Nice atmospheric song, I think it has a cool retro 80's vibe too.

Wee tune my ass. This is fantastic, bro!!

You have one of the best voices I've heard - I'd trade with you in a minute!

Fantastic production too. You're really getting good at dialing in your vocals. Great job with that.

All in all, Sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet!!!!!!!!

Peace,

Mark

Not bad for a fellow who can't play keys and is just mucking about. Wish my mucking would sound half as good.

Thanks everyone for the listen, just started playing with the keys and add one track after another, one finger stuff really,will have to learn a few chords, the vox was the last thing added, so I really did,nt know where this was going till the end.

Hi FH the drums are are from the keyboard it,s self, started with the bass notes and add the fills on the fly as I when,t. Feels like cheating adding auto fill at the right moment, then recorded to tracks one and two panned left and right to give it a stereo effect and finally tweaked the sound in mastering, thanks ORH for the stereo tip, and oh I nearly forgot the keys are PSR-E213.

Hi Mark I,ve been found out, spent a bit of time on this, but never like to bang my own drum as they say.

                              Thanks again everyone

Really cool song, very nice bit of inspiration here, it works wonderfully John.  Guitar would have overpowered the feeling here, so the right choice to not put any on.  Your layered approach to keys works very well, I do it similiar with my keys parts on my songs.

Great stuff John, I really think your voice suits this style of music, as well as the rockier songs. Loads of great atmosphere in this that you have created, and the melody of the song is top notch. Some really nice simple touches that you add in from time to time, it all works perfectly.

Could be one of my favourites of yours!
