Lost At Love

When you really love someone and thought they reciprocated but they didn't it hurts. When they break up with you you go into a depression. You cry and the more people try to help you the louder you cry.

Sometimes things just flow together easily. I finished this one in about 5 hours.

BiaB style - Milisa2 - EV.16 Folk-Rock
Tempo - 40 PBM
Bass - Ample bass - Upright
Guitar and Piano - Kontakt - Picked Nylon string guitar
Strings - EastWest Symphonic Chorus - Full Chorus
Drums - I deleted most of the drum parts and those that I kept I used for percussion from Kontakt-Indiginus - Brio Percussion Ensemble

Via my breath and wind controller I am playing the Swam Tenor sax.

Excellent.
One of your best.

I hear you crying.

Mario, man, that sax sounds GREAT! Very natural and ALIVE.

Ah, unrequited love...a timeless theme. You've done a great job capturing the doubt and angst that comes with the territory. Really like your harmonic development and arrangement in support of the narrative.

Just a super duper song!

Hi, Mario.

Nice! The SWAM sax (and your playing) sound great.

What a great take on the theme ... and to do that instrumentally is amazing.

That sax! The closest we've come to horn playing was Janice on clarinet in high school but we love a sax.
Our favorite is Lester with Billie Holiday and that was our first thought listening.

Excellent!

WOW! So much emotion in those sax lines --so well played with passion. My favorite sax is Charlie Parker and of couse Phil Woods who adopted Bird's kids. Strings/voices whatever it's called is the perfect drone for the background. I also like the stipped down percussion. Much enjoyed, Mario.

Thanx Floyd! Sometimes those quick and dirty songs come out the best don't they.

Thanx so much Ron. I'm glad that you enjoyed it.


Thanx David. I really like the breath controller, keyboard controller, and those Swam instruments. A whole new world has opened up to me!

Thanx Janice and Bud. Janice should get a wind controller and Swam saxes. Wind controllers can have clarinet fingerings. Also thanx for that Lester Young comment!

Thanx so much for this very kind review Marty. I am making gains on the breath and keyboard controllers and those Swam instruments. I'm glad you noticed the emotion that I tried to inject into this song. My favorite sax is John Coltrane. I really like the jazz from that era!

Some very sweet sounds Mario.

That seems like a nice sax VST you have there.

Mario,

Absolutely beautiful and full of emotion... That sax is superb. It makes the whole tune.

Great, great stuff.

Bob

Thanx so much David. Yes those Swam instruments are outstanding.


Thanx so much Bob. I appreciate the fact you took the time to listen and comment on this quick and dirty song of mine.

You are a master on that wind controller, well done.

Thanx so much Steve.

Man that sax exudes emotion.

Perfect title.

Another brilliant instrumental!

Hm, some Gato Barbieri sound going on there. Well done Mario!

Cheers

Mike B.

Thanx so much gentlemen for taking the time to listen and comment on this little quick and dirty song of mine. I greatly appreciate you input.

Great job with your windy thingy.
You create a depressive and sad mood, very well done.
Love that!

But, real man™, don't cry, they carry on.
Or, as Dave Grohl gently puts it: "Done, done, on to the next one"

Thanx so much Brian.

Hi Mario - the whole mood of this track reflects the crushing feeling when you're rejected and shoved to one side (had a life-time of that myself)!
You projected the 'cry, depression & aloneness' very well,
Be happy & joyful my friend, remember to laugh!

Cheers, Carl

Thanx Carl. I'm glad you got the mood I was trying to set with this instrumental.

Mario, man, that sax sounds amazing! Just dripping with emotion, great tone.

One of your best instrumentals I think, well done.

Thanx Dave, I appreciate your very kind review.

Mario...you're breaking my heart here....love the sax and its texture...I think you captured the mood you were shooting for...great for a soundtrack for a really sad, contemplative scene in a movie...the choir adds an added morose element...well done!

Dan, I apologize for breaking your heart but as you know God will heal it. I'm glad that you liked it.

Just the right reverb/delay on the sax for it to have muscle and space.
Nicely done Mario - a cool sax song.

Definitely soundtrack material. I love what you do with the Swam Sax. The haunting organ is great, plus there's some lovely chord changes in that.

Thanx Ray. I really like those Swam instruments.


Thanx for listening and commenting, I appreciate it.
