i really apppreciate your attempt , but as i told you it was by far different with what i meant to be composed for my song.
anyway thank you very much again .

Thanks for the feedback. I love Martha Wash's voice, so much soul.

Yo. See my reply to MrWolf regarding bassline, which is the heartbeat of it all. The track only keeps extending cos I found other ways to work that resonator guitar bassline. Must try detuning and recycling more of my guitar playing like that.

Maybe a little like a Dixie jazz funeral though not as funereal - a bit more chilled and beautiful.

Eerie synth same as in Think Big Feel Small (last upload), Knee Deep In The Cosmic Overwhelm and others.

3:52 snare is switch to hip hop kit. That section is partly lifted from Way Beyond Wrong - possibly first track of mine you reviewed. This and that used to be the same track so share lots of instruments.

4:56 is my little dub organ. Also can be heard at 1:19.

5:15 second rock section. Had to bring that guitar playing and accented hat drum groove back as they break up the jazz nicely.

5:50 guitar starting to get jazzier and bluesier.

Yes, quite subtle piano here. Some is played, other little snippets are copied from the main synth that plays a sort of Rhodes role.

Yeah, don't think this sounds like it was made on a computer - sounds very acoustic and kind of like a live band.

7:38 though you might like the rapid dulcimer in this. Reminiscent of a particular, automatic hammering instrument (marxophone) used on a Portishead track (Orbital one too).

That dulcimer continues during the heavy section plus some big effects to create a strange, psychedelic bed.

Yes, 7:50 I guess it moves to major scale with the bass guitar. And we get a bit of violin to carry things over down over the drop back to that essential sitting jazz groove on 8:00.

I knew you'd pick out those short acid synth blasts. Instrument was just sitting on timeline but I like to put that sort of incongruity in a jazz track.

In the last couple of minutes it sort of is morphing into another song and I'm a bit embarrassed to admit I cut the end cool jam short just so I could fit whole thing on Looperman. I should probably extend it. Am tempted to make last 3 mins their own track. But I like the build from jazz to heavyish so don't want to remove that from the jazz track

Tough call to be made there.

Thanks for the thoughts, as always. See you for the next upload...

Thank you very much! All feedback is appreciated :)

You are still rude!

No need to be rude.

If you don't believe, it has the earth's frequency. What is the right frequency of the earth?

New Age Propaganda?

Does this sound like New Age Propaganda:

My first track by the way.

Steve i'm thankfull for your attempt but to be honest they both were by far different with what i expect from your musical level and class !
i hope you don't mind if i'm honestly saying that i didn't underestand your music composed for my acapella s .
of course probably that's my problem .
anyway I'm a composer bymyself too , and i tried to compose something by myself and soon you'll hear what i have composed for that song of mine .
i really appreciate your attempt Steve .
thank you very much .

Hi Steve,

Many thanks for listening and your comments, especially the late 80's vibe. Very much appreciated.
Best wishes,
Mark and you know who!!!!

Welcome back Steve and thx!

Although I can't find much resemblance (well, maybe a little bit in the chorus and the title itself)I must say I used to listen to Ultravox quite alot in the past. I remember beautiful "Vienna" and the long intro to "Visions In Blue" is still one of the most memorable favourites of mine...here it is...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpkasPwAtrQ

Thx for bringing memories back:)

oh Steve I got thrilled to see your fav sign for this!
:)
i reallize this is not amazing composition for
musicians like you and your friends but a huge
appreciation for support.
:)
what about that first one ?
I really can't wait to hear your version about that .
thank you very much for stopping by and feedback.
it's really good to know you have liked this one too.
thank you again .

Thank you!

..anyone with soprano vocals around here?...^^

...nope?...I will have to ask Justin Hayward ...^^

Wow, what a great compliment. Appreciate it.

Hey Thanks Steve!
Somehow funny to manage to create something worth listening too by almost an accident...
As I wrote to Behnam this was mainly for practising on how to use FL guitar sounds (and they are very modest here! =D ).
I also intended to create an instrumental for a new friend of mine who is a vocalist but it didn't turn out the way I intended so I used the pella from Nina Simone instead.

Well, glad to hear you liked it, now I have two fun projects to work on, this and the Devyn Rose-remix.

Hi Steve.

Thank you for listening and nice comment! I'm glad you like my track and disco sound.

Last night Dj saved my life. now that you mention it!I like it very much.Do you also like it?

Best regards.

Takeshi

Thx alot Steve! I think I'm simply plugged in Ed's way of musical thinking, which is pretty rare situation in my life. A precious coincidence I would say:)

With appreciation___Orlando

Fit for a Wookie!

I'm doing it again!!!

Thanks again, Steve - I wish there was a way to return all your help.

Now you are just killing me, Steve!
No - seriously, I have to take a break from this tune but am coming back to fix those drums. Thank you so much for guidance. You are a great mentor!!
