Hi, friends ! Must say I´ve been away for too long really ! Have to tell you the reason: We were to have a reparation of the plumming system in our City House in Helsinki ! As we could not fly down to Spain to Marianico, we started to search for a summer cottage at a radius of 150-200 km:s from Helsinki, and finally after having seen at least 20 different places we found our little cosy cabin in Kiikala, Salo some 93 km:s from our city home ! ...and naturally we´ve lived there up til now mostly completely out of computers and other electronic devices than our mobile phones ! So, my friends, AS I am only starting to finish new material I thought I would post this older tune "Summer Is Gone" that I did write for quite a time ago ! It deals with the summer ending up here in the north and the crispy chilling fall coming in to replace it slowly but surely ! My apologizes for not having saved the lyrics separately but I think or at least I hope that you´ll be able to detect the words from the tune ! No info about the instros or styles either since they were on a computer that cracked up before saving ! Cheers Dani http://app.box.com/s/p7nnc67pwxoxhiw3nvuaoxmbm3542lmzAnd here is a picture of the view from our new summer cabin named Tallero, which means peace amongst the Pine trees ! http://app.box.com/s/86du17pzoxcwkdaxqveu4luwycz5pfbf

Another signature Dani, I have to admit that I always find your material intriguing and this is no exception.
Harmonies, and everything slotted together perfectly. Great backing, really enjoyable listen.
Nice, really.

Real nice melody. Liked the harmonies alot. Interest-holding movement of chords.
Enjoyed it.
Only constructive comment--I would have carried out the I-IV vamp to a fade at the end.
Thanks for posting!

Hey Dani, this tune really takes me back. Sounds like something I might have heard in the radio in the 70's. Beautiful harmonies and you've really captured a sunny, summery feel. I can just picture sun, clouds, hiking or picnicking on a grassy hillside.

Such a pleasant and mellow feel-good song. Your vocals are a stand out on this.
I enjoyed this very much!
Nice pic. I'm partial to the countryside.

Welcome back, Dani. Lovely gentle tune. Really enjoyed the harmonies. And nothing I like better than 'getting [myself] out in the crispy air.' The cabin looks to be in a beautiful spot.
Regards,
Leon

That was a pleasant listen! Exactly what I needed after weeks of smoke and haze here - a short vacation to a cabin surrounded by greenery.

Dani,
Your silky smooth layered harmonies and ever positive pop songs have been missed.
You deliver again with this- and I like that idea of offgrid cabin life!
