Thanks Bob Glad you like the song. Glad you liked the mix too. I had about 5 guitar tracks on this and the mixing took quite a bit of time and experimentation..

Thanks for sharing!


Thanks Ember. Glad you liked the song. It was definitely a labor of love.

Exactly what I thought: What struggle? I love the way the melody echoes!! One of my faves of yours. I hate to wish for you to struggle, but if this is the result, your struggles are worth it!! Take care. Greg

Scott,

Resurrections around this time of year are generally considered a good thing! smile This one is no exception . . it sounds really slick to me . . . I don’t generally gravitate to instrumental songs, but this one kept my interest—crisp and engaging. Smooth and skillful production. Cool tune!

All the best,

Deej

It may have been a struggle, but it sure is easy listening.

I did find the drums a bit distant, but I really like your use of space between those tasty guitar runs.

Congrats on that double-neck.

I believe it was worth it. Nice tune and beautiful guitar playing! It is begging for lyrics!

P.S. Is the double neck guitar pictured on soundcloud is the one you mentioned in your post?

Thank you for sharing!

Misha.


Thanks Misha Glad you liked the song. That's interesting you mentioned could be a fit for lyrics. My buddy Robert is on hiatus right now so maybe his will checking and have an idea for the song. He is so good a coming lyrics for about any vibe.
Yes this is the guitar in the picture I was describing in the initial notes. When I saw the peace sign on it, it took me back to my younger days in the late 60's. I always wanted a guitar with a peace sign on it since I saw Alvin Lee's 335 in the Woodstock movie. I just couldn't bring my self to put a sticker on one of my guitars

Thanks for sharing smile


Thanks so much Derek I appreciate your comments. Glad you liked the song.

As I replied on your Soundcloudsite I wish I could play that leadguitar like you. Seemingly without any effort whatsoever.
And the sound is great.
Would you like to make a Metal-song with me ;-)

Thanks Scott
Hans


Thanks Hans for checking out the song and the kind words. No much a metal player. I like the genre but never really got the chops for the fast shredding songs.

Thanks Noel for checking out the song. Your comments are appreciated and I am glad you liked the song..

It's two thumbs up from me!

Scott,
Very cinematic - I like the way Janne put it; the "conversation of the guitars" makes this work very well.
I`m ever willing to come out of my cave to see if I hear words to go with your guitar lines;these dreamy sounds seem just fine as is though.

Robert

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."

Our Customer Service hours this weekend are:
