That's what I was missing Dani. One of your cool surfing tunes. Super listen on a Friday night. Super vocal and harmonies. Excellent backtrack. Mix was excellent

This mix sounds good to me. (I didn't hear the other one either). Is that you with the bass line "ooo mau maus"? Nice. The whole composition was an enjoyable listen. Was the line "Can you feel how excitement grows the closer we get" a deliberate double entendre? Ha!

Hi, Floyd !:))
Thank you so much for
your most kind comments
really much appreciated !:))
I thought that the earlier mix
did not do the tune justice,
so I just had to remix it
altogether !
Cheers
Dani

I don't remember this one either, but I REALLY like it!! Wonderful vocals! Love the harmonies and the MOW MOW! How many octaves of range do you have? Very cool song, so well delivered. Take care. Greg

I like the fact that it definitely has that surf feel, but you doesn't try to sound like the Beach Boys, but have a very own style. And it's a tune with a very lovely melody. Very< good. Stefan
