I could totally see this used in a movie scene. It's brilliant and very evocative. On headphones I heard some digital clipping artifacts occasionally? Like where two abutting files weren't crossfaded. One example @ :42. It might juist be a Soundcloud think, I dunno. Might be worth a check for those. super cool piece, sorry to hear the movie didn't work out. cheers, -Tom

Actually we don't all know that. But I do now, many thanks! Rogue on the Unix server had absolutely no sound at all, and was the best computer game ever invented !

So even though it appears like a fraud, a scam, a ripoff . . . . I'm still feeling pissed that Spaghetti Western is $59 . . .

That's how I got Portal, from BF, for $29, although it took exactly 6 months afterwards. Still MF followed through on it, kudos! I

Some of these are so old, the dinosaurs posted them on MySpace.

Can't believe you bypassed the box office gold that is Areefa Plankton

Muskokiaan!

heh heh!

Just in time for Father's Day . . . Spaces I owners can upgrade to Spaces II for $184 . . . that's a whopping 116% ON!!! Or you can buy Spaces II outright for a 60% discount, just $149. But what fun is that, Dads? Seriously, this continues to be the stupidest thing I have ever seen in plug-in pricing. Happy Father's Day to the Dads out there!

Which bear is the most condescending? Pan. DUH!!!!!

Fun fact! Byrnjolfur Sveinsson of Iceland is a huge fan of the band R.E.M. , and likes to sing along!!! "That's me on the Kronur . . ."

Yeah but they spelled crazy with a "k" and it's all caps, so you gotta respect that.

If they can't figure it out, they shouldn't breed!

If it were me, I'd only bother to reinstall those plugins as they presented themselves in the projects I was working on. Spread the pain. But if you are a commercial operation or working with other people, that doesn't really work . . .

Alas no, but I bought Taupe and it's a good master bus eq . . .

Elephant Man, far right? Just wondering . . . and Tom Russell appears to be The Most Interesting Man in the World? and there's a huge-***** sailfish on the wall in a diner? and they drink Mexi beers but he's having a Roy Rogers or a melonball? and of course, an accordion??? and it's "Haley's" not the correct "Halley's" ? Exactly what the Haley is going on here??!!?

well what is the one Acustica plugin that I could use on the master bus to make a jazz funk electro mix sound like magic?

I really love the groove and the chord progression! Mix-wise, the bass is right up front . The drums are way back. So you might take the reverb distance down on the drums, and see how that sits better? Worth a shot. that's a cool production, nice job!!! -Tom

@David Sprouse - Ah, two great references! I was aiming for Caravan Palace! But I could not ever be that cool or techie slick. But that was the target. I'd love to watch whoever edits the Caravan Palace songs . . . highly recommended! @DeeringAmps - I appreciate it, many thanks! @MBGantt - thanks so much, glad it was fun! And behind fun is a little bit of self-indulgence! @Lynn - thanks Lynn, I'm so glad you liked it . . . perhaps a bit much going on in spots? . . . there could be pruning I think. @Old Joad - thanks for the comment, and old Berlin avant-garde music sounds good to me, are there any recommendations I could check out? thanks again!

Avant garde Asian Mozart goes to the circus. That was a good listen! It held my interest all the way to the end. It was fun trying to hear the little stuff underneath the big stuff - nice job there! FWIW you might consider dropping the shaker volume just a bit in the first section. And throughout, the transient attack on the kick drum beater is throwing off a percussive hit artifact that sounds a bit too much like a digital clip. If that makes any sense? Not really a problem, just an observation. The steel drum sample is great and well used! What did you use for that? cheers, -Tom

Perhaps it's a Southern California thing. Precursor to Joe Exotic? Worthington Ford, but also Worthington Chrysler/Dodge Tell'em, Cal!

@Paul Bush - thanks, I'm wondering if you mean you actually jogged? In which case, sorry it was 5:50. Thanks for the comment! @bjornpdx - you know that "too many ne-ne-ne" thought occurred to me as well! Thanks for the confirmation! @garybrun - good observation, there is a lot going on in the lower mids. And whenever I put it on my good monitors, it sounds acceptly good! But when I move to headphones, it sounds like *****. So I try to add more to an already full 300hz so I can get bass in the headphones, and it turns the listen on the good monitors to mud. Something has gotta give! Thanks for the comments! @90 dB - many thanks for the listen, glad you liked it!

I really like the arrangement and your vocal is always very well performed and presented. Some voices just have more "listenability" thank others, and yours has it by the truckload. I'd say for a crit, you might solo just the hi hat, snare and the rhythm guitar together, and see if you hear any slight timing discrepancies? Your rhythm g is maybe played just a bit more straight-time than the drums are shuffling - I don't know, might be worth a check. I know I couldn't tell unless I soloed it. It's a catchy melody and the song overall has a "classic" feel to it. cheers, -Tom
