Larry T.

Thanks David....enjoy your compositions also....I like to keep the music simple, clear and listenable without any clutter????

Thanks noynekker....I enjoyed I've Been Running as well ?? I've always liked Ian Anderson's of Jethro Tull acoustic guitar playing so probably had some of that going on when writing the piece....Tull was always partial to minstrel/Renaissance playing....I love a lot of that stuff too....????

Thanks Nigel. Glad you liked it. I played the guitars and bass with the wood jobs, the rest is CbB stock plug ins. I enjoyed I Want to Have It Easy very much too ????

Very well done ambient piece ????

Hi jsg....pretty perfect....you guys that combine classical, opera and synths into your compositions so well....i find that so refreshing....enjoyed very much ????

Hi Kevin....never got into Hawkwind nor ever heard High Rise but like your cover....imo guitar needs to be brought up....the rest is balanced pretty darn well ????

Hello Lorych....conjures eighties Brit synth pop perfectly....well done ????

Hello noynekker....very good song....i like the drums/rhythm feel you have in the song very much ????

Hello antler....nice tune that successfully creates its name ????

Hello Walt....very nice, love the groove through out the song....the voice clips work....enjoyed it very much ????

Another great job Tom....musically and visually....steely dan meets pink floyd kind of feeling imho....Walt has a very nice touch on the guitar....enjoyed the whole experience very much ????

Well done!!!!....holy mackerel jack....that is some prince-apallooza....the musical turns you wrote in there totally work ????

Yes ????

Los Angeles, CA....where even a squirrel can get a good slice of pizza ????

Very nice, indeed....the guitar has its own important place in the piece....the sweeping synths all contribute nicely....the tasteful sequencer work you have in there is perfect....i like the piece very much ????

yes....well, there are only two rhythm guitars in the song, both flanged and electric with one on right and one on left, i did automate them quite heavily in terms of volume and the difference in how they sound and, therefore, effect the song in different ways is huge....if this isn't it let me know a specific time in the piece, please....ummmm, the piano isn't, lol, it's a MIDI from the Arturia minilab mkII controller running the Pop Grand Piano (iirc) from the free vst suite Analog Lab Lite that comes with it and was written on the piano roll as i can't play piano much at all....

Thanks mark....the sweeping rhythm guitars are both played live by me on an electric>Boss Flanger pedal>my Focusrite Solo audio interface>CbB....one is panned completely left, the other completely right....the breakdown consists of one of the electric guitars, piano, SI Strings cello and bass....cheers!!!!

Hi mark....very, very nice, beautiful playing....clean and precise yet emotional and real....nice Celtic feel to the piece....arranged and produced perfectly with nothing over done....i like it very much ????

hello jack....you have some interesting musical juxtapositions occurring, kind of like a mix of paul mccartney and frank zappa imho....i would bring the piano up as you wrote some lovely piano music in there but needs to be brought up louder....well done, as usual ????

Very nicely done work garybrun....the new mix is louder and a brighter than the original and i do prefer it over the original mix...i enjoy the music in the piece as it is really good enough to stand alone on its own as an instrumental...you have a very good voice and did a great job singing this ( i am sorry but i don't know the name of the piece, i saw OMD and thought it was a cover of an Orchestral Maneuvers in the Dark song ? ) cheers ????

Greetings All....finished this about an hour ago so here we go....hope you enjoy it....alone (ambient pop music).... https://larryterrano.bandcamp.com/track/alone-ambient-pop-music DAW: Cakewalk by Bandlab pc: windows 10, i7-4770 CPU @ 3.40 GHz, 8GB ram, electric guitar, bass guitar, focusrite scarlett solo, arturia minilab mkII, arturia analog lab lite, CbB effects Special Thanks to Mike at Creative Sauce on You Tube whose incredible videos on how to use CbB made this possible

Hi abw1101b....like the arrangement, chord changes and overall feel (reminds me of steely dan, an all time favorite)....the mix, audio production and, of course, the drums (the usual culprit) need more polish/work (is there a difference????....i don't think so....)....you're on the right track (pun intended) ????

Hi Jeff....i made it through it....what you lack in production and studio finesse you make up for with a great voice and guitar work....reminds me of early allman brothers....keep going with what you got ????

Hi David........Thanks for the compliments!!!! ???? ....and the comments, i will get the volume up to speed....i googled what jack meant about the "440" as i had not come across that term before and found it an interesting fact to note....here is one definition i found: "A440 (also known as Stuttgart pitch) is the musical pitch corresponding to an audio frequency of 440 Hz, which serves as a tuning standard for the musical note of A above middle C, or A4 in scientific pitch notation".

....also, another quick fix is to make sure the SI Drum VST Input Echo button(s) on the track(s) that are bleeding into the current track(s) are set to OFF....
