Nice work - I was pleasantly surprised when the guitars/bass came in string.

Great groove to this, nice guitar tones.

Nice job.

Very nice song. I think it could use some more high end.

Nice mix on this song - sounds good.

Thank you for the listen and comments! Steve

You guys all gave me confidence in leaving the lyrics out. Thanks for listening!

Hi Bjorn thank you very much! Yes, I tried with the lyrics but it was just too much. I'm happy with the way it is now. Steve

Please let us know how those work out. Do they come out as lossless, or more like mp3?

You still are losing some above 6K.

Thank you for listening and providing feedback!

If you are satisfied with mp3 reference tracks, you will be neglecting the higher frequencies. I don't remember for sure, but I think the same thing holds for ripped versions from CDs. Most people won't notice, particularly if you only supply mp3 versions to distribution points. But the more your ear progresses over time, the more you will notice the difference between mp3 and wav.

Time to lighten up a bit Duncan. The material he is looking for can be found for free anyway. This is not the 'piracy' that is causing the losses. Better to concentrate on other major offenses.

The vocals sound fine to me. It's a good sounding song. The one thing I heard in my head was something similar to the harmonica in the beginning of Sprinsteen's The River. Not necessarily on harmonica - I actually heard it in my head as a single note (rather than chords) pattern going on in the background with a bunch of reverb on it. I like the song and the production. What do you think of the new Sonar (I wasn't aware that it had been released) - do you like it, is it worth getting? Steve

Another high quality creation. I had to look up a bunch of the references - wow! Steve

Thanks for the comments Mark. The panning keyboard was part of Z3TA, which I think was a part of Cakewalk before Bandlab.

Thanks a lot Jack!

Ha! That's awesome - love it. Thanks for letting me know!

Thanks Nigel - I've been convinced to leave this as it is.

Hi KS - thank you - that seems to be what most people think, so the song will stay as an instrumental.

I really tried to add a vocal to this - had some good lyrics, but it just didn't work. Seems as if this will stay an instrumental after all. https://baselines.com/?p=7113 On June 20 2024 I added a video link for this song.

Thank you! It's not often I break out the ukulele, but when I do, it's a lot of fun!

HA! Wish I was, it looked like such a cool scene when I was younger, those big eyes and miniskirts!

Thanks Wookiee - she never asks me where I've been all night.

Thank you Nigel!
