Lynn, love the song and the video is excellent.

The track reminded me a little bit of a Pink Floyd track, in a very good way.

Superb stuff

Nigel

 

Nigel, thanks so much for the encouraging words.  Your own videos have helped to inspire me to do more!  Best of luck with your new album.

Rex, I've heard a number of your tunes, and your vocals are among some of the best recorded vocals around, so I doubt you can blame your mic.  Hopefully, the new audio interface will solve your problems.  I'll be curious to hear what you have to say when it arrives.

loved this song the first time round and I love what you've done with it here.

Great video too mate - the combination of stock footage and your gorgeous self are spot on

Thank you kindly, Daryl.  This was worth the wait for me.

Loved the footage of the old flight contraptions.  So sublime, almost haunting listening to it with the pics. Both You and supareels have gravitas in your productions.  Keep it up!

Thanks, David, for the kind words.  I got lucky finding that old footage of early flight.  As for the gravitas statement, it compels me to do the "Weird Al" version of "Defying Gravitas"

Hello to all my CW friends!  I just completed a new video to a song that I posted here a few years ago.  To keep it all fresh, I remixed the song with some of my new tools to give it a fresh spin.  I combined stock video footage with some self-filmed sections to give it a home-grown touch.  I  hope you enjoy the subtle humor about getting older.  I'm still open to suggestions, so I welcome your input.  Thanks in advance for your time.  It can be found here:  

CLASSIC!  You are one brilliant wordsmith with a twisted sense of humor.  The vocals really stand out in this, but so does everything else.  Go FM!

I wish!  Steve, thank you so much.  FF is maybe my favorite band, at the moment.

I always look forward to hearing your newest recordings, and I'm never disappointed.  Your use of TH-U is having an influence on me, as I've started mine more and more.  Don't let up, and stay healthy!

You two go together like bread and butter.  I really like this song, and had to listen to it several times just to let it sink in.  I hope you do it more often!

This is what a marriage between reggae and rock-a-billy sounds like.  I love the lyrics and guitar solo, in this classic "Freddy" song.  You may well be the poet laureate of this site!

Daryl, I'm really impressed and excited by how this turned out!  You took the music that I gave you and dressed it up, wrote words that have meaning in these times, and made sense of this.  Your voice has a touch of David Gilmour which adds something special to this project.  Thank you for thinking of me!

Wow!  The song and video are top notch.  You guys are good role models!

This is one of the best things I've heard from you, and it cheers me up!  You have such a sophisticated library of sounds and the knowledge of how to use them, and it just gets better each time.  It makes me want to go back to the drawing board

I'm just jealous...

Tim, I love this version of an all time classic.  The only thing that caught my attention was that the dynamics are all over the place, but that could just be the mood I'm in.  I'll listen later, but I like this.

A bit short, but cool.

This is so different that I'll go to bed happy tonight!  A good example of art vs. commercialism.  Thanks for putting up the lyrics, they're very interesting.  I'll be listening some more.

What's not to like?  Mellow, smooth jazz with a haunting melody and beautiful arrangement make for a very tranquil piece of music.  Brilliant!

You're off to a good start, and the song is already catchy.  I'm sure you'll dial this in and make this a gem!

I'm glad I heard this before it went away.  Better than ever!

You have a way of owning your covers, and this is no exception.  Very well done!

Hi Lynn... If there is a way to insert a MIDI note into an Audio track, I am unaware of how to do that.

Create a MIDI with nothing else in it and insert a note via the piano roll view.  To find the end of a project hit ctrl-end on your keyboard.

Just a work around-insert a MIDI note where you want the end to be and mute that note.  Or, drag the end of an existing MIDI note (or clip) to the end point.

I love the deep tremelo on this tune, not to mention the nice phrasing of the chords.  It has a  textbook mix, and a hypnotic effect - classical Wookie!

I second that!  This takes me back in time, as I must have jammed this territory a thousand times.  The very rawness of it makes it fresh, imo.  You just can't fake this.

OMG, this is so dope!  This is one of my favorite tunes of yours on first listen.  Your vocal just shines.  (Boy, I'd love to hear you sing "Baker Street")  Please, keep making videos.  I hope to make one or two this year, just need some inspiration on the graphic's side.
