Thanks for the feedback guys,
Hey Flat-9 you need to get out more, get a sense of humour and set your browser outside nowhere radio every once in a while! ![Smilie :) :)](/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Thanks Again
Neil,
You are right, man. Sorry, my post was out of character as they are usually well thoughtout, detailed and helpful. ( dj stuff just puts me over the top.)
I've been musician 24/7 for all my life and usually comment on musical structure, execution and emotional content as opposed to recording technique.
Good song, well arranged. I think it was money well spent albiet the saxman could have played more esp during the short open measures and a short 16 bar solo would have worked well.
The bed itself is a reflective, laid back and pleasantly plaintive in character but I do think the vocalist and reed player could have put a little 'more' into it without disrupting this but actually enhancing the message emotionally.
The contrapuntal lines in the supporting instrumental parts are well written. I especially like the string line but some of the release notes end to abruptly.
What is that sound that happens on the vocalists release of the word 'Keep' @ 1:04, 1:54? ( I actually think it's her throat and it's quite unique and personal.
Nice use of the belltree and also slight layering for a little more fattness esp with the Fantasia patch ( at least thats the name of it on Roland synths) @ the start of the @nd verse.
Good work man! I'm in the clinic if you have time to check out 'Bedlam' ( B-3 smoker) &' Sax American Style' ( smooth jazz & ya,... it's a sax patch
