SUPAREELS

I have never wanted to air a message so personal so I won't .. I have always felt music comes from the heart ... My guess is we kinda know each other, over these years ... maybe too well., but with ever-out meeting ... My message ... I hear you ? Stay well Steve

Sorry to know about that t ... at 73 and with my history I don't hear so well either... As my right lug is well low, my studio is pumped on the right to give me the same balance ... If I popped my clogs I don't think anyone would get it .. but at that point I wouldn't care LOL All the Best Steve ?

Can't wait .. ( Do I get dibs on the order TeeHee ) ATB Steve

WhOo no dig mate, but godda say it's not what you see .. more what you hear ... I see from the graph the 1 and2k are in scope, strange 'cause I still feel the vox is a little toppy on the 'S' & 'Ts' Just my cans I spose Love ya man ? Steve

You are one talented bloke .. got to say excellent work!! Steve

Great sound here Gary great mix too. Only one crit there seems to be a tad too much high end on the vox .. but. ATB Steve

My mum and Dad used to listen to this stuff back when I was a kid ( I'm 73 now ) ... Took me back to those simpler days, what a great post ..thanks ? ATB Steve

Well produced, I didn't think the vibe was a sad one, plus I agree with Bats that it has a strong Floyd feel... Nice work mate ? Steve

Excellent mix, skill and video ... really enjoyed this one .. thanks for the post ... ( and now I have Les Paul envy ) SRM

Well done M8 ..and good to have you back and well again ? ( Cool look in the bins ) ATB Steve

a BIG thankyou to everyone for listening .. I intend to get a proper mix and new songs later in the year .. but it's really great to have you lot listen and comment ?

Excellent writing Paul. ?

Sorry for your loss

What works ... Just works, as you infer ... ( Your secret is safe with me ... can't speak for the others though LOL )

Hello Paul, What a great question! My approach to songwriting is to try and get my idea down, often before playing anything, in the hope I get the song completed and not left halfway through because I ran out of steam ... not always mind, but for me it works well when I have a half baked idea an need to think what I want my message to portray when it's completed. There have been times when I've been a chorus (words only) and was asked to write the song around it, then this approach works a treat ! Next is to find a way for the lyrics to play out with my ability to play the instrument, often, and certainly of late, using plugs ( NI,EZydrum, keys etc ) to get a bare bones song. At this stage I often read the lyric differently than I first thought and change words to match the rhythm. Then comes the mixing and mastering ... Yes it's a bit like reading a book before watching a movie, but you have to bare in mind, all the content of a song is in you head when listening ( unless a video runs along with the work ) ... so there is never disappointment and other peoples approach to writing their song is interesting .. you learn and hopefully get better from the experience . Just for the record I did like this one ? ATB Steve

Not sure ( without swooping in ) what you want. If you are a subscriber to Cakewalk DISCUSS you can PM your said helper .... ?

I think the problem here is not understanding computer interfaces with inboard ( in-the -box / outboard instruments) regarding how your said, desktop / laptop .. MAC / PC / deals with it all. Your problem seem to be a quick fix ... IF THAT'S POSSIBLE .....Understanding of drivers with software ,... sound interfaces and Midi controllers ETC , ...most of the guys on this website are extremely versatile with the problems you seem to have .. ... ..BUT, you need to a basic understanding of your goals and said difficulties of where you would like to go with your music ... in a word experience There's no 'easy fix' ... so check out YT for at least some understanding of where you wana go.

Well done Lynn .. But you did have me at the last beat .... Excellent lyrics, but you godda listen to get them cause they are well deep. This one is almost progressive but you still have a Beatles vibe / break, in you stuff ... I may have to take you up on Keg offer ?. Love to do that chorus with you with pint on the amp stack LOL Stay Loose Steve ( BTW just invested in EZKeys on your recommendation Woooa!! )

Hi Paul, I am a lyrics guy, For me I think that the overall song needs work ( as you already know ) but the lyric is spot on. I read through them twice before I listened to the work, and FWIW, I think it's a great message. It can relate to a lot of people with addiction too ... and more .. it's a shame so much talent is hidden away on this site .. Anyway, off the soap box and just to say ..bloody good work, looking forward to the FA ATB Steve

Amazing incite of, what is now the norm. Very depressing to watch David Bowie predict a future that my grankids will have to negotiate ... thanks for the post M8 ..I think ? Steve

Thankyou for listening and comments .. it means a lot ? ATB Steve

All of the above .. with bells on,.... very enjoyable ... One of favs were Santana and this bit of work reminds me of them .. all good Steve

Gotcha MOJO back then ! In spades !! I can hear Bowie doing this one ... I really like the mix, in that the drums aren't right up front ... for me it was worth the wait, if only for the raunchy vid ?. ATB Steve

Really BIG thanks guys I'm made up! ATB Steve
