craigb Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Good to see a couple of those names in there! The only thing missing is one of those trippy videos by James. ? I consider this a song of hope for the future as I sit, stuck in my cave... ? 1
bjornpdx Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Took me a minute to get over my claustrophobia attack seeing that picture. Wow you guys know how to make a song sound Epic. Love the vocal delay and the guitar accomp and solo. Excellent drums. Very catchy chorus. Nicely done! 1 1 1
daryl1968 Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 This came out brilliantly mate. Great performances all round. 1 1

Wookiee Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Nice to see/hear Bitflipper on a track. I like the delay on the vocal what did you use? Production as ever is good, nice mix with space for all, perhaps a little more presence on your Bass would be cool Ed, I like to hear all the bass. Nice job chaps very prog. 1 1
Zargg Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 Thanks for the positive responses, folks. The delay used is Soundtoys Echoboy with a 1/2 note ping pong delay. 1
bitflipper Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I think you should consider an alternate version with Zargg's vocal sung in German. Duct tape some fireworks to his boots and then make that video. 3 3
Douglas Kirby Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 This is a cool hard rocker - I enjoyed the listen. I thought the lyrics were quite impressive, and the arrangement of the song works very well. The lead guitar and synthesizer sections were nicely done. It's a fine mix to my ears - the separation and depth are there. 1
mark skinner Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 A+ everywhere. I loved the Power in the choruses and especially the guitar break leading into the synth. Great job Great mix. mark 1
KSband Posted October 28, 2020 Posted October 28, 2020 I liked the synth and guitar solos, very cool. 1 1

Ken mixed his vocals, against a mix of the song, the way he wanted them and sent me his project and I imported it exactly as it was into my final mix project. I only had to set the level to sit in the pocket. Thanks for the listen and we're glad you liked it.

Thanks @bjornpdx for the very kind words and listen. I also think Dave's piano is the real hidden gem in this one. 1
Bajan Blue Posted October 31, 2020 Posted October 31, 2020 Great Job everyone - as Wookie says, very prog!! Some real nice playing all round - love the guitar parts from James and Dave's keyboard parts fit just right. Nigel 1
