempo. Concerning the jarring sound, I think it's right, but if I substract the bass, it's correct. In fact, it's rather the bass level I have to modify, certainly 1/4 tone up or down.
Hey, you've a good listening !
Thanks for this !

on Always Wondered by Gordw
Hello Gord - it is always so good to see you, man. I always find some thing strong and centered in your music even when feeling the most forlorn. And i'm always subliminally singing along with the lyrics - you got strange zen kareoke powers, i feel lucky to sing along - thanks, friend

Gordw replied Unknown
Thanks Michael, I appreciate your kind review. I am glad you take the time to read/sing my lyrics with the music. I hope to have the vocals done on all my tracks in time. Take Care my friend.

on LookingAtYou by danbo
can't help it - another fav! don't know how intentional it is but some of these transitions just trigger the happy part of my very nervous system.
for this listener a very engaging dialectic between the selector and the selected.
danbo
danbo replied Unknown
I agree with you. What is important for me in music holds in 2 points:
1) Pacling the pauses or silences at the right moment
2) To be able to break the music and to drive an other piece with a minimum of bad effects.
Thank you for replying and listening.

on Unfinished business by jjy
it's so strange that when you feel about as beat as a person can possibly be you find a groove that matches that sadness but lifts you up and makes you keep going at the same time - this is a much appreciated track

on Marshmallow eater ft Wayne by FrenchKid18
StÃÂphane - great gtr/beat music providing contrast to the deadpan vocal delivery - i do think a faster tempo and/or stickier drums would really work with this
FrenchKid18

Thanks for the review and opinion,Michael.
Gonna try it with faster tempo

on Ally Sally Wang by danbo
this is warm and comedic / almost slapstick to these ears. it is a contrast to a track of yours i recently characterized as 'cold' and probably the better term to have used then would be konstructivist. i think the contrast is that here there is a 'character' to follow (the clav) that provides comment and counterpoint. This would have worked for me even without the the wonderful description, but dreaming of the unattainable girl amps it up.
i really appreciate the many musical facets your tracks offer!

danbo replied Unknown
Thanks a lot Michael_Strokes or listeneing
Not obvious to place an atmosphere (it takes a time), and to place a suggestion by the lead guitar and the wind instruments.
Yes, I recognize that it's different from my other productions.
But, here, I am not really satisfaid by the result, 1) because the sound rendering is not really beautiful, I have difficulties to ste the tones, 2) because I wanted to compose a line with with Yamaha keyboard, but I have connection problem with my computer. It 'll be for a next moment.
Thanks much
