Thanks Scott...yeah, the voice of Kevin will sing in falsetto in his higher range...I love that...thanks...Dan

Professional song in every way. Uplifting message soaring on the wings of the hymn. The chords and the melody with the modulations are really skillful work. The singers deliver the emotion beautifully and naturally from the heart. The harmonies are honey to my ears. And the band supports the other elements splendidly, feels like they have played together for ages.

If you were singing this on stage with your guitar along with the backing tracks the vocals would convince an audience humans were behind the curtain!

Lovely opening by “Sarah” especially and the harmonies are so tight.

That piano is very good as is the entire session group ... and the mix.

The power ending sounds great.

Well done!

J&B

Man, you keep adding logs to this wonderful Fresh Fire, and each one rises the flames even higher. What an incredible piece of music, so well composed, and the harmony structure is fabulous. Love that piano work. The whole song could've done with only that one instrument, but then you incorporate so much more magic to lift this song higher and higher --much like the modulations. Love it from the Intro to the Outro, Dan.


Enjoy whatever happens!

Janice and Bud...thanks so much for your thoughts...actually the voices are indeed human...they are simply manipulated by me much like we manipulate the BiaB instruments...the program is a bit more complex I suppose?...I'm not sure how much actual AI is taking place...but who cares? right? as long as they sing like I would sing it they give me voice again...love your comments...Dan

Thanks David...the question now is "Are the voices synthetic or am I?"

This has a lovely melody. I can't decide if the second key change was a distraction or not.
IMO The synth voices sound great solo but when combined they sounded a bit stark and un-natural.
Your keys playing is very nice.
If I were a record producer and this demo landed in my lap, I'd be all like, 'Yeah, let’s make some magic happen!
Excellent music Dan.

Hi Dan, I only had a few minutes to try and catch up with a few songs. Man I'm glad I listened to this before heading off to the next task again. This is absolutely great. Your writing has once again reached perfection and the melody and mix are both fantastic as always, but man those voices! Each one sounds soooo good and the harmonies came off so very well. It's just an excellent piece of work all the way around. You've definately got this down man ... you're gifted, and thanks for using your gift in such a marvelous way.
