So Long

 http://soundcloud.com/jeff-baumet/so-long Long time no see guys. I dont think I ever posted this one but I wrote it a few years ago. I've updated the mix with some more modern effects and hopefully a little more knowledge. Let me know what you think of the tune and the mix please. thanks

    Lynn, you have no idea how much I appreciate your kind words.  I have been writing for my whole life but I am just begining to get the hang of mixing and I dont really see myself as a musician so arrangements are more challenging for me.  I really felt like I had gotten this one right but I barely trust my ears with a mix anymore.  Thanks for the affirmation.

    I like the song writing I enjoyed some of the phrases very much.
    the singing is good. You've spent some time on your voice, that's nice. (you dont take a lot of chances)

    The arrangement is well put together.

    If you are a songwriter producing his ideas to get them into the real word? Nailed It!

    My best advice...write another one. Always be writing "ABW"

    and dream big

    Is that your setup in the picture? Nice!

    Thanks DJ.  That is my setup.  As far as writing goes I have been doing it for longer than I want to admit and have well over a hundred songs.  I record mostly to get the ideas down but I am also a bit of a technical geek and I love to play around at engineering.  Lastly, everytime I open my mouth in front of a mic I am taking chances.  Im really not much of a singer and got pretty lucky on this one.
