"Acoustic Pleasure" by Mike Huntingford

[Mike Huntingford]

Hi everyone, my project today was to create a song that combines many elements but the overall theme is to make you think this was an in studio project with live singers and players.  The choirs are from Ominsphere (several used) the acoustic guitar is from my KORG PA-900 that I am playing with my Roland RD-2000 as a controller.

Hopefully you will enjoy this little illusion - let me know please if I have succeeded.

this is elevating music that makes my spine resonate with light... it's superb... I love stuff like this.  Those voices sound heavenly.  At least for me yes, you more than succeeded...
I always download your music for listening in the car later...yesterday I heard your version of "Take Me to The River" with that singer you had and do I ever love that...

[Zoltan]

I knew this was too much for me to take! The angelic voices in the beginning, the harmony that follows. There's light and there's shade. The whole feel of the track is uplifting and grandiose. There's cinematic quality to it too. 

The illusion works.

Yeah definitely succeeded. What an awesome track. I just love the melody and the peaceful feeling of it. The choirs sound just great. The acoustic guitar is really nice. Great performance and production.

Succeeded indeed, Mike. Absolutely fabulous sounding choral production and very authentic presence.

Thank you everyone, as this song is helping me cope with terrible all too regular mass shooting in Texas. Until just recently, I was a POST and NRA Instructor/RSO that was the primary firearms instructor (to include Active Shooter Response) for a major school district in Colorado.  This PREDICTABLE and senseless slaughter of our precious little one makes me so ashamed of any affiliation with the enabling NRA and their bought-and-paid for politicians. Nowhere else in the world is this a normal occurrence! I am proud to have provided our armed officers the training and resources to take these diseased freaks out (or as we say "Stop the Violence") -- of course you know what that really means! As I am now officially retired, I have ceased to be an NRA instructor and have actually burned my cards!

Thank you everyone for your comments and I hope you have enjoyed this little tranquil moment.

This is rather lovely. It starts nice and mellow and stays mellow, but does really burst into life at the same time. Beautiful piece of music, I really enjoyed it. All those sounds you can get are really impressive but it takes a great deal of skill to use them as well as this.
