Hy everyone, I wasn't able to put much effort in the forum the last couple of weeks. I am sorry for that. I will try to participate more, I promise! I have more time now. But what a load of songs you placed since. Couldn't you wait till I returned? On the other hand I was also busy making a new song. A Dutch one again. Like the song 'Weerzien' it is based on a poem from my late mother (I wrote some words as well). This one is called 'My letter'. https://soundcloud.com/user-296497130/mijn-briefIt is a Blues, but with some strings in it. I don't know if you can do that with Blues, but to me it sounds allright. The singing isn't so bluesy so Dutch people can understand it more easily and all others can just enjoy the melody. I translated the lyrics, but found it not so easy to do. Some words have a load or tension, that cannot be translated with the help of Google. I'm pretty sure in English there are better words to express what I sang in Dutch in some cases. Don't tease me with that, please... Enjoy, Hans

Ik raak alleen maar uitgedoofd Couplet Nee, jij weet nog niets van mij Alleen die ene brief waarin ik je schreef in die paar woorden over het gemis dat ik voel Ook al vind je dat IK moet veranderen Toch heb ik je lief Maar verdiep je dan ook eens in mij dat geeft ons leven weer een doel Refrein Anders wordt een nieuw begin heel moeilijk Als 'Vroeger' echt zo vastzit in je hoofd Ik weet niet of ik zo kan leven, want... ik word van mijn gevoelens beroofd Solo Nee, jij weet nog niets van mij Refrein Zo wordt een nieuw begin heel moeilijk Want 'Vroeger' heeft geen ruimte voor spijt Ik weet niet of ik zo kan leven, want... Ik raak mezelf dan echt kwijt Daarom is een nieuw begin ook zo moeilijk Maar zelfs al hebben we zeeën van tijd Ik weet dat ik zo niet wil leven, want... Jij raakt jij mij dan echt kwijt Ja, je raakt me echt kwijt... ================================== English Verse You still don't know me yet Only what's in that letter, I wrote you,in covered terms, about my intense loneliness No, you still you don't know yet Though you are dear to me I don't know if youcan understand, You seemed trapped in that old fight Chorus Than a restart of our relation will be so difficult If 'yesterday' stays stuck in your head I don't think I can live like this, because... all my feelings will die Verse No, you still don't know me yet Only that one letter in which I wrote in a few words what I really miss Even though you told me I have to change Still you are dear to me But try thinking about my needs as well It can give a direction for our life again Chorus Or else a restart of our relation will be too difficult If 'yesterday' stays stuck in your head I don't know if I can live like this, because... I'll be robbed from all my feelings Solo No, you still don't know me yet Chorus This makes a restart of our relation so difficult Because 'Yesterday' has no room for regrets I don't know if I can live like that because... I will lose myself That is why a restart of our relation is so difficult But even if we have lots of time I know I don't want to live like this, because... you really lose me yes, then you really lose me

Hans,
Interesting the way a different language leads to very cool phrasing surprises- no doubt they relate to the meaning for Dutch listeners- your vocal is strong with those edgy consonants you don`t hear in Anglais.
A good swampy backtrack and mix.
Is there a Dutch BiaB forum to share this?

Hans I really like this. Your vocal is really strong here. The mix is spot on also. I don't need to understand a vocal to know what is a great song and this is a great song.

Hans,
A cool sounding song. A lot of passion in the vocal.
The guitars sound good and the drums are at a good level.
The strings panned to one side sound "unbalanced" to me. Strings are typically spread across the stereo field - so you could play another track of the strings and put it on the other side for balance. A little thing. In BIAB if you have two tracks with the same RT, they usually will generate differing, but complimentary tracks - which can give you a really "full" sound for something like strings.
An enjoyable listen.

We always enjoy the soul you put into your vocals!
The production sounds good on our monitors.
You made nice use of those RT's and the RD/percussion loop.
There're no rules on what instruments to play with blues. They
either add to the blues feel or they don't. Everything in
your composition contributes to the bluesy feel and works
well with the vocal...great phrasing.
We enjoyed it!

Hi Hans, Another good song! I like the progression you are using, and I like that swampy blues style too, a perfect fit for the song. Nice vocal! I'll have my wife listen to it later, she is out at the moment. See how many words she can pick out

Hans, Cool collision of classic & modern styles. Very interesting arrangement. Your mixes are getting better. Vocals are clear, and sit well, but I would prefer them a little fuller (more lower end?) Unfortunately I am not knowledgeable enough to offer a suggestion. In my view, fun part of music making is to experiment, and in that you succeed  Thank you for sharing. Misha.

