The change at 1:40 is so darn good... as is the vocalist`s phrasing, the bass and everything else.
Terrific collaboration!

Hi rayc,

Thanks for your initial kind comment.

You have often criticized my tracks and most of the time you have been absolutely spot on with your critique (and I have learned a lot from you... thanks for that).

This time, though, I have to disagree with you... I think the "lengthy bass centred solo" works fine.. it is not a uncommon thing to do in jazz music... could it be that your comment is born out of your dislike of the genre in general?

Thanks again for always giving feed back to my tracks! I really appreciate it!

Hello Will and Heidi,

THAT IS JUST AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

What a collaboration ... Will, the tune alone is extremely well-written and brought to musical life; your usage of BIAB has become galactic to me already a long time ago, but this one is so real... just like sitting in a bar, eyes closed and getting carried away by what you hear-

And what an unbelievable winndfall that you two found each other ! Heidi - you sing this in the most impressive way, it's just terrific!

I do hope that you will work together also in the future, because that would be an enormous benefit for this forum.

All the best for 2020, and, please: Keep 'em coming!

Stefan

Excellent mix - clear and balanced. Great vocal. Like being in the room, without the distraction of the crown.

I'm sure there were lyrics, but to be honest I was too distracted by the jazzy sound to pay much attention.

I love it when a song carries me away to somewhere else, and this one certainly did. laugh

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

Thanks a lot for listening, Peter! I hope you are doing well "down under"... the pictures I see in the news are just like watching a horror movie... It must be a nightmare to live close to all those fires.

Take care,

Hi Stefan,

I hope you are doing well!

Thank you for your kind comments! We are pretty satisfied with the track, but it is of course always nice when somebody else like it too.

Thanks for listening!

Wow - I thoroughly enjoyed this one. It has a fantastic groove and I love how smooth it is. It flows like water, and the vocals are stunning here.

You should both be proud of this one - thanks for sharing!
