That was quite relaxing - thanks for posting.

Fine job Bjorn - I thought it was a good song - and you can sing better than you think - this was the best vocal performance I've heard from you.

Nice - you did a good job on this cover - I always liked this one - a great song. That must have been a tough drum track to program - sounds right to me. I agree with the strings needing to come up a bit more in the mix - I thought they could use some more verb as well.

Cool tune - I really liked it when the brass came in. Excellent mix.

Thanks for your crits Jack - Happy Holidays.

Thanks Kurt - I'm glad you liked it.

Thanks for listening Starise - I appreciate it.

That was interesting - the mood of the song definitely sounds like anger. When your vocal comes in - that was wild.

Excellent mix - I loved how the bass and drums sounded right away - nicely done. Top-notch guitar playing as well - it was a fun listen.

Very cool Starise - nice one. I liked the ambience of the mix - it was a pleasant listen, quite relaxing.

Hi Everybody, This is a track off of the album I'm currently working on called "The Westerly Sessions Volume V". As always, any comments or critiques are welcome, and thanks for listening. The lead vocal was sung with an AKG C214 through a Chameleon Labs 7603 mic preamp. The backing vocals were sung with an AT4040. The rhythm guitar was played with a Guild OM-140. The lead guitar was my Fender Strat through my ART MPA Gold preamp through TH-U. The bass guitar is my Ibanez SR500. The synths are UVI Synthology 3. The drums are AD2.

I liked the jazzy vibe to this song - and it has a bit of a Latin feel to my ears. The mix sounded good to me (especially the flute), with all the instruments coming through clearly. I always enjoy your piano playing - nice job on this one. Happy Holidays.

This is definitely in the style of Bjorn - a style I've come to recognize while listening to your stuff. A very pleasant listen - the lead instrument melodies were quite good to my ears. To me the vibe of this composition is positive and also relaxing - a fine mood to set for the listener. Happy Holidays.

I really liked the jazzy vibe of this song - a really cool groove to this one. The bass in this sounds great - good job there. I thought the mix was excellent - sounded quit nice to my ears.

Thanks John - I appreciate you giving it a listen - Happy Holidays.

Thanks for listening Kurt - Happy Holidays.

Thanks - I appreciate you taking the time to listen to my song - Happy Holidays.

Thanks Tom - Happy Holidays.

Thanks Bjorn - Happy Holidays.

Thanks for giving my song a listen and I'm glad you liked the mix - Happy Holidays.

Hey Tom - I agreed with you regarding the bass - so I boosted it at 150 - I already had a high pass filter at 300 for the rhythm guitars - anyway - now it sounds better to me. Thanks for lending your ears to my song, and Happy Holidays.

Hi Paul - I thought it was a cool rocking song - and it has an effective riff driving it. I agree with some of the posters above that the mix is a bit boxy. I enjoyed your lead vocal - well done there.

I liked the mood and atmosphere that this composition establishes - quite ambient and laid back. It's cool that you used the Z3TA on this - I need to explore it a bit more myself - it sounds excellent. Happy Holidays.

I thought this track had a cool vibe to it - I liked the bass synth patch which drives the song. This would be cool for a TV or movie soundtrack - well done.

I liked your lead vocal - there's a bit of grit to it that fit the song well. And wow, there was a lot going on instrumentally - it must have taken you quite a bit of time to mix this one. I thought it was a cool song - well done.