Hans,
I must be in an 80’s mood today, because this is the second song I’ve heard tonight that totally brings me back . . . this one a tad less so, but that bass vibe with that vocal—yeah, I’m there! Here, too, I wish I understood Dutch enough to appreciate this song in its natural language—but the translation works well. Nice production work, too—everything works great to my ear.
Hope all is well with you,
Deej

At first something in general: My translation of the Dutch lyrics was very bad. In my first post I replaced them with a -maybe- better version. It was still difficult to translate it into proper English. I am afraid there are still mistakes in it, but I think it's more easy now to follow what I sing. Now my reply to some posters: Hans,

Robert Hi Robert, yes, those edgy consonants... we are infamous on this, Im afraid. Although I now other languages that have a higher score on that scale. As far as I know there is no Dutch BiaB for songs. But be glad for that! Otherwise you would never hear them and I'm sure that is not what you want, is it? ;-) Thanks for the compliments! Hans I really like this. Your vocal is really strong here. The mix is spot on also. I don't need to understand a vocal to know what is a great song and this is a great song.
Hi Mario, You too must have had a hard time trying to understand what I sing/wrote. But it was about doubts we can have if we try to restart a relation when your partner can't get rid of the past. Whatever past that might be. But you couldn't care less, you like to listen to the melody, as I could read. Thanks for your compliments on that! I enjoyed reading your post. Hello Hans ...
This is a terrific song! This might be your best vocal ... of the ones I've heard. Love the mysterious backing tracks. Very nicely done! best to you. Be safe ...
Hi Al, thanks for the very nice compliments. I feel challenged now to make better songs with much better vocals, only to let you keep saying what you said about the vocals :-))
And stay safe too! Corona is hopefully leaving us soon. Not miraculously (as some hope), but perhaps because we are becoming more resistant.
Alan Hans,
A cool sounding song. A lot of passion in the vocal.

fj Hello floyd, thanks for the compliments, but more thanks for the listening and advise about the strings. I did some changings on that part. I had a feeling the strings started to annoy me and then you wrote about them! That's when I changed them: I did some changings of the chords, placed the stringstrack in the middle of the 'band' and two tracks on both sides with a modern sound that fits well with the strings. To me it felt as an improvement, so thanks Floyd.

Great arrangement, I enjoy especially the baritone guitar and those mysterious strings which reflect nicely the melancholy in the lyrics. I think the most famous use of strings in a blues song is The Thrill Is Gone by B.B. King. The loop is not to my taste here, maybe it is just mixed too front, but it is just very minor thing. Great vocals, all the dynamics and nuances come naturally in your native language.

A good friend of mine is an amazing violinist. Strings in blues is certainly allowed. hehe This is a very interesting song, Hans, and a very unique and enjoyable production. I love hearing the Dutch language. It reminds me of being there.

Hans,
I love that swampy guitar and vibe. It took a minute to hit me but once it did, man I was in the groove. And then that guitar solo in the middle - superb. All those instruments and sounds just came together brilliantly in your masterful hands. The sound of the Dutch lyrics really adds an extra "magic" to it also.
Great track!

J&B Hi J&B, thanks for your compliments! And it's good to point out that strings are no problems in a Bluessong. As you noticed, I would have tried them anyway. Boundaries are to be crossed, don't you agree? Hi Hans, Another good song! I like the progression you are using, and I like that swampy blues style too, a perfect fit for the song. Nice vocal! I'll have my wife listen to it later, she is out at the moment. See how many words she can pick out Hi Dave, of course I am curious if your wife understands something of the lyrics. Especially because I haven't used the words 'laughter' and 'red wine' in this one. And thanks a lot for your nice words about the song. It's you setting the bar high with your songs. I have to do my utmost to come near. Fortunately we don't have a contest on this! Hans, Cool collision of classic & modern styles. Very interesting arrangement. Your mixes are getting better. Vocals are clear, and sit well, but I would prefer them a little fuller (more lower end?) Unfortunately I am not knowledgeable enough to offer a suggestion. In my view, fun part of music making is to experiment, and in that you succeed Thank you for sharing. Misha. HI Misha, thanks for your nice words about the song. About the volume of the vocals; they were a bit fuller at first, but I hasitated and changed it. to me they came too much upfront (could be I'm still uneasy singing in Dutch). But who knows? Thanks all, Hans

Wow. Strings, pads, voices...everything worked under that bluesy guitar with those little hits peeking out between the muted licks, and bassline. As I read here recently. It's music. Of course it works. Everything is beautifully subtle and intimate when it should be reading along in my broken English. This sets such a great mood. I love to hear you sing, and I love your signature vocal "sound".
I really enjoyed this thoroughly.

I like your Dutch vocals, they grabbed my attention and really the strings played second fiddle if you'll forgive the pun. Thanks for supplying the English translation, that was helpful. Nice work, I enjoyed listening. If you sang in Dutch all the time, that would be fine with me.

You've become much more confident and solid in the vocal department.
You sound great - there're a few spots where hard sounds seem to distort a little bit but you're doing a fabulous job now.
The arrangement is cool - solid bass, drums and guitar with those little things going on to add lace to the sleeves.
Cheers
