  1. I enjoyed this one very much. I listened to some of your other songs on SoundCloud - good stuff! You have talent for ambient, a genre that isn't that easy to do. Looking forward to hearing your next one. -Bjorn
  2. Jerry I can hear cinematic as well as orchestral music here. The choral parts are especially outstanding which I assume is Requiem Pro. Happy birthday. You're right behind me. ☺️ -Bjorn

    The Darkness

    The Darkness. Not a cheery song. Just trying to portray in music the black mood I get into once in a while. AIR Music Tech Hybrid u-He Ace NI Reaktor Heavyocity Vocalise Arturia OB-XA Thanks for any comments/suggestions.

    demo2

    Nice chord changes in there. Horns have realistic detail. Excellent orchestration bringing it all together. The water heater in the studio made me laugh, but if you can work around it then why not? -Bjorn
  5. Amazing grace Tim, Love what you've done with the song. The Irish whistle (?) hits the emotional spots just right. The instrument levels could be tamed a bit but not a biggie. Really really nice!
  6. If Tiny Tim and Yoko Ono had a kid. You know I'm just kidding. I don't always comment but I do check in just to make sure Jesse's still Jesse.

    And Rest

    Sometimes minimalist says it best. I like the fast panning effect. Haven't heard that in a while. Very good. Enjoyed it!
  8. That judge Matson is a babe. πŸ˜ƒ Great job on the recording! Enjoyed it. Thanks.

    Hear my call

    Energetic as all get out. I thought the bass could be brought up a bit Great bass line under the voc ~1:50. Overall great job!
  10. You had me smiling while listening to this David. Love the playful back and forth of the instruments.

    Moonlit

    I guess I'll point out the arp-iness as well because it just sort of stuck out. It's not bad, just too much - like you're filling in measures with something that fits. And I only said that because that's something I tend to do. Anyway, your project is very promising. I enjoyed the listen.
  12. Nope, don't know anything about this character, but it's a cool song with a catchy melody.
  13. One of my favorite songs and your version is just great. Wow you hit those falsetto notes perfectly. I'm very impressed.

    Let Me Go

    Nice one Doug! You never cease to amaze me.

    A WORD

    Steve, very nice. Somehow you can make a melancholy song put me in a good mood. What's a D365?
  16. This was inspired by The Silver Ball from the Pearl album by Brian Eno and Harold Budd, one of my favorite albums. It doesn't sound anything like the original except for a phrase here and there. I did this in several takes, mostly improvised and followed with a lot of PRV corrections. Then I added three accomp tracks - strings, aaaahs and noise fx. NI Grandeur Omnisphere Thanks for listening/commenting.

    Part 5

    Wookie, ~0:40 cool synth entrance with really catchy groove Great chord changes with some unexpected notes. Kind of Kraftwerk-ish (?) I like it!
  18. Oh Shenandoah always gets to me. Same with Waltzing Matilda - I think I have it associated with a war movie or something. Gets me blubbery every time.
  19. Well, you asked. How about Stardust? I think you'd give Nat King Cole a run for the money.
  20. Steve, I always look forward to hearing another song of yours and this one didn't disappoint. Melodic πŸ‘ Kind of sad in a good way. I think I mentioned wistful once. Seems like drums struggling to fit in. Might be better without? Timing off in a couple of spots, no biggie Abrupt ending. Just minor nits. This is a very good song that puts me in a nice mellow mood.
  21. Very good dulcimer and orchestra. Might be just my ears but seemed like bass could stand out more. The oooo's and aaaaah's are nice but could change up more, eg an oooh turns into an aaah within same phrase. I like the overall buildup to the dramatic ending. Great job on this.
  22. It's the Freddy genre. I barely recognized your voice at first. Sad lyrics but clearly sung. Really liked the guitar accomp to the singing. The spoken comments are very good. Liked that.
  23. Kenny, Very good! Did you lay down the backing tracks too? I ask because sometimes you use backing tracks from elsewhere. Whatever, I like how the layers interact so well.
  24. Gary,I just assumed this would be you singing since you did the White Christmas cover a while ago, which is sort of in the Big Band genre. Sounds like a really good mix to me and how could it not be considering your star ship studio? πŸ™‚ Much envy.
  25. Sounds like a useful patch. Creating sounds is a real artform.
