freddy j Posted March 12, 2023 Share Posted March 12, 2023 Brilliant!!! Psychedelic sounds for the new millennia. Love all the change-ups and transitions musically. There is a lot going on in this song at one time but it all makes sense and fits. The lyrics might seems vague but with just a wee drop of thought they make sense and relate to worst uses of chaos! The use of the synths, vox apparatus, etc. are beyond my limited comprehension but doggone -- it all sounds great. Excellent work my friend!

daryl1968 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Hi Lynn Firstly, sorry it's taken me so long to have a listen. Sounds like you had fun with this mate - some nicely quirky sounds and effects. Lyrics have a psychadelic, almost Lucy in the Sky quality. Backing vocals are excellent. Mix is very good - minor nit but the vocals maybe a tad too loud and appear to have a ducking effect on the rest of the music? (I am recovering from covid and my ears ain't the best so that maybe me) Very cool mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had a lot of fun with this, and it just fell into my lap, so to speak. You get it about the words; I intentionally was vague so as not to ruffle too many feathers. There is going to be a big change soon, as Markno999 rewrote the drum tracks, and he improved the overall feel very much. Less busy. I'll talk to you soon.

I appreciate your kind words, and I'll take the vocal levels into account when I remix this. As stated above, Markno999 rewrote the drums, so you should hear an improvement very soon. Later, my friend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynn Wilson Posted March 19, 2023 Author Share Posted March 19, 2023 Today I have posted "Chaos Ravine 2.0" thanks to a huge contribution from Markno999. He and I both have SD3, so he was able to create a MIDI file with a new kit and new grooves for this song. He really hit the nail on the head, and the only original tracks I kept were the pre-choruses. I think it is an improvement, as drum tracks have always been my Achilles heel. I owe him and all of you who have contributed a huge thank you! It is here: https://soundclick.com/share.cfm?id=14563308, as well as in the OP.

Johnbee58 Posted March 19, 2023 Share Posted March 19, 2023 Hi Lynn! I like the tune very much. Great production all around. I'd cut the volume back on that one synth though. Just a bit. Seems to overpower the rest of what's going on. ?John B 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure which of the synths you're referring to exactly, but I'll listen for it. Easy change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've learned so much from this experience. As for the ending, I too often fade out during a chorus or solo, so I decided to just let this come to a halt, in keeping with the subject matter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regards When I play the two versions back to back, I'm floored by the substantial improvement of your drum tracks. Drums have always been my Achilles heel, but this experience has been a real eye opener for me. I'm always happy to have an opportunity to learn! Many thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Guy Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Lynn, Cool project for more than one reason. First off, you have something to say, and, it is said in an interesting/original way, with a melody that takes unexpected twists and turns. Also, the instrumental part is strong with shifting rhythms and textures. Nice guitar lines. Cool stuff all the way around. Cheers, Bert 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Walsh Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Hey Lynn, your work is always so creative and this one is certainly no exception. Thoughtful lryics and an unusual chord progression kept me engaged sll the way to the end. Loved the synths and the jangly guitar, mixsounded just fine to my aging ears. Great work! Loved At the End of Forever too, great tune! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm looking forward to hearing your latest song, and thank you for mentioning "At The End Of Forever". Both songs were written within days of each other, so they kind of go together.
