DeeringAmps Posted March 22, 2023 Share Posted March 22, 2023 What is that noise at 1:39? Like the way you changed things up every time thru. Your song, your production; but some of the non traditional "noises" in Kontakt; maybe they'll grow on me... ? t Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbraner Posted March 22, 2023 Author Share Posted March 22, 2023 Hi Tom - thanks for listening There's a few things going on there - some of them are from this guy in Ukraine who made some field recordings. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

treesha Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 Good song, enjoyed it. Do you ever sing on your songs? At the stop at about 1 minute, put some reverby or delay stuff in so it doesn’t seem like the song is ending. Like the unexpected changes of parts and moods, the mix seems balanced over here. Sometimes the guitar seems very slightly muddy. I agree with you calling it a jazzy, rockish song, at some parts more one that the other, and with some abstract bits too. I like the ending section work wish there was more of that. Good job Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbraner Posted March 24, 2023 Author Share Posted March 24, 2023 Hi treesha, Thanks a lot for listening and for your comments. I just do instrumentals - I like it this way And that thing at 1:00 is *supposed* to sound like the song is ending - it's all part of the fun 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
treesha Posted March 24, 2023 Share Posted March 24, 2023 I think I do about half instrumentals, so I get it! Yes its fun for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bajan Blue Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 Hi - good track enjoyed the listen - I also heard what tom did at 1.39 - sounded a bit odd, but as tom said, your track!! Nigel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbraner Posted March 26, 2023 Author Share Posted March 26, 2023 Hi Nigel, Thanks a lot for listening and for your comments. I think what you're both referring to is a noise kind of like a record scrathching or something "broken". It's just a noise - among other noises Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynn Wilson Posted March 26, 2023 Share Posted March 26, 2023 John, having heard a number of your songs over the years, I must say that I'm constantly surprised and delighted by you. Maybe because of the unexpected sounds throughout, I really like this song! Your arrangement is cleaver and crafty, which gives it a vibe of unpredictability that I like. As always, your mastery of great guitar tones speak volumes. Keep it up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FreeEarCandy Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Yeah I get it. Trying to push some boundaries. That's cool. Got to have fun and cross a few yellow lines. That's what made the 70's so great and that's sort of where this took me. Good stuff, John. Follow your heart. I enjoyed your adventure! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
