Walk Away Feat Farisha - Mrwolf14

11th Feb 2015 14:42 - 11 years ago
Description : EDIT: you can download the full album for free http://mrwolf14.bandcamp.com ....... EDIT 19.Feb 2015: according to the inputs from StaticNomad I have removed one "theme". I have also changed the drums (little edit still needed, e.g. the hi-hat in the middle section is a bit too high). Thanks Guys! .......
Second song from my collection. This is actually the second pella I downloaded from Looperman, hence it has to be the second song on my list.
A previous mix was already uploaded here and probably some of you have already heard it, so it's nothing new.
Based on a GREAT vocal hook by Farisha: https://www.looperman.com/acapellas/detail/4337/walk-away-hook-short-by-farishamusic-120bpm-pop-acapella

All the rest played and programmed by your humble MrWolf.
As usual, any input on how to improve this is more than welcome.

Hey, this is awesome! StaticNomad and those like him were just not there when the ##### went down, so they cannot understand. This is so early nineties, and it's awesome. Makes me look forward to the cure live that I will see in June. We love the music you do, deep and wide. Heavy and heart-full. Love it! Faved!

Beautiful. Great vocals. Love the piano intro and grungey phazed out guitar sound which creates the atmosphere. Well done.

Thanks MrSkinny.
The whole track was inspired by Farisha's hook: she has a wonderful voice.

I always enjoy Farisha's stuff. You used her vocals well. I agree with Nomad on the drums issue, but overall well-done!

I like the hook, where you played the guitar man.

Thanks Greg. This gtr theme is strongly inspired by Farisha's line.

Aw gosh your bass, Domenico !... Loved every second of that melancholy, bluesy, blissful listening.
So good to get back here, savour such beautiful moments and feel like a very lucky one...

Greetings, Mr Wolf.

Lots of excellent instrument playing in this but my big complaint, not for the first time, is with the drums. More on that later. Praise first, criticism later.

Farish's vocals here are, as always, excellent. Probably something to do with her being a damn fine vocalist...

I think your initial piano part starts things off well and neatly fits her vocal. Then some quality lead guitar work, with some good bends. A good slow rock intro before the vocal.

Bass has your usual good sound and fluid movement.

2:29-2:42 I would suggest removing. It's the third time we've heard pretty much the same lead guitar part. It's good but I don't think good enough to be heard three times in 2.5 minutes. Just go straight from 2:29 into the 2:42 part of the solo.

So, the drums. Guitar, bass and keys all really sound like they're playing together ie in the same sort of physical space. But the drums really don't and sound kind of like a backing demo track. They're really lacking power and punch and they also maybe have too much reverb or something on them. The playing/programming is OK and works well enough but they just sound too weak to really drive the track the way they could/should.

You're again using the EZ kit (Funk?) I don't much like so that's probably part of the problem. How many EZ kits do you have?

Try EQing, stereo widening the drums etc. Anything to make them more powerful and sound like they're playing in the same space as the other instruments. The drums also don't push the guitar in the solo, as they could do to help make the guitar playing seem more powerful and exciting.

Otherwise, it's really a good piece of music.

As always: if you love these drums, ignore everything I have written.

Hi MrNomad,
Thanks for the detailed comment and for your hints.
- removing the gtr theme at 2:29... good idea! I liked the theme a lot, but it doesn't have to be repeated so much.
- drums... what to say... I am the first one not liking them so much. I started with the Funkmaster kit (which I normally like) and then decided to take a snare from the MetalMachine kit, to give it more power.
Didn't turn out well... :-(
I will try to replace it with a different kit.
Maybe the "rock-solid" one could work here... need to try.

Thanks again for the input!
Ciao, Domenico

Kinda reminds me of Bad Company in the beginning, which is never a bad thing. :) Vocals sit nice in the mix and work well with the music. Over all a solid Rock Track. I enjoyed it. Nice job.

Bad Company? I have to admit that I almost don't know them... I liked Free though, so they should not be too bad :-)
Thanks a lot for the kind words!

Fantastic piece of rockish, chillish soft music with full of feelings and one of your best bass play...incredible...solo italiano can make it...

Guitars are on the top too and the mix is superb too...not too harsh as always today...

Dom...all my hats off, Danke

Description : The homonym acapella was uploaded by Odarka to her YouTube page one year ago (free download for non profit use) . I found it wonderful and worked on this for about 10-12 days. I was never a good dancer, just a good listener and I remain so ! That's why I avoid making dance music and I think this track (too) is an "acoustic pop" one.
I hope you like it ! Cheersssssssssss !!

Description : IMMA REAL CREEPIN N----- COMING THROUGH THE FRONT DOOR

HIDE YA KIDS AND HIDE WIFE BEFORE THEY HIT ------------

That's the hook here. I've decided.

Anyway, started this yesterday. finished today. More Memphis rap beats out of me for a bit. Was going to make some Phonk out of this, but this sounds more of a trap track than a Phonk song.

It's downloadable. Send me whatever you make! I always like hearing people use my tracks for their own stuff. It's pretty cool. :)

Description : Micky sent me this Funk Bass stem, (yeah Micky can play Funk Bass) that he played. I've had it 3 or 4 years . I thought it was the Funkiest thing I had ever heard. I have used it on several of my tracks but I think this track really brings the Bass out. I wrote this track and I'm playing Keytar. I probably should have sent it to Micky for Mastering but, here we are...

PEACE...

Description : They no longer needed chains, the new masters of men. Only glass, small mirrors held in every palm, whispering what to fear, whom to hate, when to march.

They call it connection. It is conscription, dressed gently.

And the cruelest trick of all: each soldier in that silent army still believes the marching orders were his own idea, arrived at freely, in the solitude of his own quiet mind.
