1 Step w/o U (Original)

[ksauers]

Okay, this is my first song posting. I'm new to this site, but I've owned my MBR for over a year. It's a love/hate relationship. One moment I think this is the greatest invention of our time and the next; I want to throw it out the window chased with a few choice words I won't mention here. Basically because of my own stupidity. It's been trial and error and trial and error over and over again. In the past few weeks I've been reading and learning from the posts you guys and gals put on this site. You have helped me take quite a few steps toward taking what I hear in my head and putting it down on a recording. Thank you all. I have much enjoyed your encouraging comments to each other, it is very refreshing. I look forward to improving together. Thanks again!!!!!!

Hey Kurt, I totally agree with everthing Geir said~ Sounds great...Very inspiring for me to try more "complete productions" Love the keyboard! I really need to work on doing drum tracks~ You sound really good brother~I'd love to listen to you anytime

[Rata-tat-tat]

Man... I really dig the sound on this track. This is a very good production. You can really tell that you have put some effort into this with the breaks and fills. I hear Celtic influence on this one... maybe throw some bagpipes in the background... Just a thought. Even without this is really great.

Like I said, I've been listening to you guys for weeks and this might sound dumb, but I'm a fan. I'm driving my wife and kids up the wall, because I make them listen to all of you. This forum is great and you don't know how much your support means to me. I was in a local band that played out quite a bit and we had a CD that was doing pretty good. I gave it up to be a good Dad and be there for my kids (baseball, soccer, etc.) and now I have a place to do what I love and make music again! Thank you!

Frustrating!! Well it was worth the work.  Magnificent.  And yes this is a great place to still play music when  you can't play out anymore. I would be lost without this place now.  And I'm sure my hubby sympethizes with your wife. LOL  I make him listen a lot too!!  Can't wait to hear more.
