eko - Twohearted Soul

Here is song #6 with me on the music and my good friend Harmonica Mike doing the lyrics most of it he wrote himself. IMHO he's voice is one of the better voices for blues in Sweden. We would be happy for a tap on the back or for mix-tips so just shut. /Thnx http://soundcloud.com/egon1/twoheartedsoul Eko

    I don't care for that synth, the one that's like an electronic violin? That guy sounds better when he sings in a higher register, when he's singing really low, (at the beginning?) "it's creepy..." When he's singing higher, he sounds really good (to me) Hearing that synth oscillating wildly again, and still not liking it. 

    Overall, I like the song, it's very creative.

    I like this song very much, and I agree with you about your friend's voice.  In fact, I wish you'd turn up the vocal to highlight him and his words.  You two did yourselves proud with this tune!

    All the best,
    Lynn

    Well, gave it a second listen; and I still think before the chorus (which he sings so well mind you), just that intro part, I would have him redo it either differently, or in a higher register. The rest of the song he knocks out, really.

    Harmonica Mike has a great blues voice. It would be great to hear a classic blues tune with his vocals. I like the song.

    I had a chat with Mike and you got a point about the singing on the other hand some contrast will be lost so.... And I am really positiv that you didnt like the oscillating synth - that makes a signum for the song. If you listen to it five times and the suddenly one time without it - even you will miss it (I hope)
    Thnx for your likes and dislike TheBand19

    Ok Marcus I will look after a song of him and PM you a link. Or maybe better try to convince him to be a member here.

    HM has a great voice. This could be a hit. Maybe you should ask you friend, swedens best drummer, to do the percussion-part in this track. I think that can take this track even further.
