Hey Michael - I dont know if you've tweaked the reverb on this one but it doesnt bother me as it is, I think it's a gorgeous track - well done. (btw I like the blackhole reverb plugin from eventide - loads of really interesting options with their presets and lots of things to tweak)
: )
Oh Yeah - builds really nicely and for sure has a cinematic scope to it with cross rhythms and melodies and new elements interweaving to create a real sense of drama and movement. Seamless transitions and gorgeous sound production as usual.
Now that's what Im talking about with your beautiful playing and arrangements - woo hoo - very smooth and classic - once again really showcasing an absolutely gorgeous vocal performance. Love it : )
Nice work - love the big doof sub/ 808 sound that comes in over the sweet melody and the beats are spot on - castanets never sounded this cool! : ).
Great sounding production with a lovely arrangement too one that really holds interest across the track.
Ha yeah - epic indeed - I was actually thinking of 2001 a space odyssey listening that start but then you settle into some very serene melodic place that had me thinking of Kansas (the band not the home of Dorothy) especially once that great vocal kicked in. Has a little of a rock opera feel about it and that might be a criticism (in my book at least ) if it wasn't so well done. Nice mix too. Congratulations : )
Lol I'm not sure how one could sound like Kansas the state, I'm imaging a lot of wind and twangy guitar. Anyway, thanks so much. I'm an Opera singer by training but rock has since surpassed it as my favorite genre. So... I suppose Rock Opera is kind of inevitable.
very cool track - not quite the same quality and nuance with the sound production but damn fine tune and nicely constructed, damn fine legacy you have - seems like this leopard has always had great spots : )
Nice work - really well crafted song and the guitar work is a standout - yes sounding somewhere between santana and clapton (but leaning a little more to carlos) but very nice - all the other elements sound very nice too to me also(but Im only listening on the laptop speakers so hard to hear the real quality of the mix and production sound. What I can hear though is a fantastic song and great playing : )
Beautiful work my friend - lilting gentle beats and a warm pulse with soft melodic elements woven in and just a little bit triumphant and nostalgic sounding which is all absolutely fitting : )
What a lot of fun - love the balance of elements, psychedelic, prog, funk, and 'quirk', great synth sounds and as commented the drums are masterful - to my ears this gives a nod to zappa, king crimson and genesis or yes but charts it's own place in that landscape : )
Nice stereo panning, great beats/ rhythms with and I like swirling and surging bassline too. Also a cool vox with some nice flourishes with the keys / synths adding variety and maintaining interest - well done : )
YEAH YEAH YEAH - at the start Im thinking it sounds like James Brown meet War and made some lounge music (with quincy jones and frank Z producing) then it settles even more into a beautiful soulful funk with the gorgeous female vox coming in with the other voice - yeah indeed.
It's been a while,
I want to get back in the
swing of things here on LM.
Your comments are a sign that
I must be headed in the right direction.
I appreciate you stopping by and giving the track a listen
and for your colorful and encouraging comments.
PEACE...
not just warm - smoking hot - creeping deep beats and slow turning melodic elements with a great vocal performance and rap. Lingers in the memory which is nearly always a good sign too : )
Oooh, both good ideas, thank you! I will be working on the mix with a guy I know (paid) because I feel it's one of the (many) things holding me back - and it's especially apparent in this song. So I'll also look at that plugin, especially after I hopefully understand it a bit better. Great tip.
The choir is maybe an even better tip. The "sit with me in the quiet" would be absolute goosebumps when done with a choir. Now - I don't actually have a choir at home, but I can write harmonies. I might be able to sing some of it, and you know, maybe I can actually find a choir that would like to sing it :D or else there might be another plugin helping me on that.
Thanks so much for listening and giving ideas! Much love buddy!
Nice work - does remind me of the theme for a show - but that's not a criticism - it's somewhat captivating, a little bit of an earworm and gives a sense of urgency and movement, nice depth to the sound and nice production too. Never entirely in love with trap type beats as they seem so overused but they work well here : )
Gorgeous dreamy start (reminding me a little of the microphones in tone and mood ... I guess horseshead reminds me of elvrum headless horseman track) but here Im drifting in a tone cathedral ... the beat of the drum loop promises something but it seems I was dreaming and Ive woken now, or was I awake and now fallen vert deeply asleep, either way I want to go back to where I was but cant seem to remember where I was.
Great stuff - It would be nice to build on this and twist, deconstruct and reprise the theme and elements. Aspirational indeed.
Ian! You have made me aware of influences i don’t always pick up on, and you hit it every time. So now along with animal co i gotta get reacquainted with mics!
Thanks for seeing more potential in this. I had a much longer version but lost the thread. This track is the salvaged parts. You do make me think it’s one to revisit, i sincerely appreciate that. Good to see you, man!
