This is (I think) is the best vocal performance I've heard from you - what a job on that bridge - and damn everything about it is so excellent, great start and overall songwriting, amazing guitars, superb production and mix, sweet lyric. Played it three times in a row : )
Wow, that's so nice! Thank you! Yeah I went in three years from "Oh god my voice is horrendous let's not sing" via "well, let's try" to "actually, that wasn't bad". I'll never be Jose Carreras, but at least it's not that cringe anymore.
You know who is to blame for that? Dave Grohl :) He said we are so poisoned by "America's got next talent runway x-factor" and all those silly programs - Bob Dylan or Mick Jagger or any number of artists would never make it there. Just sing to the best of your abilities and get a tiny bit better every day... and then I tried it :)
Gorgeous work, gentle melodic shimmering and bubbling, nice flute sounds, nice foley and synth leads, gentle ghostly piano - all superb. Spoken word fits the tone really well too and it unfolds compositionally in a very pleasing way
Indie Trap Music Box tumbling beautifully along - this would be a great soundtrack for timelapse city scapes and scenes I reckon. Like the pulsing 808s (I think) and fresh use of the trap drum sounds in combo with the lovely interweaving melodies
Beautiful work and such very nice depth and space in this mix, an aural pleasure - it's lively as much as ambient and is quite hypnotic and yeah CC is a master when it comes to naming the genre (alt) trip hop. Gotta love an (alt). And Im looking forward to Manu being a better muso than you ; ) ; )
70s were such an influential era for me..I love Blondie, Kate Bush, and Lene Lovich, Toyah, etc and saw them all live. Lyrics just flow from life experience, so I guess they hit a chord, Thank you so much for feeding back.
Bagpipes...what a good idea. Through your comment I had the opportunity to learn about square dancers and this is another good thing about this multi cultural community. Thanks so much for listening and commenting.
My best regards, Anthony.
Very nice work Morash - know its weird but for some reason I started to think about an old album 'modern sounds of country and western vol 2 - 1962 - Ray Charles' ... one side of that album has the most full on string arrangements with country and western tunes and the other side has the most full on brass arrangements with the country and western tunes ... I guess I was thinking how that sort of addition, of strings or brass, would pump this up ... Id go for the brass personally.
At any rate it's got a lovely warm sound and beautiful hip hop groove and pulse as it is.
mixing it up Anthony, good on you, this is bright, brash and deeply funky, it threatens to trip over itself but always keeps its balance despite the pace - very cool
Thank you for listening and commenting on my music. I am really glad you liked it and as you say it is balanced for the listener.
Wish you the best, Anthony.
Hey Michael - these teasers sound beautifully produced and your voice sounds amazing - best wishes for a successful release
btw - I neglected to answer a question you asked when commenting on my track from last week - the vocal was a sample from splice
Sounds really wonderful and yeah there is a kind of 'live' or room quality to sound which is so nice. Love the structure (a kind of slow bluesy funking indie build), and the instrumentation too (that organ and the guitar work) in particular. Vocal is very sweet as always
Cheers mate. Hope you're ticking along OK. Back to the grindstone down here, but a few waves lately to keep me sane, and a pretty inspiring work trip for the last 10 day or so.
Excellent song writing, played with joyful finesse and a beautiful vocal performance - Im sure its not just my imagination but that you are very consistently getting even better and better . Talent plus persistence equals excellence hey
gotta love a song with a complete narrative - theres a lovely gentle huskiness to your voice here and an equally lovely depth to the sound - great compositional structure too - that rhodes sure is classy too - I might grab that one myself : )
Gorgeous - does have somewhat of an old school rnb vibe in some aspects but brought right up to now with that crystal production sound and a touch of jazzy funk. Really beautiful work on the keys and amazing vocals and vocal harmonies. Very sweet vibraphone type sounds in there too. Wonderful
Epic track - beautiful composition and beautifully played and produced and very fine job with the lyric and vocal too. Love the guitar work especially - hope your friend manages to find a through.
Hello Nonube
Thank you so much for visiting and listening to this track. It has been a great guitar loop I had to work with, and I tried to keep all the dark (in this case the "cinematic") elements adding with the bass strings mainly some coloring, I guess what you perceive as evocative. Being on the trap side.... I hope the drum track supported this purpose.
It is a teamwork and I just hope I have respected the intentions of this excellent guitarist (the loop is a composition on its own).
My best regards, Anthony.
