Hi Wayne,
Thanks for this new gem. The song is very good, but what really stroke me is the clarity and the definition you have in your mix: outstanding.
Ciao, Domenico
PS: maybe you could also add a couple of verses... you know that I like how you sing and your voice would perfectly fit on this one :-)
Thanks Domenico! Still lots of learning to do with Ableton but I am finally getting happier with my mixes. I wasn't planning to sing on it but thanks for the nice words of encouragement!
I have to agree to Scott: great track!
Lot of "things" going on, good sax, intriguing guitar.
I really enjoyed it and I am marking it as a favorite to hear it later (since I cannot download...)
Thanks!
Ciao, Domenico
Good song.
I like your choice of sounds and melodies, interesting combination of "joyful" parts with some darker tones (eg. the glockenspiel mixed with the darker strings and the "hip-hop" drums)
The melodies bring me back to the early 80s: they could have been used in a soundtrack for a Dario Argento movie (definitely In Topic!)
On the mix side, very good job. To my taste, only the hi-hat sounds a bit "apart" from the rest of the drumkit.
That said, thanks for the good time your song gave me (I have already listened it twice!)
Ciao, Domenico
Hi Carole,
Thanks for the nice gift... a new song for your wonderful voice.
And I love it!
Of course there is room for improvement, the sound of the instruments should be refined (have you changed the tempo of the guitar?) and maybe some passages could be changed a bit, but this is another beautiful song. Period.
You are a very talented girl, but you already knew it :-)
Hi My dear friend :D
There's not room for improvement, there's a canyon in which I got lost, haha . Yes, the original tempos of Ferryterry's guitars were 140 and 105 ; and you're right, it should have been more varied ( shameful smile ) .
Thx a lot for your critical approach, Domenico . I do appreciate your pieces of advice and careful listening .
Hope you're fine,
Un abbraccio in return,
Carole
Very good. The quality of the sounds in this track is really high. Well done.
Maybe it is a bit long, but in my case I enjoyed it as it is.
Ciao, Domenico
Thank you for the nice comments on my track Domenico, glad you enjoyed it. Yes the track is a little long as are some of my other tracks, I get new ideas and keep putting more in and end up with some very long tracks.
Thanks again,
Truegrit
Interesting experiment. The chord progression is "standard" but it is well played and the sound comes out surprisingly good (I am assuming you used the built-in microphone of your android device).
As Ed already pointed out, some clips here and there, but I am sure that "slicing" out the clipping parts it should still be possible to extract the loops you need to make a song out of this recording.
I hope you'll find someone to sing on it.
Ciao, Domenico
Yep! Straight through the Droid's mic. The owner recently downgraded the recording quality because initially I was getting some awesome recordings. Of course, that was natural unamplified sounds. It's quiye possible the fidelity of the amp's speaker was producing overtones that the Droid couldn't handle. "LiveN'Learn!" I was ticked when I listened to what I got. I'll try runnig it through some filters to see what I can get out of it. Some mid and high pass filters should do the trick. Anyways... Good thoughts and thanks. :)
Good song. No doubt! Good work, well done!
The "caribbean" feeling is there and I really like how all the instruments have been mixed. Good touch.
Only thing that can be improved: the bass sound on the "high notes" is a bit too "keyboard like", but only in few spots (eg. at 0:34)
But I am now really just picking the smallest details on a perfect song.
I really enjoyed it!
Thanks!
Ciao, Domenico
aaah..yuupp...you are right . bass is played by my Korg Pa 80 (keyboard) and not sound too loud coz i don't like it's sound too much .this was actually made by me and my husband and many of my female friends , but usually we girls neither play bass .thank you very much for comment .it's good to hear from you Domenico .

Hi Behnam,
I take the chance to send you my greetings. Hope everything is well man!
And at the same time I want to say thank you for sharing your "trials" with us: even if the recording quality is not the best, the music is very moving and deep. And that's what matters!
