from the album "Stay"

thinkin' about the 1st powder day to come....


"First Tracks"

Sun is shining through the trees,
Diamond dust is everywhere
Cold air tastes just like a breeze
In the desert solitaire

Now I’m standing at the edge,
Pulling down like gravity
Champagne powder and the butterflies,
Falling so happily

First Tracks, Cold Thrill, Wind and Tree
Big Grin, Addict’s mind, Follow me.

Suddenly I can see
Wide open fields below,
Speed is my friend
Where I want to go

Straight down the sun will shine,
It will carry me
Down the spine,
Stone Free.

Pillow drift and butterflies,
Champagne on ice
Cold smoke can dry your eyes,
Knee deep is so nice.

I listened and it sounds awesome. Your selection of of differing left/right distortion tones at the start go together really well. I usually struggle to achieve that.

hey bmarlowe!

thanks for listening to my thing here...

yes, those guitars, are the same guitars, but different amp /cab / mic setups.

plus, i've got two different drive pedals i used, to get those different sounding rhythms and solos left and right.

often times i'll hard pan them, but depending on the drum track, and how wide that gets mixed, i might bring those left/right elements in tighter.

i try to do a headphone mix, and a monitor mix, and split the difference in the panning between them.

some things in headphones just sound downright weird hard panned.
