Description : Update: Finally me and Erik found the time to add his vocals to this country tune. I remixed it and added more of Allens country pickin' guitar. It's hard to make it more country than this... :)
My son Erik (kruus @ looper) had an idea about a rock/country song (more country than rock maybe). We started to jam, had a blast and started recording. My vocals are an adlib as ususal, to be replaced by Eriks voice. My friend Allen heard the tune and added some country style pickin' . Recorded on a Macbook with garageband, a slide, strat, precision and tolerant neigbours, here's a first rough draft of in my country. Enjoy.
Minor update: adjusted volumes, still waiting for the big one.

this is really really great - love the guitars and the strong country rock feel - great tones and great vocals and production - very nice work here! Love how it thins out and gives you a good listen to some of the individual tracks towards the end.
Thanks, Haven. I'm thrilled that you took the time to listen and reviewing. I'll pass on your kind words to Erik - he came up with the chords and we took it from there. Again, thank you.

Sorry its been awhile I got to listen to any of your songs and leave a review, as I owe you.
I am happy to hear this country rock tune here. I like it and it sounds really nice. The slide guitar sounds cool and some pedal steel sounds are there.
The vocals make all the difference in a song and I like them here. The guitar playing is very good.
I think you did a very nice job on this song and should do more country.
I am posting another modern country song in a few days. Give a listen if you get a chance.
Thanks for sharing this song ...great job on everything.

Hi Randy, and thank you. My son and I are both totally impressed by your music – and I appreciate your kind words even more.
I'll definately check out your page in a few days – it nice to have something to look forward to.
Speak soon

Thank you Spyder, I'm glad you like it. The track was very fun to make, and Allens guitar spiced up the song. Erik sings it in a way I can't so I am very proud of how it turned out.
Y'know, country ain't my style. But it was fun.

Thank you, I'm glad you like it. It was so much fun recording it, we did the final vocals in a hotel room in Åre – just after a freestyle moguls event. It was around 11:30 pm when I realised that the people in the room next door probably were trying to sleep. Anyway, thank you for stopping by an giving such a kind review.

Thank you very much. We sat in a hotel room in the swedish mountains and sang, forgetting that there were people trying to get some sleep. But the song turned out nice. Again, thank you Michael.

Thank you for stopping by, listening and liking. It was fun making it and I am glad you liked it.
I wish you a happy new year with lots of music too.
Take care.

Great tune as usual!The joy you and Eric have when you make music comes shining through.Awesome interpretation of Erics idea!YOU sound awesome tearin it up on slide!!Loved the ending Allen!
P.s. Sure whatever I can help with.
Well, the sliding part was actually me. :) But Allen did the ending, I could never do that kind of pickin'. As I said, we had great fun and I'm glad it shines through. Thanks for the kind words and I will pass them on to Erik.
/pmk
ps. Feel like adding harmonies your powerful voice?
Thanks Vicen, I'll pass your kind words on to him. Kruus did the rythm guitar and started out the lyrical layout but when I recorded the vocals I forgot the words and started improvising. And it sort of stuck. But the song really took of when we added the bass...Sooo country rock. :)

Love the slide guitar, it really gives the song a lot of character, for a rough draft this sounds pretty good. Good job with this, another great tune!!!!
Thanks mate. It's great fun to make music with Erik, and I think think that it shines through. I am grateful for your supporting words and hopefully we can rap this one up shortly.

pmk - you kill me with that outro! what a great live vibe on this - don't let Erik fully replace your voice - it is so perfect on this! maybe you two can play Kieth and Mick with the vox! is that E on background vox here? Anyway, for me it is the singing that really makes this go!
Hehe, that's Allen having fun with his Telecaster. Thanks for you enthusiastic words, I appreciate the rev very much. And maybe we night just share the vocals, me and Erik. The song is still a draft, so...we'll see where this goes. /pmk
Yes, some country rock!! Loved the first change, great chords!! Sounds like a fun jam, too bad you live so far away cuz I wanted to join in!! Tell your neighbors to learn an instrument and join in!!!

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
Description : In the 1700's the Comanche Indians became known as the Lords of the Southern Plains. The Comanche ruled a region that stretched across New Mexico, Kansas, Oklahoma, Colorado and deep into the Texas Panhandle. The most feared and savage warriors of all the tribes of the old West.
Many believe their spirits still ride the night wind here.
