Joyful journey and a lovely landscape. The arrangement is lush and exciting, each instrument is like a living creature. Enjoyed the beauty of the lead voice and the violin that seems to speak in magical language. Thanks for another epic visit to colorful Marioland. Janne

This is revolutionary! Great groove with a message including many good advices and nice lines like "Says the future's coming but he's right on time", all in the smooth 70's soul style. Nice chording, excellent selection of soulful instruments - the solo guitar fits very well. And the vocals are very enjoyable - an excellent performance of your trademark vocals, with effective dynamics and transitions between sung and almost spoken style. Janne

Thanks B.D.! Thanks for the compliments on my voice too! I would never compare myself to her but I was leaning toward an Olivia Newton-John vibe on the vocals as she was my first singing inspiration, although, I've also "learned" from a lot of other female and male artists that I was a fan of. I never had vocal lessons, so I just learned to emulate others' vocals.

This 18th century poet is lost for words. You have great songwriting sense Izzy, melodically, lyrically and vocally. This is yet another great song, I am so jealous of your talent. Terrific mate. An 18th-century poet at a loss for words? I should probably frame that sentence and hang it on my wall. You’ve certainly written a better review than I could have written a sonnet. And Lee, don’t be jealous! I’m still currently in the ‘writing songs while staring blankly at a wall’ phase of my process, so believe me, there’s plenty of frustration to go around. Truely, thanks for the support Lee......it means a lot! best regards Izzy.

I'm at a loss why this stunning song has scrolled to the wasteland of page 3 without a single comment. Love the concept, how did you come up with a half dragon, half dragonfly? Just brilliant. "How to get to make the contact" is a bit awkward, "how to make contact" would've worked fine instead. This was a terrific track, Christian, well done! I agree, this deserves more listens. Nice chilled arrangement, not overproduced. The melody is really beautiful. I wish I could write melodies like that. Good rhyming in the lyrics. The Suno vocal is lovely and smooth like a nice cappuccino. My only criticism - the vocal is always quite up front and at the same even ultra-professional level - perhaps due to compression ? - which is nice, but if you varied it a bit by easing off the compression and/or varying the volume a bit here and there (e.g raising it a bit on key words; raising in the chorus) it might give some variety which could make it more engaging. Something I use for this is a free plugin called Proximity (Tokyo Dawn) which allows you to virtually make, for example, a singer sound like they are further from or closer to the mic - which is not just about volume. (If you get it, forget the manual, it's insanely complex; just pull the big white slider up and down to simulate the distance. You will need to add a gain plugin after it to compensate for the volume drop) Anyway, this was great to listen to.

Great percussive intro. Déjà vu all the way through this as if I've heard it before and already responded to it. Love the horns and the brief breaks. In some parts it sounds like a TV series theme, but I've no idea what genre.

This thread is a fine example why a slow rebuild should be automatically performed after a fresh install or build update. Yes. I've been recommending this. Andrew did comment that not all updates would need it, but if it does change the styles in any way, it should be automatically done as part of the update.

You can find the alternative version from 2010 on my website. I almost forgot that I actually made a video. This was my old studio at the other house. Obviously a younger version of me too. Ok first - This is a great song! Lyrically very good! I'm actually adding this to a play list. Guitar and keys are perfect for the mood of the lyrics! Second I have to say, after I listened too all three, IMHO, *This* version is the best of the three, and my favorite. I like your voice and getting to watch you perform the different parts really got me into the song! Nicely done! I'm unsure why you went with an AI voice as your vocal suits the song so well and brings life to the "feeling" of the song. Anyway, great writing and super performance!

Fans of heavier styles will love our new glam metal (13), capturing the flashy, high-energy sound of ’80s arena-ready guitar rock. We also have a set of rootsy modern-folk rock (18), with a warm, organic sound combining contemporary folk textures and driving acoustic strumming.

There are more country songwriter styles (8) that provide intimate, rootsy foundations for storytelling and modern Americana writing. Finally, we have “background soloing” acoustic guitar (12) with Brent Mason — simpler, but still very tasty acoustic lines designed to sit beautifully behind vocals or act as a subtle standalone solo part.
