Wow, this is very creative and original. It's really interesting and off the beaten path -- and I mean that in the most positive sense. Your musical imagination is really impressive, for example when you did the keyboard solo section, I started thinking about Zappa from the Tinsel Town Rebellion album. Your vocals and musical voicings really capture my attention.  I really enjoyed this. It is a musical treat.

Hi Jack

Nice work Jack - I liked the synths in this one - and your mixes continue to improve.

I liked the lyrics as well.

This sounds overall real good to me. 
Only criticism ,if you don’t mind, is both the beginning and end. 
The beginning sounds like something got chopped off before the first note. The end the bass is leaking after the last note. 
And the riff is not interesting enough to have it repeat that many times. Either shorten it or add some ear candy.

No they don't chop beginnings, but Cakewalks export can. I just ran into this yesterday so I had to re export and give it a bit more space, The real start of the song was at 3:00 so I set for  2:04 but I had to use 2:01 or it chopped it off, just like yours did. This is why I always use a Wave editor to top and tail, but I was just posting to Sound Cloud so I could proof my mixes on my phone etc.  The Bass ending part you can fix by slip editing the end of the bass track.

the echo suits your voice well.    I liked the primary motif. very addictive.  could have ended at 3'55" or so though.

[Old Joad]

Great Job, lots of very cool bits?

[mark skinner]

I Loved this one Jack. The change at 1:45 was brilliant! A Lot of Great sounds in this.  Highly impressed with the mix as well.   Nice ending .           mark

[Kevin Walsh]

Great mix! Everything sounds pretty great and your vocals are a really good fit for this piece.  +1 on the Zappa reference. Great instrumental bridge, very cool moves there, and the ending was very cool.
