Douglas Kirby Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Hi Everybody, This song is off my album "Orange Vertigo". I wrote it in the 90's, but I never posted it to this forum. Tell me what you think. Thanks, and here it is: https://www.soundclick.com/html5/v4/player.cfm?songID=13524696 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hidden Symmetry Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Enjoyed it, nice laid-back groove. It has a bit of a Nilsson vibe to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grem Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I like this too. I agree with the Nilsson vibe. Just a nice really laid back vibe for sure. Nice mix, clean throughout. Good vocal performance. 3 minutes ago, amiller said: Hypnotic It does kinda have that effect!! Didn't think of this till I saw his response. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhonoBrainer Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Beach Boys, only cooler. I admit I was waiting for a proper cracking snare to come in at some point. The brush on the cymbal kept its loudness throughout, and I think once you establish that, it could be dropped a tad in volume, maybe as the vocals start. Just a thought. You are a great songwriter. Awesome fade out, really slow, fits the song perfectly. cheers, -Tom 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garybrun Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 I agree... that it reminded me of the Beach Boys.. must be that reverb! ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Joad Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 Cool song, kind of reminds me of a chill OASIS tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freddy j Posted July 29, 2019 Share Posted July 29, 2019 That "hypnotic" guitar riff initially reminded me of Sonny James song -- Young Love (ya, I know -- I'm dating my self). I really like the guitar lead break. Nice one!! I enjoyed it! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jesse Screed Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 DK, it has been inspiring to listen to your music. In the past I have checked out many of your tunes, and will again. Do you do all the instruments yourself? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookiee Posted August 2, 2019 Share Posted August 2, 2019 @Douglas Kirby I enjoyed that, nice simple tune, nicely captured and presented. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Douglas Kirby Posted August 8, 2019 Author Share Posted August 8, 2019 Jesse Screed - Thanks for giving me a listen and for you positive comments. Besides the drums, which are mostly Addictive Drums, I play all the guitar and bass, and sometimes I play keys (I really don't know how to play piano, but I can figure chords out). Thanks again. Wookiee - Thank you very much, I'm glad you liked the song. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
