First song of the year from us, a ballad this time up. The land in you The Land in you (2019, Christiane Spruit) 1V so deep so endlessly deep trying to bring my hope down low to the vale in me 2 subtle moves we made a few between me and you love and the proof are we willing to lose CHORUS Oh does anybody know how can I find my way to the land in you 3 V fear and she always appears like a string of a lute makes the nightbird mute The band:RealTracks in song: ~700:Bass, Electric, PopHalfNotesPush Ev 085 RealTracks in song: ~2503:Piano, Acoustic, HeldChords 085 RealTracks in song: 2870:Piano, Acoustic, Rhythm CelticAirDave Ev 085 RealDrums in song:NashvilleEven16^3-a:Sidestick, HiHat , b:Snare, HiHat Open Mixed with reaper using plugins from waves and iZotope, mastered with Ozone. For those that interested in such things I'm using my tele for both guitar parts, rhythm guitar processed with the PRS amp sim, lead guitar processed with S-Gear. Both guitar parts also going through CLA-Unplugged. I got the inspiration for the intro guitar part from a Brent realtrack, 2448:Guitar, PopDreamyBrent, something I've never done before, but I'll probably do it again at some point. Sounded cool so I stole a couple of his licks, I don't think he will mind  Also up on soundcloud, here: https://soundcloud.com/blue-attitude/the-land-in-you-featuring-chris-spruitThanks to everyone who takes the time to listen and comment, we appreciate it!

Dave, very deep song. Great vocals, arrangement and mixing. And those guitars....! Great solo! I would like to hear drums more pronounced. This is a thought from casual listener, not somebody who knows  Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Dave / Chris,
Awesome song! Love the title and lyrics...
The tele sounds tremendous and the vocal is stellar. It has a fragile almost glass like quality. Simply outstanding!
Loved it!

This has a very nice dreamlike quality. I like the way your guitar answers the vocal in parts of the verse. Top-notch vocal. A very listenable (over and over) creation.

Hauntingly beautiful Dave! Love those minor chord changes in the verses! Great vocal from Chris! Her voice is such a perfect fit for your work! Loved that guitar tone and little quiet guitar parts in the background.....they are so sweet and really help make this track! I always love everything you do! Thanks, Torrey

Dave,
The title image is evocative and I liked the melody and vocal interpretation; soaring on the chorus with Christiane sounding almost ethereal. The highlight for me is your guitar on this ( I thought that intro was an RT`til I read your notes)... its all so subtle and supportive of the song! Well done to you both.
Robert

Cool indeed. lovely song and the arrangements are the right setting. The voice suits the lyric and the melody suits the feel - well done.
Nice guitar tone and just the right amount of delay. It may be worthwhile trying to lower the click in the kick drum during the rim shot/side stick sections as they have the click & tap have a lot of frequencies in common.

Very impressive, a great feel combines the music and vocals just perfectly, all delivered at a perfect tempo.
The mix is superb, nothing out of place, nothing that shouldn't be there, and nothing missing. A great production.

Dave, great job using the held chords in the verses and the busier piano in the choruses. The vocals are a spot on match to the lyrics and the guitar tone and touch works to perfection. You two are on a big roll with some wonderful songs. The mix is right there. Great stuff,Tom
