Hi, friends !
It has been just too long time since I was able to post
on the forum ! I truly regret that ! Earlier I was very much involved with
barbershop quartet singing and then there was the trip to Norway I
had to do together with Li - we had to do it before she had to undergo
hip surgery - you know when they take your leg off and put a titan ball upon
it before putting everything back ! So, dear friends, I have for the time being
been her nurse but luckily she´ll getting better day by day !
Talking about Norway, that most beautiful country of my ancestors, I just
finished an mp3 which I am displaying for you here as well as some
pictures from our most exciting trip to that National Park !
Recorded with mixcraft pro 8, comp and rev used.
The Style used is:_PUPLIFT.STY and the instros used are:
Bass: 1268, Synth Pad:1278, Drums: RD:s Praise Worship Uptempo
Guitar 1: 1272, Guitar 2: 1853, Guitar 3:1260 soloist
Vocal Aahs: 3063

Hi Dani,
This is very, very engaging.
I love the groove and your singing sits really well in the mix. In addition, your vocals are warm and comfortable on the ears. Congratulations on a fine job!
I hope that the land of Grieg was a wonderful adventure for you both
My best wishes to you and Li,
Noel
Dani,
So different from tunes I have heard from you! Love it! Sounds great in all respects. Vocals are A+. Norway is on my short list
Hope recovery goes fast for Li.
Thank you for sharing!
Misha.
Dani,
you've tamed almost all the isbilant sounds and seem to be singing in a register that fits like a glove.
ACE effort.
Hi, Noel !:))
Thank you so much for your
most kind words !:))
Grieg, yeah, it really
is Grieg country with
trolls behind every turn
(chuckle.There is also
the entrance to hell (helvete)
as the old vikings believed !
(more chucklin´).You can see
those giant potholes over
60 meters deep among my pictures !
Cheers
Dani
Hi, Misha !
Thank you so much for
your most kind response
to my tune !:))
If I were you, I´d surely
make that trip - the country
is absolutely fantastic !!!
Cheers
Dani
Very nice, Dani! You are showing your versatility here. I will be praying for Li. I had a total hip replacement about 6 years ago. Take good care of her, and make sure she does her exercises, and she'll be like new before long!
So nice to hear a new song from you!
Steve
Nicely done, Dani
It's a really cozy tune - your vocals work fantastically well with the instrumentation, and it's nicely catchy too. Thanks for sharing!
I liked it, all the elements fit together well and the result was very good.
Dani,
Good to see ya!
This might be my favorite of all your songs. Good tracks selection - good BAND. A lovely vocal... A good listen.
Best to Li...

Very nice arrangement, hard to categorize, so sounds quite unique. Your voice is very warm in this range. Never been to Norway, but you describe it and its beautiful nature in a very attractive way.

Hi Ray !
Nice if I did´nt
stumble on too many ssss:es
this time !:))
Thank you Ray, so very much for
your most kind words !
Cheers
Dani
Hi, Steve !
Thank you so much for
your most kind words !
You can rest assured that
I will take good care of my
sweetheart - she´s getting better
by the day but have some pain still!
Soon she will start undergoing
physiotherapy to get some more
movement into the leg !
You, Steve have gone thru these
phases so you really know what
a gruelling operation it is !
Hope you are allright yourself ?
Cheers
Dani
Talking about Norway
Not been around much myself due to … well life things.
This was not your normal stuff of the surfing era, But you know what I enjoyed this and it was just as good on my side.
Bon Voyage .
Very nice Dani. Liked the support vocals.
They really helped flesh the song out.
The bridge was also a great feature.
many thanks for listing. Rob4580
Not what I was expecting, but (as usual) a pleasant listen. I liked the use of the AAAHs.
Thanks for posting the pictures as well - a bit wet and grey, but looks like fun!
Dani,
This has a cool 80’s alt-pop vibe . . . love the band, and the backing vocals are nicely done. For me, I’d like to see the lead vox come forward just a touch in the mix, but that’s a subjective personal preference, so weigh it against other feedback and your own instincts. A lot of pretty flowers decorating the tune along the way—nice accents and depth on the instrumentation. Enjoyed it!
All the best,
Deej
Very nice Dani. You sound very nice in that register.
Your vocal, the write, the band and the mix are all excellent.
Enjoyed it and best to Li!
J&B
PS: Hey, even though I am a southern US guy almost all the DNA matches I get are from Scandinavian countries and particularly Norway. It is a lovely country that Janice and I should visit!
hi dani I love this so different from you I will pray for good and accurate medical attention eric
Somewhat different for you Dani, and VERY VERY GOOD!!! Really love the tune!! BGs worked great with your classic vocal style! WONDERFUL!! Take care. Greg
Hi Deryk ....and many thanks
for your most kind comments.
Cheers

My mother just got back from a trip to Norway to find and visit ancestors – definitely on my bucket list too, so your song title immediately piped my interest. Liked your deep vocal mixed with the harmony and “aahs”. Song evokes a magical image of the country. Well done.
Hi Dani,
this one is really different from the songs I've heard so far from you. But I must say that it's fantastic - took me right away with you. A very good flow, love the arrangement and the mix and I was impressed by your singing.
A great job, really!
All the best to you and most of all to Li - I'm sure within a couple of months she will be able to join the Hippy-hippy-shake contest. And, of course, will win it!
Chers,
Stefan
Lovely song Dani. Super vocal and backtrack. Guitar was a nice add
Dani, more quality work from you.
Clearly you've been busy in many ways. Best to you!
Trev
Hi, Tunemonger !:))
Thanks for your most
kind comment !
Cheers
Dani
Dani,
I really like your singing in any range- this is quite different from your surf tunes and showcases how good you sound in a lower key.
Good band to back you up and excellent use of the aaahs.
Wishing your Li a swift recovery.
Robert
