Misha, all your stuff sound other worldly, none more than this. Super arrangement, instrument choices and vocals. It all just sounds so RIGHT. Cool narrative, too. There are about 15 seconds of dead air at the end of the track. Listened through a couple of times to see if maybe there was a sneaky robot in there, but sadly no. Great song, I really enjoyed it!

Wonderfully creative as always, Misha. Most enjoyable
Nice collaboration on the lyrics, Ray.
Read a fair bit of SF, including Asimov, as a teenager. He was quite the visionary.

That is a great lyric that hugely reminds us of our current sci-fi book about a runaway bot character searching for the truth about his past.

You and Ray make a creative team indeed.

The bossa RT’s with the resonator guitar work very well.
Love the bass too. And the synths are excellent as is the overall mix.

The heartfelt vocal is perfect for the lyric and vibe.

It was well worth the wait!

Misha and Ray:

Very cool stuff . . . love that opening. Engaging vocal, and some great lines in the lyric (particularly like “missing a critical screw”). Nice touch on the production with the Asimov insert. You’ve created a compelling picture of want and isolation—you really feel for that little lonely robot!. Really well done piece. Loved it!

Misha,

The lyrics are a bit strange.
Co-writing with Ray influenced them much?
The content of the lyrics is clearly conveyed.
Your vocals this time are especially wonderful.
That the melody is written in a minor key also fits them.
Enjoyed my listen a lot.

Best regards.

Hi Misha & Ray,

You have put a lot of work and creativity into this song - as you usually do.

I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Just one small comment:
The percussion panned to the centre conflicts with the vocals and I was keen to hear all the lyrics. Maybe pan the percussion left and right.

Best Regards
Nigel

Your music is always a refreshing look at a unique perspective on a style that is creative and damn near impossible to find anywhere else. And so well done.
It always reminds me of the music from a cirque performance.

S.A.,
Usually Misha will send me what ever he's done to date, I follow the theme, meter & rhyming scheme, write a couple of verses and choruses and leave it to Misha to pick out anything that is useful so the answer would be a resounding no. I get much, much more from Misha in such a process...guidance, example, role model...Misha is all of that.


Cheers

So who came up with with the subject for this? Kudos for both you and Ray for the lyrical story.
Another fine and interesting band you put together. I love the sound along with your vocal delivery.

Hi Misha and Ray,

A very good/cool song with funny things in it, I enjoyed my listen!
I heard a lot of nice instruments, but those bright sounding vocals were amazing.
Good work!
