As Gary said, super chill - i like the Piano - shall have to check out Painobook Great job Nigel

hi tom thanks for that great compliment - always appreciated Cheers Nigel

Gary - thanks for that - hope you enjoy the video Nigel

Good song - I actually like the vocal but agree the lead needs to be up a bit on the Chorus - I think with the backing vocals you already have that could sound really good - i know you have no percussion on this but I do think something, even maybe a shaker / tambourine might be cool Thanks for posting Nigel

Brought a little "sunshine" to a very grey and dreary day here in lock down Cape Town - thanks for that Cool stuff Nigel

Douglas - nice track - agree perhaps a little long and a bit muddy in low mids?? Apart from that, cool stuff Nigel

Nice one Freddy but do agree about the delay being too much in places Cool stuff Nigel

Upped my buffer size and it started to work - been playing with it for a while and all seems OK - however I tried it on a couple of dry drums loops against some of my preferred Reverbs (Aether / Valhalla room and vintage) and well it was OK but not better - in fact (I expect because I am very familiar with it and know how to get what I'm after out of it) I preferred both Aether and Vintage Verb on those particular drum loops But definitely worth a try I think Nigel

Thanks - I'll try increasing my buffer settings and give it another go cheers nigel

Hi - I downloaded the trial but unfortunately both Vst2 and 3 versions crash my PC - I'm on Windows 10 Anyone else had any issues? Nigel

Anyone tried this? I'm going to download the trial when I can but might be a few days Nigel

Hi Everyone Into our fifth month of Hard lock down in South Africa thanks to our incompetent Government - anyway I suppose we've had plenty of time to play doing videos! This track, Touch, is again from the album we released in 2017, On Top of the World Hope you enjoy it Nigel

Very nice, like this - great guitar Cool, thanks for posting Nigel

Jon Agree with Tom re the Bass - I would start there and get it sounding better - then balance with the drums. Definitely some panning and EQ needed and the with the vocals, again agree with Tom When I am doing a track - I always start with getting a solid bass drum foundation, then add synths guitars and vocals, so they all sit in the mix and have clarity. Hope this helps a bit Nigel

Thanks so much for that - appreciate the very kind comments Thanks PJH - glad you liked it Cheers Nigel

Hi Makke - thanks really appreciate that - thanks for taking the time to have a listen Cheers Nigel

Hi Leadfoot - thanks, really appreciate the kind comments Nigel Hi Starise The song is actually about some characters from one of my favorite books, The Gormenghast Trilogy. Its a brilliant read if you ever get the chance to grab it Cheers Nigel Cheers Daryl, thanks so much, always appreciate you taking the time to have a watch and a listen Nigel

Oh I like this - haunting. I can just imagine myself sitting on the misty marshes listening to this! Very nice job indeed. I can hear the high register stuff around 2.35 that tom mentions, but on the monitors i was listening to it on, i cant say it really bothered me too much, although i could see this being more intrusive on different/better set ups than mine. Cheers Nigel

Hi Steve Thanks for those great comments, appreciated - we have been working hard trying to make our videos better/more interesting - these days it's so important...unfortunately no one really seems to just listen to music much anymore!! Cheers Nigel

Hi John Love this great job - rarely hear the Thompson Twins on here - I used to live next door to one of the backing keyboard girls - got pretty friendly? with her and saw Thompson Twins live a few times - was a long time ago but only good memories!!! Thanks for posting really enjoyed this Nigel

Grem I use KRK V8 - in Cape Town I don't have a sub - in Barbados I do use a sub - I think on balance, I get a better mix using a sub - pretty sure its the KRK 10" sub - i've had it ages so can't quite remember - i would check for you, but of course...oh yes no flights so STILL stranded in Cape Town!! In fact, I am just doing the first mix on the demos for a new album here in Cape Town - i cut them to CD put them in my car and eviscerated the speakers!!!! to say WAY TOO much sub bass would be a massive understatement!! Keep well Nigel

Hi Daryl Like this, reminds me a bit of something Bonzo Dog would have recorded in their prime - very clever lyrics, i particularly enjoyed them. Nigel

Dean Agree with Gary - this needs bass and does sound boxy. it is also very toppy. If I was mixing this, I would start getting the drum /bass balance and sound sorted out then go from there. Its a good track, just needs a better mix! Good job Nigel

Wow, man what a great track - personally i would want the bass a bit more aggressive sounding , but as I said that's a personal choice. You really can sing my friend As I said, love this, great job Nigel

Hi Grem Really liked this - lyrics and vocals great I thought. I think I do agree on the comments re interaction between bass and drums - not sure what it is but perhaps a second look / mix might just help - it is no big issue, but it might just help an other wise stellar track Great job Nigel
