I had to go to another browser to play anything that's in Soundcloud. I'll have to fix the problem later. Enjoyed listening once I got there. I like the electric piano and guitar you used and the vocal is very nice. Good mix and lyrics.

Dave, this is really good and goes so well with your vocal style. Your choice of instruments is spot on. Good write, mix and performance.

Hi David.

This is seriously cool. Shades of Al Jarreau in there.

Lovely choice of instruments and all working well together in the mix.

Great lyrics and an excellent vocal track just put the finishing touches to a super song.

What a cool tune!! I love the stream of consciousness flow of the lyrics and the laid back groove. It's kind of a Hop in your car on Sunday morning with no particular plan and go kind of song. Really enjoyed this one!! Take care. Greg

David,

This is excellent! In all regards.

The write is superb. Natural, comfortable, Interesting, well developed. Your best, I think.

The production is awesome. Full sounding and never crowded at all. Ear candy.

Great mix. Wonderful vocal! Everything about this sounds like it "happened magically".

Big-time kudos on this!

What the heck can we add to that?
The production shines -- the soundstage is
IMO mixed perfectly for the style.

Everything works and works well.

Enjoyed the spin!

Hi Davis ...

This is beyond cool! Nice selection of tracks and perfectly balanced and mixed. A little modern R&B and Jazz rolled into one. Sounds like a mix of Al Jarreau and Steve Tyrell.

Nothing not to like and everything to savor! Great job ... kudos!

Great tune! Sounds like late-70s NYC-based TV theme show music (in a good way). This is your song, yes?

You have a really good voice and vocal delivery. You should push yourself just a bit more forward in the mix.(Sometimes hard to do, I know, when someone mixes their own voice.)

Critically:

I think there is too much reverb on that guitar; personal preference, but I think it makes it loose impact by sounding more distant and wet.

Also, there is something shadowing your voice sometimes, not sure if it's a doubling effect, a harmony mixed low or what, but I think it gets used a bit too often. I'd also venture that your voice doesn't really need support, if that was your intention.

David,

I was with you all the way! This is great. You're really settling in with BIAB now. As others have noted before me, there's a heck of a lot to like about this. The smooth jazz vibe really suits you.

All the best
Noel

Agree with Floyd - think this is the one I enjoyed of yours most so far.
Posted By: RnAM Re: What I Know - 02/01/16 04:47 PM
Wow David, this reminds us of Herman Brood!
He used to be a famous rock star here in Holland (died about 10 years ago).
Just for fun a link to one of his SONGS
We like the vocals and the Smooth Cool Style you used here.
