Thanks, Bjorn, I'm grateful for your feedback. Yeah, it's panned pretty hard on one side to begin with. I'm kind of clumsy with the automation. Thanks for listening!

I knew there was some kind of magic juju going on in there. You have such rich lush vocals in all of your tunes. It must be the brand of tequila. 😁

I just gave your new mix a listen to mark, I think it's improved although I think it was pretty damn good to begin with. I'm struck by just how good the vocals are in this. You should be proud of the work here.

I posted another mix to try to get the vocals to pop a bit more. To get there I had to re-record some less than decent vocal parts. Thanks for listening and helping me get this song into a workable state, guys.

Pretty great track, great lyrics! Guitar and vocals rock, really enjoyed it

This has a really strong 70's/80's prog feel, like a unique blend of Yes, Boston, Head East and Styx. Except of course it's also totally Bat's Brew, but whatever it is, it's rocks. Stellar production and I really love the vocals. You're going to have to do a class on your approach to vocals one of these days. Great acoustic/electric interplay and the break was worth a Grammy all by itself. One of my Bat's Brew favorites!

I missed this one the first time around, I don't know how because it's utterly badass! Very strong Rainbow/Dio vibe, and that's a great thing. Sounds very good with lovely bits of ear candy here and there for the discerning listener. Tthe performances by all of you are awesome. Well done!

Thanks for weighing in, Steve, your crits are always well written and extremely useful. I'm really gratified to make your favorites list! 🥳 I'm happy to try as many mixes as it takes, my hearing is impaired so I don't really have a lot of confidence in anything I do. @garybrun did offered to do a mix for me quite a while ago on my song, Brand New Day. It was really good but l forgot I had it after life intervened and I had to change my focus. I need to find that and post it here, as I recall he did an excellent job, and did things that never occurred to me to do. He's quite good!

Thank you for your thoughtful comments and for taking the time to listen, I appreciate it! I conceived this song as an amplifier-driven primal scream that, once out of you, allows you to get up and keep going. I very much like the idea of rocking my way through it, that's a great way to put it 😀

Thanks, Mark, really appreciate your feedback and your kind words.

I very much liked this track, and I particularly enjoyed the plank thing, nice to hear you bust one out and bang on those wires.

Steve, trombone sounds awesome but the guitar/keyboard/bass interplay in the solo is just great. Really enjoyed this one. The bass tones are really good. This song puts me in mind of a scene from a musical, and when it ended I was waiting for the next number after the scenery shift. Really fine work!

Really beautiful performances and mix and a great song choice. Love it!

Bump for a new mix. Yay!

Nice! A thoughtfully crafted pop rock love note with a huge mix. Great bit of work, Nigel, hope your wife is pleased. I wrote my wife a song and she didn't talk to me for days.

I'm a big fan of dirges and this is a good one. To be honest, it sounded less like a dirge than a somber movie score. Your technique sounds pretty darned good! Nice, clean notes and I don't think I heard a single clank in there. But overall, the mix was lovely and it is an engaging piece, mission accomplished!

Has anyone tried Sonar on MacOS/Parallels/Windows on ARM? I have a MacBook Pro M4 that I'd love to try Sonar ARM64 on.

My money is on the USB cable. They go bad all the time for no reason whatsoever. I'll be happily working along, and all of a sudden they start picking up my cell phone's chatter.

Lovely song, Michael! Your vocals are really nice and perfect for the song. I can hear a bit of noise hear and there and maybe some room noise just before the drums kick in, but I love the organic feel of the track too. Can't wait to here more of your solo work!

I think this is my new favorite Baselines tune! Such clever lyrics, I laughed out loud, both at the lyrics themselves and how you managed to make them fit like a glove into the melody. I also really enjoyed the musical interludes between verses and after the really excellent solo. I loved the chorus, really very clever, and the mix is so clean. I guess you can I really enjoyed this one, Steve!

I don't know what any of that means, but the jam sounds cool. 😬

I'm not the right guy to comment on the quality of string libraries. I did a song with the SI Strings virtual instrument and thought it sounded super. 😃 That said, an acoustic solo would sound great too.

I use the dark grey screen as well. Using it is not my job but I do like the new UI better. I hope you get to a point where it's usable for you.

Really nice, the mix is a treat, very smooth. Loved the percussion and the interplay between bass and drums. Excellent!

I really like this, lovely vocals with a sweet melody and a very cool rhythm. The autotune is more of a a style these days and you use it to good effect, never overdone. The mix is sublime. I thought the guitars, while relatively subtle, add so much texture that they almost push this track into another genre. Really stellar effort. And oh yeah, it needs a guitar solo. 😁
