one of the darker songs I've heard from you.. I like it.. very nice acoustic solo.. if it needs anything, I would say more of that.. more solos.. I like the minimalism.. more of that sweet soloing would do it for me.. good one..


-edit- you can never go wrong with some string sounds too.. backwards strings maybe.. :)
 
very trippy....you can sterilize it with more instrumentation or you can leave it as is.....it has a haunting vibe......maybe just a tad more vocal during that end part.....i doubt youll go with the strings, but if you do, very sparse spriggles could work.....
 
Definately very nice. I dig the miniamlist approach too. Sounds great.
 
ok, how about on that ending part (~ 2:13 on) do like 2 spoken word parts that start out real low and fade in and out with the music and pan the 2 parts hard left and right.....something sorta like Slackmasters "Hindsight" intro (kick ass song).......

of course id have to get a co-production credit and a 1/2 point.....







ok 1/4 and thats my final offer.....
 
great sounding acoustic guit.............i like the stereo intro with them.............wasn't crazy about the delay on the vocal, would have prefered just a nice reverb..... that's all subjective though......good singing...........i like the guitar solo........the mix is a tad bass boomy at times, might eq a little bass out of those acoustic guitars, not much though...........nice work
 
Emeric I like it a lot. I like the way it picks up with the guitar solo. Very sweet sounds. You have a real nice voice too. Sits great with acoustics. I love the drone from 3:40 ish out. Glad you recorded this. It sounds like a glimpse into a moment of someone's day.
 
Wow, this just sounds really nice...very musical...dare I say "warm" (ugh, sorry bout that). I really like it...I don't think it needs more work, it stands on its own.

...in fact, this is the most "real" sounding mix I've heard in a while. If I close my eyes I'm not "listening to a song idea" or "checking out a recording", I'm just listening to music. Very good job!

Just got your Part 10 song.

Man that sounds sad, even for you. Hope everything is cool!

I loved the thumpy and crisp tones on those guitars.

I thought it needed some understated jazz drums.

And I think you should rerecord that solo line. I know you can get that better.
 
I liked it too... although I thought the solo got a little "lost" at times, and was looking for a place to go next. The singing was nice...very musical. I suppose you could critique the recording stuff and all that. If you went further with this, I'm sure you'd clean up all the little nits and picks, here and there....

one thing...on playback...at the very beginning...and I played this several times to check...at :10...the right side of the stereo gtr seems to "pop" in ...like a bad audio connection made contact...finally. Just before the 2nd acoustic comes in...
 
Hey Emeric,
Nice stuff man. A different feel to this one. ...very nice vocals as usual. Nice solo............. strange post coffee vibe

Great work man,

Lots of color

I really dug this song. I like the way it feels. It creates a "MOOD" for me. It takes me somewhere. I think thats a great thing in a song. Like it was said before, if I close my eyes its there. The feel of the guitars creates this certain tension throughout the song, but yet it is mellow? STING is able to do that with his songs alot. There doesnt have to be a ton of stuff going on but yet it grabs you and holds on. Ok, I will shut up now. My personal opinion would be...............No strings or anything, I like it stripped down and intimate. Just my opinion, I know what ever you choose to do it will be good though.


Later

B.SABBATH: Thanks. It is a bit darker of a tune for sure, I guess I'll be redoing the solo's so maybe I can add more and have more structure to them. I don't think I'll add strings, I found them to difficult to integrate.

Gidge: I doubt I'll go with strings either. Quarter point is yours if I use those suggestions. :)

Track Rat: Glad you liked it.

powderfinger: The echo might be a bit much, I'll reconsider that. The acoustics are the same as the last tune, same boomy and possiblly too bassy sound! Thanks for checking it out.

SLuiCe: Thanks!


Slackmaster2K: Appreciate the comments Slack. Actually I used The V67G on both acoustic and vocals into an ART Tube MP (hence the 'warmth' lol). Thanks for listening to it!

Drstawl: Hey, everything is as cool as ever :) I thought about some percussion as well, I almost recorded a tamborine but couldn't find it. Your right about the guitar solo, it can be done better - and I will. Thanks for the feedback.

mixmkr: Your right about the solo as well. That's what happens when I improvize instead of 'write' a solo section - it's gets 'lost' :) I check for that 'click' sound tonight, quite possible something happening there. Thanks mixmkr.

Guernica: Thanks for listening Guernica. Post coffee vibe! :)

--Edit--

SixStringBlues: You must have posted while I was writing the other response. I don't think I will have strings in it. I can hear how they would fit in, but it would be easier to leave them out. I never thought of it as 'tense, but mellow' Thanks for the kind words - appreciated.
 
Listening to the intro, I thought I would add more instrumentation. It would be easy to write string parts for this for example, but after hearing the rest of the song, I think I just might leave it as is. Very nice. I'd kill for that guitar sound.
 
I dig the delays on vocal. The only thing that kinda stood out was the noise of the pick, but that could be an effect tho.

yeah, my strings comment was a joke because I totally knew that everyone would say it sounds great the way it is and would ask you not to add them..

I was right! :)


Seriously though, it is cool the way it is.. easily one of my favorites of yours..
 
Very nice mood piece. I respect your ability to go from point A to B to C to D (etc) rather than to follow a standard format. Actually, I wanted it to go on longer. I liked the immediacy of the guitar sound. I would not cut down the bass frequencies. You need extra bass on a solo acoustic guitar piece. Cut down on the bass and people will start telling you it needs a band.
 
I can't wait till next sunday:D . Man this was as someone else said a "dark piece" for you, I just bet you got a lot of diffrent styles up the ole sleeve too. Great playing and Great singing on this. How do you go about writting stuff...gtr riff/ then lyrics or vice-versa? Great tune Emeric!
