Hi, Chay. Pleasant listen, although I can't claim to hear the difference in swapping the channels.

Chay, this has a nice build and is both bouncy and energetic. Like the way you've mixed this, especially the placement of the lead guitar. Super job! Merry Christmas!

Hi, Chay. Pleasant listen, although I can't claim to hear the difference in swapping the channels. Thanks for listening David. Not hearing the difference re the channel swap is a no-brainer. The original was posted in September 23 and was deleted from YT before I uploaded the new one; ie: if I listened to a song a year ago and today heard it with channels reversed I'd not spot the difference. You'd have to hear both versions one immediately after the other, ideally with headphones on and the difference would be obvious.

Wow, so good, Chay. I dig the percussion on this version. The whole island feel is captivating. You sure make great use of these changes. You always do such a good job fashioning the best musicians, and each part goes so smoothly into the next. Man, this is so smooth, and I really enjoy how well you transition each part seamlessly.

Great mix and an engaging arrangement.
It had Janice foot tapping from the get go.
Excellent BiaB tracks that sound like a seasoned band.
The guitar solos were standout.
And the organ really added to the bouncy vibe.
Cool!

Chay,,As you might know, I'm a sucker for just about anything with a Latin/tropical vibe. And this one fills that niches very nicely. The lead guitar is special, as is your talent. Nice!
Happy new Year.
