I wish you all the best in promoting the album; you deserve it.
And every time you explain the process you used for the vocals, guitars, etc., I'm amazed. Now I understand why you've taken so long to create this album, but the result is wonderful.
I hope that one day your work will be released physically, the old-fashioned way, on vinyl or CD, so I can buy it and have it on my shelf, next to Pink Floyd, AC/DC, Metallica, Queen, Dire Strait, etc. I'm also sure that the album cover and interior would be incredible, worthy of your lyrics.
Best of luck with this project, and thank you for the detailed explanations you give me.
Regards, Juan Carlos
I really enjoyed it!
A great rhythm, very defined instruments, and a fantastic overall composition. It had me moving the whole time I was listening to it, haha.
Congratulations, great job!
Noooooo, don't stop making jazz!
This is really good.
You have to have a special gift to make these compositions. That sax, the bass rhythm, the piano, and the precision are incredible. The vocals at the end were the icing on the cake, beautiful.
It's the work of true professional artists.
Congratulations! I really enjoyed listening to it.
Best regards, Juan Carlos
Greetings Juan. Ok I'll keep the Jazz moving lol! Your stop, listen and compliments are appreciated. It's great you found everything in order to the degree this listen was a enjoyable one.
Brilliant work, dark atmosphere it creates for the story.
Before, I enjoyed your music and your voices, but now, being able to read what you write is on another level. It happened to me again, like the other day: if I close my eyes, I can see the dark city, the dangerous alleyways, the gloomy atmosphere, and the nocturnal vices. All with the set design and atmosphere, as I told you the other day, of the movie "Sin City."
From 1:45 onwards, I got goosebumps. I liked the background voice that comes in at 2:50; it was like wailing from a dark alley. And from 3:00 onwards, the two voices narrating seemed sublime to me. As always, incredible guitars and percussion.
You are becoming my go-to Soul Rock band.
Congratulations on the excellent work you all do, the whole band.
Best regards, Juan Carlos
Well, my friend Juan Carlos, thank you feels too small for your comments and for the strength they give us. Right now Im at my advertiser friends place, working a bit on the album promotion.
Let me tell you a few things about this track. First of all, the vocals were recorded in one take. We didnt dare record them again. Three songs on the album were recorded that way, and this is one of them. It took a lot of work to shape the vocals into something we could fully support musically without changing the essence of the song itself.
We wanted exactly what you described: something dark, cinematic, and immersive, so the listener could actually feel the scene. Using Melodyne and the Eventide Quadravox, I worked on correcting the vocal imperfections and harmonies. The secondary vocals especially the female spoken part are completely natural, not a plugin. We recorded many guitar layers, kept only a few, and then filled the atmosphere carefully with some effects.
The result turned out even better than we expected. We really loved the noir atmosphere it created and yes, it does feel a bit like a scene from Sin City. It was a very difficult track to perform, and all of us were extremely satisfied with the final result.
Once again, thank you. Soon youll have the full album, so you can listen to it in high quality whenever you want.
Take care, my friend.
With appreciation,
Chris & LINEAR FADE
Thanks Juan..... lol,, Tough tough voice in 400- 800 Hz registers then jumps 3-8K. piles of multiple eq's and passes,,,,,,, still not completely satisfied.
Ill get to listening too you soon..... Beautiful marking on your cat !!!
I loved it!
A danceable aesthetic, but with percussion that could easily be rock and a frenetic rhythm from beginning to end. The work and dedication are evident.
Best regards, Juan Carlos
Listening to your compositions is always like being in a grand ballroom, watching the band play live. The sound quality is so real, so present.
Congratulations.
Best regards, Juan Carlos
I am glad you like it Juan !! What you say gives me great joy because even though my tools are outdated, I try very hard to approach naturalness (I always remember how much negative reviews I received in a midi contest because I had fixed velocities and/or other values in some notes... In fact, some strict reviewers taught me to be very careful with the use of midi tools. Thank you very much for your so encouraging and kind comment !! Cheerssssss !!
Another great section, and the sound is excellentcrisp and clear.
You should make better use of it; I'm really looking forward to hearing the full songs, haha.
Congratulations!
Juan Carlos
As soon as I heard the first 15 seconds, I said: This is promising!
I loved it. A great track and the perfect voice for this genreis that you?
The only thing is, although I'm far from a sound expert, quite the opposite, I'm learning, but the volume seemed a little distorted to me. But don't listen to me and listen to the great experts we have here.
I've heard other songs of yours and this is the one I liked the most. Congratulations, great job.
Juan Carlos
Right now, AI is all the rage, but it will never replace a real musician. It's too perfect, and that's tiring, besides the fact that it has no merit. For example, in the third song I created, I used it to adapt the lyrics I had in mind into English (I don't speak English, and I'm embarrassed about it) and to create the vocals so I wouldn't have to use someone else's lyrics and voice, although I would have loved for someone from this community with incredible voices to sing it (I was too embarrassed to ask). I think that just as the invention of the camera didn't kill off painters, despite its image perfection, it's now just a matter of time before people demand originality and the work of a real creator, a true musician, and not a program that makes songs in a minute.
Let's have hope. Best regards, Juan Carlos
A great combination. I like the rhythm you've created and the sounds you've used to accompany the vocals. I don't know why, call me crazy, but listening to it reminded me of Britney Spears' song "Toxic," haha.
Good job.
Your music takes me back to the '80s. And the sound quality is fantastic. You should definitely release full tracks, and who knows, maybe someone here could collaborate with you on some lyricsthat would be amazing! I'd love to hear the result.
Great work.
Best regards, Juan Carlos
Thanks, Juan, for the kind words. I feel like it's already too late, though. AI takes no prisoners :) In time, it will produce every genre of music, and we won't even be able to distinguish it from human-made compositionsif that's even possible today... Over time, there will be fewer and fewer of ushomegrown musicians. We'll just be creating 'for the drawer'for ourselves.
Hi Chris!
Impeccable as always. If I like one song, I like the next one even more. The pacing you use to tell the story is perfect, the vocal emphasis at certain moments, along with the intensity of the guitar and drums at key points in the storyI don't know what else to say about your music. You should be a breakthrough artist at the Grammys, haha. And thanks for including the lyrics; the experience is completely different.
For example, last night when I was listening to "Rooms Without Echoes" and reading the story at the same time, I was imagining the music video in the style of that Bruce Willis movie "Sin City"black and white, comic book style, creating the atmosphere of that film to tell your urban story.
Congratulations!
Best regards, Juan Carlos
Juan Carlos, I have no further words to thank you on behalf of all of us. Thank you also personally. It is a great satisfaction, especially coming from artists like you, to receive such positive feedback. Once again, warm greetings and many thanks.
As you can see, Ive started uploading the tracks gradually with the lyrics, as you requested.
A hug from us,
Chris and LINEAR FADE BAND.
