Scott, this is a super tune! Beautiful harmonic journey. The arrangement is very ethereal and a great pairing for the lyrics. Nice vocals and guitar work, too. The brief melodic figure at the end makes a nice coda. Sounded like a synth or FX-heavy guitar? Really love the stuff you and Robert are doing!

An other worldly sound and an almost ghostly vocal.
Weirdly wonderful, Scott and Robert.

Scott / Robert,
What a great sounding ethereal folk song. It has such an epic feel to both the lyrics and instrumentation. Love Robert's mysterious vocal and Scott's wonderful guitar work.
I always enjoy your music - great stuff!

Another winner from Scott / Robert
Scott's guitar really compliments Robert's almost ghostly like vocal.
Great harmony.
Sweet tone on that axe Scott.
Great mix also.
I want my last spoken words to be "I hid a million dollars under the........................"

Was so happy when Robert suggested we do one of his folk songs. yes the ending I incorporated a feedback effect on the last note of the song. Kind of felt like it was escaping into the either. Really glad you liked the song.

Hi Scott and Robert,
Very nice video and composition. It's well constructed. The harmony is gentle and combines mercifully with the images. What software do you use for video? In any case, it's a great achievement. I really enjoyed it.

Hi Scott,
I guess we had to warm up a little bit for this song.... .Until we got to the chorus!
Beautiful, dark and atmospheric like only Robert can sing them.
Complemented by Scott's wonderful, melodic guitar!

The dry guitar intro is beautiful. There is fragility in the voice and it works well.

Lovely song, lyrically and musically. I like that guitar break. Good video, too.

Lovely ballad, music is a beautiful painting and the poetic lyrics tell a story that has somehow quite a sad undertone. The intriguing chord progression and Robert's expressive vocal and harmonies create a unique world where Scott's guitar sounds like that foggy ferry. Spirit Level is not just music, it is a place in our souls.

Mesmerizing, ghostly, surreal atmosphere, which is mainly created by your vocals.
You would have been an interesting vocal addition to Pink Floyd, Scott.

Love the vibe, very easy on the ears. I really liked how the acoustic guitars sound panned L and R, especially in the beginning.

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."
