Hi Freddy, Many thanks for the great comments & compliments. As your probably aware I am essentially a lyrics guy, guitar, well not so much as I'll never play like you can, so I depend on plugs like NI to hold the structure and then add my own bits to it so it's not cheating .... the rest is all in my head . I use Plat, Bandlab and CB12 Pro, but this was done entirely on Plat then mixed using CB12. The song was inspired by my grandson and school stuff we all go through at one time or another as we grow.... Keep up the great work mate🤛 All the best Steve

And so I took it off restricted ... even with the salty language LOL Steve

Hi Nigel ... Thanks for taking the time to listen, it means a lot !☺️ ATB Steve

It's in the words my friend ... in the words .... Steve

I'd love to buy you a beer and discuss my reasons for writing this song mate, but it seems the message was clear. Thanks for the vid complement, means a lot having seen your stuff 😉 .. All the best Steve

Still laughing ...great comment thanks Steve

Thought I'd do one with the old Plat and Power Director .. sorry about the language or not

As a lyrics kind of guy ... love the lyrics, I think the arrangement has a little too much compression in that it has that everything 'in your face' kind of thing .. probably what you were going for, so all good. ATB Steve P

Continuing the shadows theme .. my very first 45rmp was The Shadows .. Stars Fell on Stockton ... bit more upbeat but your sound is so much like I remember Hank, Great stuff my friend ATB Steve P

Your on fire ... another great use of NI Steve

REM

Clean and catchy performance, great to hear James is still playing ... I don't have a prob with the toms ...fits the song just fine (you can pm me with the cheque Bapu) ATB Steve

Absolutely amazing ... at 72 I'm lucky to be alive ! 😉 Great work mate and very professional ( The wife was a little unimpressed ... I've been told not to get any ideas about ironing boards ) ATB great post! Steve

This song is everything it should be. The vocal to me ..... ( and I could quote quiet a few ) is so much to me, like my old mate, Lynne , and it cuts through the mix something grand. To me the mixing of all the bits and pieces are excellent ... I normally ask for the lyrics .. ' but in this case I hear them all ! ...and they are 2me something I wish I had wrote myself, the meter is spot on ... as is your guitar work and interpretation of the beat and just where it should be .... I'm thinking I like it .. should be on main stream IMO ... WELL DONE !! Steve

Well up to your high standard Bjorn, only nit that I thought the Sitar was just a bit to high in the mix but it's a very small nit. ATB Steve

Your work is so well produced it's hard to imagine a better sound. I hear a bit of Simon Le Bon and war of the worlds in this mix .. just so good ... Thanks for your posts m8 .. just love em! Steve

Lynn ! For the first time EVER! No Crits .. V2 is a great listen so from me to you 🤝 ... well maybe the ending left me wanting but how do you finish apart from that? All these years of mucking around and you produce a gem ... must go ... ghodda listen again 😁 ATB Steve

Good for a demo idea but the mix is severely lacking making the whole song toppy. Good to see lyrics but your vocal is, in some, places is very low. One last thing is that it's a happy tune with a sad message ...perhaps you meant to do it that way, who knows but you. I would suggest a remix with the comments here in mind

Just a thing ... 'cause it's my way .. Don't think your voice needs any process ...been going through your work and 'Side Effect of Technology' says it all ... well a bit anyway ....I think I am becoming a fan ... so don't let me down on the lyrics LOL 🤝 Stay well Steve SupaReels Music

Yep, it's the same deal from my end Bjorn, it's just that from then to now your stuff ( and vids ) have become so professional ( respect ) I wondered if you was gonna take the hop 🙃 For me ( with the home built PC ( as you ) I think I needed reassurance. Good to know you get great stuff from your gear. I had the opportunity to look up an old mate and he had the latest Mac book set up / when he told me how long it took to swap things around with the flaf ( Samples etc ) Not the main progs, I don't think I'm young enough to learn a new O/S ... plus I wanna sleep 🥺.. I use C/w by Bandlab and C/b 12 pro , and IMHO they are the best ... for everything a songwriter needs. Thanks mate for responding 👍means a lot Stay well Steve

Left comment on SC Great song .. a real laugh .. must be my warped SOH 🙃 .... ATB Steve

Right! I listened (a couple of turns maybe more 😉 ) I am a reader of words and I love (if that's right, given the sadness and seemingly hopeless message ) what you have put down in your music, for me, it seems unfinished, and I also feel that I can't offer a crit to help ... just that something is missing .. certainly not the verse, but in the whole piece somehow.. maybe the high hat could come down a bit and bass drum up, to carry the tune through , the continuous drone of the pad is great ( John Lennon's 'I'm only dreaming ' comes to mind) .. for me you have a real feel for the message and skipped your skill as a musician, in some way. Never the less it is a great piece and worthy of a little more time ..instrumentally ... plus! "where's the lyrics!"😎 LOL All the best Steve

Yep! been there ... Are you using MAC? or staying with windows ... Just idle interest as I was thinking of moving over to Mac ... but the work eerrg Steve

Hi Bjorn, I also get a bit of G/G in this piece, but it brings to mind 'The good the bad and the ugly' sound track ...dunno why ... However your getting really good at musical communication , where one sound counters another .. and so on. I really am a fan of your work ... but where's the vid? LOL ATB Steve

Thanks for the words Lynn ... food for thought me thinks ....
