I like the way you built this up as it went on.


You planning lyrics to it?

DA,

Good sounding track. Well mixed.
But it does sound a lot more like a good track waiting for it's vocal than an instrumental. Still.. a very nice track.

Great build . . . very solid track but I too think it screams for a lyric.

Later,

"Digital Angel"...

Those funky guitar licks along with the fiddle at the beginning was a startling combination and perked-up my ears. I like it when musicians experiment with blending genres. The Real Tracks -- especially the harmonica and the drums -- sounded real good.

It's good to know you enjoy your "Family Life" so much that it inspires you to set it to music!

Hi !

This was almost heavenly !:))
(just the right music by an angel ?)
I am stunned by the good sounds
you can emulate from your system.
I wish I could do that too !:))

Cheers
Dani

This is a very good sounding mix!

I like it a lot however in spots there seems to be no lead, like when the pedal steel comes in. I think a good lead guitar would sound great there as well as when the B3 comes in.

Again this is just my opinion and other may vary. Also it doesn’t need no stinking vocal, ducking and running for cover, says another instrumentalist!

Just kicking back this week and was thinking about how blessed we are to have family and friends that encourage us to follow our passions.


In reflecting over the change of seasons in the Northeast, I get inspired to create pieces that capture the emotions of the times.

Lyric's and the right singers are the next logical steps to mastering the art of songwriting for me.


Any help on this journey from family and friends is greatly appreciated.

DA,

It' pretty much all been said. Great track, mix, sound, etc. I agree that it does need some lyrics and vocals. But a very enjoyable listen nonetheless!

Thanks everyone for your comments. Saturday night made an attempt to
put down some vocals and was not very successful. So I called in the girls to have a crack at it because I'm so close to the vest on the producing end. I'll let them work on the song and see where it goes.

All I have to say is this one is like the Walton's theme song, you can't get it out of your head if you listened to it as a kid and will remember that it never had a voice track to it.

If anyone hears voices (Pun intended) on this one, be my quest and track the song and see what happens.

My vittles are your vittles, and please pass the potatoes:)


DA...
