Caught Out in the Rain THANKS for all the listens and encouragement! I might get the hang of this stuff yet... I start this tune with the sound of rain, so I feel a little silly saying that I've always thought the "rain" here is a metaphor. Or...maybe not. Hope you enjoy it either way. Stay dry out there! Lyrics: R.W. Davis Vocals: D.A. Hughes Me: Incidental guitar licks and other stuff Style is _GO.STY (Go Low Folk Rock Quartet) with a few other RTs added on top RealTracks in style: 2903:Bass, Acoustic, BluesyPopByron Ev 100 RealTracks in song: 2524:Bass, Electric, FunkHalfNotePulseSync Ev16 100 RealTracks in style: ~896:Guitar, 12-String Acoustic, Rhythm FolkRock Ev 100 RealTracks in style: 3716:Guitar, Baritone Acoustic, Rhythm AmericanaFolkStrum Ev 110 RealTracks in song: 3345:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm HazyRockFuzz Ev16 095 RealTracks in song: 3346:Guitar, Electric, Rhythm HazyRockAmp Ev16 095 Loop in Song: AcousticDrumFullKit\Funk Rock - chillos_100a ev16.wav RealDrums in style:NashvilleEven8^5-a:Snare, HiHat , b:Snare, Ride Caught out in the rain With so far left to walk To get to the train You know, it’s not your fault You cry to the wind And simply close your eyes They open again To see the stormy skies You must make it work No matter the cost You’ll only get hurt Or you will get lost You wander down the one-way street You find it going west not east You turn around What’s that sound? You can’t make it out You’re havin’ some doubt You see the water circlin’ the drain You’re caught out in the rain, caught out in the rain The cars all start to hydroplane You’re caught out in the rain, caught out in the rain Thought you’d be clever And cut through the alley But all this weather Is turning out badly Your boots get so wet And splash in the puddle You’ll never forget You’re in so much trouble You must make it work No matter the cost It clings to your shirt Like an albatross You run on down the busy street Past the buildings and concrete You spin around What’s that sound? You can’t make it out Like a muffled shout They’re hidin’ behind the windowpane You’re caught out in the rain, caught out in the rain It feels more like a hurricane You’re caught out in the rain, caught out in the rain Bought you a raincoat That was yellow but clear With a matching tote Then the clouds disappear The sun starts to shine And it is yours alone You glance at the time As you walk on home… You must make it work Caught out in the rain Caught out in the rain Caught out in the rain You must make it work No matter the cost

Nice work. It has an 80s pop rock feel. I like the singers voice.
I enjoyed the listen.
You can find my music at: www.herbhartley.comAdd nothing that adds nothing to the music. You can make excuses or you can make progress but not both. The magic you are looking for is in the work you are avoiding.

Hi Ron,
As Herb said, a strong 80s feel. I particularly like the phase shift by one of the guitars at just the right places. Your vocalist has the perfect voice for this. I'm really liking the subtle variations in the backing tracks. A pretty catchy tune - had to listen twice. Nicve work!

I probably fussed over long on it so good to get feedback. Dusty did nail the vocal (again). Glad you liked it!

Good melody and arrangement.
A bit heavy on the kick but that's just my preference.

Very well done, Ron. Yes! You have the hang of this for sure. Good write and D.A. Hughes sings R.W. Davis's lyrics to life. Rain IS a metaphor -well, caught out in the rain is- and it fits so well. What a catchy hook you have there. Metaphor aside, I can see someone skipping around in puddles when suddenly caught out in the rain and enjoying it while singing this song. Could be a Fred Astair follow-up.

I may do the video one day if I catch up with AI...

Still sounding good on third listen! Alan, I can't be responsible for the side effects from prolonged exposure. Ha! Thank you for the compliment, so glad you are enjoying the tune. But do stay dry!

Another good song! Well written, and man, love the vocal!
The fills are very effective, nice playing, and I love the way you are panning them.
Good stuff!

There's nothing to say that hasn't already been said: good vocals, good song, good production with some cool ideas.
Keep up the good work!

Ron,
You are making a fan out of me.
Everything about this is good.
Excellent punkish-Pop write.
The BAND is perfect.
Terrific Pop vocal, too. Not everyone can pull that off. (not many)
Great use of BIAB.
The combination of bass & drums is Superb. (How are you processing your drums?)
I'm glad you came back around. I am thoroughly enjoying the Music you create.

Hi, Ron. Fun song. Catchy and poppy. Clever write, with some great lines. My favorite: You wander down the one-way street
You find it going west not eastOf course, if you're "caught out in the rain", you're on foot so it doesn't really matter if the street is one-way, does it?  I enjoyed this one a lot!

Another good song! Well written, and man, love the vocal! The fills are very effective, nice playing, and I love the way you are panning them. Good stuff! Dave, THANKS for the listen and your thoughts on the fills. I'm a less-is-more first guy and was concerned the panning fills might be too much. But then again, I thought they sounded cool in the context of a disorienting rainstorm. Glad they (and the song) worked for you! There's nothing to say that hasn't already been said: good vocals, good song, good production with some cool ideas. Keep up the good work! B.D., thanks for the listen and encouragement! The bar around this forum is ridiculously high, which is good motivation to try to keep my stuff to the requisite quality. Ron, You are making a fan out of me. Everything about this is good.

(How are you processing your drums?) I'm glad you came back around. I am thoroughly enjoying the Music you create. fj Floyd, thank you for the generous comments! The vocalist (Dusty) has great pipes but also a nuanced musical touch. I love everything he does. Drums and percussion are generally the only BiaB instruments I process. The drums are processed through a Studio One effects chain titled "S1 Drum Group", consisting of a multiband equalizer and a multiband compressor. The magic is in the compressor settings. I like the way it makes the upper frequencies pop without sizzling, and gives the toms more depth. (These are my imprecise interpretations of what I hear). Once I put this chain on the drums, I'll generally adjust the drum track level until the snare sets about right in the mix, and if everything else in the kit sounds good I'm done. Thanks again for the input. Am having a blast with everyone on the forum... Hi, Ron. Fun song. Catchy and poppy. Clever write, with some great lines. My favorite: You wander down the one-way street You find it going west not east Of course, if you're "caught out in the rain", you're on foot so it doesn't really matter if the street is one-way, does it? I enjoyed this one a lot! David, thanks for the listen, so glad you liked it! My lyricist, being a big fan of lyrical ambiguity, will seldom interpret his lyrics, so I do it myself: The pedestrian is walking to the train station, which is to his east. But he is disoriented by the rain, and realizes the street he is on is NOT the one going east to the train station, it is going west, and he is lost. At least that's the way I story boarded it in my head. I may do that dang video yet. Ha!

"You see the water circlin’ the drain
You’re caught out in the rain, caught out in the rain
The cars all start to hydroplane
You’re caught out in the rain, caught out in the rain"
Cool imagery!
Vocals, write, mix and an engaging arrangement are all hittin' the note.
Really good use of those RT's and your bits.
A lot tracks but all is open, airy and sets up an excellent soundstage on our monitors.
Those RD's pop!
Great listens,
J&B
Our albums and singles are on Spotify, Apple Music, Amazon Music, YouTube Music, Pandora and more. If interested search on Janice Merritt. Thanks! Our Videos are here on our website.

You had to go back a few days to find this one in the forum listing. Glad you enjoyed it! Lots of panning and leveling going on in the mix to keep everything clear. The two basses are actually trading places several times. There are some notes further up about the drum FX chain in Studio One. It does a subtle magic that I keep going back to. THANKS AGAIN!!!
