Description:
When Feter began his Woodstock Challenge, Patrick and I were here ... for the backstory ... go here: http://www.macjams.com/song/40886
... thank you Cat... we ask for just a taste and you gave us a 7 course feast.

Production Note: This is our guitarist "Outtaorbit"'s take on this tune and I am amazed.... thanks Patrick for a turn of the corner here. I do believe our guitarist "Orbit" took this tune to a new and wonderful place.

The mix was done to present layers of sound density to enhance the "mist" like feel of the track. Hopefully it will not induce vertigo. While the end dissolves in a rather "undramatic" way ... it was felt this was appropriate for the ambient feel of the track and we hope it does not disappoint.

We have had the fantastic experience of working with some of MJ's most active female vocalist and each time they have influenced our take on a tune and added so much more than we ever could have ask for... so sincere "hats off" to the talented female artist here ...

hello feter &mdash 05/12/08 - 08:26:36 AM
well thanks to for the advice and guidance throughout this tune's passage from concept to two versions ... we really rely on you my brother and you never disappoint .... peace and blessings to you our friend!

excellent work (in progress) &mdash 05/11/08 - 07:18:24 PM
What a tease you are! So... this is a gorgeous song... parts feel very Pink Floyd-ish, lush guitars, perfect phrasing between the long slow part and the fast-sung part. My thoughts are that (1) this feels too restrained, like it wants to burst out near the end and really sweep us all away with a great build and a solid ending, but it does not, and (2) Myst's vox seem a bit muffled and not "in" with the rest of the recording. Great singing by both of you, and sweet guitar work and music writing. I would *love* to hear some more work go into this, it really deserves it!
ttfn,
Drakonis

Outsatanding &mdash 05/12/08 - 01:03:41 AM
At the start, I thought this sounded like (good) U2, but you take it in a much more subtle direction. Both vocals are top notch, Mystis vox adding a gentle counterpart to the soulful main vocal. I just LOVE the guitar work on this - really well written and structured.

Just outstanding guys

first off &mdash 05/13/08 - 07:07:33 AM
beautiful picture! I have fallen in love with a true cherokee indian girl. and my feelings for her echoed in your song. Maybe this will be the song that reminds me of her the most. It has a Dire Straits feel to it, your calm execution of ideas is testimony of that. Vocals are crisp, a bit in the back, but mixed with madam Mystified lushes vocal stabs it does the job, very well! Glad to have found the time to listen to this. Thank you Jack for sharing this:-*)

Brilliant..... &mdash 05/13/08 - 02:48:18 PM
This piece is, to me, instantly enjoyable.

For some (positive) reason it reminds me of a Tears for Fears arrangement, in many ways and I could hear them do this very easily.

It's an excellent piece and one that I'll listen to a good many more times before my ipod wears out.

Take care.

A wonderful track &mdash 05/13/08 - 08:54:14 PM
The singing (from everybody involved!) is fantastic, and the mix is great. This does have a Pink Floydish vibe, amply helped by that terrific guitar swirling and washing around the mix. Deep bows, folks. You have created something magical. Nicely done. Peace.

the final cut. greatly fleshed out in arrangement and mix. on top of the vocals, the hendrix style reverse guitars is to dream for.
