Red Sunday

Since I haven't had much time lately I made this song in three basic parts in three evenings. I laid down the acoustics in one evening. The second night I added additional parts and the third evening I mixed it with a few more small parts added mostly for mood. Played on acoustic guitar and bouzouki as the basis for it. All done in Sonar Platinum.

    Very nice Tim - I love the interplay going on between instruments.
    It stands up on it's own but I'd also like to hear one of your vocals on this

    biodiode- Thanks! I appreciate your comments!
     
    Daryl- Thank you. I hear you on the vocals....I need to give it another shot I guess...man I sound kinda like Eyore. I'm kinda bummed about my vocals and seeming lack of lyric ideas recently.
     
    ohgrant- Thanks for listening!

    Very organic to my ears with a journey/wandering quality and the photo that accompanies it is super.
     
    much enjoyed!

    Beautiful sounds Tim! I think you've gotten a very good acoustic recording setup; the clarity is remarkable.

    Hiya Tim,
     
    Nice work ... I usually spot new ones from you within the hour, but this one passed me by! I'm busy extending a book case I made some years ago, at the behest of the better half
     
    cheers

    This is a really sweet piece, I loved the production. You've got a great hand on that acoustic. The mix sounds really lush and wonderful. Thanks for sharing this!

    Starise,
     
    Listened to this song yesterday and again today.   The mix and performance is really well done.  The sense of "space" is evident and everything is clearly in its' place.   Very enjoyable and relaxing listen.

    This is fantastic, Tim!  loved the sound of the acoustic and the flute.  what flute was that?  did you play a real wooden flute or was that a patch or what?
     
    lovely all the way through!  mix is excellent!

    Really nice, Tim!  All of the tunes you've done in this style seem to come out well, and this is no exception.   The balance between instruments is particularly good IMO, and the vibe is dripping off it all the way through.
