Very laid-back and soulful, Steve! Particularly in the first third of the track I really felt like it was perfectly set up to take a r&b lead vocal part (i.e., a fully developed melody line). The problem, of course, is finding a singer who could do justice to that and who would be willing to collaborate. I, too, would be interested in hearing where you got the vocal samples which were excellent and the sax part was really well done. I can never get a realistic sounding sax line with my virtual instruments.

Hi Eric...the sax and lead guitar are from a VST called Purity and they do sound good in a limited range. They start to sound crappy 2 octaves above middle C as I think all synthasized "real" instruments do. The vocals are free samples from an online composition site called Soundation which fitted quite nicely luckly! Finding a singer is a a real challenge as an amature musician doing this as a hobby but it would be very rewarding!
Kind regards

Hello Steve ....

I rather not go into all the details that my predecessor noted here .... but I agree with him when he wrote: "You really are one of the best and MOST consistent track makers on this site" ... .

This track is still a beautiful proof. Everything is perfectly in place and well orchestrated.

This really is excellent and perfect.

Hi Dan. Thanks for your great comments...I do like this one a lot but you know the more you listen to it the more you feel you could improve it. I think perhaps some piano touches could help marry the sax and guitar.
Thanks again

Steve

You really are one of the best and most consistent track makers on this site. More good stuff here.

Kicks off with a good, solid beat and then various keyboard and bass stuff that you always make your own.

Where are you getting these vocals from?

Sax I think is a VST and sounds good.

1:32 synth/wah guitar is bizarre but very cool and unexpected and unusual in this sort of track. Maybe it's Rob Papen guitar software. It's my favourite part.

Also some other guitar parts over the top, in addition to the pad.

It's all sitting nicely with those keyboard chords as the anchor but I'm wondering if it'll build to anything. No, have a drumless breakdown instead.

Then beat returns with a sax solo. Good, soaring emphasis from the vocals though I guess the track is pretty much the same as the first half. Might have been nice to make the drums bigger and heavier, just to make things more intense.

Fadeout ending is OK but perhaps you'll say it's crap and come back and finish it off in a day or so, as you did last time.

Overall, I certainly liked it but didn't love it. Maybe I was hoping for a bit more grit or edge or something. But it's very solid, groove-based, emotive chillout music so certainly something to be proud of.

Hi SN...you honour me with your opening comments and as I respect your honesty, thanks. The track in my mind as with the title was two people together and then one leaves thus the break in the middle. THe first part is a Gminor chord with a C to F bass whereas the second part is a Gminor chord witha D# to F bass thus sounding sadder. The RP rhythmn guitar was to indicate sex in a cheap porno sort of way! I need to learn guitar as a real lead guitar could have taken the second half to a more edgy finish as you say as VST's are really limited in range without staring to sound cheesy. The vocals are free samples from an online composing site called Soundation. The only change I would make is to add piano to support the limited note range in the second part between the sax and guitar.I do like the faded end in this one as it represents a disapearence into the distance. Thanks again
Steve

Description : Sounds of the sea and trippy acidy washes with a cool beat and some live acoustic guitar. Written in Cubase with live guitar and keys etc. The sound of the sea and birds was recorded on the beach where I used to live. After moving to the city one sunny day I was telling stories to a friend about living by the sea and started making this track.

Description : I used some new "Anthem" pickups from L.R. Baggs on my Martin acoustic to see how it performed, and it definitely beat my expectations. Captured the sound perfectly as I needed.

Anyhoo, this song is almost a prayer, hence the repetitiveness of the verses. As Christians, we believe that God will one day return and take away every suffering and all evil for good; in that regard, this song is almost one of waiting too. Very simple, with vocal harmonies and whatnot. Hope you enjoy this as much as I did making it. Made in 13 hours.

Someone else wrote the words, I was just inspired to use them. I only added the "Yeah" and "Amen."

Description : This is a track off of one of my EP's I dropped last year. It is based on True events. Sometimes when people finally take a second in life to slow down and breathe in..... The oxygen is deflated and it's too late. Take your time people, because time is what differs a good decision over a bad one. Life is precious!

Description : So a guy buys a nice guitar at a pawn shop but returns it a few days later after waking from a sound sleep to hear it playing by itself. When he tells of his experience he is shocked to learn the owner had actually died while playing it. Is it fantasy or truth? Is the guitar in this track that very same guitar? Its all part of the mystery and fun of Halloween !
EDIT: modified ending to a deeper voice

Description : A progressive journey incorporating deep ambient chillout, swing jazz, hip hop, d'n'b, trance and a slight touch of acid with a thousand ninjas battling in space. Features a great deal of my lead slide resonator guitar playing. Also a whole load of synths, programmed acoustic drum kits and manipulated drum loops, big basslines, regular electric guitar, vocoded guitar parts and bass guitar (distorted right at the end). If you like deep chill, far out soaring beauty, fat beats and 170 BPM uplifting slide trance controlled mayhem, you might just get into this. In my heaven there is an endless supply of honey mangoes (an exquisite beauty of the fruit world) and even more slide guitar. A 1,000-year-long version of this track plays there on a loop (long enough not to get bored of it) but here I offer you the Earthly 11 min version. You must be very good to be accepted into my heaven to hear the full thousand year version so best start now. It may be heaven's main theme tune but it's not above criticism so feel free to let me know what you think of it. Maybe you prefer the soundtrack in hell. I hear it's pretty badass...
