dimestop

yes, it's my lyrics and my voice. Thank you i'll include the lyrics right now. Thank you for the advice.

Hey Ladies Man.
How are doing Paul?
No, sorry mate that was just a flying visit mate.
My other work is too good to let go.
However, you never know mate.
Look after yourself.

Thanks for the feedback. Experienced a few mental blocks with this and as such it took far too long to finish. I'm glad it's done with now. Onwards and upwards! Hope 2024 gives you peace and prosperity.

I struggled with this one like you mentioned you did too. I resulted to using a method I don't usually use and that's manually typing my music using my Keyboard on my laptop. That seems to help a ton. I might practice doing that more.

Also, this isn't the large project I hinted towards. I was just taking a break making something I enjoy. I have plans to still get the larger project out but along the way I'll be re-creating some of my old VSTs and update them.

Whats good DIME.

If you do something with this send me a link.

Thanks bro

Jody

hi dimestop ! thx for shared your feedback !!

Thank you, yes, the emotions and feelings that music conveys are probably extremely important

Yeah, this one's grimy as sewer sludge man. Lately I've been making slower paced beats, must be my current vibe. And doing basslines from scratch is my favorite part of putting together a beat...I've listened to some work I did 4-5 years ago, and man, Ive definitely gotten 1000 times better. I'm glad u like my work, Paul, u always do me a solid. I appreciate u, man. -Aaron

Hi Dimestop, and thank you for your comment, your advice is right up there with Manuela's and I really appreciate the help you both have given me. I'll try to rework the track following your recommendations.
As for the voice, it's true it's great, but it's not mine (I wish...)...
Thanks again for your help; Yahwelle.

my g thank you bro

Thank you, no, I won't sing to it, so as not to spoil the guitar)

Aloha Dimestop, thanks for listening. Nope, nothing subtle about it. I try to be positive but sometimes it's hard to find things to like in our society. We'll try to be more cheerful next time!

cheers Paul! i was pretty chuffed at how compact this turned out — it felt like all of side one when i was mixing it. haha just playing that bass over and over i laughed at the length. good to see you amigo

Taking that panning on with the next update as that really took the magic out of the synth

Hi, Paul.

Thanks for the encouraging comments on the track.

I did think that Salve's vocal really made this track something special. I guess that's why I took so long trying to get the "sound" to live up to Salve's vocal.

Many years ago, long before LM, I was in a kind of chat group with musicians from across the world. I admitted to another participant, an accomplished professional French composer named, Philipe Chatillez ("le chat") that I had composed lots of fragments of tracks, but never really completed a full track. He said I should not be afraid of just combining different pieces to create a whole.

I guess that's what Salve and I did with this track except that we actually planned it this way - as a musical progression.

So, probably 30 years after getting the advice, I finally put it into action! Slow learner! :)

Regards,

Eric

Thanks, I've already turned up the vocal volume, but I haven't worked with automation yet)

Can't wait to hear what you're cooking up! Thanks for the listen Paul!

Thanks Paul appreciate it man I really like this one too I'm probably going to use it as the base to a new remix I'm going to do

hiya Paul, yeah it gets cooler once yr outta the sun. hope yr staying well and creating in amongst it all! good to see you brother

appreciate it

Hey Paul - thanks for the warm feedback mate - I'll think this will stay as a little dirge but maybe what Ive learned in making it will influence some future effort : )
