"Don't say a word" a Geir original

[Geir]

oh my ... this is a long one ... both to make and to listen to

Clocks in at almost 8 minutes so it's shrunk to 112kbs to fit .....

A lot of fun tools where used to make this one.

Lyrically it's two stories told here ... it changes halfway through.

This is the first song to feature my new Telecaster, and also the first time I used instruments from Xewton Musicstudio on the iPad.

Don't say a word

w/m:Geir
Instruments used:
MiM Fender Telecaster (rhythm and main lead.)
Ibanez ST300 (the lead/fills WAY back in the mix
vocals recorded vith built in mics and processed in Audacity
iPad:
DrumJam
Musicstudio didgeridoo and synth pads
iMini selfmade patch (the "chopper" sound that come in at about 3mins)

[Gnasty]

WOW!! Where do i start! I listened on cans and that sounded epic! LOve the drumjam sounds. I`m working with that myself. That chopper effect sounds wicked!!!

Love the tele solos. Very tasteful licks that stay in touch with the song. The long vocal screams are out of this world.
It didn`t seem long while listening cuz it kept my attention the whole way, Gonna listen more! PIEPOD bound!!!

You`re the man Geir!

[Farrell Jackson]

Wow this is an epic song Geir but the 8 minutes went by before I knew it. The new Tele sounds sweet on the solos with it's clearish growl and it really stands out in the mix. Nice!

Are you trying to out-epic Frank? You could be succeeding.....  A lot of depths to be explored here, love the guitar work and the Tele, she sounds really clear and sharp with a great clarity to the tone. It's a real grower and it builds beautifully, the vox and guitar leads work really well together, both counterpoint each other very well. Love the soundscape with digeridoos and various percussion things  going on, including choppers.......

Fabulous!

[Redler]

Liked the soundscape! Everything is on the right spot! A lots of layers here and the song sounds so dynamic and mellow! Special praise to the percussion! This is EPIC! Big WOW!

[cuthbert]

Wow!! This is huge, and and if you hadn't mentioned it was nearly 8 minutes, I would never have guessed - time just flew by.

Really incredible. I'm basking in the afterglow.

[bazz-t-bass]

Hi Geir...............what a zonking piece of work......I don't go on my holidays for that long..............great stuff.

Did just find the vocals a bit sibilant but could be my audio gear.

Bazz

[Hook]

Spectacularly epic! This is equally amazing  in songwriting, production & performance. It's so thick & full of layers, it really reminds me of early Genesis. Your vocal is so strong it just carries me away & out of no where I have to hit start again!
Rock On!
