Great to hear something new from you! Hey Z - You have such a great sound and feel. I especially like the 'B' section of this tune. very nice (as usual). There are a couple places where the intontation sounds a hair off. It's not like you're playing sharp or flat but more like all your instruments aren't completely in tune. I'm talking cents difference. Great to hear new stuff from you... look forward to hearing more! Check out my latest song called I Can't Remember Me

Tuning? I find the software instruments to be quite a bit different than my electronic tuner. So it's possible I'm a little off, being tone deaf and all. I'll have to investigate that further to see if the tuner can be calibrated, because they are definitely different. This is the first time I used a software instrument and the pencil tool. I don't think Alimar has to worry though. Check out my latest song called Lazy Days

Blue Tube do that? I can't believe you're not playing through an amp! It sounds really fat. What sort of amp model are you using in GB, if any? This is a really nice guitar instrumental, and the layers of guitars work really well especially in the B section. You're one of those guys that actually practices, aren't you?

Blue Tube do that? Jim, I usually use a Johnson J-Station (Amp Modeler) but I tried using the GB Amp Simulator this time. I used the stock manual setting that comes up, but switched to American Gain and lowered the Pre-Gain a little, then threw in some delay and reverb. It's an 80's cheap strat with a single, double coil pickup, if that makes sense. Check out my latest song called Lazy Days

Oh yeah! Tremendous guitar playing! You're playing the bass too? Great tune. How do you write a song like this? Do you lay down a bass track and drums first? Or do you start with a guitar lick or melodic idea? Check out my latest song called Dance under the Clocktower

Oh yeah! I usually come up with a chord progression and record that with the basic drum beat to match. Then I'll lay in the bass and finally the lead on top of that. Then I go back to complete the drums. I'm new to all this so called song writing, but I enjoy it and this site pushes me to try harder. Check out my latest song called Lazy Days

What a shame... Thanks Skipper, the disclaimer in the description was based on your plea in the forum for vocals to be added to all these instrumentals. Believe me if I could sing I would add them. But I believe I succeeded a little by getting you to listen. Thanks again for the listen, I'll watch for your next one. Check out my latest song called Lazy Days

X-cellent guitar playing on this track! You play very expressively with good technical skill, a nice combination. I don't miss vocals on this tune. There's definitely a place for instrumentals as well as vocal-based songs. Very nice production here. Good use of drums. DOD really works well! My only suggestion for this tune is to have some sort of contrasting "bridge" section, with different chords. The same progression throughout the song got just a bit repetitive (to my ears, anyway). But you certainly play well and have a lot of good melodic ideas, executed nicely on the guitars! Good job. Check out my latest song called EPONYM

DOD I can't say enough about Drums On Demand, maybe as time goes by I'll need something else, but for now they work for me. Thanks Cameron. Check out my latest song called Lazy Days

Warn Me? Ya gotta be kidding me? I love to hear you play. The guitar is a little too up front in the mix though, I'd like to see it pushed back just a tad so that the backup can provide more support. Also, this chord progression has been done many times, so I'd like to see you take it in a different direction, where your fantastic lead work can really shine over something new. BTW, thanks for the comments on "Forgotten"! Check out my latest song called Pearls of Perfection

Great Playing ...can't criticize your abilities one iota! Nice legato phrasing similar to Satch! (i'm hearing a lot of his influence in guitar players here). The song (backing music) needs a little life. While others hear great use of the drum loops, i hear a part that needs a little bit of human touch. The canned drums don't match the energy of your guitar playing. An i agree that the song needs to go somewhere else (if only for a small break) to keep it interesting. Keep the songs coming. I love listening to competent guitar players. The age of the shredder is gone and I like to feel a little younger listening to great guitar playing.

Great Playing Thanks dc. Well at this point there's nothing I can do about the live feel of the drums. My programming abilities wouldn't produce something better than DOD and I don't have someone that plays drums, but I can work on the composition aspect. As I said before I'm new to writing songs, but I'll keep trying. Thanks for the push. Check out my latest song called Lazy Days

Been waiting for some tracks from you for a while!
This has to be the best track so far.. and I like all your
stuff!
Similar to Pink Floyd in sound and atmosphere this is a
beautiful piece of guitar playing. Produced really well and
it sounds amazing through headphones..
