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,

Hello Kikajon, nice track and well produced all the way around. Kind of sounds like something John Lennon would do.

Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind review. The song started out as an attempt to sound more indie and this is how it turned out.

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.

Kikajon replied Unknown
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.

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!

Kikajon replied Unknown
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

Great song. Everything sounds perfect. This is what we call soft rock Barcelona. With charm, strength and velvet sound. The guitar solo is beautiful.
Kikajon
Kikajon replied Unknown
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 :)

Fav'd it ;)

Cheers
Kikajon
Kikajon replied Unknown
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

Kikajon replied Unknown
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

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).
