Bring back the summer!
Inspired by me longing back for the summer... I finished the song 3 weeks ago or so, but creating the video took a bit of time!! http://youtu.be/hZKss9RBOs4

This is great work - I love it! I do a lot of work myself with 3D models and animation, so I pretty much know the process you used to create the video (and its various 2D and 3D components). Really cool concept and beautiful execution.
As for the music, it's definitely professional sounding. Well written and produced. I love the downtempo ambient genre, so it's right up my alley as well. Very slick sounding, great stuff. You're a Star, Mich! :)

@Walt - many thanks!! It's great to combine music with the visuals...and I happen to love After Effects & Co, so it was a very enjoyable experience. Less enjoyable was the fact that just prior to publishing I noticed I had a spelling mistake...had to re-render the video in AE...that took a bit! Started listening to your soundcloud stuff...sounds lovely so far!! Very good guitar playing!
@Rimshot - thanks!

Seize The Day!!! I love the Audio/Visual integration of this song. I'm not a huge fan of Caribbean type music. I mean I love the icons like Marley, Tosh, Black Uhuru, etc.. But this was very enjoyable. The bass line was great and I loved the little riff at the very end. Thanks for sharing!

cool video... the music sounded good too.
Love me some summer.... not really hot... but 80's works for me, and low humidity.

I love the bounce this song has. The video works very well with the music, and the arrangement and mix are top notch. Bravo!

@guitarhacker - thanks! 80s to 90s works for me (although I have to admit, I had to do a quick Fahrenheit to Celsius check!)
@Lynn - thanks Lynn! Glad you liked it. I checked out your "Rivers of the Sky"...very touching and executed very well (both video and song).

Nice one. It has that nice laid back reggae-ish sound and you have a cool video going on as well. Very creative indeed. I concur with your sentiment --- bring back summer, now. I hate it when it is noon time and the sun is hanging low in the sky.

Thanks Daniel & Freddy! I know what you mean with the low hanging sun....I was walking outside today and it felt almost like the sun was setting at 14:30!! Then again, at least there was sun and there was a blue sky!
