Hello folks. I'm new around here. And, thought I'd post something that I've done recently. The music tracks all originally came from BIAB (2019). My production is most always using Reason as my DAW.

Really like it when a plan comes together so quickly. Especially if it takes a different path that turns out to be the "right" one. smile Thanks to George Schiessl for vocals and Tom H for his lyric. Some of you might get a kick out of this one.
Regards,
BW@

This was a collaboration done on the Kompoz site.

Bobby,
Good topical lyrics, a clear, fun vocal and production sounds fine ( is that a phased effect on the guitar?
Well done to you coworkers and welcome to the forum!

No Phaze on the guitar Robert.
A Softube Saturation Knob and Tsar-1r reverb and an echo module native to Reason.
Thanks for the flowers.

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

Hi Bobby,

welcome to the Forum. And if this song ain't a great hostess gift.

Good driving country-rock, love that Sothern accent (I guess the strongest one heard here in quite some time...). Good chord progessions, great backing track and I like the way you sing.

Good job !

Cheers,

Stefan
