Ups and Downs

Just a song that I had fun doing.
Those are our two dogs, Giget and Penny.

BiaB style - Question = Smooth Jazz
Tempo - 70 BPM

Base - Ample Bass - preset - J-Bass
Piano - Keystone Classic - preset - Basic EP
Guitar - AAS String Studio VS-3 - preset - Journeys
Strings - SynthMaster - preset - BT Polychrome choir
Drums - a GM soundfont - standard kit

I am playing my HB guitar and via my wind controller the flute.

Compression, and Raum reverb was added to several tracks.


Whenever I get something stuck in the back of my throat, I dislodge it by drinking a beer.
It's called the Heineken Maneuver.

This is SO beautiful! You are a genius :-) Often, just two simple chords alternating, and yet it held my attention completely from beginning to end because you've made it into such a beguiling, beautiful track. That's where the "genius" part of things lies, in my humble opinion ... in that ability to create something so, so mesmerising. I really enjoy hearing what you create - keep creating and keep posting :-) Thanks!!!

Mario,

A truly enjoyable listen. Well done.

Good mix.

Your flute is exceptional. So much "feeling" to the playing...

Nice.

Mario,
The space this gives your guitar and wind controller to roam is just right- very nice contrasting tones and textures.
I enjoy your improvisations!
Those two cute guys are all attention as well.

WOW, thanx for this review. But I am no genius. I'm just a guitarist hacker who likes to have fun with sound.

Thanx so much Robert for listening and commenting. Space is just as, if not more, important than notes. Thanx for noticing that.

Excellent. I loved that shimmering crystal tone from the guitar.

Relaxed feel to it.

Not surprisingly your guitar sounds terrific and,
man, that flute is over the top good. Amazingly
expressive.

As is the entire production.

Well done Mario!

Thanx for this kind review and especially for the flute comment. I am trying to get more realistic sounds from the wind controller.
