    OK... this sounds good.... nice clean mix. No problem at all with the tone and the production. 

    My issues with it go to the music. I had a hard time catching the feel or the groove of it, I would think I had it then..... no.... hummm. For example, I never did figure out where the intro ended and the song actually began. 

     A number of wrong notes with the guitar throw it off as well. 

    I'd say.... you have the makings of a really cool tune here with a bit of arranging and structure. That "intro" had me expecting a funky little pop/jazzy number to kick into it's groove around 23 seconds in. But that didn't happen....   even the second time completely through..... I didn't catch the groove. 

    Your playing on the guitar is superb. minus the wrong/off notes. But that is an easy fix. 

    This is, of course, only my opinion.....

    I agree with Herb that there are a few notes that don't fit the scale or modality of this song.  However, everything else seems to be spot on.  Move a couple notes a half step, and you're good to go.

    All the best,

    some good stuff here, it's ambitious and you almost pull it off flawlessly, the sax/guitar duo is interesting...it seems a little self-indulgent in that there's little hook line to follow, but as background/ambient music...yes.

    Nicely produced / played - as others have said the odd note that seemed out of place, but easy enough to fix. Not sure how you intended this - felt like an extended intro in some ways rather than a completed piece. Kind of like you were just trying ideas rather than having a definite arrangement. Maybe just me.

    For some reason the verse popped right out of the intro for me.  I think it was at about :24 that it hit me.  I really liked listening to this one.

    That's some pretty sic guitar work and tone.

    There are places where notes are simply not in the scale, like right at 1:05/1:06? There's a stinker in there...

    There was a guy who used to post here who called himself Bobby that had similar styles and sounds... The woodwind/brass instrument doesn't really seem to fit (IMO).

    Hi, Eric,

    Very cool instrumental! Great playing, nice, edgy guitar tones over a well textured background, and a clean and wide mix.

    Good stuf, buddyf!
