Hello to all of you.
Finally, I've been able to post a new song; I've got a lot of busy time at work and some problems to be on the forum,
but now the situation seems to go better.

So I can dedicate a little of my time to do that I prefer: playing guitar.

Here's a country song I made some times ago:

IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD

Hi Sergio,

Nice playing! It has a bit of the sound of a Spaghetti Western movie with modern treatment. Thanks for a real nice listen. We enjoyed it a lot!

Hi Sergio,

Glad to have you back, because you've created a very nice and heavy guitar sound here!
The fiddle also works great.
This would fit right into a spaghetti western.
Very atmospheric! Probably one of your best.

Hi Sergio,

I notice you typically write catchy instrumentals. Do you mind if I make a suggestion? I think you could get more exposure if you added a creative commons attribution license to each of your songs so people who make videos could use them in their projects.

Instrumentals are perfect for setting the mood for a scene, and there is a large demand for such music across the full spectrum of genres.

An attribution license means that in order to use your song, the movie maker has to put your name in the credits. You don't make any money, but it can be a good way to get widespread recognition for your name
