bjornpdx Posted November 29, 2020 Share Posted November 29, 2020 The title says it all. Very well done. The song gets a bit predictable until 2:05 where you have a nice breakout. Great guitar playing. I'd suggest bumping up the tempo a few bpm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 As I have said before anything that starts involuntary furry paw tapping along with a gentle furry head nodding by bar two has to be half reasonable. Nice easy gentle grooving. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyB01 Posted December 1, 2020 Share Posted December 1, 2020 I'd agree with Bjorn on the tempo, possibly up the drums a notch and maybe add a tad more drive to that lead guitar - but it's all a question of taste and these are minor crits. I do like it more when the guitar gets busy in the middle section (good chops btw). Well done overall. Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSband Posted December 1, 2020 Author Share Posted December 1, 2020 Thanks Andy. If I upped the tempo I'd have to re-record everything, I don't think I want to start over. Driving the amp more that would be easy, I'll check that out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhonoBrainer Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 I like the overall mix quality and I didn't find it too slow. It does have some room for a bit more improv (I like the lead guitar section) - but I kept waiting for Herb Alpert or or David Sanborn to come in and blow it up! Also, just a thought, in certain sections you have two guitars and a keyboard playing more or less very similar parts at exactly the same time, in the 1:30 - 1:50 section for example. That choice might be where you could switch it up a bit? Overall, it lives up to Smooth and maybe just needs a bit more Fuze? Just a bit, more gratuitous solo noodling in the gaps would be my thought YMMV of course! cool tune! cheers, -Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KSband Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 I know what you're saying, the guitar and keys fight with each other a bit. I thought about just having the keyboard only on that part. Thanks for the comments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did that with a song once, fixed the tempo but the second one was never as good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
