Funk in my lungs and in my ears, too. What a good start to the new year lol. This one reminds me of some stuff I heard live a few years ago, the group was an ensemble and they had someone playing a mandolin. Honestly, where I live, youd be highly successful on the Fri-Sat night venue scene (Ive thought about that before, too) Alot of your work just makes me wanna grab a beer and smile, and take it all in. And I dont even drink lol. Its just very endearing. U have what my football coach called "intangibles" - hopefully u understand wat i mean. Good work man.

Well, Idk how well known it is, But Im 50% pure US Southerner, so certain things appeal to me and I have no choice in the matter lol. This type of thing is one of them. I was reminded of some shows I went to as a teenager, where i made some of my favorite memories. I was grinning like a fool, and since i had headphones on, there wasnt much context so everyone around me was laughing at me lol. Well done on capturing that spirit man.

The title and description kept making me laugh tho lol, long before i could get anywhere in it lol

I can hear some of the first stuff i ever heard from u here, but theres some other elements here, too - youve grown as an artist, and so ur like a painter or craftsman who begins to add flourishes that are recognizable as their work. It might be a work in progress, but its further along than some would think. I always enjoy hearing wat youve been up to.

Music is meant to entertain just as much as anything else, though Im most definitely not always entertained. lol. U guys have the gift to be able to entertain, and also reach the listener because your songs have heart as well as soul. Sometimes there are hidden truths to the lyrics, other times the meaning is plain to hear. And you take risks, more so because u follow ur heart, and so it pays off. I was entertained to say the least, But the point of the song was not lost on me. Im a broken record by now lol, but ill say it anyway - well done. - Aaron

I understand the guitarist's journey well, brother. I recieved my first REALLY NICE guitar at a time when i felt like noone could possibly understand or reach me, and I was just so burdened with the entire world's problems - Yes, i speak of the terrible teens lol. But many a night (and many a beer, many a joint and/or the occasional LSD hit also lol) i spent in a chair next to the firepit, with that guitar glued to my hands, going off on deeply personal journeys that led me to better understanding of myself - sometimes for 12, 15 even 24 hours straight, playing until i had to tape my fingers back together. I feel lucky to know a musician who can recreate that feeling for me, even luckier to know that this community has TWO artists who can do that for me, and yes you are 50% of them. I wish I could bring my trusty yamaha acoustic and come sit with u and join u on a few of these sojourns, i truly do man.

Im always there for one of your songs, dude, no debate there. This one has healing properties man, id swear it does. ive been dragging the last few hours, im exhausted from getting over the flu. but i feel like Ive gotten a second wind, maybe even inspired a bit. its been awhile since ive used elements similar to what tends to come from your work... i use the word work losely, I imagine its more like a short journey for u when u sit down with a guitar, and so a journey for the listener as well. as always, well done. - Aaron

I can certainly understand the thought and intention of a song like this, Ive
done my fair share of them. My old lady cant handle it if i go too long without composing something for here these days, and this has given me an idea for that. Thank u for that, and well done, as well.

When someone with alot of raw talent eventually finds their groove, the sweet spot, so to speak, of their musical ability, and then branches out in all directions from there, their versatility becomes hard to match. Its easy to forget that Any dude could bang on a guitar all day long and not make a single note that commands any attention. That is why, for me, listening to the music you are making now leaves me in a bit of awe sometimes. One couldnt buy experience or musical personality even if one wanted to, congratulations on putting in the work and achieving results man. Lovely.

"Hey, Google"....."Is Its weird if a person is in love with a song, like actual love?"...."Yyyy....eeess?"

"Oh. Right On, then."

This one took me surprise. The lyrics have a desperate humanity to them, and a strong sense of dignity. Thats honestly a trademark of many of your songs, not just this one. And having a real message at all is something that alot of today's music lacks, and I commend u for holding onto values and beliefs in the face of an increasingly distant and cold world. Im not a stranger to those feelings myself. But Ive been terrified of the metal skeletons from the Terminator movies since I was a kid, so technology such as A.I. disturbs me in a very Need-a-therpist kinda way lol. Im really glad that Ive had the unique journey through music that I have - Ive had my time with performing live, being in a band and havingsome of our songs professionally recorded, My time as a performing DJ, Time as a stage Tech, even played some acoustic sets covering Alice In Chains & STP songs with an incredible singer. Ive had a taste of music life before technology really took over the industry, and I appreciate that more and more everyday. Your song gave me these thoughts, so I thought Id share them with u. Thank u for sharing your Brilliance with us, guys. (and gals, my bad Kay lol)

I love u guys, man. Not only are u both talented and your take on music unique, but u both also know to work with others. And youre exceptionally god friends of mine, and Im proud of watching and being a part of your journeys thus far. I hope u guys know by now that u can count on me to have ur back, and u have each others'. These bonds are important to me, and I couldnt be happier with your efforts here. I think youre rhymes are getting even better, Paul. I told Robin the day that when people are having fun in their music, it truly shows. Bravo, my guys.

