I loved the distorted lead - nicely done.

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

Wow! That is a very different production from you with the percussion, sound effects and distortion.

It is really well produced and played.

We enjoyed it!!!

Sergio,

Good to see you around again.

A terrific track. Nice melodic guitar line. And a really cool backing track.

Might be your all- time best. A good listen. Enjoyed it.

A bit of Neil Young in there! Some very nice melodic playing, phrasing and really nice tone (nice wah wah).
Certainly one of your best.

Man, I hear what Peter is talking about

I like it a lot too! ( I also love the turbulent/rumbling build of sound towards the end)

Sergio,

I love this newer approach to your music! This is excellent. Your guitar playing is terrific! I liked the drums almost as much - they left me with the impression of "marching along". Really, really nice! best to you.

Sergio,

I`ve always enjoyed the guitar tones and emotion in your playing- cool to hear you changing up the production to mix elecronic tracks with that amazingly "Neil" quality you bring to your melodies.
This is a very nice flight!

When I saw the title "Albatross" I immediately thought, "as in the bird?"

I was not disappointed when I saw the art selected for the song. Really great song, by the way. Thanks for sharing!

Great work Sergio! There's a lot going on here and you did a good job putting it all together! There change up to a quieter sound later in the song keeps the listener's attention. Nice distorted guitar tone! Thanks, Torrey

Sergio,
how did you achieve that fuzz distortion tone?
Interesting juxtaposition of rhythmic and melodic elements.


Cheers

Very cool song Sergio. I too got the Neil Young vibe as well. Backtrack was excellent. Loved the drum track you chose. I also agree that this is your best song posting.

Great production Sergio.

You are an outstanding guitar playing.

Love the balance and panning of the synths on this one. Great job.
