I really, really loved the way you used the drums in this, just enough to
throw things off-kilter and make this more like alterna-jazz. It's a very
nice melding of genre's you've got going on here and who on earth
could resisit the title?

Ignore that apostrophe, please. I believe it was placed there by elves.

Apostrophe ignored, elves pardoned.

I fear that the title is dangerously long, but I couldn't resist dragging it out.
Can you imagine trying to put that moniker on the back of a jewel case? Ech!

well.. where to start?

Can't believe you've been pretty much ignored so far. I really, really dug this song. Beautiful articulation with your guitar playing. this is helter skelter with no immediate direction, yet still on a definite path home, so to speak. I just really liked how everything came together. Very nice bass playing as well. How did you put together the drums? Are they midi or loops, or did you mic a kit and play it yourself. I thought a few of the tom hits sounded a bit on the not so real side, but overall everything else sounded great.

are always the most dangerous." So said one of those famous types.

Thanks for the compliments, and criticism on the toms. I programmed all the
drums on the GB synthesized kits. This track used the "Pop Kit" as it pops up
on the track listing. It takes a rediculous amount of time to program each hit
the way I want it, but that way it sounds the way I want it. The repetition of
short loops (8-16 beats) is something I just won't deal with.

Thanks for the kind words,

....how could you go wrong. :)

Lots of free-floating fun. Love the contrast between the nice, smooth
flowing melody and the chaotic percussion. Nicely done.

How can one go wrong? Thanks for the compliments. That contrast was
exactly what I was going for. I'm glad it came across clearly.

Nice track! Derranged! Nice chords long title! Could be a little smoother on the guitar work but that's just coming from another geetar ripper! Nice track! I am a Bull!

Every time a bar came up and I thought, ah, OK, I get where he's goi...
what the? ROFL! There's that danged bull on drums again, and the
janitor playing his 6-string mop. This was addictively smirky for me...
glad our dear Ledeb pointed me over here. There was a little bass riff that
you altered just after the second half, that had this very very cool hiccup,
leaving out a note right where I wanted to expect one, that I found
infuriatingly fun. Argh... now I must apologize for not noticing you
before, and go check some of your other stuff.
ttfn,
Drakonis

good melody!

I like how the melody trips, crashes and stumbles through the A-section and
then grooves through the B-section.
