Must have been tedious to put that movie together back in 1933. Lots of cutting and pasting, as in a knife and tape and not the digital definitions today. Nice work on syncing the lyrics to the beat. The Beatles nod at the end fit in very well. I think I'd try changing the Twin Peaks clip to monochrome and adding an old time look filter on it. And when that doesn't work I'd revert back to the original. Always interesting stuff you do, Steve. -Bjorn

Little White Pill I got the idea for the lyrics from a song by Gillian Welch called "My Morphine" I've always liked the song for its melody and for the not your usual love song subject. https://gillianwelch.bandcamp.com/track/my-morphine For my song I wanted to use the melody from Blueberry Hill but I couldn't hit the higher notes so the song evolved into something else. I haven't done a vocal in a while for obvious reasons. I used a lot of Melodyne which helped get me on pitch but it introduced some artifacts which I gave up on trying to fix. So the vocal isn't too good but it doesn't much matter. It was fun to do. Thanks for listening/comments.

Very very nice. Liked it a lot. -Bjorn

Promising start. Keep it up. -Bjorn

Sounds good and sounds like you had a great time making the music. -Bjorn

Very smooth and laid back. Great mix too. Everything is well placed and easy to pick out. -Bjorn

Jack, Wookie, Steve - thank you!

Today is Yesterday's Tomorrow Just an energetic electronic noodling kind of song with some movie dialog bits thrown in. Thanks for listening/commenting.

Best cover of Crying I've heard, not only hitting those high notes but also expressing the emotions behind them. -Bjorn

Wow, I think I like your version better than the original. Simply wonderful work, Ross. -Bjorn

I was in a band called Missing Cat. Maybe you saw our posters? Ok maybe not a pun...

Lot going on in this song and you handled it like a pro. Excellent -Bjorn

Nice use (and control) of delay fx and I like how the piano fits in so well with the backing track. I really enjoyed this one. -Bjorn

Mar, remarkable how close this sounds to a CSN song. No crits from me, just wanted to chime in and say how much I liked this. Love the guitar! -Bjorn

Impressive array of synths and they're all synced up well. Just my opinion: The thumping drum is too dominant and repetitive but maybe that's the "house" genre signature (IDK. I don't keep up) There were some moments without the drum and right there I heard a nice background for playing improvisational keyboard stuff. Like I said, just my opinion and taste in music. -Bjorn

Thanks for the comments and suggestions. Well I don't know why I put in the dialog stuff except it seemed like a good idea at the time. Gonna take it out. -Bjorn

Sounds really good. Was the vocal track pretty clean after the extraction? Going beyond the techy stuff I thought the song itself was very good. Nice job. -Bjorn

I really like the backing track. Simple but effective and plays off the vocal well. -Bjorn

Very energetic and imaginative. Really liked it. -Bjorn

Best song I've heard from you Makke. Love how you bring out the emotions on every note. -Bjorn

Very cinematic track. Would work very well as soundtrack to a nature program. The ending could be resolved a bit better but very nice overall. -Bjorn

Hi Jeff, I'm impressed you were able to write a song while traveling and it sounds pretty good too. Very nice. -Bjorn

I haven't been all that motivated lately - Health issues in the family. I do appreciate the comment, Steve. Thanks

Steve - thanks for the comment. I do appreciate it Jack and Old Joad- thank you equality - thanks. It always surprises me how listeners have different takes on songs (and everything else in life) Noynekker - I've added bits of old movie dialog to my songs before - sometimes they work and other times not so much. No reason for the good manners subject . Just seemed like it might work.

A Night in July Just a dreamy track about a warm night in July, sitting in the backyard viewing the Milky Way and wishing it could be like this all the time. Thanks for listening/commenting. -Bjorn
