Thanks so much Steven, always good to see you!!

great to see you around my friend, just vocal layers different fx on each multilayered volume stages 10% softclip vfx envolope and automation got them soundin good, got two raps lined up next

Thank you, Steve. I appreciate it. That is definitely one thing we've both enjoyed from each other. The dark underbelly of whatever we choose to do musically.
I think the early 80s were a pivotal point for a lot of things. But, as far as metal goes, absolutely. I know at this point, it's almost cliche, but I credit Cliff Burton for a lot of what we have today. It was his influence on James and the boys that brought out the music we got from them. In turn, they as a band influenced so many others. I mean, there were definitely others that had a huge impact. But, yes, Ride The Lightning specifically is an iconic album. Everything up to ...AJFA was, really. After that, the mainstream kind of caught up to their sound, and grunge was coming in hard. They sort of just started blending in to the background at that point. I'll always have a soft spot for them, but I almost never listen to them anymore. Maybe I should dust off the old vinyls and take them for a spin, huh?
Take care,my friend.

Steven so nice to have you check the track, im gaining in confidence and having the time of my life in music, the girls are brilliant and i still pinch myself at the chances they give me, im believing in myself more too, i ve sent you the link look out for it, there's 20+ now and some really good artist too, we only put it together a couple of weeks ago, it would be nice to have you join, its so easy to use and an absolute breeze to collab its all drag and drop and rapid real time instant messaging function like all the big platforms voice and text channels share pics vid of yourself playing and the guys are sharing other things too, theres lots of goodies too free, its a great side aid to anyone LM is our home this site is for collabs you can host it there but the idea is to encourage collabs then host to LM that is all our place of meeting and we don't want to be seen like were distancing, we aint no way. just making it easy and the results are incredible

Yes, a little greeting from the kitchen LOL. I'm glad you liked the track.
Cheers,
Micky

Hello Steven
Thank you so much for listening to my music and commenting. I am so glad that you share with us these warm feelings and experiences and Ill drink to that!
Best wishes, Anthony

i will definitely hit canada in spring 25, in europe we tell us a story about the mythical growers there in canada, they transformed that plant into trees. yeah, im not really impressed with my compression either. thank you for that, i will work on that. i always mix at -3db and all my inserts are -6. i got a new bus compressor and i went overboard with it. my main problem is, i know theres is a flaw in my mixes, but i cant point exactly . that why i love lm and value your time crucethues. love from a banana

Discord thing is fine bro, i only use it for collabs, i only have the mp3 and my vocal Stems mate it was all done and mastered in the studio in Germany the girls wrote the track and the band played the nusic

Thank you bro I appreciate you taking the time to listen.

Thank you :D Yes it is the saddest isnt it lol. Not everyone can hit those D notes well though and especially the B flats. So im more than feeling to transpose it to fit the vocalist. I'd do it myself but i feel like this track needs a females voice in my opinion and also in its current state its a bit outside my natural range.

Hey Steven, thanks mate - that's my improv guitar lead (that a friend thought was harmonica) that you are referring too - I was happy with that - thanks for the warm comment

thankyou Steven, its great to see you around, in your breaks from the loop, lots of talented artists and producers have linked with me, guided me taught me, i have a lot of work as their vocalist in my profiles, just like you Doc' you seen something raw 4 years ago maybe, its now starting to show, this is a perfect example of what you can achieve, if you try. all the work is studio produced in Devon and Germany, try this one Manuela and the girls asked me to collaborate, its why i done this for Manuela too, and the fact we've built a good friendship. thanks again, your another of my closest mate, you know the meaning of friends when you need 'em

Thanks for the high praise, Steve! You really were the impetus for the track. Would have been very disappointing if you hated it! :)

I will check out the new artist you referenced. You must spend a reasonable amount of time listening, not just making music. You seem to know about a lot more contemporary artists in a lot more genres. I probably should do more listening as well, although it's great to have your guidance.

Thank you for the nice feedback! Yes Tracktion works quite well for me, relatively "light" on my old computer resources compared to other ones I tried

Steve: thanks so much for connecting me with the music of Chicane. You are right, I really do like Trance a lot, but I really only have a superficial knowledge about it, frankly. Had never heard of Chicane or the track, Saltwater. Just spend a couple of hours learning about him and listening to his music. Definitely my kind of music for sure. Is (almost) inspiring me to try once again to make a Trance track worth listening to.

Hi, many thanks for the feedback and suggestions.
