[Track] Almost There
It should be up at the soundclick site in my sig, as well as Rm101's Myspace. Written in P5, acoustic recording in and mixed in SONAR.
Rapture has at least one of Franscesco's Museum presets. Some Sony loops, too.
Once again, Mary dropped some of my written lines - but what am I going to do? I can't sing.
Always interested in comments.

Wow, AT, man that is an excellent piece of work! Spacey trip-hop - I love it! The production is great. Nice filtering of the vocals - I really like that extreme nasal quality - goes very nicely with the song and her voice. Excellent singing as well - I think you mentioned once or twice that your wife does the vocals on your songs (?) - either way, she has a beautiful voice and great style. No criticisms here - great work!

Thanks cryo,
yea, my wife sings. I do all the grunt work, give her a tape for the car and she comes in for all the melodic glory. So I try to have fun with her voice. This time - pre-echo (not pre-reverb) followed by the same echo coming behind. And a really ssssllllooowww phaser.
later,

Your wife's voice reminds me of Siouxsie Sioux.  Definitely a cool little track. Very spacey. Actually, the whole track kind of reminds me a bit of some of the more spacey Siouxsie & the Banshees stuff like from the Superstition album or around that era. It has a very interesting sound that kind of pulls you along as you listen.

Yeah is really cool.... possibly my favorite track of yours. The music reminds me of OMD a bit - Architecture & Morality era - no bad thing!! Production is excellent too, along with the quite scarey (but excellent) vocals an engaging listen. Bestest, Paul

Nice work. I liked the added sound effects, and the over all feel of the track. vocals really bring everything together.

that very begining reminded me a floyd song from the Wall, I think it was "Run Like Hell" if I remember correctly. Is this your wife signing I think I read on here? Very strong and beautiful voice! What control too! Very nice track. Liked it a lot.

Alex,
cool. It kinda reminded me of old 60's psychadelia, too (tho the wall is later, I guess). I actually had a melody for the chorus in my head that went even more floyd. In fact, that is what I told my wife to try for. Yea, she does the singing for us - you wouldn't want to hear mine. Going from experimental to painful.
Thanks for the listen.
