This is my first post.  The song was recorded in a garden shed over a period of 3 weeks.  I used a Yamaha Keyboard, Tanglewood acoustic, Fender Jaguar Bass and a SM58 classic microphone.  The audio samples used in this song are from old time radio programmes all of which are in the public domain.  Unfortunately due to the limited file size allowence on song crafters I have only managed to put half of the song up.  If you would like to listen to the whole thing you will have to listen to it on Youtube.  My channel is thethinkingroom1. Iam not a singer or so my wife keeps telling me and after a load of cans of lager Iam not a guitar player either. I am very heavily influenced by Pink Floyd. The Thinking Room is the name I've called my shed.

I loved the mystical and psychedelic feel on this. Watched the extended version on YouTube. I heard some Pink Floydish influence on this as you mentioned. Great post and welcome to the site!

Welcome - Very cool song, love it! I think your vocals are very good, wish they were brought up in the mix a little more.

Well done, I dig it!

I really like the feel and production. Sounds like it could have been an "Obscured by Clouds" out-take. Very cool.

Tangled Wires

Very nice indeed.

Perhaps the vocal could come up slightly, but in a way I like where it sits as it adds such a cool ambience and dreamy quality to the song.

Can hear the Floyd influence, but I think you have plenty of your own style stamped all over it.

Great first post!
Keep them coming.

Bluesberry

Yeah, thats what I like.  When the vocal came in it was perfect.  Very cool.  I don't think the vocals need to come up at all, they are very warm sounding and seem to sit in nicely.  I really dig this.  Great post, lets have some more of this wonderful stuff.
