There is a very interestingly textured rhythm to this song.
Great use of all the sounds you've called upon. I also like
how you pull things out and bring other sounds in.
Good job on the arrangement...9.9.8.8

Kenta, thank you for listening and commenting. You are very observant, there
were lots of places in this piece that I had to fill in around Dion's base tracks.
I tried to add bass and in and around his bass for instance. Made for some
interesting sonic transitions. peace - john

nice jamming! John, you really did Dion's exquisite rhythmic groove
justice with your keyboard sounds. This piece is sonically satisfying!

Be well!

Yeah, I too like it; it's got a really interesting opening, then settles into
a nice groove. But I wanted the neat stuff you had at the opening to
continue, or at least come back! There was a cool guitar vamp thing
happening in there, but where'd it go? I thought you were setting up a
cool jam for the guitar, or maybe the guitar jamming with the electric
keyboard.

Also, not sure if this is just my setup, but it seemed like the levels were
kind of low, and the tone fairly muted. Anyone else find this?

I'm not a big fan of fade-out endings, but hey, they exist, and there's
really nothing wrong with 'em, so yours is fine. I guess I just like to
have things end more conclusively, but that's probably just me.

The main thing is that (a) I think it's really, really good; got a very cool
overall feel, but (b) I wish it had gone on longer, and I wish the
coolness at the beginning hadn't been abandonded!

Cheers,
Clark

Clark, all welcome and excellent observations. That cool intro is Dion Young
(Cydniko) he emailed me a "bed" and then I painted over it. Always a fun
thing, but alas somewhat limited in the interaction available. I think the
muted sound is my issue, as I have yet to master the mixing so as to achieve
maximum saturation and clarity.

Very nice work, mister K - Oh how saweeeet it is... - I was kinda taken
aback when you first mentioned that it didn't work for you and not
because I was offended or anything, it was more that I thought that
this was right up yer alley - I'm glad that things came together for you
on this - You tagged it with, 'what is warm and sultry' - And abit
sexxxy too - Thanks, this was good - Dion

Dion, sometimes its the state of mind that shifts ever so slightly to reveal the
possibilities. had fun with this. thanks for thinking of me when you sent it.
This & Duel are two of my fav's.

I say that every time Cyd posts one of his songs! :-)

Lovely production on this, everything crisp and clean.
Music to watch your windscreen wipers to on a warm rainy day.
The sort of stuff Air would do if they were as good as you - great stuff.

Echo, thanks for the great visual. I day dream all the time. Try to limit it to
when I'm not driving

On the surface, the piece is laid back and groovy. But on second listen, I hear an underlying melancholy that sort of sweeps through the piece. Perhaps I'm just in a sad state of mind. But I really like the feelings this piece evoked in me.

Nice job, guys.

CC, thx for listening. I agree its got a melancoly feel

Smooth and pleasant, with a nicely understated and ethereal rhythm
(altho the snare was more like a click track than an instrument). Consider
placing this in Jazz or New Age, since it doesn't seem like a Rock
instrumental to me.

[ Reply to This ]

Tobin, classification has always been a bitch for me. The snare was in the
sound bed, so I couldn't much do anything there. Although it didn't jump at
me until you mentioned it. Shame on you! :-)

Classic collab of Cyd sending me an MP3 and me adding stuff (no changes to
his work) and straight to post. Someday I'd like to collect all my fav MJ'ers and
bring them into a studio and sand the edges. When I hit the lottery!
