A history lesson through song This wonderful piece had the power to take me back through song to that violent time of Irish history. Brilliant!! Excellent manipulation of the midi instruments, some of the best I have heard. Do you have a website with more? I'll go check your profile. Meanwhile thanks for a history blast.

Grand Nice sound here with the software instruments. It makes for a very convincing sound, although it's hard to hide the artificial sound of the flute. I would like it more if the vocals and lyrics were center stage, a little more up front in the mix. While listening, I went to your bio page. One question: why didn't you play some of the instruments live? Check out my latest song called La Valse Final Waltz

Grand Thanks for the feedback. I found that playing real instruments really taxed my Mac's processor, especially when using effects. The trade off was to use software instruments so that I could process the vocals. I'll plan on doing something with real instruments at a later date. --- S.

Irish eyes are smiling This is a wonderfull departure from most of what I hear here. The vocals could use a little more clerity and volume, but it's a great tune. Check out my latest song called Vickys Song

I can smell the peet burning as I wander through damp streets. Great job at re-creating an environment through song! You definitely tapped into some buried memories with this one. More bottom out of the bodhran drum, and spread it slightly to fill more of the room would have been an even more saturating experience. Conversely, the vocals would be clearer if they were more centered -- not dead center but fairly close. I remember the bands used to sit close together in front or off to one corner. The switch in panning (or vocal takes?) near the end was interesting -- in some ways I liked that sound better than the mix you have from the begining. Enjoyed this -- please do more! -sailhome Check out my latest song called He Is Risen

Ottawa Memories I worked on and off in Ottawa about a decade ago. I went to an Irish pub with a live band a few times and really enjoyed it. This brings back those fond memories. I’d love to hear this with live instruments. The vibraphone sounds out of place in this one. Although, I’m surprised how well you did with the other MIDI instruments.

Really gets under your skin A joy to listen to and with a tune that stays in your head for ages. It's got a lovely strong vocal which suits it perfectly. I'm impressed with the quality of the software instruments, which mostly sound very authentic and are well suited to the song. All in all a great piece and I'd love to hear more along these lines! Check out my latest song called Amongst The Colours (w/ Luna Trick)
