Larry T.

Thanks Nigel ????

thanks Tom....yes, Carson City area....if i had a dollar for every time i've played along with a Neil Young song i'd have a nice size stack of $$$$ lol!!!!....yeah, the rhythm in my songs has a lot of rubato which is why i don't have drums in any of them yet....back porch feel it is, relatively quick production compared to the last two i did....i think have two guitars on almost every guitar part, one panned L and one R, each to a different percentage....except the bass, elecrtric piano and harmonica....cheers!!!! ????

greetings!!!!....latest creation is called Rocket the Dog (ambient pop music)....critiques, comments, questions all welcomed....here we go: link: https://larryterrano.bandcamp.com/track/rocket-the-dog-ambient-pop-music DAW: Cakewalk by Bandlab pc: windows 10, i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz, 8GB ram, acoustic and electric guitars, bass guitar, focusrite scarlett solo, arturia minilab mkII, arturia analog lab 5 lite, CbB effects, harmonica reference speakers: M-Audio BX3 Special Thanks to Mike Enjo at #creativesauce on You Tube whose incredible videos on how to use CbB made this possible

nice groove and melodies....put those two things together right and you've got a good thing going....enjoyed it ????

pretty cool....interesting combinations of notes to create the ominous atmosphere....sounds like the Locrian mode or, if that's not what he used, it's what Locrian should sound like!! lol!!!!....sounds good as is but could also be a part of a larger composition or as a template to add other instrumentation to ????

nicely realized....all instruments sound very well balanced and compliment each other well....nice vocal....reminds me of the great "Life in a Northern Town" by Dream Academy....well done ????

great, as usual....the sequencer parts fit perfectly....had to give it a like even at this stage of creation, i don't think it really needs much else as you have a lot of good stuff mixed really, really well at this stage....but of course, carry on!!!! ????

really nice....great choice of instruments, they really compliment each other without stepping on each others frequency toes....the individual instruments mode changes are really nice....enjoyed very much ????

enjoyable....short, concise, to the point....well done ????

thanks for the offer, i will see what i can manage as i work full time and do my music whenever i can so i don't have any spare time left!! The Lamb is one of the most awesome albums ever made, been a source of inspiration since it came out in 1974 ????

nice ????

nice, chill soundscape....great work as usual ????

i can really hear Peter Gabriel adding vocals to this....the trance music compliments the controlled frenzy of the guitar sustain....i think it needs more parts/music to take it to the next level but a nice foundation to build on ????

i like the second version better....nice soundscape and tribute....peace to Lilly ????

not bad at all....you have the virtual drums sounding good and in perfect time (which is something i'm still trying to master)....the fragmentation of the piece is something i'm not a big fan of as i prefer cohesion and groove but that's just my personal taste....would really like to hear you put together something else like this but with a steady groove and getting the sections to flow forward easily....good work!! ????

really nice work on that....great sounding mix and performances and cool video....good luck!!!! ????

thanks tom....the harmonica was something i wanted to try to see if it would fit....after awhile i figurered out where it would fit right....the squeaking strings i really tried hard to keep them as quiet as possible but the song has some quick changes and this is the best i could come up with....the strings are D'Addario extra light that are labeled "bright"....i will try the "Flat Tops" and "Half Rounds" soon....i thought a good equalizer would be able to take away the squeaks as the CbB one won't....i never thought of a de-eser but i'll give it a try, thanks!!!!....i did use some volume automation to hide some of the isolated squeaks where i could but some places they were all happening within seconds and it would not work....thanks again!!!! ????

thanks Bjorn....yes, i really tried to keep this as minimal/organic as i could ????

hi jeff....thanks ????

thanks and glad you liked it....no 12 string on the song, i do have an acoustic 6 string on both left and right sides panned completely 100% left and 100% right....yeah, without Mike's tutorials none of my stuff would sound half as good as it does as i would still be looking through the manual for instructions ????

greetings!!!! here's the latest called Ocean (ambient pop music)....have at it ? ???? link: https://larryterrano.bandcamp.com/track/ocean-ambient-pop-music DAW: Cakewalk by Bandlab pc: windows 10, i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz, 8GB ram, acoustic and electric guitars, bass guitar, focusrite scarlett solo, arturia minilab mkII, arturia analog lab 5 lite, CbB effects, harmonica reference speakers: M-Audio BX3 Special Thanks to Mike Enjo at #creativesauce on You Tube whose incredible videos on how to use CbB made this possible

the link is to the album ""Penelope" which combines classical and pop ideas into a kind of unique sound....i enjoy parts of the album very much as it's pretty rare to find a whole album i enjoy from beginning to end....cheers!!!! ????

very nice....if you haven't already you may want to hear some of Sarah Kirkland Snider's work with Ensemble Signal and Shara Worden on vocals: https://www.allmusic.com/album/sarah-kirkland-snider-penelope-mw0002045465

beautiful....to bring down any transient on my stuff i just use the CbB volume control on each individual track and manually adjust each violator down to an acceptable level ????

yes....this sounds much calmer and accessible to a western listener....beautiful ????
