Nope. Good luck tho.

The sting is, I tried to summer the courage to not respond, but alas, the temptation was more than I could copeland with.

Maybe 1x is just a bit cleaner, clearer. To be honest they sound pretty close to me. I think the effectery towards the end of 1x might be improved, and the vocals in 1x seem just a bit clearer? Hard to tell. I like the pulse and the gobs of psychedelia. Cheers, -Tom

Maybe this one did a u-turn and headed back into the womb. ?

Vocals are amazing! Maybe a few more fills in the drum programming? Cheers, -Tom

You are bringin' it with those guitar lines. Just great tone and chops. I did not expect that portomento synth in the middle part. That was nice! My only mix thought might be on those wide panned acoustic guitars, sometimes it feels their strums are coming in just a hair early. You might slide those tracks back just a few nudges as an experiment, does it groove a little easier? I could be all wet on this. Kudos for your song and best of health to you and yours! -Tom

Clang your gear points forcefully against your jam credits!

That llama is so hot, . . . it's molten.

Well good on ya for trying something new. Best of luck in the journey. This song does have an 80's feel to it, at least for me. Strong vocals as usual! Mix was clean as well. Personal reactions to the themes or subjects chosen aren't worth much, but honestly this one didn't really connect with me, sorry. Maybe I'm just remembering the strengths of your more country material. Who cares? One has to grow, or die. Nice job! -Tom

Too bad it wasn't longer. Really good work on this. -Tom

Boy that guy lays back a beat on the vocal . it's a style thing. Nice voice. Cool guitar from Mark no999, welcome back! Super clean mix on my headphones. Cheers. -Tom

I want ice cream. That's a cool beginning to a song. Bill. Very Globetrekkeresque. Love that lane. You have your own thang on it. Cheers. -Tom

It's the cool kakku style. I like it. Sentimental brain, huh? Nothing wrong with that. I like the claps on top of the snare. I think that's what I hear? Cheers, Tom

I like the buildup of instruments and it has a Brian Wilson quality about it. Although that itself is pretty hard to define. Nice one!

Name it "Llama"

This wins the award for Greatest Distance Between Title of Thread, and Thread Content. congrats!

Clearly your fever has turned you vegan.

Despite my best physical effort, I was not able to pull the credit card out of my wallet. I am not worthy.

Did you have to aim your darts lower, to compensate for the thinner atmosphere? Just wondering.

I see a right shoe, so I must be using my left brain.

You turned the shimmer knob up to 11! Really, really nice. Thankfully I listened on headphones. I'm not sure if you could somehow make it better by balancing the piece with more, or stronger, bass elements. Seems like most everything is a wonderful shimmering salad up above 1khz. Would some tasteful croutons of tympany or taiko mess things up? Just a thought . . . Hoping there is a video planned? Good one, Bjorn! -Tom

Gromit is hereby advised to stay off the lsd. Great mix. My toes were tapping, man that drummer is great. It's all well performed, and shout out to the vocal mixing, they blend very well. I like my metal with a heaping helping of prog - thanks for that !!! Sorry no crits. I listened on headphones and got everything clearly. Perhaps some of his cheese had mold spots consumed unnoticed? Very well done, lads! Cheers, -Tom

I wouldn't eat any templeballs before bed, Nepalese or what have you ? Great sing, great fractal, great lead guitar, and absolutely great vocals and vocal mixing with the bgv's . . . this is killer from top to bottom.

Wow, great stuff. I'd call out the section from 1:54 onwards as being especially well mixed. The piano here is just a bit lower in the mix, allowing the entire piece to breathe. I understand a louder piano in the first third, the intro sets the theme and mood perfectly! You might play around with decreasing the piano volume in the middle third, as the strings start doing their things. Maybe it's just the upper treble of the piano that could be softened a bit? I dunno. Very cool chording, very cool piece! Cheers, -Tom

Any opportunity for a Jerry Reed reference must be seized upon . . . !
