I think the guitar play works really well with the drums and bass line! Ever thought of adding vocals to your songs?

Hi Alexander
Thanks for taking your time.
Making my own tunes I prefer working only with instrumental music.
I really like your "Storm"
Is it you on lead ?

Really nice playing and backing tracks! You've got a very melodic style that makes it easy to listen to. smile

The mix was a touch soft - at times the lead line felt like it was fading into the background.

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

Hi Firesong.
Thanks a lot !
The guitar is new for me. Its an SG Tribute. Very versatile, I think its gonna be my main guitar .
Yes, titles is harder than composing on instrumentals.
I don´t know why I connect Cleopatra to my music, but in my ears it has some antique flavour to the melody sound.
If you didn´t see it Im collecting my RB original tunes in the album "Minatures", and there I go for ONE WORD titles.
Maybe you could set up some similar restrictions for your song titles?

The album should be here:

Oh, my ears went right to that bass cuz that's my thing. But they didn't dwell there very long. Your masterful guitar work took them on a wonderful ride. And I couldn't stop at Cleopatra. Had to get a little more Volta, too. Great stuff, Stratos.


Enjoy whatever happens!

No, the plan is to use different singers depending on what I think fits the song.

Take some excellent backing tracks and add a sweet sounding guitar into the hands of someone who can really play and you get Cleopatra!

I really liked this song - excellent work!
