This is a really hypnotic song Robert.
I loved everything about this one.
Great vocals and mix.

Going in to it thinking about a James Bond theme song, this is definitely what I heard as soon as Spellbound loaded and started playing. It has a really smooth feel to it. Love it. Thanks for sharing! Ember, I`m happy I didn`t overreach by saying it was written with Bond in mind -thanks for your comments. "Robertkc" and "ScottC"...
This "Spellbound" of yours sounds like something out of a dream, wholly created in the imagination. The lyrics are a kaleidoscope of riotous images and deliciously obscure meanings that swept me along on a ride through another reality. As "floydjane" commented, these are "lyrics that take one's mind to a million different places."
It's funny that you wrote that the song is "as close to a James Bond theme song write as I'll probably get", because as I was listening to it I envisioned a boldly colorful, surrealistically composed main title for a movie, such those created by the late Maurice Binder for many of the James Bond films.
Your RealTrack assembly is quite eclectic and offered up a fluid, yet funky rhythmic texture under a hypnotic and mystically harmonized melody.
This is imaginative, heady music-making , gentlemen! Where will you take us forum members next???
Dazzled,
LOREN Loren, I figured the Elephant Train line would be a"what`s that?" moment and left it in ( I believe its a Congolese cocktail served in place of James` martini). Your reviews are awesome!! I feel honoured to have you describe your impressions of our song in your unique way. Robert Hey Robertkc, this was swell! Good choice of instruments here and very easy to listen to. The drum beat specifically is quite crunchy and good use of effects on the vocals. Well done! Thanks for the positives, Joe! Robert

A very accomplished piece Robert, with clever lyrics and inspired choice of RTs. The production is just right, overall a very atmospheric piece. Thanks for sharing!
John John, Thanks for the listen and positive comments. Quite spellbinding!! Really like the way you used the percussion on this. Vocals are wonderful (love the double tracking)! Beautiful guitar work from Scott!! Excellent work all the way around!! Take care. Greg Greg, I think the all-electronic loops percussion is a first for me - I`m glad you liked it and appreciate your support for our collaboration. Robert and Scott,
Very nice Bond's theme! The atmosphere has come out very well. Scott's guitar is always wonderful but it is much better than usual this time in this tune. The collaboration between you two really works well. Great use of loops and effects every time. Enjoyed my listen a lot.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi Thank you,Shigeki! Robert

Hey, after you mentioned the James Bond theme we went in with that and couldn't shake it! Now all we can see is a lady swimming underwater as the credits roll "truth lives in the myth dies in the details you soar when they fall apart there are no rules to your sport you want everything and a witch to stir the sin" Verse one is worth the price of admission alone...wow!!! It's all been mentioned but the production is outstanding -- different in a very good way. We love the percussion. And the vocal. And the guitar. Cool to the max and, as always, thought provoking. J&B PS: And reading the lyric with the bom, bom? Well that's Bud's initials so we were even more locked in! J&B, That bom bom vocal thing was intended to sound more tribal than I made it... a bridge to far, but otherwise its good to have your approval on the song and especially the production. Thank you for that swimming lady image! Robert Robert / Scott,
Wow! Love this! You have really captured the feel of the Bond music, but with your own unique twist - outstanding stuff...
Bob Bob, Thanks for your thumbs up. Robert

Very nice, a little different from your usual songs. Excellent Scott's Gretsch's sound.
Very pleasant listen.

This definitely has that dark mysterious Bond element. I enjoyed the dreamlike lyrics and they were very well sung. Scott adds a complimentary and atmospheric guitar to it that is just right. I enjoyed, Tom
