how many heartbeats (tic tic toc) music by posc lyrics/vox by oldrottenhead

[Gu Djin]

All the superlatives worth using have been used.  So I'll just say brilliant and "How many songs?" will be remembered as much as this.

yeah... what'd you do with the vocals on the remix, if you don't mind me asking? It sounds like it sits better and if it was any lower in the mix would be hidden, but instead sits perfectly in the shroud of music. I actually thought to myself that it wasn't a bad vocal track being added the way it was but it sits beautifully in the remix version. A definite, yet subtle, improvement.

Dear T.C. Elliot,
it's just a matter of editing by software. For the editing of a single instrument, or vocals, on a single track, I use a software called Izotope Alloy, that has many, many presets for...everything: vocals, bass, drums, piano, strings, horns...everything.
Of course I try to choose the most "natural" preset (some of them are really horrible...), and anyway I'm not a recording engineer, so I just trust my ears. But if someone would like to know better about "what" is involved in each one of the presets (compression, equalization, limiter and so on...), everything is very well explained, so there's also so much room for your own experiments.

Thanks, thanks everybody again. Your words are the best prize for our music!

the words seem to match up at one point i sing how many heartbeats and the camera in an underpass panns by hearts on the wall. synnchronicity or wot.

No, just magic...

Listening again.

I love this song.

[guitarron]

This is really great-i love that bass especially

[Kevin Mammoth]

This is magic - the song, story behind the song, the video - the musicianship!  It all really came together in a big way, bravo guys.

I got a chance to hear this a little bit ago - Great music, and well done putting down the lyrics and vocals.

I still feel the Dave Matthews vibe with some of these songs you guys do, with a little Paul Simon splashed in there.

Cool stuff!!
