Hello, forum friends After a little blank, I would like to post my song again. This song is written for the latest recording session of our music circle in this summer. I would like to introduce you my newest recording in the session. Any comments encouraged. Always welcome. Best regards. Shigeki Adachi Title: 愛の旅人(Translation: A Traveler Following Eternal Love) Accompanied with the live band by Yamaha Teachers and the jazz big band style horn section from the BIAB MIDI styles. Style is BBND_FST.STY Style MIDI Instruments are: Solo Trumpet: Soloist database Whnt.ST2 Sax(66) assigned to Sax section, Brass(62) assigned to 4 trumpets & 4 trombones, Solo Trumpet, Sax section & Brass section played with EastWest Quantum Leap Brass and EastWest Hollywood Pop Brass Vocal: Natsuki, my music friend Link: https://soundcloud.com/animarorecords/eternal-travelerSummary of lyrics While many seasons pass me by I have been looking for your trace And now I am counting stars scattered in the night sky Why had I encountered with you Though there were millions of people in the world And, why my heart is still tied with you In spring we kissed cherry blossoms fluttering lightly In summer we gave cold drops to moisturize our burned skins How bright our lives were shining What a coincidence our encounter was What should I call it if it was not love In autumn I will dance waltz alone with my tears In winter I will need some one’s hot breaths to my frozen cheeks Who am I wandering over seasons to go by I am an eternal traveler in pursuit of impossible love

Wow, that's a lively, fun run through the jungle.
Sensational vocals and arrangement.
My only nit is that the solo horn at the intro don't sound quite real.
Otherwise absolutely fabulous.
Cheers

A dynamic and fast paced production ,a little more dynamic than what we normally hear from you.
Quite enjoyable.

Love the changes, Shigeki. What a wonderfully snappy song. An interesting diversion from what I've come to expect from animarorecords, and it shows your wonderful musical diversity. Natsuki delivers a soaring vocal in this outstanding production. I'm not sure --it might be me-- but I hear a low rumble during the solo. Man, I love that bass.

Shigeki Adachi,
This is a pretty cool song with a nice drive, and I think the way you put in the solos sounds really authentic.
Good singer, too.
And the mix is of your usual high standard.
Very well done!

Hi, Shigeki. I always enjoy your songs. This is upbeat and punchy. Excellent singing by Natsuki and I really like the brass section. As rayc noted, the solo trumpet sounded synthetic, and more so because everything else sounded so real in comparison. Still, great work!

Hi Shigeki Adachi.
Wow!!! This is action-paced music! It reminds me of the Big Band era of jazz. You've done an amazing job. When I closed my eyes, I could see everyone performing on stage because it was so realistic.In addition, Natsuki's singing was incredible. She's a world-class vocalist. I'm in awe of your musical ability. You truly are a gifted songwriter and musical arranger.
All the very best,
--Noel

rayc,
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune, Natsuki's vocal and my arrangement.
Thank you for pointing out the solo trumpet.
Expressing solo trumpet with MIDI is more difficult than expressing brass section, so I would like to make it my future challenge.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi

Marty,
Thank you very much for taking the time to listen and comment.
I am really glad you like this tune and Natsuki's vocal.
You are truly a seasoned bassist. You can immediately hear the bass line.
The rumble in the background of the guitar solo is the sound of the drummer hitting the bass tom.
I am always very encouraged by your kind words.
Best regards.
Shigeki Adachi
