This is an excellent piece of work, really enjoy the mix and the guitar sound you got going on this. The lead with the verb is such a great use of space. And I really like that you kept it under 5 minutes, wish I could do that!

I really liked the groove on this and with the drums panned to the right it makes for a fine mix and an excellent listen! Timbo

Thanks Kevin, a little too long IMO, but glad you liked the mix.

Here's a new song that took forever to put together. It's a 3-parter about a 25 year old still living the dream in his parents' basement. I'm not the greatest guitarist and would have liked for someone else to play the solos. Sorry but it clocks in at 7 and a half minutes, so it's a significant time investment. Please tell me what you think: Broken Flashback Rhymes phones gone dead, bloodshot eyes staring at tv trying not to think about tomorrow all day new tat on your sleeve, stoked to show it off to your best boys yo momma's been chewing out your ***** since you got up at three so you skateboarded down to the old factory up on main street drained a pint of jack behind the discount liquor store topped it off with the two blues you scored from markymarkjay finally feeling good, finally feeling mighty fine down at the park you seen the popo taking all the tents down now they walking the streets with dirty hands held out for change somebody stole your deck when you took a leak behind the weed shop icy cold and dark and a bummer walk back to mom and day you're living the dream, going on 25 in your parents' basement the future's here and it's darker than *****ing coal on the tv there's 2 rich old guys yelling and pointing fingers wonder which of them's gonna rule the *****ing world up to my ears in cash, benjamins floating down from the sky sitting on my skinny ***** sinking in a cocaine tidal wave busloads of drooling fans looking deader every day there will be no end to my personal carnival of pain high priests in gucci clothes hawking tickets to taylor swift pollyanna waving her broken flashback rhymes canvas of life revived oozing down cracked subway walls all my homeless soldiers slowly marching to hell mom and dad made me = in the back seat of an old chevy they were parked behind = my favourite liquor store life goes round and round = sometimes you hit the jackpot sometimes you hit the skids = and take it from behind not their fault the whole world was sliding into the dumpster the fault lies in the way we're all wired as best as i can tell so yeah i live in my parents *****ing 2 bit basement no hope no life might as well just roll another one mom and dad made me, made me, made me

Really liked the drums on this piece of electronica! The mix leaves so much room for the toms and hats and really works well. Timbo

Now this is a work of art! I'd love to know where you get your ideas from Wookiee cuz I'd pay money to go to that place. A terrific use of delay and space make this an excellent piece. Thanks for sharing, Timbo

Must be some weird combination of VSTs and VSTis that's causing it, since it has never happened except in this song.

In the PRV.

At first I thought I just forgot, but now I'm sure that when I edit a MIDI drum track, save the project, exit and go back in and the changes are not there anymore. Very frustrating! Has anyone experienced this and found a workaround? Thanks, Timbo

That's an excellent recording! Not to mention the playing. Would like to have been in the room to feel the power of a live band, I don't get to do that anymore. Tim

Thanks for listening everyone, I thought it wouldn't get any more plays and disappear into the other side. Hearing a circus carousel sent my brain down the track of writing these particular lyrics - the music came later but it sort of wrote itself. I'd love to know what you mean by different but familiar! Timbo

I really enjoyed this one Peter. This is a song that I've loved since it came out and you've done a great cover. With today's vocal processing, your voice sounds fine! It was a good idea to go up when you sang "cars", it drew me into the song. Mix-wise I really liked your drumming, but wasn't entirely happy with the sound, particularly the kick. Was this a close-mic'd kit? Or electronic? I did like the ending, if that was what you were referring to as a change, since I didn't hear the original mix. Thanks for sharing! Timbo

This sci - fi song came to me one day. https://on.soundcloud.com/RHPrpCDgJgQyfbxM7

jack, This was one of your better melodies and sounds. Plus the cool stuff you put in (like at :40, 1:24) and the total mash up at 2:47 ... really pulls the listener into the mix. The flute melody is beautiful but I found the cymbal overpowering in that part. A great ending too!

Wow, never heard of synthesizer V before, it looks and sounds amazing! Tim