Often we are are after the perfect sound and we forget about the importance of the message.
I like the comment from SeriouslyJoking: it's like if the player is desperately trying to tell us something... something very important to him. And I think this applies to a lot of your music.
how are U my good friend ? wish all is well there out of this vacuumed for U .Domenico I should say thnak U for your worthy attention to my trials . regarding quality of piano for sure I'm quite agree with U and U know thos old softwares and programs like final 2004 and the reason why quality is not good as I have written in description below track too .about ''SJ''as U know our good colleague , I should say I've always enjoyed her beautifull underestanding & worthy personality .and I'm agrree this comment it was one of the most beautifull comments I had seen from her below my trials .and in the end I just should say U know my greatest respects and appreciations about your presence and comment so I won't repeat them . take care & the rest in mail.___Behnam
Great Zappo.
Love this deep bass sound: simple riff but very effective.
The drum sound change around 2:15 "opens up" the song a lot. Well done!
How not to love your work? Respect man!
Hi SJ,
We have a good song here.
I really like the piano part.
I think you still have to figure out how to mix it perfectly with the voice, but please do not remove it: I would rather chop-out the vocal instead!
Do not touch that piano!
I simply love it.
Ciao, Domenico
On no not the vocal!!
Haha - well I'm going to have to think about that. The vocal is of a very poor quality - not the vocalist and the singning but the the sample itself so it's hard to make it sound good in the mix. Or hard to me to do so, anyway.
Thanks for the feedback, Domenico!
Trying to continue working on this shortly.
Hi Paulo, we have tons of good ideas here!
First, I basically agree with the other two comments: given the "speed" of the song, maybe having a more distorted guitar would be better.
I like the initial riff: it makes you shake your head... good!
Maybe here you could work on getting a "tighter" sound (not sure how though, maybe increasing a bit the volume of the bass, which could give some definition to the sound... just wild guesses).
The solo is good: good sound and interesting melodies.
Well done!
Looking forward to seenig this song with a vocal part!
Ciao, Domenico
Wow guys! I am really getting spoiled: you two are creating a lot of awesome songs.
And this time the voice of Bonnie finds a perfect environment: a smooth and jazzy tune for her warm voice. Wonderful!
Only one comment from my side: I may have preferred a version without the brass-section. The atmosphere you build is really warm and in my eyes I picture more a small ensemble playing on a stage. But this is really a minor thing, the song is awesome. Period!
Loved & downloaded.
Thanks again for your wonderful music!
Ciao, Domenico
PS: I didn't mention it explicitly, but once more I am impressed by the perfection of the rhythm section, drums and guitar.
Good track metaled.
Good riffs, dark voice (not my preferred tone but fits perfectly the song) good guitar sound.
Maybe in some points the bass could be a bit more present (IMHO... and I am a bass player, so I may be biased).
Overall, a very good metal song!
Keep the good work: we need more of them!
Ciao, Domenico
Good song man.
Nice mellow piano.
Very interesting voice: I like the way you sing, very intense.
Good lyrics as well (I didn't get 100% the end, but I am not a native speaker, so this may be my fault).
I really enjoyed your song SikStyle.
Good work!
Ciao, Domenico
House music is not really my cup of tea, but I always respect good productions.
I think this song has all of the right elements to become a hit. Good work.
Hope you'll find the singer it deserves.
Ciao, Domenico
PS: actually I am glad we have the genre tag because I can not tell the difference between dance, house, electro ... I know, I am getting old man :-)
Wow! I have no words... this is really good!
Loved the bass part, the drums are very detailed, the solos are all well played and arranged with very good taste.
Standing ovation for Zappo!
Thanks for your music man!
Ciao, Domenico
I liked the song. We have some of The Finest vocal lines here. Really good.
And the lyrics are great: the Final image of someone's secrets kept hidden and warm is very soft and sweet.
Thanks for sharing your Talent with Us.
