your the best

It stopped dead in middle. Trying to finish.

Cool track i like it alot.

Simple, haunting and beautiful!

Wonderful track here. Love what you did with her vocal. Such a fan of her voice :) The music is incredible!

Ahh this is really nice and smooth. great usage of spacial mixing, love the rhodes like piano, and that style of guitar is one of my favorites (Tumbleweed, Chris Rea, Neal Hubbard etc). ahh an oboe as well. fav'd and d'loaded (Thanks) this is a special song!

I've primarily listened to Heavy Metal for nearly my entire 40 years on this planet. But, this track almost acts as a siren attempting to lure me into a strange, beautiful new world that is quite possibly the polar opposite of the one, in which I currently live. I'm not resisting. This piece is, for a lack of better terms, lovely. I've added it to my collection. Thank you for sharing it with us.

"I have been enjoying your guitar work so much that I am actually looking for more natural guitar sounds in my stuff."

Thanks. Guitar playing is the way I express myself best and feel I have the most control over any musical element. Flowing playing generally comes quite easily to me even though I don't really practise or play that much.

As regards you getting more natural guitar in your stuff: I guess nothing beats real playing, with all its nuances and timing errors and idiosyncracies.

But have you tried any sampled-based guitar instruments as well as guitar VSTs?

I don't use them much (for the reason that I don't really need to) but they can be cool. Though when I do use them, I don't get the timing and feel and expression that I get from my actual guitar playing. It's more that I turn a guitar sound into more of a processed sound that complements all my synth stuff.

But maybe some of these guitar VSTs would suit you. There's one from Sugar Bytes that I haven't tried though they generally make good software.

As regards bands taking years to make one album, have you noticed that in the 60s bands used to knock out at least one album a year? More than one full album a year was not uncommon. These days one every few years is more common. I find the reasons for this quite fascinating. First is that studio time was more expensive then so I guess most albums were done by bands who regularly played live and then just went in the studio for a shortish time and knocked it out, without spending ages on their sound. More sounds available these days so more time spent tweaking!

Anyway, good track. I enjoyed listening again.

...yes now im chilled...very good - my personal nr.1 chillout track

Hello. More good work. Got much better on 0:37 when that pad came in.

Some suggestions (that's what I prefer to do rather than just gushing praise, especially when something is already good):

1:06 that little guitar fill is good but slightly odd and then continues maybe slightly too long to interfere with her vocal.

First beat and bass that comes in sits well though maybe that hat is a bit too loud/prominent. May also be slightly too harsh a sound.

Ah, 2:54 we get to hear much more of that guitar. Like that bit.

Very deep throbby bass (which locks with the kick). Like it when it goes higher on 3:57.

Good, dreamy pad movements. Effective piano punctuating the vocal from time to time.

I know it's hardly a short track but I sort of wish that the vocal could have gone somewhere else - maybe got more insistent and intense so built up to something. But if JJ didn't do that, fair enough and I guess you're just working with what you've got.

Don't let my minor criticisms and desires put the idea in your head that I didn't like this. Lots to like here and my stuff has quite a bit in common with it. Lots of good taste and skill and beauty in here. As I always say, I just want things that are good to be even better. Most of the time, I believe that is possible!

Well done.

Everything about this track captivated me the elements was well thought out i have nothing but love for this track its def going in my ipod. if it can bring a emotion out of me when im listening to it (which is hard) wins me over! i have nothing but positive to say this is definitely a winner. much respect.

Hypnotic track...JJ's voc is flowing and waving and your pro music and mix is a good base for it...like that you write SONG, in the meaning of that not too many production here...
Thanx for the upload, congrats for both of you...

Danke

Hello ....

Undoubtedly, you are also an absolute master in what you produce. And I sincerely believe ....
I have already expressed in other pages, this that I thought, of the good work here.....

I wish you a great end of the year .... Cheerful and friendly.
