Lynn Wilson

This is one of the best songs I've heard in a while.  It's always a pleasure to listen to your music!

As good as your first song!

What a fabulous, dynamic song and video!  This is a winner in my book, much to study here.

I'd like to thank Mark, as well, for introducing you to our forum.  This is a terrific song and production; just perfect for the end of a very long day!  I have no crits, just kudos.  Come back often.

Great song and arrangement, Steve.  I listened to the two versions and liked them both.  A shining example for all of us.

I like the avant-garde vibe of this tune and the experimental nature of the arrangement.  This is what happens when you have so many ideas that you can't contain them.  What really stands out for me is your haunting vocal; you got that two part  harmony down.  Don't stop!!!

All round great production!  I particularly like the arrangement for this and the smooth vocals.  Makes me want to do better!

man what key changes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!at the start bass and drums need to tightened up.jack c.

Hi Jack, thanks for listening in and your perceptive response!  Perhaps you listened to the first version instead of 2.0?  Markno999 and I cleaned up the beginning in 2.0, which others had noticed, too.  I appreciate your input!

I decided to go straight for version 2.0, nice mix coming across here at The 4077, always enjoyed that type of HH pattern infuses a sense of energy without distracting.

Sweet  

Thank you, Wookie for your kind words and time!  I always feel better when it sounds good on your system.  Markno999 gets the credit for the cool drums; this is where he really shines.

If you're using ASIO drivers, the sliders don't respond.  Use the ASIO control panel.

I can dig this Lynn.  You always go outside of the box and I appreciate that.  I like the panning too, and of course the guitars are always great!  Nice work...again.

So much appreciated, Jesse!  You're the leader of "outside the box", and you've inspired many to think differently about how to present music.  Rock on!

Good job, Keith!  It's got the right blend of polish and grit to make it sound ready for prime time.  Next!

As always, you have demonstrated to us all that you are one of the very best musicians and composers around!  I never fail to learn something from you.  Keep up the good work, Rob!

I like the sparseness of this tune and the uncommon arrangement.  It's melodic but not overly sweet, kinda like the way I like my desserts.  Is this a finished product, or do you plan on adding more?  Regardless, it's a cool jam!

Daryl, you and Ed have cooked up a terrific song!  The words and music are a perfect pair, and all the performances are polished.  You have raised the bar, yet again, for the rest of us

Perfect!

You're going in the right direction, Keith.  Full speed ahead!

This one brings a smile to my face!  Nothing predictable here.  It reminds me of the lyrics "you gotta be cruel to be kind", if you know that song.  Your landscape is never ending...

Another brilliant vocal, Steve!  It's all there, just waiting for an audience.  The mix is polished, but not overly so.  Good vibes!

Billy, I've found one cool effect for reversing. Record your part "dry". Reverse it , apply a strong reverb. Bounce it to track , reverse it again. Straight part with reversed reverb. Sounds Way better than inverse verb option. Might be something to mix with the reversed swelling chords ..    Might be in TFM , don't know , never read it.                  mark

This was done by the Beatles and other progressive bands in the tape days.  Sure is easier and quicker now!!

Terrific, Bjorn!  You make it seem so easy, but I know how much work goes into something like this.  Very cool!

Exciting video and terrific song!  Just a question if you don't mind:  do you film your sequences?

Lots to like here Lynn ! Interesting, swirling and evolving as it goes, cool sound effects panned all round, you've really experimented in the audio recording here. (Yes, I think you always do)

I found the verse chord progression very different, and really like the way it chromatically bends my ear. Also, enjoyed your guitar playing and effects that you use there. The ending, hmmm. sounds like someone pulled the power plug. maybe that's what you intended . . . to tie in the lyrics . . . though, I kinda' wish "musically", maybe an explosion, or edgy sound effect might have wrapped it up it better. 

As always, just a great inspiring listen !

Noynekker, thank you for your nice comments and suggestion!  You may be right about an explosion at the end of this song; a cool idea that may find its way there.  
Actually, I was looking for something different to end the song because I often just fade out the ending.  Again, thanks for the encouraging words!

Just inhabit your start screen with new projects; the older ones will be pushed further and further into the background until they are gone.  No real need to eliminate them altogether.

Your songwriting and producing are better than ever!  This is quite sophisticated on many levels and cooler than heck!  The vocal is very ambitious - way outta my reach   Keep it up!

You have one of the best voices around, and you know how to use it to your advantage!  Both of these new songs you have posted have the same soulful flavor, and show off your terrific songwriting.  The  vocals and instruments are well mixed and pleasant to listen to.  I'm now inspired to check out Tonex because I love the sound of your guitar!  Stay well!
