If you have time take a listen and give JohnSmokey some feedback.
Of course, I completely agree! Repetition is very important for a song. It is also crucial to use boundaries, additions and conscious deviations in songwriting. When used correctly and purposefully, these elements highlight and support the repetitions and bring them into a new musical context.
I'll listen to the links when I get a chance. Until then, I wish you a nice rest of the weekend.
The idea of combining blues with rap or hip hop is quite interesting and seems to work. However, the song unfortunately gets a bit lost in repetitions as it progresses. A small but noticeable deviation could counteract this, such as a brief change in pitch that then returns to the original flow. This is just a personal suggestion. The mix and mastering are definitely successful, and I also find the basic idea of the song appealing.
Kind regards, Manuela
My range is not great... Lol but yes I agree changing the pitch could add to the product. Currently I'm a one man army on the vocals and lyrics.
I think repetition is a needed part to any song. In some form yuh know? I am glad the song could appeal to your senses in some way. Listen to S1 - T.S.a.A. Blackjack: Ep 1 - Part 1: The Blue Glow - Part 1 by Johnnie Smoke on #SoundCloud https://on.soundcloud.com/Dz44VCxifsqtn3pa9

Here are the first two parts to episode one of my podcast. I hope to open the forum for many down the line. To express themselves and make the world a better place. I think you will enjoy the product over there. I did the piano and everything else. I need to record part 3.
Life's a trip I got the remix I'll be back but let's listen to this.
Some roadhouse music that's right! I can definitely see some strippers getting down on this lol
It's that guitar 2+2 is quarto dope

Description : Of all the classic Monster tales the Wolfman is definitely one of the saddest. Cursed, and destined to live as both man and monster. During the day he sits alone with his guitar, a prisoner of lonely existence, crying his heart out through his music. Then at night, the beast emerges, and in the dark under a full moon, he cry's as he rips the hearts out of his victims! Such is the life of a cursed bluesman!
Description : This is a tune dedicated to my friend, Nancy, who followed me to the clubs I played at for years, and is still following me with my studio work. Why do I dedicate this to her? Onnacounta cause she's soooooo naughty! She never liked violins, but loved her sax! Here's to you, Nancy. Anyway, this is a little blues track with some nice guitar and sex...oh, sorry, I mean sax.
Description : A sultry, seductive, and fairly short acoustic blues number. It is an instrumental and only took about 2 hours to write, record, and get a decent mix. Enjoy! Updated: I added some slight echo to the electric guitar and widened the stereo fields of the acoustic rhythm and leads.
Description : Miguel Flores, vocals. Jean-Maurice Humbert-Droz, lead guitars. Laurent Schwaar, guitars. Roland Sumi, bass. Richard Pizzorno, Hammond. Laurent Wirz Drums. Loop from josephfunk (rhodes). Composed by Miguel Flores.
Description : guitar on right run thru my friends mesa rec 25. It has an absolutely gorgeous tone. The guitar playing D, C #, B is run thru guitar rig 6. The the pushed back guitar on the left is also run thru the mesa. My UNC chapel-hill decision letter is coming out tomorrow and I'm super stressed. Whipped out my guitar and recorded some stuff. Hope you like it.
Description : Fresh out of the studio after 10 weeks of deliberating, planning, writing and performing.
This could be classed as Country Blues or Southern Rock...either way I think it may get your toes tapping. So grab your partner and jump on the dance floor with this one.
I am performing the following instruments...vocals, electric guitars, slide acoustic, bass, harmonica, organ. I wrote the following instrument parts in MIDI....drums, percussion, piano, horns. This was a beast to master but I think it turned out okay.
No loops used.
Description : UPDATE 26/01/2014: Improved loads of things in what is probably my greatest chillout alternative blues piece. Ambient, ethereal, groove-based delta slide blues. Contemplative and melodic. Multiple, layered , sometimes shimmering resonator guitar parts with solid, warm synth bass, an ethereal bed of pads (which are actually guitars) and second electronic drumkit to contrast the acoustic kits. I thought this was perfect a few years ago but it wasn't (and still isn't). Now has clearer drums and lots of small awkward bits of guitar have been trimmed. Quite a minimalistic and short piece for me - I don't just keep bringing in new instruments, as I usually do. This should really chill you out...
