  1. Mournful and almost haunting mood to this. Really well done Wookie. The didgeridoo-ish instrument puts a sinister spin on the mood which is very effective. Take care, -Bjorn
  2. KSband, Steve, Nigel, markno thanks for the comments Larry, thanks for your comment. I was going for an upbeat melody which I think I got. -Bjorn
  3. Rik, Very nice and well played. Love that classical guitar sound. I kind of wanted to hear the arpeggio part by itself for a few measures with chord changes. Just a suggestion. I like the title which seems to fit the song well. -Bjorn
  4. Mark, Boy I really like that bluesy sound going on in the background and is that a cello (around 3:45)? Nice! Vocals fit the genre really well. Excellent. -Bjorn
  5. Freddy, Good story telling as usual. I like the voc treatment, but I think the level could be raised a little. Guitar break is a bit long.. Always enjoy the guitar playing. Well done. Put me in mind of John Prine's Hello In There. -Bjorn
  6. Thanks Rik. I've been resurrecting old unfinished songs and this is one I've been wanting to get to for a long time. I had a friend listen to it and she said it reminded her of Georgie girl. Kind of surprised me since I'm not hearing any similarity but then I read your comment saying the same thing so now I don't know what to think. Anyway, thanks for listening and I appreciate the comment. -Bjorn
  7. Same Time Same Place I started this song a few years ago, back when I used BIAB for backing tracks. I found a really nice fingerpicking midi pattern which I edited a little, then added a melody on top and some strings on the bottom. Bolder Sounds Fiddle Zebra Omnisphere Thanks for listening/commenting -Bjorn
  8. Steve, I like the occasional unexpected note in the melody. The song does sound 60s-ish like maybe Gilbert O'Sullivan? (Wow, don't know how that name popped into mind.) Well done. -Bjorn

    Elevation

    Nicely done. It has that overall ambience that puts me in a good mood. North rim of the Grand Canyon? -Bjorn
  10. Lynn, you have an unmistakable voice and it sits really well in your music. Good structure to the song, good mix and also I like all the accompanying stuff going on in the background. As markno mentioned, something sounds just a little out of sync around 3:30. I thought the tempo could be increased, maybe 5 bpm. Other than that I really enjoyed the listen. -Bjorn
  11. Real nice laid back feel to this. Good choice of chord changes. This might be the best I've heard from you Larry. -Bjorn
  12. That was very impressive Jerry. Not sure if the main instrument is a processed human voice but it lent itself well to galaxy traveling. I've done a few space videos but always with NASA images. Pretty cool that you're using your own images. -Bjorn
  13. I thought it was Dumbledore on 1st read, but nothing Harry Potter in the vid. I love travel videos of places I've never been and probably never will. Just excellent production here, the video and the music and the horizons were all level. One of your best Nigel! -Bjorn

    Forever

    Rex, while listening to this great song I got a nostalgia wave for 70s music, songs by James Taylor, Jackson Browne and others probably well before your time. I don't know, they're just well crafted songs that hit that emotional spot in your head. So, well done with that but I did want to hear something more engaging in the solo, maybe a more melodic line. -Bjorn

    Spanish Guitar

    noynekker (Bruce?) Thank you. I wasn't sure if the orchestral part really fit so I appreciate your comment. Andy I can't get enough of that eerie mood a classical guitar song can generate. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll check it out. daryl Thank you. I'm glad you mentioned that intro part. Kind of simple but I worked on it for a long time. Nigel, Thank you. Appreciate the comment as always. -Bjorn

    Yearning

    I always pay attention to the accompaniment tracks because there's always something there to learn (and steal) I like what was going on in the background, kind of subtle and simple but effective. -Bjorn

    Spanish Guitar

    Spanish Guitar I've always liked classical guitar music. I wrote a song a few years in a "Spanish" scale and here's another one. Thanks for listening/comments. -Bjorn NI Strummed Acoustic NI Picked Nylon Vir 2 Acou6tics u-he Zebra NI Session Strings Pro AAS Ultra Analog VA 3
  18. Paul, I really like the song esp the storytelling! -Bjorn
  19. Very engaging song and Still sounds great. Kind of reassuring that creative efforts can live on after you're gone. (The older I get the more I think about these things.) -Bjorn
  20. Those things that are hard to put in words can be better said in music. Take care -Bjorn
  21. Thanks Lynn. I appreciate the comment. Thanks Freddy. Yeah, the sun did come out but didn't help much. I think my visit coincided with a spell of bad weather. -Bjorn
  22. Hi Freddy Very nice accompaniment track to this and I really like the transitions between sections. Well done. I think it's been shown that a lie told often enough becomes the truth. -Bjorn
  23. Nicely done. I agree with the other comments about the voc being a bit too low. Didn't know what was going on in the story but I made up my own. I once helped a guy make a movie in public areas. Mostly went okay except for the airplanes, the screaming kids and people wanting to know what we were up to. So I can imagine what it was like making your vid. -Bjorn
  24. Thanks Steve. I appreciate the comments. -Bjorn
  25. Great lyrics! Totally enjoyed the listen. Usually you listen to a song and you settle in to the style after a few bars, but this one makes you wonder what's coming up next. Very well done. -Bjorn
