  1. Not familiar with Jackson, but Dylan's Subterranean Homesick Blues has a lot of lyrics.
    It also has meter and rhyme.
    I'm a little old school that way, meter and especially rhyme, are not cast in stone.
    BUT, that's how I work. Bear in mind, generally, my collaborator writes the words;
    I edit for meter and do melody.
    I'd need a lead sheet on this to be specific, but its your tune.
    You put it up for review and these are my thoughts/suggestions.
    Worth exactly what you paid for them...
    I am trying to encourage, rather than discourage.

  2. Ant, I'm no "expert" so take this with a grain of salt.

    The lyrics are way too busy, you're barely getting each line in, and its not the tempo.
    You've got to trim the "fat" here. In this case "less" would be way "more".
    No where is it written that lyrics must rhyme or conform to some sense of meter; but most do.
    Find the "focus" of each verse and state it; line by line. This is poetry, not prose.
    Once you can deliver this without running out of breath, we'll talk about recording...

    Every "like" and "comment" helps.
    I try to encourage the community take a minute and help our forum members out.
    I'm afraid it mostly falls on "deaf" ears...

    as to small "m" mastering, I find it bewildering, but I "solider" on
    getting a track "loud", there's a million limiters to "squash" a track with, its that professional "sheen" that eludes me

    mix itself could use some work

    I'll hold the like for the coming re-mix.
    I think I'd try for bigger, bolder drums to give it that dance hall effect the image with it implies...

  5. Nice one Tim!
    Evidently I'm hearing the re-mix, the sax is sitting nicely in the mix here.

    had hoped the link to sensual sax was a work you had used it in...

    never been frustrated by library load times

    When Jim built the new machine 3 years ago it just made sense to go with the m.2.
    The net result was the faster load times, one of those "unintended consequences" that didn't bite me in the a-$-$.
    It was just recently (Legacy of Rock install) that I maxed out the 1TB capacity.
    I think some of the Group Buy went on the secondary VSTi drive (EVO) as well.
    Some put the OS on the m.2, and that seems like a "waste".
    Keep the OS "lean & mean", 250gb EVO's are perfect.
    But I digress...

    can be a challenge to pick video or shoot video for music already made as a way to highlight the music itself

    I'll second that, and you made it "jell" nicely.

    Wow! Great legs Bjorn .... LOL.?

    I was going to guess that was Bjorn's contribution to the vids.

  8. Jack, your lyrics are always interesting.
    Nowhere is it written that they must rhyme or conform to some sense of meter.
    Although, I do believe in creative writing class rhyme and meter were stressed.
    Keep 'em coming...

    Wow, I was absolutely sure I had hit "submit reply"

  9. A masterful collaboration! Tres Bien!

    ?'s to all...

    t

    its playing again, the first trip through I thought maybe push that vocal up a bit.
    Having heard it once, I'm more familiar with it, but still think I'd push that fader up; its a "taste" thing
