You should be proud of this one - thanks for sharing smile


Thanks Deryk for your kind words smile I tried to get some esoteric feel with that sitar, I'm glad you liked that selection.

This is really interesting and well worth a couple of listens. The choice of instruments worked well. I particularly liked the sitar echoing the tramlines. The sw16 drums worked a treat as well.
The slightly stilted vocal delivery added to the trippy journey.
Cheers,
Mike


Thanks Mike, your words are really rewarding to me smile I like to step outside the box, not following conventional paths laugh

Perfect tune for aliens!
P.S. Sitar was a great choice.

Thanks Ray for your kind feedback smile I hadn't paid attention to the rim shots, but now that you mentioned they began to disturb me, how selective our hearing can be smile

Hypnotic and richly textured. And classy.

Productions of this style and quality amaze us. Soooooo many things to get "right."

You did an incredible job with the arrangement, the band and the vocals.

Wow!

I missed this the first time around, so I'm glad I got to hear it this time.

The sitar gave it a bit of a Steely Dan feel, and the backstory made it even more enjoyable. Pretty funny. smile

Vocal control, you say. Never heard of it. Is that some kind of ProTools thing?

Yes, this has something intriguing about it, to me it seems you were at a creative height with it despite structural conventions. Vocal got you by and made the song work well and not distract.

Nice composition and production, I like the way you bring in the various instruments.
Vocal also works very well I think.
Maybe my favorite of yours that I have heard so far, well done!

Dave said just what I was thinking. This is very cool! Well mixed.

Thanks Janice and Bud, I really appreciate your positive feedback smile I have come back to this song and arrangement several times, maybe that's why the arrangement has evolved into the quality you are talking about smile
