Spirit and Bear-Faced Cow,

Thank you for checking out both of my songs and reviewing them; I appreciate it!

 

Bear-Faced Cow,

I still think your song “S.B./Cuz I Believe” rocks!  Have you made any new music lately?  I saw the Eagles play in concert a few months ago.  Your talk box guitar reminded me of Joe Walsh playing some solo material live at the same concert.  He still plays great!

Spirit,

Your song is nice and relaxing.  I like it.  Audio quality is good.  Perhaps you could check out my latest thread, which I will post in about 15 minutes.

Thank you for the reviews!  Now your song: my favorite part of the song was the drums; it made things sound a lot more alive.  The drums sounded very good!  This song, I feel, would be good for a movie where a main character is feeling stress, and then a car chase (or a foot chase) ensues.  Well done!

Spirit,

Thank you for the reviews!  Now your song.  I have wanted to snorkel with whales for ages.  Closest to that I have been was the whale shark thing, and I have snorkeled with porpoise in a huge pen at the ocean; even rode on one!  I also came across several of them while snorkeling in Grand Turk, in the wild.  I have seen Humpback whales in Maui a number of times (while I was on land by the shore); even jumping out of the water and breaching.  Your song was really nicely done; an interesting combination of styles, including jazz, in my opinion.  Very nice melodies and audio quality.  🙂

Spirit,

Not sure who Gaia is, but it is a very nice song!  The scratchy vinyl sound gives it an interesting vibe.  Yeah, so far I think the EZD3 bright room sounds the best on that software.  Nice job!  🙂

Spirit,

Thank you for listening and commenting, I appreciate it!  The intro female vocals on “Don’t Let Him Take You Down” are from EastWest Hollywood Backup Singers: it’s not unusual that I use use Melodyne to do pitch tweaks on those vocals too.  Yes, I have used that vocal software on some of my other songs also.  It is 3 Black women, one of which has sung with Pink Floyd in the past.

Reminds me a bit of Yes, which is a compliment.  I was supposed to see Yes in concert a couple of months ago and my wife got a mild case of covid, and I didn’t want to cause a super-spreader event.  Interesting synth sounds.  I thought it sounded pretty cool!  Perhaps you could check out my latest thread.

TrebleHook,

That time your link (the bottom one, the top one still doesn’t work for me) worked!  I won’t comment on the politics (no matter what a person says, you’re gonna piss off half of the US of A), but the song itself is very good all around.  I was most impressed with the slide guitar playing.  I use a slide once in a a while, but I wish I was better at it.  Melodyne can help me a bit with that, but not as much as I’d like it to.   Rock on man, you have talent!  🙂

TrebleHook ,

Thank you for the review!  I’m impressed by your drummer’s resume (or was he just the guy that worked on the toontrack drum software you used?), though your youtube link did not work for me.  I’m gonna see if I can find the song on youtube “manually”……………..nope that did not work either.  Even though I live near Los Angeles, I have been to Florida several times, mostly because of the snorkeling, typically in the Florida Keys.  First time I snorkeled in Florida (off of Fort Lauderdale), they didn’t tell me it was a shark snorkel tour until I was halfway through signing the liability waiver form.  It was great and I survived!  My main photo on my music website was from that shark dive.  And I like the swamps of Florida, and snorkeled with manatees once.

TrebleHook,

Thank you for listening and reviewing the song, I appreciate it!  I did my best to make the Chapman Stick plenty audible with volume, Line 6 Helix amp model and effects, and compression (probably 2 or 3 compressors: Helix and Presswerk).