Well, This is gonna be the last one of the night for me, Im fighting to hold my eyes open and this is all the lullaby I needed. Its well done, bro. I also have good news - I got an email From Brad (Infms Rad, the one who doing the verse for u) and he told to be expecting that from him today. Ill be in touch soon.

Well, I somehow messed up my reply to your comment on my track, I was meaning to ask u to check out my work with my group, The Monzder Squadd, if u get a chance, I think theres a few surprises there if u find the time. Ill leave that kryptic lol.

Dude! where ya been man? i was just wondering about u the other day. And i def wasnt ready for that level of funk this early in the morning, Made me spill my coffee man lol. U labeled the genre 100% correctly, man. I havent heard anything i didnt like of yours, and this one is standard for u - great.

Well, Jared called that one - The piano called my attention immediately. Its a nice comp. And the acapella almost sounds like it was written specifically for this, and thats hard to find. Well done.

The best artists are always humble, Richard. Your vocals are where u shine, but your are certainly no novice. Much of the stuff that u learn about vocals, such as keys etc, apply to other areas of music, as well. It gives u a head start, so to speak. I attended Vincennes school of Music for a single semester years ago, but I learned alot more about bong hits and beer funnels than anything else lol. I learned more of what i know about music theory on my own as a guitarist and later as a DJ. I feel your past experiences prepared u well for your current endeavors. When it comes to learning, that never stops for any of us, and that applies to every member of this community, myself not the least. And u have the power of conviction on your side , as well - u believe in what youre doing, and that translates into your work. Whenever i comment on something, I try to say the most helpful things i can. And in your case, its usually about important your work is to have here, and how naturally talented you are. That alone is enough to carry some people, but u have more than that. Dont discount yourself. brother. U are skilled at what you do. and I know for sure Im not alone in that belief. This is the LM equivalent to me shaking your hand, my man.

Another one? wow bro, I think u might surpass me on productivity, and Ive rarely leave my desk these last few weeks lol. This one feels like a gear change from what u usually do, not that its a bad thing. Quite the opposite. The Vibe is pure joy - and i dont think anyone could hear this and not be affected by it. When a man truly loves what he does, its plain for all to see. well, in this case, plain for all to hear. Youre a great artist, Richard.

Hey man - One of the members of my group would like to use this for a short hype track, it would be posted to the group's page whenever it was done. I encouraged him to do this, working with other producers' work here in the community is an experience that will only benefit him, and all the other group members. what is the BPM on this one? Its pretty fast, and thats exactly what he wanted today

Out of all the songs we have put together, this is the one that had me the most hyped as we were making it. We all felt the magic in the air, and that magic is still there, getting even more potent, somehow. Im proud of all u guys, but especially u bub. Lets keep the momentum going. Good choice on picking this one to upload, btw. Hopefully we get a few more plays with it. Love ya bub - Aaron

Well this is certainly different man. Id almost put it under cinematic-type, its very visual, and that is one of my favorite things about music. well done.

Right off the bat, gotta say that kick is fire man, really all the drum & perc elements were great, honestly similar to choices I would make were I creating this beat. nice build up of tension at the beginning, works really well - if the track were longer, id even consider doing another build up part way thru, it works that well. I feel some late noughties influence in it, but also some new wave as well. Everything blends well, and Mixing is solid. Really Well done track, man.

Ironic that Jared beat me to the punch here lol, But Im glad to see him expand his horizons a little bit. anyway bro wat in the world has been inspiring u, I like dthe last few things youve put out quite alot, but jeez this one is good. like permanent playlist good bro, u should be proudly showing this one off on Bandcamp or something. Well gd done my guy!- Aaron

Not many out here making this kind of music anymore. I say keep doing wat ur doin and keep it alive, man, laughs or no laughs.

Hello Anthony - I always enjoy your pieces, I really do think much of it would be at home in a video game. From the way ur songs pull on the imagination and emotions. And what could anyone hope to achieve with their music beyond that? Thats the top of the mountain, my friend. I can see the theatrical themes, and yes its very cinematic. I can see Kay's comment, and it is dead on with how this one could be imagined. Well done man.
