Description

I've been re-mixing and mastering some of my older tunes. This was one that the vocals were a bit off pitch. I modified the bass and one of the keys.

I'm filtering these old songs back in my macjam mix. Thanks for taking the time and lending me your ear.

Lyrics

Dragging my feet all night
Gathering an appetite
I hunger for a paradise
I flee...

Need not encouragement
Just another Sentiment
I feed from life’s nourishment
I breath...

Take the time to ask yourself
Are you content what life has dealt
Take the time just open your eyes
And see...

Life just past but don’t you wait
Grasp it with both hands don’t delay
Grip it tight and fight don’t
Let it go...

Fear no what’s around the bend
Succeed you will victory at hand
Take the time to open wide
You’ll see...

Take the time you’ll understand...

	Taking the time Ah, that TexaxFeel signature sound! Complete with backwards guitar. Love it. This mix is well done. Precise placement and separation instrumental and human voices in space. Everything is well tuned. Nice play of lyrics. Is that contrapuntal descant voice done with a voice changer with added delay effect? A real woman's voice would be my only suggestion for improvement.

	The sound on this is amazing The guitar sounds cool at the beginning, and the vocal is wonderful. I love the effected vocal in the background. Those drums are just perfect - what a great snare sound. Love the lyrics and the vocal performance. Your voice is excellent - makes me think somehow of John Martyn. Very cool. Nicely done. Peace. Check out my latest song called Across the Wire (MJRF)

	Discovering… … quite late this beautifully crafted song, due to Tobin's selection for MJ08 Album Challenge. Excellent interwaving of guitars, great vocals, a real Texasfeel gem… An excellent oppotunity to wish you a great Happy 09 Year (hoping it's not going to be the catastrophia everybody predicts…) Check out my latest song called Fortin Blues
