I thought so. The main idea was around the Truth. I don't know who said it but the full quote is "trust those who seek the truth, not those who say they found it". I liked that a lot.

WOWWW!! & WOWWW!!! again, this is some honest to goodness groovyness! right here man, this is GREAT! work indeed, your vocals suit the track perfectly. I use to like those pear drop sweets we have here but no longer eat those, I'm a stickler for keeping my teeth looking pretty and they can be bad for teeth :) EXCELLENT TRACK.

zootman2u, you got me with the bass. Yep! You’ve got the drums right at that sweet spot mix wise and the proximity on the vocals, however you processed them fit the overall theme of the song perfectly. Much respect on your technique. Be safe.

Hey man! I absolutely love this track. In fact, I would really love to do a remaster of it and see if any more quality can be pushed from it, because it has a lot of potential. You will have full credit for the track, and no monetary gain will come from it.

My best,
Jason

Sorry I missed this earlier, a little late to the game on this one. Reminds me of Get Down Moses by Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros.

"Fake it till you make it", always loved that saying.

Great groove, cool guitars, liked the vocal delivery, cool track man!

That bassline reminded me a small bit of ¨The Bogus Man" from Roxy Music but with more syncopated drums.. really good, I like the arrangement, the Rhodes, and the strummed guitar chords. well-liked, the vox was cool as well, well delivered.

Zootman replied 19th Jul 2021 - 3 years ago
haha good ears someone noticed or at least commented. yep, i was kind of aiming for a sort of polyrhythmic effect. it has no real time signature, or at least no set beginning or end to any 'bar'. or maybe no bars as such! I used two drum loops which i do quite a lot, then kind of slid one past the other until I ended up with something interesting. and the other bits and pieces kind of just got thrown in to wherever i thought they sounded good. cheers for the listen.

Hi Chris,
yippee aye eh. This is a great song to start the day. Well done. The bass, from megapaul, does his work well and your voice fits as always.
Have a nice day! Enjoy the time, the tide comes everywhere at some point (maybe you heard about it what happened here in europe).

Thanks mate. This mix is one I sent to landr for mastering. To be honest, when I compare my master with theirs they're pretty similar I think, apart from the volume increase. Which is heartening actually.

Great Track - love it - foot stomping head nodding grove, great sound, good vocal, lyrics even a hint of what sounds like a Hammond organ (btw I actually have a real one of those - seriously) Well done mate - REAL music!

Description : This is my newest creation, at a stage very near to completion. No third-party mastering or mixing, as with all my tracks. Just have to fix a few tiny things. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO MIX EVERYTHING IN THE SAME SESSION. This song has all human-played instruments - no quantization or MIDI! My brother does all the vocals except for the interlude part, which I do. My other brother plays the rhythm guitar (a Gibson Les Paul Custom - only one of 12 in the world!!) and I play the accompanying guitar (a Johnny Mar Jag and PRS). He has a lot of guitars :P A good friend of ours, Ronnie, plays the bass and another friend, Freddie, plays the drums. The drum track was done in one take (had to use an electric drum set due to time constraints - but acoustic kits are so much better). Overall, pretty satisfied with the result. Let me know your thoughts.

Description : The first track I sing on. Cheap stage mic & no fancy plugins. Heavily guitar laden to the point it's got a bit of a shoegaze thing going on. I pulled the lyrics out of my ass & yes, they're a bit silly.

Description : BIG UPDATE 26/02/2014 - So, this was an 18 min track that I have now successfully split in two. 2nd half I uploaded a few weeks ago (Things That Should Always Be, with the bouncy 2 min reggae intro). This is the first half, which has a new mix, a mega chill, meditative ending and a little jazz thrown in for good measure. Takes a few minutes for beat to really kick in. Constantly evolving electric guitar, bass guitar, acoustic drums and lead banjo driven by fat, busy 80BPM grooves with a bit of a reggae and shuffle feel. Also: synth choir voices, dulcimer, violin, cello, shimmering pads. Builds up gradually to nice and rocking and then gets taken back down for the big comedown chill. I really don't know what sort of genre this is except 'far out'. I think it sounds more like a live band than one guy playing instruments and manipulating a DAW. Not my best track but a bit of blissful, sunny island fun. Real positive vibe here so I hope you give it a chance to unfold and unfurl. Sit back, clear your schedule and immerse yourself in these trippy sonic experiments cooked up deep in my off-planet underground laboratory. I have to send the MP3 to Earth via space courier (not cheap).
