Another cool rock track Ron. Love the trademark harp of yours. The guitar tones sound bloody great. The drums are really good too. Brilliant vocals / harmonies as usual and lyrics.

Everything Darren says. Great track, Ron.

Cover Songs / On an Island by David Gilmour ...

Last post by the physics teacher - May 27, 2024, 11:34:14 AM

The backingvoix is not the only thing JP did. He did 90% of the whole song I'm only in it for the lead song.
When I got the soundfile back for approval I had a big smile on my face so happy I was about the result.

I am sure Jean Pierre will explain what he did to produce this piece,ON AN ISLAND RENDER  VERSION AVEC VOICES ET RENDER ORCHESTRA DEF-001.mp3   he is a wizard. Thank you JP.

Original Songs / Quick - Get Your Pants Off!

Last post by ODH - May 27, 2024, 10:51:25 AM

Punk is ideal for the two chords oeuvre, right?

The guitar on this bit of nonsense is the Tokai Telecaster, two tracks. The lightning connector on my phone is broken so I have to mic my practice amp to record electric guitar (it's partly why I've done so much on the acoustic lately. Otherwise GB drums and bass. And childish vocals (no words came to me for the middle part, I decided that was kind of consistent with the subtext of the song).

Comes in at a shade under two minutes

Cover Songs / SPECTRAL MORNING cover Steve ...

Last post by Jean Pierre - May 27, 2024, 09:58:06 AM

Known as the guitarist in the group Genesis from 1971 to 1977, he embarked on a solo career in 1975,  His electric guitar playing is based on an ethereal, experimental sound , favouring harmony and musicality over technical demonstration. His sound is poetic, quirky and dreamlike.

...and that's really the case with this composition, which I hadn't heard before and which won me over with its simplicity and musicality.

I had a hard time with the computer because the number of midi tracks (played on my keystation M audio keyboard with soundfonts from the Titanic bank) really took its toll on my computer's CPU... I had to do a partial "orchestra" render , then mix with my two guitar tracks...

All your songs are so original and cool to listen to and catchy. Your music and vocals are just great. I really love this. I agree with you too about this site and the songs being better than most radio stations today.
Just keep doing what you're doing Stephen, we all love it.

Love the drums in this. A brilliant song Mike. It's like a cross between Dylan and Johnny cash lol.
The music is so cool, great guitars and love the lyrics and vocals. Quite dark in tone.

Great song, got to echo what the others have said already. Music is played and produced masterfully. Got some great instruments in this, the synths, the horns, strings and bass and piano are excellent. Love the lyrics and vocals.
