Description : Update: Remastered in audition. A bit sparkier I think...
While my friends Jim and Allen are doing their stuff on some Transatlantic Experience tunes, I thought I might do a pop/rock song on my own. Recorded on a macbook pro using my strat, the presicion and my latest guitar, a flying V. Drum loops by guitarjock (check out his work, great guitar and drum work).
The lyrics are an adlib so it might sound a little strange here and there. :) What do you think? Let me know,

I'm flattered by your kind review, I'm really glad you like my music. You might be interrested in checking out the band page here at looper: TransatlanticExp . There you'll find tunes I've made together with AllenV and Tacatta. Again, thank you very much for listening and reviewing.

Gibson Flying V and an Orange amp, a kick a$$ sound for sure! The track sounds great, evenly mixed. Not bad for just making up the lyrics! Cool track PMK!
Thank you, Wayne! Long time no hear and your review makes me really happy, and the fav too! And yeah, that guitar has so much phat, chunky rock in it and that amp just blows me away.
Again, thanks.

Oh, I am very thankful for your kind words. I do concider myself more a song writer than a guitar player. And not a singer at all. Thank you very much for the review, I appreciate it.
Cheers

You know I'm such a fan of your guitar sound Kikajon...Your real guitar sounds like a "real" guitar and you have a very refreshing song here,very good!
I feel inspired to experience something transatlantic now!
Thank you Allen, I'm glad you like it. The guitar sound – just a cord into an amp, I guess.
But check your mailbox, I think your wish about transatlantic experiences just came true. :D
Thanks Vicen, I'm glad you liked it. The song came about fairly quickly, I wanted to make a more European sounding tune and I guess I came close anyway. :)
Thanks again for your nice words.

p.s. Jim just finished the vocals on the next Transatlantic Experience song, thought you'd like to know.
This is a really great track! Love this very much
I must say without the sync problems(vocal) here and there this is a top track, the kind you want to hear on the radio every day :)
Thank you for the kind review. The syncing problem is probably because I make up the lyrics as I sing them, I'm sort of occupied figuring out the next word all the time. :)
But on the other hand, if I actually write the lyrics I might just make it better. Thanks again.

Thank you Spiv, I'm glad you listened and I appreciate your kind words. The mix was made with new headphones so it was a bit of guessing in the mix, but it seems like it worked out just fine.
Thanks again, cheers

Kyle, thanks. The flying V came in nicely in the introduction and the rest is strat. I wanted a more European sound in this one and I think it came out nice. Maybe an tamburine and an organ can make way into the song, I'm not sure. Thanks again for the review. Cheers

this really works, connects on all the levels - gotta be up there with your best vox - new life, relevance for power-ballads - much admired, great respect, pmk
Thanks Michael. Since I consider myself a guitarplayer/songwriter first your comment on the vocals is unexpected and much appreciated. Thanks again for your very kind words.
Cheers

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 : Feel free to check out the lyrics video on YT as well :) This is a new track based on the great vocals by Ashes and Dreams! Again, a mix of electronic/progressive/rock, any feedback is welcome
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).
Description : This is the 2nd cover of Big Audio Dynamite i done With my freind John. We both fan of the band so we decided to do a challenge and produce a serie of covers. we done 4 in one month. each track got it proper video check my youtube channel indiegroundvid
