This is a very cool pop song Scott. The vocals are great, who is singing? The horns and strings at 3:30 is a nice dynamic change. Drums sound nice. You always seem to have even mixes, everything in it's place.

Tip of my hat to all involved!

Thanks allot, Wayne. Glad you like it. The vocals were some samples I found on the net somewhere awhile back. Glad you like the orchestration. I have a great passion for orchestral music, having played in a few in my younger days. I love it when bands opt to have an orchestra back them.

Cheers,
Scott

Hi Scott ....

Just a short time here .... and happy to discover this track that has not aged (in concept) even if with your knowledge "technical" of today, have brought him even more shine and radiance. The guitar is discrette but effective. It is the voice of whom?

The mood you set right away is perfect with the strings. The build up is great and the song really develops nicely as it goes. What is that effect on her vocals in the middle, sounds like it is used on a guitar track also. Is it a fast tremolo or something along those lines?

Mix is great and the ending is very cool as well. Simple guitar parts like the picking at around 4:05 I just love. Reminds me of the guitar lick in "Get Off of My Cloud" by the Stones that continually plays through the song.

Rock, pop...whatever, it's good, plain and simple!

Cool composition on this one, and I am deciding that only based on the first minute. Pleasing melodic passages to compliment the chords you've used. Seems like virtual instruments, but they are used quite well! I like the dynamic feel of the mix/master here too. I'm guessing that those are real guitars though, they have a nice tone. Who did these vocals? They are pretty potent. Not my usual listening preference, but it has a lot of power to it! Great work!

ScottB55 replied 1st Apr 2015 - 10 years ago
Hey Spiv,

Thanks allot for checking it out and taking time to comment.

Yeah, this is a combination of VST's and real instruments and the vocals were a few different samples I had in my toolbox that seemed to fit in well.

Cheers,
Scott

Now THAT is one hell of an intro. I loved it! So capturing. You had so much control of the track, and with funk that is absolutely important. I love the brass that was used. Is the brass VST, or actual playing? Because they sound very realisitc. If they are VST's, what are they called, my friend? This is one very funky piece of work, no doubt. You couldn't possibly receive my fav faster. So much creativity is involved, which inspires me for my current Funk/Jazz track I'm working on. I encourage you, and who all was involved to do more of this. Incredible live solos with the keys and the guitars. Much respect! Peace!

ScottB55 replied 25th Mar 2015 - 10 years ago
Thanks allot, GO. So glad you like it and took time to comment and fav it.

I agree...Funk is quite tight. The brass is my Kontakt VST and is one of my favorites. Brass can be tough to get right without sounding too midi.

I do have plans to do much more of this style. My page has a few more similar to this if you want to check it out.

Cheers,
Scott

If you are going to know a heavier rock band, Sabbath was a good choice. I had never seen Orange amps till I saw them in a film clip using them.

The beginning was a bit deceiving, wasn't expecting all that happens after that! What do you have for effects on the rhythm guitar around 1:28. It is interesting for sure. The choir pad was different. :) Drums are clean and punchy and the guitars sound great. Tons of energy just like Sabbath had.

Very cool Scott and James!

ScottB55 replied 25th Mar 2015 - 10 years ago
Hey, thanks allot Wayne. Yeah, I got into Sabbath due to the drum solo on one of their tracks. I never got much further into metal than this.

To be honest, I can't answer your question on the effects on the guitar. I'm not a guitarist, so don't know.

Thanks allot. The drums are my Aleses electronic kit set to the Metal setting. I wish I was able to use my acoustic kit, but it's just not possible where I live. The Alesis also allow for different music styles.

hi Scott. I really liked fine sounding guitars in here. I do not really get the choirs, probably it is a refference to the older rock music you mentioned... Overall a powerful piece with some very good riffs. NIce one! Alex
ScottB55
ScottB55 replied 17th Mar 2015 - 10 years ago
Hey Alex,

Many thanks for your comment. As I mentioned, I'm not an authority on metal, but I have heard some earlier stuff that had the choir. I know Gothic Metal uses choirs a good bit.

Scott

Hi Scott,
Great track.
There is not so much to say about this: very professional, all the elements (guitar, voice, drums) are simply "perfect".
Very well done!
Ciao, Domenico

PS: I did not mention explicitly the bass, it is also very good, a bit "understated" but that's exactly what the track needs. So it is perfect as well :-)

I always dig your mixes, they are very clean and your choice of panning here makes me think deep about such things. Great guitar and wah effects. There is so much to listen to in your tracks but they never seem crowded. Always a pleasure!

ScottB55
ScottB55 replied 11th Mar 2015 - 10 years ago
Hi Jklice,

Thanks for your comment. I remember the early days of panning when it was more aggressive than today. I like the sound of different instruments mainly coming out of one speaker rather than both. Not sure if it's right or wrong, but it just sounds better to me.

Cheers,
Scott

Definitely it is hard to put in one exact genre...but this is bloody good...vocs are pop/rock/hip a bit, guitars,bass are surely funk, the drums are new wave plus some strings from the classical side...awesome track Scott...
Always loved the works from the team but this song is very close to me...I think the mood...

Thank you so much, Danke. So glad you like and took the time to comment. I always love receiving and reading your kind words.

Actually, this track started out as funk, but I found some cool pellas that fit well, and it just started taking on a life of it's own. I actually like it when that happens, because I usually get something out of my comfort zone.

Scott

Haha, what a fun track! It has it all, a little Seinfeld ,a lot of jazz and even a little Daft Punk sounding vocal work.

What a treat. Excellent work!

so refreshing to hear this feel! never heard that talk-box effect at the beginning. that is a new sound for me. very slick arrangement and mix. neat solos by different instruments and of course the skatting is classic. When the piano takes a turn at 2:08 it is a perfect moment. fun track!
ScottB55
ScottB55 replied 4th Mar 2015 - 10 years ago
Thanks allot, MS. I appreciate your comment.

The talk-box has been around awhile. Most people knew of the talk-box from Peter Frampton's album. I don't know if it's used much in today's music, since, other than jazz, I don't listen to too much new stuff.

Cheers,
Scott
