SUPAREELS

Thanks Nigel .. means a lot when I consider your work ! ATB Steve

Hi David, I lived and worked in London for more years than I care to mention before moving to the suburbs and then retiring here in Devon. But London is my real home, although it changed so much as I grew up ( like so many other capitals ). I really did see the changes described in my words and in 2019 I wrote a poem called 'The morning sun in old London town' .. bit of a mouthful so I changed it to 'The London way' in this work as a song after a visit to the Tower of London with my grand kids. Not musically my best but I think I caught the feel of the place .. well to me anyway ? I am glad you liked it ? Take care ATB Steve

https://youtu.be/yCefNshhfGc Not really my thing but this is a re-post as it seems better quality ... I think

Hi Lynn and all your mates who made this happen, thoroughly enjoyed this bit'o'work and the video is impressive ... so much so it could be a professional mainstream job. I think as Jack C has noted there are a few, lets say, timing issues here and there, but this issue of bees is an extremely serious one ! Your message should be well read / listened to, if people take the time to read up about this issue and others like it and what it means to our ecosystem then you sir, have completed your best work ever. Hope that's not too heavy .. but ATB Steve

Still a bit creepy though LOL

Already been there .. another enjoyable piece ... and I'm honored thanks David ? ALB Steve

Love this classic chord/guitar rift .. please put some words with this to bring on the tears. It's a flower in the rain growing on stone with out a place to call a home .. there you are ..a start LOL Love your guitar playing ... so much feeling SupaReels

As usual I'm taken by the maths in this piece. I look forward to a longer set with a title like The Tortoise & the Hare, I believe your music could paint a fantasia kind of feel .. Just an idea .. ish. I continue to love your work because I wouldn't know where to start so I find it engaging and different ... in a good way. Thanks for the post David Stay safe Steve

Thankyou for the comment Paul .. it isn't my thang either so I'm knocked out with the feedback .. must'a caught you fellas on a good day ? ATB Steve

Thankyou Makke for your comment, I have a long way to go with this kind of stuff but it's encouraging with this kind of feedback. Steve

Note perfect ..and I have to say the guys here are spot on in that this could be the great Hank Marvin ! Thanks for the post, really enjoyed it ?? How about 'Apache' for your next rendition .. it was my first 45 record when I was a kid LOL Steve

Thanks for the excellent feedback and your observation regarding the 'airy sub-rumble' is spot on! It is embedded in the BBC sample and difficult to hide, even with a HPF ... but I'm trying EQ'ing now and if that doesn't work I'll just use another sample. Thankyou again for the feedback Tom. ATB Steve

Thanks mate, it's not something I would think would appeal to you, so your comment is well taken. Haven't been here a lot just lately and not seen stuff like 'black dog' from you, wondered if all is well in your camp ... hope so .. take care Lynn and stay well Steve

Might be free stuff but the talent isn't .. love to do this piece live on the street .. ? ATB Steve

Thankyou so much mate, as said it's not my normal stuff but maybe I could get into it .. we'll see ? All the best Steve

Thankyou for the comments, all of which I will address on a revisit . As said, when it comes to this stuff I am a newbie so I'm knocked out with your post ? ATB Steve

Hi Bjorn, I think overall this piece is mesmerizing but I do feel it's unfinished. I think using the same drum pattern all the way through is a great idea but it should change, just a little to keep the listener engaged with the vox, the flute is also used a little too much and I feel it could be made more interesting if you altered the melody a tad. I have most of NIs samples and there is a way of putting more 'feel' into the overall sample ( not sure if your keyboard has after touch as this could assist in this respect) As you are aware I listen to your work, and have done with pleasure over the years and along with others on this site I always enjoy your tandem videos. I really liked this bit of work and as you know I'm no expert advising on instrumentals so if you don't wanna revisit this you won't break my heart ? Stay well my friend Steve

Thankyou for the feedback John, I am glad you liked it. Steve

Thanks mate ..for the record it's all BBC samples other than the NI NOIRE piano sample. I think the mixing is off a bit but I'll play with it some more .... maybe? Stay well Steve

Thanks David ...I might not do another one but I really appreciate you listening ? ATB Steve

Thanks Nigel ? ATB Steve

Thanks mate, it's really a question of me getting older now and the fact that due to Covid it has been very quite in my toy room .. no work at all. As said I recently purchased a Komplete S88 to replace my Nectar 88 and it comes with a load of new sounds/samples ( I worry I may die before I get through them all ! LOL). There are so many really great instrumentals, yours among them, and although I am a words guy I thought I'd have a bash. I really like David Sprouse's stuff too as it invokes my creative edge. Your comments are always well received my friend so look after yourself ? Best regards Steve ( BTW It was a piccolo sampled from Spitfire's BBC Orchestra, which I believe has a free version if your interested ..see ya ?)

Cheers Wooks, been looking at Guy Michelmore on the tube. This ain't my strong point so as a newbie my thanks to you for the I/P Stay well Steve

Excellent ..in every way you smashed it mate!!? Getting gushy again sorry Stay Well Steve

Thought I'd have a go with my first instrumental ... I wondered if it's any good so don't spare my feelings ....
